I feel like this summer has gone into hyper drive. At first it stretched out before me in countless puppy-less days of boredom and toil and now it feels like a race to finish and accomplish everything before the fall semester begins. I suppose it is always this way. But it is very distressing and unsettling none-the-less. Summer, I have some issues ( Read more... )

First of all, thanks SO MUCH to everyone who wished me happy birthday via e-mail or livejournal or facebook or phone or all of the above (okay so no one did everything but whatever!). I will be responding to everyone individually of course but until I get around to that...

THANK YOU ALL!!! Big corny kisses and HUGSSSSSS!!!! XOXOXOXOI haven't ( Read more... )

I feel like such an idiot! I forgot Clara's birthday yesterday :(. After all my stupid talking about my own birthday I forgot about the most amazing person in the world. I want to wish her a happy birthday! So...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY peki!!! You are such a wonderful person and friend. I could say much more, but brevity is the soul of wit and I think you ( Read more... )

Isn't it strange and sort of annoying how much the emotions excited and anxious overlap? The first e-mail of the semester from our VP at William and Mary and the butterflies start. I'm excited about the prospects of a new year, but it's always so stressful for me to adapt to a new situation. To top it all off I have so many goals for this semester ( Read more... )

I just came back from Sara's... I was meant to spend the night but it seemed kind of better for me to be sleeping in my own bed and not getting in the way of the morning routine/commitments of the Holdren family and pets. PLUS I know how grumpy I can be in the morning and didn't really think Sara would like me if she tried to wake me up at 9 ( Read more... )

Because it's interesting? Now back to my paper defending Colonel Brandon/Marianne... (I really get credit for this? Wow, I love my major!).

My mom and I finished watching all the episodes of "Bleak House" yesterday and I absolutely adored it! The ending was exactly what I wanted and expected for the most part (good old Dickens!) and my English major training came in handy more than once ;). Oh how do I love costume dramas? More than I can say ( Read more... )

I am feeling gloriously unmotivated to do my Brit Lit II reading, for many reasons, the most important being that I don't really care about 17th c. poets. Sorry, but there it is ( Read more... )

Didn't have power for 24 hours because of an ice storm. Boo. Played games using dictionary with family until it became obvious that power was not going to be restored.

But went to Ikea today! Yay!

Then had to drive back in the back of car with no seat crammed between lots of boxes with no space and very little light/air. Boo.

Went to see The ( Read more... )

My mom and I just finished watching 28 Days Later and two episodes of "NewsRadio". Yeah, we rock.

Tomorrow my parents are taking me to Shortpump to see Rent! I am v. excited, though a little worried about the scoffing that Dad is going to do during the film. He saw the play, though, so I guess that's enough fair warning for what it's going to be ( Read more... )
