I listened to a radio broadcast discussing gender differences in education (whether gender performance in math & science is affected by social or biological issues) and there was actually a study done suggesting that women go through cycles of smarts up to par with their menstral cycles. That's right - when estrogen levels are low, we girls can ( Read more... )

I really want to cry about it too. Of my many roommates, the dumbest two declared they were having a HUGE Halloween party last night and after a discussion, the rest of us decided it was ok as long as they cleaned everything up. Since Tessa, Lucy, Joe & I don't really like Doug & Eme's friends, we all made a deal to NOT be at home last night ( Read more... )

I am 21 now. As Laura put it with my favorite adjective: that is neat. My party went sorta well i guess, though I am never having one again. Most everyone I've spoken to said they had a great time, but I had about 3 breakdowns while cleaning my house prior to the evening. I was really worried no one would come when 5 of my close guy friends ( Read more... )

Gaaah. So I sold my flute on ebay and the buyer shipped a money order to my house in Glen Haven (I forgot to change the shipping address) and my mom OPENED MY MAIL, and just called me, infuriated that I had sold it. It was mine! I haven't played it in 6 and a half years! I don't even remember how to play, nor will I ever (in the absence of some ( Read more... )

so it's been about 200 days since i had anything decent to say, but my life is starting to get interesting again lately. I signed a lease today. It is perhaps the bravest thing I've ever done. I'm always complaining about how i need to meet people & make more friends outside the guys & few girls I bonded with in the dorms my freshman year, so ( Read more... )

Over. I too, am so exhausted. I went to court at 8 am & the judge reduced my "failure to obey turn sign" 3 point ticket to a "Defective headlight" 1-point ticket. I did not have a defective headlight, but i guess this is the way things are run. The system seems corrupt, somehow. Oh well. I pleaded the "I'm poor, please help me" college kid ( Read more... )

Fuck. Finals. Awesome that i've been copying physics homework for two months and am completely and utterly screwed. Awesome that my court date (a ticket for doing a God damn u-turn from 28th onto the frontage road) just happens to be during my physics review. Sweet. Awesome that my mom hates me for about 10 zillion reasons & hung up on me today ( Read more... )

So it was a gorgeous day & it totally pissed me off sitting in class rotting away all afternoon. I bought a new green skirt & sure did wear it, but my legs never saw the sun & the day still totally kicked my ass ( Read more... )

Crazy shit, kids. I went to this interview a while back in a scary room with 7 people who shot nasty questions at me. I must have played it cool, cause I just found out that starting May 31st, I will be the newest research assistant for, get this, NASA! Well, actually it is for the Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics (LASP) down ( Read more... )

De Veras. Necessitolo ahora. Por favor! It's fun pretending I remember spanish. (Clearly, not so much). Anyhow, I'm a space case these days ( Read more... )
