It seems unreal that this is my last undergraduate year here at King's. I don't know if I'll ever go back to school, either, which is an even stranger thought. I honestly love learning and often do enjoy school, but I think it's this format of learning that makes me genuinely question whether I will ever pursue a master's degree later in life.

I'm in my apartment, sneakily piggybacking on a neighbor's wifi. I know his name (because I saw his limewire shared list...with the names of all his naughty downloads!) but I don't know who he is. Thank you, Ryan, for not requiring a password on your internet connection ( Read more... )

Oh, the ups and downs of the apartment chronicles, reported via LJ. After finding a place in East Harlem, to resigning myself back to the dorms, to possibly looking for a place with my sister's friend, followed by the chaos of abandonment after a hard week of searching -a light appeared at the end of the dark, lonely, frustrating tunnel ( Read more... )

I was driving home from work today (covering for my Mom at Handi-lift) and I found yet another reason to control my occasional road rage. A lot of drivers in good ol' NJ have serious driving-while-infuriated problems, and often let their neighbor's slightlest mistake anger them to the point of ugliness. I was on 19, merging to the left in an ( Read more... )

I'm tired of looking for a place. It drains me to have too many situations undecided at one time, so I'm pretty sure I'm going back to the dorms. I can make the decision rather easily and quickly, and it's really not such a bad situation after all. I'm glad I have the option of living there. Now all I need to do is run it by my dad and get his ( Read more... )

This summer has started off busy, with a slight deviation from my plan. I'm typing this from Handi-Lift, if that gives you any idea of how unexpected this week has been. Last month, I thought I would be up in East Harlem this month, tidying and decorating a lovely 2 bedroom (with a washer and dryer) to make a home for myself. I thought I would ( Read more... )

I'm in NJ. I'm not sure if it's home or not, but I'm here at my parent's house now. Hello, everyone.

Okay, one final and one paper to go. I think I'm going to make it without collapsing from exhaustion and being taken to the hospital, losing my sanity and jumping off the ESB thinking I'm in the Matrix, having a homicidal episode of attacking those who can't shut up in the library, or antagonizing a cop in a moment of extreme mental stress and ( Read more... )

I'm having a horribly busy and stressful week with exams and papers (thank the Good Lord for merciful professors who extend deadlines!), but this Saturday will be amazing ( Read more... )

Now I know why the librarian taped a whole bunch of "No eating in the library" signs to the tables. Sitting with people eating smelly food in the library is pretty gross. Though, I think it was mostly for cleanliness reasons, it is also just unpleasant ( Read more... )
