I feel like I'm getting sick, which is totally awesome. And by "totally awesome" I mean, exactly the opposite of that. It's fitting because tomorrow is what I am referring to as "MONO-VERSARY!" Since one year ago tomorrow, I began a week of having the worst sore throat ever, which I would later learn was ~mononucleosis. Which sucked, let me tell ( Read more... )

OH GOD OH GOD I HAVE A PHONE INTERVIEW ON TUESDAY. Really nervous about this ( Read more... )

This weekend I learned that I do not do well when provided with free drinks/shots at the bar. Fucking Dorney's. Dorney's (actually Dorney & Malone's, but that's not the point) is one of the bars local to Manhattan College. I've found that many people end up with some sort of Dorney's horror story, and Saturday night was mine. I went with my friend ( Read more... )

I finally saw Iron Man last night. AND IT WAS SO GOOD AAAAHHHH. I'm in love with that movie. I want to see it again and again. And then take a break to see Indiana Jones. But then go right back to Iron Man. Awesome.

Last week roughly everyone I know graduated from college. I was an usher at the baccalaureate mass and the actual ceremony, and I had ( Read more... )

So I'm going to New Orleans. Again. At the end of May. Because apparently that's what I do now. Just go to New Orleans always. This isn't totally on a whim. One of my friends is moving down there at the end of August and needs to find an apartment. She was supposed to go with her mother, but her mother for some reason decided she didn't want to go ( Read more... )

 Happy Easter!

I am back from New Orleans and I am definitely cold. Perhaps at some point I will post some pictures because I took some really good ones with my badass new camera. Also, I love it down there and need to get back ASAP. Here are somethings I loved this week:

-Putting up siding, caulking, and priming
-Powertools, specifically the nail gun ( Read more... )

My birthday wasn't actually anything I should have been remotely worried about. Luckily I just get anxiety over everything that ever happens. It was a surprise party (that I mostly already knew about). Awkward middle school dance themed, no less. And it was a whole weekend of free alcohol from various people, so I can't complain. And with my 21st ( Read more... )

I haven't been altogether too anti-social this past week or so. I went to the movies, I went to a get together of sorts at Maura's house and spent the night, and I even went to a mini football party to watch the Giants vs. Cowboys (sometimes I like to pretend I'm a big football fan and get really into it). Which is an accomplishment because I never ( Read more... )

I suppose since i have a lot of down time due to my class being cancelled this morning, I would begin writing up my trip to New Orleans.

We flew out of LaGuardia Airport on the morning of Sunday, January 7. There were 15 of us who went. Two faculty members: Rocco, an English Professor and Brother Joe, a math Professor. There were 13 students: Myself ( Read more... )
