Have you ever been so tired you couldn't see?

Random fact of the day: there's nothing better than cashmere lined leather gloves for keeping your hands warm while you bike.

So a couple of months ago, on a German-avoiding whim, I decided to enter all the online contests for every magazine I could think of. That ended up being all of three magazines- Marie Claire, Cosmo, and Glamour. My mom would have been proud, she faithfully enters dozens of contests on a daily basis (and enters me for them as well, bless her heart ( Read more... )

Hating Bush at the moment for the whole stem cell debacle. Stupid, selfish little man. It's enough to make me ~almost~ wish one of his children was dying of leukemia or Alpers or some other debilitating disease. But I wouldn't wish that on anyone. And it's not their fault they're related to such an asshole ( Read more... )

My feet are killing me. After our first German class, which was short, Veronica, Julie, and I went out for dinner at the Border Cafe. I had a blackened salmon caesar salad (true to my name), and a couple of glasses of sangria. After we ate Tim and a couple of his friends came by as well, and we sat and talked for a couple of hours. Afterwards I ( Read more... )

Bonjour from Quebec! This is the first time I've updated in Canada, though I have an earlier entry typed up that I need to post. We're on day 5 of our Canada trip. My parents are visiting me at the moment, and after a day in Boston we drove to Montreal (which took us about 10 hours, with all the stops). We took a tour of Montreal the next day, ( Read more... )

My paper is due in about 7 hours, and it's going to take me that long to finish, so no nap for me. I'll be happy when I don't have to look at my keyboard again for a while (though since I have a ( Read more... )

It's 1:30pm on sunday, and I'm still working on my Luke exegesis. As I expected, the majority of the time is being spent editing it down and trying to fit it into the allotted length. Luckily it can be 10 point font. I still have a lot I need to say, and everything I've said is quite important. I hate these stupid short papers, with a page ( Read more... )

I'm about to start writing my exegesis of Luke 4:16-30. After that I need to write another essay. These two essays are the take-home portion of my Intro to the New Testament final. It's due on monday and will be about 8 pages long. I think shorter essays are in many ways harder than longer essays, it's so hard to get everything you need/want to ( Read more... )
