An update for the new year
Apparently, I'm still alive. I thought for sure that my body and soul would have been condemned to the seventh circle of Hell that is Ephrata for all eternity, but here I sit, slowly and slowly returning to ci-vil-eye-zae-shun.
Next to my computer, I'm staring at a mountain of paperwork, none of which is actually school-related, which means it is ( Read more... ) -
No ano que vem, finalmente aprenderei voar
-I will have a pet mongoose, and yes, he will be named Riki. I've given up on the whole "African Grey Parrot" quest that I've been on since age 9; I'm convinced that it just can't happen. Although it would have been nice to have had someone to talk to when I'm bored..meh, whatever, I'm over it. A mongoose seems doable, though. Truthfully, I'm not ( Read more... ) -

Very mundane, very 'British-cinema-esque,' but also serving as some form of slight comedic entertainment. Kind of like playing checkers with a ( Read more... ) -
Testing, One, two..
Today I went on my first longer bikeride, about 30 miles, out onto the Lummi Indian Reservation, originally with the intent of circling the whole thing, and then coming back on Haxton Rd., but heading East somewhere before I reached Ferndale, and slowly making my way back to Bellingham. However, things did not quite go as planned. I got to the very ( Read more... ) -
American Idol
So, I just watched Shakira perform her latest chart-topping heartstopper with Wyclef on American Idol, and I'm pretty sure at least one of them was lip-synching. Not that it matters, though. I wasn't watching their lips most of the time anyway.
Someone please confirm or deny this for me. -
Here's My Alternative Dispute Resolution
Tonight I am in the computer lab writing a paper on the role of courts in American society; this is extremely boring and mundane because the very question is, in itself, comparative in nature. However, this professor does not embrace a comparative perspective personally, and even if he did, the course is not structured that way. Basically, I'm ( Read more... )
