I don't understand how Dr. Pangloss could truly believe that everything is for the best, nor that Candide was naive enough to follow in that belief. That isn't optimism, it's stupidity pure and simple. But maybe, just maybe, a little stupidity is what we all need ( Read more... )

So the semester is coming to an end. I cannot wait for the summer months. Sleep. Good meals. People I don't normally associate with. Yes!

It's going to be weird moving back to Tarpon. Oh well. Gotta spend time with the people who are leaving. Damn military is getting everyone. lol. Well what can you do really. This Is war....

So school is going well. I'd almost all but forgotten about this place. Been rather busy. Today is my one year anniversary with Ian. It's funny, it doesn't seem that long ago. Time doesn't seem to drag on when I'm with him, which I suppose is a good thing. I'm coming home thursday night, and we're gonna hang out on friday which should be nice ( Read more... )

Well Christmas came and went. It was nice, gave out the presents I bought (the first time I really went shopping for parents and family alone). Got a new slim camera which I intend to put to good use, gift cards to Barnes and Noble (A.K.A. my personal heaven), as well as the overly priced starbucks. Got toe socks, and Bill Clinton's autobiography ( Read more... )

Finals are over and I get my final grades tonight. Should be interesting. I've been so tired lately, mentally and physically. It's funny, but I'm still tense, my body still runs on its old schedule. Up at 3, up at 7. Its getting slightly better ( Read more... )

Got a headache the size of a mountain. Today marks the beginning of family weekend. My parents are coming up which should be okay. We'll see. College is stressful. Apparently I put alot of pressure on myself?? Someone told me that and i was like...no...i just want to do well. But whatever. I guess that's the general consensus. I figure im going ( Read more... )

So I got an 88% on that Japanese quiz I studied my ass off for. Now I truly understand why those poor japanese students commit suicide so often. I would to. It is vicious. Japanese has taken over my life. All my other classes have taken a back seat and I'm flying by the seat of my pants. Good thing I'm not looking down ( Read more... )

So I made some friends today that live in Dunedin. Was really cool. Went to dinner. Went to walmart. Got two posters: fairy and something else (not sure how to describe it). Went to the arcade with Ladina before that. Did DDR. Failed miserably but she did too so it was good. Umm. Walked home in dark. Wasn't attacked. Started developing ( Read more... )

So I'm back at the dorm. Huge fights with my mother. To be expected. She doesn't exactly share my enthusiasm for books and learning. My room is cramped but my room. Roomates are nervy but have yet to really show their faces (aside from marking their territory and trying to order me around----HAH). Tomorrow is a day for exploring. Right now is a ( Read more... )
