Alright, so in the midst of studying for finals, I tried to relieving myself from insanity by geeking out on computer for a couple hours. You know when the pressure's high and you've got a load of papers to study and you think, "Well, maybe I'll feel more up to studying after an episode of a TV show ( Read more... )

I graciously lent my camera to my brother for his trip to Korea and he comes back with it broken and completely unable to take pictures. I'm not really sure if it's fixable...but I miss my camera! My journal been filled with just text for so long and I hate when I see a picture perfect moment and can't even capture it. Pooh ( Read more... )

Okay, sleeping in and lounging around is nice and all but I cannot stand being cooped up in my house all day. I've been doing SAT sections all day (Yeah, I know it's Christmas) but I haven't heard the end of college lectures and discussions for about oh, maybe my whole life, so I might as well "use" my time wisely ( Read more... )

Wow. It. is. cold ( Read more... )

So the other day I was shopping at Walmart, flipping through a copy of The Tales of Beedle and the Bard (which I don't know if I'll buy because it seems really like a children's book) and this random lady comes up to me and says "Hi" like she wants to start a conversation ( Read more... )

I was at Borders the other day looking for a book. I ended up staring at shelves and shelves of beautiful book covers and interesting titles that just went on and on. I decided there was too much to read and too little time. So, instead of judging a book by its cover, I'm going to ask you guys -- if you'd be so kind ( Read more... )

I don't know what Augustana meant exactly by "California's burning, burning to the ground" but as of today, it's exactly right. It came completely unexpected. I mean, I had heard about little fires here and there but it wasn't on the scale like last years huge brushfires. I should have realized though--yesterday I saw a huge smoke cloud in the ( Read more... )

It's been raining here the past couple days and I love it. The leaves on my street start to change colors and get fall and get all crackly and pretty. I'm actually pretty excited for it to start getting colder because this Indian Summer has really not been fun at all. We get way too much heat in California. And I know I complain a lot about the ( Read more... )

Ever have those strange, nightmarish dreams during intense naps? I had one of those today and woke up thinking "Wow, I'm glad my life isn't like that." Which says a lot since I like to complain all the time about how sucky my life is currently.

If it takes an odd dream to get you to stop and be thankful for your life, than so be it.

I think I am the most absent-minded person ever. Maybe it's cause I'm careless or being stupid, but I keep losing track of things and I don't know why! I misplaced my prescription glasses the one time I decide to wear them the whole day. You woulda thought that putting them on and off would have increased the chances of losing them but no. I took ( Read more... )
