I love sitting inside in the middle of paradise, unable to go outside because I have to write an essay about Canadian Romanticism. I am also unable to access any of the information I actually need for said essay. Addendum to "What University Has Taught Me": All the research you need for something will be just out of your grasp, no matter what the ( Read more... )

Heading out to Quebec for some beautiful pow skiing and... stuff. Gotta write papers all while I'm out there too. I guess I can brainstorm whilst navigating the bumps.

Home. Tired. Aced my history midterm. Very pleased. Breck can be summed up in these words: artichoke pizza, double black diamonds, bruises the size of plums, boot bags lost in Denver, nervous breakdowns, cheerios in the carpet, the Last Chance parking lot at Arapahoe Basin, the Continental Divide, and mountains.

Breckenridge is lovely. It's been snowing since we got here. Bliss! Of course, the altitude change has kept me gasping for air and dehydrated for the entirety, but that'll pass. Hopefully. My eyes also burn, and I have a wonderful goggle tan ( Read more... )

The weather's been crazy here. We got around three inches of really heavy, wet snow a few days ago and it's only half-melted now. This is all leading up to my last ski day of the season at Jay, which was really amazing. It was just me and my father, driving about and skiing all the glades and bump runs. Oh, glorious glades and bump runs. I don ( Read more... )

I am wearing beetle wingcase earrings and they make me sound like an angry rattlesnake. This is good. (Julia is all 'ohmygod they killed all those beetles to make your stupid earrings D: D:' and all I can say in reply is 'um, yeah. :D aren't they sparkly?' because I'm horrible. Horrible ( Read more... )

Do you trust my taste in music? Pick a number between 1 and 1471 and I'll find the corresponding song in my collection playlist. I'll upload it for you (and everyone else reading this entry) to grab. [Optional: when you've gotten a song from me, go post this meme in your own journal, so I can grab a random song from you.]

I think my jester hat attracts lost French people. I keep getting assaulted for directions, which I usually cannot give, as I am hopeless at articulating anything in French. It's ordeal enough to figure out what they're asking me. Stupid ( Read more... )
