I've been sort of MIA recently; things have been crazy with the end-of-the-year stress and things to do.  Finals actually weren't that crazy this year, but I've had a lot on my mind. I'm officially done with school; the Senior/Junior fashion show ended a few hours ago. I didn't have anything in the show, obviously, but all the fashion students have ( Read more... )

Does it make me horribly unpatriotic that I was more excited about the new episode of Doctor Who than I was about hearing Bin Laden karked it?

I'm not mad the guy's dead or anything, but I'm not jumpy for joy either.  I'm just kind of like, oh, okay. Took us long enough.

I've been to the WTC memorial in DC. And yet, not since I was ten and 9/11 was ( Read more... )

Missed class yesterday. Really didn't need to; that teacher won't let us turn in assignments from missed classes unless we get a doctor's note/proof of whatever caused us to miss class.  The week before I was sick and just barely managed to claw my way to class to turn in my assignment, and then went home and slept all day Monday and Tuesday.

Haven't posted much lately.  I've been really busy and then my computer crashed on me.  It seems to be running fine now, and I'm just praying that if it does crash again that it will wait until AFTER I turn in my term paper on Thursday.  For a few days it wouldn't start up, and I kept having to run the Startup Repair and System Restore, and then ( Read more... )

Alonso had his first vet visit today.  He is officially healthy and happy and I am doing a great job as a bunny mommy.  He's also apparently a bit big for a dwarf--4.2lbs.  Dwarfs are usually more like 2lbs.  But he's still small as far as rabbits go, and since he's not purebread dwarf he's not going to be as tiny as they'd be.

He's grown so much ( Read more... )

Je devrais voir plus des films Francais, parce que apres je veux parler seulment en Francais.

I said I need to watch more French films, because afterwards I only want to speak in French.

I just finished watching Amelie, which may make it to my list of favorite movies.  It wasn't quite as raunchy as I was expecting for an R-rated French film, though ( Read more... )

The world is awash in sunshine.

It filters in through every fugitive crack through which the wintry drafts once blew and illuminates the tired souls who hide within.  It seeps into my skin and melts away the icy mask winter has glazed upon it.  It awakens life in me long dormant and I bloom with the big pear trees.
All the world is rococo today, and ( Read more... )

Yesterday evening, as I was finishing up my Monday morning homework I started thinking about everything I need to do this week, and it's a lot this week, and for the first time in my memory I was thinking about it as "This is something I've got to do" not, "OMG I've got to get this done, how is there going to be enough time to do all this???"

....is ( Read more... )

I wish this was a late April Fools Day prank, but it's all true, and I have photographic evidence.

So late yesterday afternoon I decided to go do a little shopping to unwind and reward myself for making it a whole week without having a nervous breakdown, and pick up a couple of things I really wanted to get the last time I was there but didn't.  It ( Read more... )
