What, oh, what can I say about this apartment?  I wish I didn't have to; just wish these walls could talk.  Because if they could they would tell stories of love and lust, and how we all learned the difference between those words.  They'd tell about first experiences and last words; of old friends and new bonds.  These walls would tell the stories ( Read more... )

Ahhhh work.  I totally miss being at Botto’s.  Is that bad?  Am I the only person alive that loves working with customers at a food place?  I love the hustle and bustle that goes with the job.  I love messing with the chefs and I love working with Mrs. Botto even more.  I’m a nut job.  I really am going to miss that place when I finally get a real ( Read more... )

So I was listening to some random song the other day and it suddenly reminded me of a past relationship.  So I decided to go through my iTunes play list and pick out songs that said something about all of my past relationships.  Well that didn’t work out too well, but I did find a nice handful of songs that matched relationships.

Junior year I ( Read more... )

- Prof. Marcus: “Everything wrong with America can be found in Walmart.”
- Prof. Marcus: “Tell me that’s not extremely ironic? The People’s Democratic Republic of Korea. The country doesn’t belong to the people, it’s not a republic or democratic state, and it’s only half of Korea.”

I can’t not care because I’ve learned too much.

I’ve learned that one day you can be at the doctor’s office with a family member, thinking everything is alright. And the next day you’re sitting in a waiting room waiting to see that family member, only to walk into the room and see wires and tubes sticking out from everywhere.

I’ve learned that you ( Read more... )

Found in a bulletin:

"Maybe, in our haste to criticize the things that make our lives uncomfortable, or painful, or irritating, we lose sight of what makes our lives beautiful.

We forget that life is not about the teachers who dislike you, the people who are catty, the papers you haven't written, and any other myriad worries and concerns you may ( Read more... )

Well well well … more updates. Tuesday night I sat around pissed off at what was happening. Nothing to do before break started. Can we say LAME?! But whatever. And then when I think life is going to start going in slow motion, a knock comes from the door. DAN!!! Yes, Dan the Man SAVES the day again. In with him comes his cousin, two girls, and two ( Read more... )

I really should be doing work for school; or better yet, studying for one of my two tests for tomorrow.  But I can’t concentrate.  Everything is going hay-wire lately and I don’t know how to fix anything.  Thinking deeply about issues is starting to become a regular issue for me.  I miss being able to get up and not worry about what will happen ( Read more... )

For the longest time I've been doubting myself as a person and then everything got cleared up for me at lunch with my grandmother.  She admires my strength.  It's hard dealing with a surgery like that.  And it's even harder to paste a smile on your face when everyone is showing pity to you.  She told me a little of what the family experienced when ( Read more... )
