It's coming down to nothing more than apathy.
Well here we are again. It's not even the 11th Hour, it's like...the 23rd Hour. In other words, flagrantly late in the grand scheme of things and right. There. Andohmygodnotgoingtomakeit but shutupandjustkeepgoing. Trying to channel that time in undergrad when I wrote an 8-page paper in like an hour and a half. That was some crazy shit. This one ( Read more... ) -
Here come the heat...Nuclear Summer
Hello again, interwebs.
Meg and Cols and Sarah tagged me, so I should really do it.
The rules: Each person tagged gives 7 random facts about themselves. Those tagged need to write in their blogs the 7 facts, as well as the rules of the game. You need to tag 7 others and list their names on your blog.1. I'm hard-pressed to identify what I consider ( Read more... ) -
Please don't confront me with my failures; I had not forgotten them
Not enough hours in the day. Gah. A lot of frantic work left to do and it's becoming increasingly apparent that I'm not going to finish in time. Right now I'm putting as much effort into not allowing myself to just give up as I am actually doing the writing. At the very least I'll have a nice start to my thesis for hard work this summer. Ugh I ( Read more... ) -
She's overboard, she's self-assured. Oh no I know, a dirty word.
You need to go buy Paul Anka's "Rock Swings" right now. The most glorious covers of...well, some of your favorite songs. Evar. Seriously. His cover of "Smells Like Teen Spirit"? Perfection.
...I don't really have anything else to update about. -
was I fool to think at all?
For posterity and hilarity's sake, I give you my April Fool's Day joke that I was trying to play on Suzanne (one of the PhDs) but ended up playing on Em, because she never listens. And is incredibly gullible. But we love her anyway.

What fresh Hell is this?
I feel like I've stepped into a parallel universe, in which everyone flips the fuck out over stupid and fairly inconsequential in-class group presentations. Seriously. WTF, first years? Why you gotta be so high-strung? Seriously, a member of my group called me at 9:17 this morning to see if we were going to coordinate what we were going to wear ( Read more... ) -
the D and the A and the M and the N and the A and the T and the I-O-N
Hello again. Quick update to prove I'm still kickin...
Academia- classes blow, but midterms are over. I still have 3 term papers, 2 regular-type papers, a group presentation, an individual presentation, and about 6 reflection papers left to write.
Thesis- new topic and advisor, old advisor does not know, and neither does the guy who's going to sign ( Read more... ) -
"Our talents are wasted here." "That's it! Off to the IT department we go!"
Friday was a good day. Except for all that classroom observer reliabilty retraining bullshit.
Hung out with folks from the office in the evening and it was a total blast. Emily, Boss Genevieve, Gise, Wale and I went to a free concert at BAM featuring the Hungry March Band. After a delightful ride on the Q across the East River, we hung out in the ( Read more... ) -
23 and so tired of life
Not being overly morbid, just realized that I'm almost not 23 anymore and all those great song lyrics are going to waste.
/could I have been anyone other than me?

I'm 23 now but will I live to see 24? The way things is goin I don't know.
So I just made some pretty OCD calendars with a breakdown of when all my assignments are due this semester, as well as a nice checklist for said assignments. If I live through this semester and stay out of Bellevue, I'll be surprised. Just going on record with that now.
Most of my classes seem OK; let's take a brief look and then I need to get ( Read more... )
