Thankful

Instead of being all negative and whiney, I’m going to try to follow some of the excellent advice you guys left me and be postive and happy about all the things that are going well, because, really? My life is going pretty well.
Well, I will pause for a brief moment of bitchery….The DMV can [...]

My 22nd Year

My 22nd year was, in the truest sense, a life-changing year. My life right now looks almost nothing like my life did last year:
Last year, I was in the midst of high school-like drama. This year, I’m teaching high schoolers. Last year, I was drowning in homework. This year, I’m the one giving it. Last [...]

For the moment…

First of all, thanks for the encouragement on my last (majorly downer) post. Last week was especially rough, and the weekend was not much better. It included breaking out in a stress rash, driving to the doctor to find it closed, driving to my school to find my key didn’t work, and driving home sobbing [...]

So this is what “busy” feels like

My schedule today: 
9:30 to 10:30 – Sit in Starbucks “observing” people (mildly awkwardly) for Acting class
10:30 – 10:45 – Run to Union to set up Link table to advertise for Bay State auditions. (There is a row of tables at the entrance to our student union that student groups rent out to promote their goings on. [...]

Friends, Work, Class…Blogging?

I’ve learned in the past two weeks that I am bad at being busy and blogging. I’ve been so caught up in getting back into the swing of having an actual life in all senses: a social life, a school life, a work life. I can never say no to things, and thus, I have [...]

Talking ’bout my Generation

Some (read: none) of you may remember the girl who sat directly in front of me in my political science class last session, who I oh so lovingly wanted to “punch in the face.”  Since I started my new class four weeks ago, I have rarely thought of her, thinking her a thing of the past, [...]

Loving and Hating…but mostly hating.

Loving: My Saturday night spent out on the town with my uncle. We started at an art opening, where I got to drink free alcohol (delicious Pinot Grigio) that wasn’t in red or plastic (or both) cup and rename art work with one of my favorite family members. Uncle D then took me to Rocca in the [...]

Blog Paralysis

I’ve been feeling like I have nothing to write about lately. Well, first, I had no computer access, then my days began to consist of nothing but errand running and apartment cleaning. Not the stuff of inspirational blog postings.
To catch everyone up: This past weekend, I finally moved back to Boston, spending the weekend with [...]

NPR Listening, Orthotics Wearing Old Woman

I’ve recently decided that I am slowly turning into a 76 year old woman.
About four days ago I was walking home, because I walk everywhere, when I suddenly got an intense pain in my foot. It wasn’t like something was breaking or bruised. The closest thing I can think of is when I had [...]
