sertraline is my new best friend
So my first semester of college is almost over and many things have happened, and none of it seemed worth recording. I have been on Zoloft for almost a month now. My appetite is dead and I survive on bagels and I do believe I may get only one A this semester. Yet I am happy. Clearly the meds are kicking in. May the siren call of high rooftops and ( Read more... ) -
since summer is almost over...
Every summer vacation, if I don't have something time-consuming and difficult to do, I start quietly decomposing. The last two summers I was looking after autistic kids, but this summer I was languishing in Korea, crawling out of my room for meals. I've been a bit busier this week, feel much better, and regret neglecting my journal, since I only ( Read more... ) -
ahoy-hoy!
I'm going to Wash U! Washington University in St. Louis, that is. In cold cold Missouri, but it will all right because I'll shop for boots this summer and Wash U is a great school for pre-meds. I'm well pleased with my future right now. I mailed in my enrollment and housing application today, wherein I suffered a fit of optimism and signed up for a ( Read more... ) -
way-hey!

swore i wouldn't, but went to see watchmen
My absolute favorite part about this movie was the soundtrack. Looking at Wiki's Watchmen soundtrack list, I'm surprised--I don't remember half of these songs. I honestly didn't notice any My Chemical Romance moments, and I didn't hear any Janis, either. Others I remember very well. All Along the Watchtower and The Times They Are A-Changin' were so ( Read more... ) -
my eyes hurt from strain
Oh, I've been having so much fun not doing work! I finished reading Let Dai and watched something like six hours of DVDs today ( Read more... ) -
pro-cras-ti-nate
I am very bummed about my Lit class. We're substituting Frankenstein for Dracula because the teacher thinks Dr. Frankenstein is "too whiny." We're flying through Crime and Punishment in just three weeks with absolutely no class discussion. And apparently nobody in my class likes John Irving. Of course, none of this matters, because I'm spending ( Read more... ) -
oh, darling high school drama
Facebook status updates are coy creatures, but I do believe that my best friend just got deferred by Yale. I've been hearing about how her sister loves Yale, how the architecture is so beautiful, the student body size just perfect and statistically not as depressed as Harvard students according to the Harvard Crimson, etc. I'm actually scared to ( Read more... ) -
wtf
My Safe--the place where I keep important files, i.e. the copy of my green card that I want to turn in tomorrow to UT Austin--has disappeared. It used to sit quietly in My Docs, available when I needed said important documents. It's not that I can't open it, or that its contents are missing. It's flat-out gone. Online troubleshooters are not ( Read more... ) -
by the way, my town is the richest place in the US or something
Which means that local places for wasting money on pointless crap, like Starbucks, are still thriving. I stepped into a Starbucks for the first time in my life today to do a Rice interview. My interviewer and I both arrived at the same time, about 15 minutes early, so I didn't have to sit around and feel guilty about not ordering anything. Screw ( Read more... )
