Me, Ryan and Audrey were all in a chat room on AIM tonight ( Read more... )

Junior college. Weird to be in classes of like, 20 people. Where the lady in the front row is ALLOWED to ask a million specific personal questions, because it is small and intimate. And where people just share stories that may or may not be relevant to the class because sharing is encouraged ( Read more... )

Listening to Incubus right now. I am beyond tired! Took my last midterm of the quarter. Have a final tomorrow, but I am just too exhausted to start studying for that now ( Read more... )

A night for a tank top and jeans. I looked up and saw how clear the sky was, and realized how rarely I just look up. As I walked back to my apartment, I noted that this ( Read more... )

I just took the coldest shower of my entire life. I can't remember being this freezing before. They've been working on the water in my complex all week. Whoo... getting out of the shower never felt so warm and inviting ( Read more... )

Ok, so CRAZY!!! I won some drawing I'd randomly entered myself in online, and I get 70 bucks and a vacation package for 4 days to a place of my choice (Honolulu, Orlando, La Jolla, Vegas)!!! And it's like, legit. WHOOOOAAAAAAAA!!! Man, what a turnaround from yesterday.

God is good. He gives and takes away.

Last night was elections for ADX, and I am now the new sorority President for next year!!!!! I won't ever forget standing in front of these girls that have come to be so important to me... giving my little speech, and realizing that I was in a moment that I had anticipated for years. It was a unique moment ( Read more... )

So today I have been extraordinarily lazy and missed two classes. Shame! Spring quarter's academic apathy has wedged its jaws around my initiative. However, I have one last chance to redeem myself today, and I will go to lab! Despite the sun, and the chirping birds, and the spongy green grass on the quad . . .
