Recently Lucy and Jacob and I took a trip to Portland. Powell's, wandering around downtown, lazing in the grass in parks, IKEA. It was tragically cut short by Lucy's jury duty, but luckily, I ended up going to Cougar Hot Springs with a lot of people that I like alright later that night. It was a spectacular day, but when I got home and went to bed ( Read more... )

Can't brain; needs nap; tea upon wakeup.

Conundrum? How can I nap if I do my laundry? Can't wake up to get laundry?!?!?!?! Flargleargle?! Do laundry later.

I don't have too much to say right now. I'm trying to do well in school, trying to stay psyched, get enough sleep, have fun. This morning at 4:37am I woke up and realized I still needed to write two questions to post on the blog for my comparative lit class, and they were due at 10am, but I had work until 9:45 and class at 10 so there was no time ( Read more... )

I'm sitting in the EMU amphitheatre, my back against the wall, my butt already sore against the cement. The chimes of the clock I heard every fifteen minutes from 8:00am to 10:00pm every day last year just sounded. Nobody's here yet ( Read more... )

Well, relationship confusion and angst... but I don't really want to go into that very much. Anyways this morning I woke up and cried a bit... then realized that living in a dorm sucks if you are crying, because you can't even go and get some tea to cheer yourself up because you have to leave your room to use the microwave, which means other people ( Read more... )

So far it's pretty good. My classes are cool. Lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of words. I have to read them, and I feel kinda weird now when I'm not reading. My creative writing teacher is pregnant, blunt, and swears a lot. She hates Twilight, which is alright with me, because I have never really wanted to read about vampires much ( Read more... )

I came home on Wednesday night and was enlisted in making an apple pie, which turned out good. On Thursday I thought about making this entry, but I never got around to it until now, Sunday. I did make a batch of stuffing that was amazing, with cranberries and raisins and little bits of dried mango. It was like... a delicious romance of dried fruit ( Read more... )

I had a good weekend, although it was way too short. I went to a FREE OTR concert where I was Rick-rolled, live. So good. Then I went home and slept my usual 12 hours for Friday night. On Saturday I did school work. On Sunday I went to the Daffodil Drive, which is this sort of huckbuck thing at a grange... it was kind of fun, I guess. I saw an ( Read more... )

On Friday in pre-calc Page and I cut out paper snowflakes with our old homework assignments and taped them to the windows in the back of the classroom ( Read more... )
