Last week Chris and I helped pack up the rest of Calvin's stuff and then went with him down to Brooklyn to help him unload. Now that he's officially moved out, it just goes to show that I've been back living at home for almost ten months now and have less of a clue than ever as to how I'm going to become fully actualized. I've been reading "What ( Read more... )

Soooooo graduation! Graduation happened on Saturday. It was crazy. Mayor Booker of Newark spoke, and my whole family said he's pro'lly gonna run for President, as soon as he's done fixing Newark. He was so smart and so well-spoken and just very very cool. And so after that I packed up, with the supreme help of The Fam, and said goodbye to everyone ( Read more... )

Yesterday was, potentially, the last three academic classes I'll ever take...in that I have an acting class today, and another on Monday. But still. Pretty crazy ( Read more... )

Today, Alex gave me a shout-out on Drew Radio after playing a Replacements song I had never heard. That was pretty cool. Also, on Fox News today (I know, I know) they spent a full minutes talking about Rickrolling. I don't know why it was there, but I am so glad that I caught that. Oh man, Rickrolling. What would I do without you? (I've never ( Read more... )

Last night was opening night for The Becca Set--ie "The Secrets of Aiden Brooks" and "Merrily, Merrily, Merrily" by one Becca Schlossberg. If you go to Drew, you really need to see it because they're really exceptional plays. I really enjoyed them, because they were just incredibly intelligent and well-written, but I kept looking at the couples in ( Read more... )

You know what's really weird? That Giuliani was the presumed front-runner for so long last year, and to a lesser extent Romney was as well. Giuliani, especially, seems almost unimaginable as the One To Beat. I have to say, though, I am really glad that I don't need to deal with Romney any more, and as he left, he gave the best example as to why ( Read more... )

R.I.P. Heath Ledger. I only ever saw him in 10 Things I Hate About You, Brokeback Mountain and The Patriot, but he was definitely a talented guy (I haven't seen Brokeback for a while, but he said almost nothing in it, yet said it incredibly well), and I was excited when I found out he was cast as the Joker--and am still excited to see The Dark ( Read more... )

Notes from today

--I had my Poli Sci final. I think it went okay. I mean...I answered most of the questions. That's good, right?

--I went into the city to see Juno with Courtney. It as beautiful. Beau. Ti. Ful. Ellen Page and Michael Cera are so much cooler than I'll ever be. For real. It was good times over all. Courtney wins ( Read more... )

I just finished (at this point a few hours ago (like 4 Monday afternoon) rereading The Perks of Being a Wallflower(after starting it around 3 Sunday afternoon). I don't think I had read it for a good year or so. It's just...truly beautiful and devastating. I always think of it as a book I can really relate to, despite one of the key themes of the ( Read more... )
