Once again, I technically have no excuse for my lengthy disappearance. I spent the week before last getting all my shit moved into the new apartment, and I think it's really coming together. There will be a pic spam to come, once I can get a hold of a camera and clean the house so it doesn't embarrass me in pictures. But it is looking pretty ( Read more... )

But I have a shiny new degree, so not minding it so much right now. I'm still no-official-plan girl, as my last option for grad school is being very slow, but that's ok, because I'm enjoying the spontaneous feeling; makes me think it'd be fun to buy a bus ticket somewhere. Then I get realistic, but it's fun anyway ( Read more... )

Someday I will actually not procrastinate. As it is, I have 4 papers due in a week and a half, lost a weekend of productivity to mom visiting, lost a weekend to Anime Detour hilarity and fun, and am now once again contemplating defenestration. Oh, and our department head tried to keep me from graduating by not signing a sheet and being an asshat ( Read more... )

School is busy, life is stressful, and if I don't at least hear something from one of my grad schools, I'm going to twitch myself right out of my skin ( Read more... )

Apparently hitting my first night of proper insomnia for the semester. I probably wouldn't mind so much, except I'm going to be on campus from 9-5 tomorrow, possibly a little later, then going out to celebrate a birthday. I would also like not to fall asleep in class; it looks bad when the TA is doing the headbob ( Read more... )

So, semester started today. And I am well pleased with the classes so far, and also ready to pass out on my feet from exhaustion. Having a night class on the first day is never a promising way to start things off, even if you like it. I start at 9:30 in the morning, and with several rather large and nice breaks in there, I don't end until 9 at ( Read more... )

We do not resurrect the cold from the beginning of break right before school is about to start. This is inconsiderate, and downright nasty. Please to be taking your germs somewhere else, kthxbye ( Read more... )

So, when I am busy, I post in lists. When I am home, I don't post at all. My bad ( Read more... )

Just submitted the last of the 5 grad school applications! I have no idea how they look, or if I even have a prayer anywhere I applied, but at this point, there's nothing I can do about it, and this feels absolutely fan-freaking-tastic. I even submitted two days before the deadline, which is...so weird for me. I don't do things ahead of time. ( Read more... )

Got home at about midnight on Tuesday, after 5 finals, and a two hour span in which I wanted to stab someone with a fork. And might I say, I have never been so happy to get back to my parents house. I have my bed, the only things on my conscience are linguistics stuff and grad aps, and I can tell school to go blow itself for three weeks. This is ( Read more... )
