I sat down tonight and went over the collective little scraps of paper that have accumulated over the years since I began college. I slowly read over each side of each little item, putting aside ones that were worth saving. Tickets from concerts, movie stubs, birthday cards, the rare piece of snail-mail, the even more rare photograph. Things that ( Read more... )

Hello world.

I kept wanting to update this thing in the past, oh, month and some change, but I just kept coming up with reasons why I shouldn't. Buuut last night I submitted my term paper for Bio 356 and this morning I turned in my term paper for Psy 382 and I finished my thesis abstract and powerpoint and I'm camped out at Starbucks until my 12:50 ( Read more... )

Todaaaaay, I:

-paid SBU a bullshit amount of $20 because they charge you for taking 21 credits or over or something like that. Last semester I had my highest gpa ever and took 23 credits. They should pay me instead! /conceited

-burnt the roof of my tongue on fish. I bit my cheek last week (really badly) and have been IN AGONY since and JUST when it ( Read more... )

Heyyo. It's been a while since I posted anything of substance. Substantial posts = relative, anyway, so whatever. I'm just going to dump everything that's been going on into this post without rhyme or reason. ARE YOU PREPARED? (Reminds me of this video that alyza  linked to today, which along with Paul requesting I find him Disney music led to me ( Read more... )

Ah, this week was very interesting -- suffice to say it's been quite funny motivating myself to do things with phrases such as, "you wrote 50k words in a month, you can do this stupid assignment!" This weekend I worked on the Stony Brook Press Literary Supplement. Put all of it together by hand...and by hand I mean using Quark Express and ( Read more... )

Ok, I know I said I wasn't going to update due to 'Wrimo related distractions, but I have to tell you about how utterly ridiculous I am. So I'm sitting here, looking a few things up in my Sufi Path of Knowledge text for the class that I'm sitting in on, and suddenly find myself looking at the syllabus to see how far behind I am in the reading. I'm ( Read more... )

Tonight I double checked the Neuroscience track requirements for my Bio major (see last flocked post) and realized that I don't need 4 classes to finish my Bio major, I only need 3! So silly of me to think about doing the minor (as a comparison, my Psychology major only needs 2 more classes). I'll be twiddling my thumbs by this time next year, so I ( Read more... )

I have to take quizzes every other day for my physics class, and I logged in to Blackboard to see if tomorrow's assignment was up, and found this:

I have a mammalian physiology final in less than twelve hours and at this point I'm not sure what more I could squeeze into one side of my brain without it falling out the other side and hitting the ground with a soft plop ( Read more... )

It is nearing midnight. The lump of metal near my bed that generates heat and cold is making hissing noises at me & I have no idea why. After about a month of listening to its deep mechanical breathing I'm still at a loss. It's not even turned on. Any time I ask someone if they hear what I hear, they look at me oddly. It sounds like a mixture of ( Read more... )
