I'm moving home on December 9. I sort of feel like a huge bum for trying to move out to California and failing, but also I feel really excited to be home. Aud and Carri are waiting for me to go dress shopping for Aud's wedding, and I'm super excited about that. I've been watching Say Yes to the Dress like a spinster recently. I love going shopping ( Read more... )

We went to Maine this weekend, and it was amazing. We stayed at Meg's uncle's house, which is beautiful. The house had a wonderful kitchen and could sleep 22! It's technically a "ski cabin," but it's nicer than my house so I can't even imagine what his everyday home must look like. At first it was a little creepy because the house is in a remote ( Read more... )

I am graduating way too soon. I'm technically ready for it, but, mentally, no.

We'll see how this weekend goes, outside of this awful allergy attack.

Why am I awake at 4 am? I don't have anything due tomorrow, and I was really sleepy during Talk Sex w/ SuJo, but I haven't been able to fall asleep. More like I haven't tried to fall asleep. Oh well. I've been thinking more and more recently about actually trying to become a sex columnist. I'm not sure about this whole thing. Maybe I'll contact the ( Read more... )

It's only 9:15 and I'm already done my homework! I even caught myself up on my Greek history readings. Well, only partially because I don't have Hesiod, which I seem to know well enough since I passed the reading quiz on it anyway. All in all, this is a swell evening. I do feel sort of lazy for not going to yoga, but I was feeling really loaf-ish ( Read more... )

Settling into another year in Boston, except this time in Allston, which, if it's possible, seems to have more undergrads than BU proper. The house is amazing. I forgot how wonderful it is. As people who have seen it have said, it's one of the 3 nice houses in Allston. It's beautiful, and porchy, and green! I got the bedroom I was hoping to get. ( Read more... )

I just finished writing my personal statement for the Rome study abroad program. I'm ridiculously excited about the prospect of going to Rome. BUT it might actually be better to go in the spring. If I stayed at BU for next fall I could take Latin with PJJ, whom I just adore, and Greek history with Samons, who is just fantastic. It would probably be ( Read more... )

There are these people in the world. They walk around, and they live their lives. They are perfectly amiable when they are engaged, and when they are not, they keep their silence. They do their work, often the same work you are doing. They do everything you do. They are not so different from you or me. They are you or me. But, every once in a while ( Read more... )

I finished reading The Magician's Nephew yesterday and am 6 chapters into The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. I like MN more. I'm not going to lie, the creation of Narnia scene made me cry. Aargh. I have no idea why. Something about the graceful love yet eloquent distance of the lion. He's a lovely character ( Read more... )

Have you ever been awake in the middle of the night and have a choking wave of emotion pass over you and there's nothing you can do but cry?

It's crushing.

What the fuck is going on with me?

I hate being a girl.
