I’m alive. I promise. This weekend, after staying up for 24 hours on Friday (not. ok.), I started the week feeling like the three weeks I had left of Institute would be ENDLESS. ENDLESS I tell you!
However, after getting the afternoon off yesterday (Happy TFA Day!), which then allowed me to get four hours of [...]

There are 8,000 topics I keep meaning to blog about, but my sad dying iBook combined with my apparent inability to climb stairs to use my parent’s computer have combined to create an almost insurmountable obsacle to my blogging. Thus, I bring you a list of things I’ve been spending a lot of my time [...]

Being at home does present some perks – one of which is access to my parent’s much newer, much faster, must more iSight-camera-equipped iMac, which allowed me to participate in the second 20SB Vlog Day! Enjoy! (Oh, and pay no attention to my hair…it looks much curlier and nicer and less “I just rolled out of [...]

In an attempt to counteract my general laziness of late, I’m going to try to cram the rest of my Australia trip into one post, or I fear it will never be recorded for posterity. This is going to be epic. Don’t say you weren’t warned.
(To read my first two recaps click on over to [...]

I’m sad to admit that this past week I’ve been a bit of a hermit: I haven’t really been online. I’ve only left the house for big outings twice, and I’ve been holed up in my room for hours a day. The cause: Twilight and nothing but Twilight.
Yes, in the last week and a half, [...]

I promise the next installment of my trip recap is coming. I’ve been working on one, but I get too detailed, then I get nostalgic, then I get busy cooking, and it somehow gets put on the metaphorical back burner behind making 50 won tons for dinner.
I do have other things to report in my [...]

I don’t usually do weekend recaps, but this one was pretty eventful, so maybe I’ll start.
Friday I slept in til noon, because I’m lazy and because it’s my only sleep-in day. I made mself some french toast, so obviously, the weekend was off to a winning start. I hung around in my apartment, working on [...]

I knew the moment that the flamboyant boy two rows behind me yelled “WHAT TEAM!?” and everyone around him answered with a resounding “WILDCATS! GET YOUR HEAD IN THE GAME!” that I had made a smart decision: to travel downtown at 11:30PM on a Thursday night to take in what could possibly be the third [...]

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 [...]

Tonight I finally gave in and joined the masses fandango-ing tickets to see The Dark Knight. Unfortunately, I didn’t enjoy it as much as I would have liked, especially for how good it was, because I also enjoyed a small (which was for some reason larger than my face) diet coke during the 45 minutes of previews.
Thus, about 45 [...]
