I'm starting to wonder what permanence feels like ( Read more... )

So yesterday I was talking to my sister online. We weren't chatting about anything in particular, just catching up; and then she said, suddenly, that she wanted to leave the Catholic Church ( Read more... )

The last week before school starts is always difficult. It's that awkward time stuck between being ready to go back and have something to do, and not ever wanting to leave. Hangouts are fun, and necessary, but bittersweet, and on top of this my particular brand of neurotic means that I'm about as ill-equipped to deal with change as it's possible to ( Read more... )

I do not post here enough. Things have happened! I should have tl;dr'ed about my job at the German Cultural Center already, or talked about the strange and ridiculous things I've done with people here, or had something introspective and rambly about my mother and music and delicious Mexcian food all in the same evening, or at least geeked the fuck ( Read more... )

I hit this really bad funk this week. I don't know what caused it - a combination of little things, general lack of mental stimulation (I adore the reading I'm doing for Muggle Studies, but we don't discuss it and until I start my final paper I'll have no reason to apply it and augh), a minor bout of homesickness, general loneliness, lack of ( Read more... )

First off: I am doing it again. I started this semester with 13 credits-- really not much at all, and pretty much all prereqs. Actually a little low on the "what you're expected to be doing" scale, but I'm planning to take several of my math-related prereqs this summer anyway, so ( Read more... )

Welp! Long story short: Yes, the douchebag does run in the family. I hate being lied to as much as I ever did. I am single ( Read more... )
