Class = cancelled. Again. That's cool and all. I'm not really too torn up about it, although today I actually wouldn't have minded going in. I'm mostly just dreading the second half of the semester, when there's not going to be anymore snow and I'll actually have to get out of bed on a regular basis. That will be an unhappy period in Emily's life.

So I'm trying to do something every day, to avoid getting stuck in the school-work-stress rut. Today's thing didn't so much happen. Blame sleep deprivation induced lack of motivation. But a happy twist in the night? Torrential down pour leads to dancing in the rain, leads to my first ever game of beer pong, played with my upstairs neighbors and ( Read more... )

I  watched Sister Act yesterday, and I had forgotten how much I love that movie.

Also, I'm excited to be healthy again, after fighting for two weeks through the plague, and have officially taken my first college chemistry test---which I *crosses fingers* didn't flunk(???)

Hey guys, 
Shameless plug: watch my video, and I'll love you forevah! I like to think it's somewhat amusing, and if nothing else, it's not even 2 minutes, so I know you can endure it...

I have lost all desire to complete this semester.  There's only 6 days left, but I just don't want to deal with it anymore.  I still have to pull together our craptastic group project; write my two Japanese Lit papers--one of which I have no idea what to write about, the other of which is incredibly superficial and not even worth writing/reading; ( Read more... )

So I know about 5 people who've had/will have had their wisdom teeth out in a two week time period...me included. I got mine out yesterday, and it was a little anti-climatic. I'd talked to everyone about it before hand, and everyone was talking about how bad recovery would be, but I already had my first real meal last night...Not even 12 hours ( Read more... )

So this weekend I went to Sprachwochenende--basically a German speaking retreat out in TN, with students from 3 different colleges.  It turned out to be pretty awesome, and I got to know a lot of people from ASU that I haven't had a chance to really talk to. All in all, it was a satisfying weekend, and I'm glad to have started a new set of ( Read more... )

My paper on acting on assumptions before we have the big picture:

Fj;foijfaro;I jergj I don’t know what I’m writing about. War sucks. I don’t want to die. I assume no one else does either. So by killing them, are we not going against their free will? Aha! Touche! You can’t go around saying you’re giving people freedom if they aren’t free to live ( Read more... )

YES!!!! I finally have the RENT soundtrack! ^_^

If any of you ever decide to hike the Appalachian Trail, and get to a section in Tennessee called Pisgah, you better appreciate me. ^_^.We just spent the day building a new trail out there so people won't have to Slip'n Slide down the muddy hill. It was weird hacking down vegetation and small trees for the sake of the trail. All backwards thinking ( Read more... )
