We've got a brand new dance; it's called 'We've Got to Overcome.'"
"'Shoot it up, shoot it up. It just don't matter." I just got re-hooked on Sublime, and everyone should go check out their song April 29, 1992 (Miami) on Last.fm. :) I haven't listened to these guys in a while, and it feels good!
In other news.... I haven't posted in a really long time. Oops. I don't actually think much has changed since I last posted. I mean, time has passed. What else? I have a sweet internship working with psychiatric patients, and I love it! It's so gloriously relevant to what I want to do with my life, and I couldn't ask for more. In that vein, I am also trying to pick a thesis topic for this coming year. I get to conceive of and design an experiment. I will hopefully also have my results published and get to present at a conference. This fall, I will also be applying to graduate school. Ick, a lot of work that I don't look forward to completely. But, for now, I'm taking it one step at a time and just focusing on my internship. This fall will be hellish, but that's this fall, right?
Summer hasn't been too thrilling. I've been out to OH and MA a couple times to visit the fam, nothing too complicated. Not nights spent in the La Guardia baggage claim yet this summer. Thank Darwin. I've been seeing all my homies in MD, which I could not enjoy more. I love you guys! Matt and I are still going strong. The distance over the summer gets irritating, but not nearly enough so that I would ever second guess my love for him. I suppose in one of my upcoming entries I'll update further on the Matt situation. Anyway, he's coming up to MD on Thursday, and Friday morning before the asscrack of dawn, thefirebottle, Matt, and I are trekking up to NYC for a few days, and I cannot wait! Two of my favorite people! And NYC! I can only hope that something doesn't happen to make me despise NYC, as I already have a bit of a grudge against it (everyone in SVA is obsessed with it, sickeningly so). We're staying at a hostel and taking the train. Matt lived there for a while, and I'm excited to see his old stomping grounds.
That's pretty much my life. I survived spring semester. Barely. I got a 4.0 for the first time. I TAed for one of my favorite prof's, head of the Psych dept., and my adviser (all the same person, of course). I also managed to maintain proactive roles in each of four extracurricular leadership positions on campus. Pure chaos. Matt and I celebrated one year back in May. I went to Wales! For a class, in which I did surprisingly well. That's another bit I'll elaborate on later. I have a new roommate for the next year, for which I am thrilled! What else... I think that covers it for MBC news.
That's all I can think of for now, so I'll post soon with more. Am now going to grab some key lime pie. Nom nom nom!
