So, I've been rather absent on LJ and Twitter lately, I do apologize. I've been drifting around the Internet but not being very sociable, that's very hermit-like of me. I should be on Twitter more, we shall see how it goes.

( In which there is news and vague brooding )

So, ever since I started college, and even before, I've desperately wanted to study abroad, preferably in London. Actually, it's always been London that I focused on ( Read more... )

So, the past two days have essentially been about packing up to go back to school. Yesterday was the kitchen stuff and the bedding and all that jazz, today it was my clothes. Shock of shocks, I think I'm actually developing a style, when did that happen? It seems to involve printed t-shirts, solid-colored sundresses, denim, and the black fedora ( Read more... )

So, my semester's over, except for finals, and that means when I leave campus next Wednesday, I am officially halfway done with college. Holy shit.

What is less great about it is that I won't be around much from a couple hours from now till Sunday. I'll probably get on a few times so my flist and e-mail inbox don't get flooded (been there, ( Read more... )

So, what happens five minutes into my first class of the day - a lecture, mind you? Fire alarm goes off, and we're all sent outside into the frigid air. Lovely. Bloody February, it's too damn cold. On the brighter side, I ran into a friend from one of my classes last year who is also in the lecture and he said our former prof was asking about me. I ( Read more... )

So, I said I'd finish up writing my second semester first impressions - though to be fair, I've still not met my official Design lab prof and won't until next Wednesday, but I've met all the others now ( Read more... )

So, yeah, this is not complete yet, I'll update once I've met all of my professors. Still, going to work on a rundown of them - mostly because I feel like it and this journal should have more than my occasional research and writer's block rants in terms of non-story posts ( Read more... )
