I've been working at IKEA for just about three weeks now. I have to say, this job is a piece of cake in comparison to past jobs (other than the motel) and I make a better starting wage than my previous job ( Read more... )

So. The semester is basically over in two days. My last (and really only) real final is on the 19th, but my Origins of Christianity final will be happening on Wednesday during our last class period. I lost my job at the motel a few days ago, which sucked. :( I went in to work on Friday, and they told me we're closing on the 15th of December. ( Read more... )

So it has been awhile. Its almost October, and I don't even know where to begin. I've been at Pitt for a month now, and I truly love it.

And then when Kevin finally broke up with Liz (because she accused him of going to a girl's volleyball game to check out all the girls in short shorts ( Read more... )

It is official. I have made my first The Office icon, and I am in love with the show.

I've recently started watching The Office on Connor's recommendation. I know, I know, superfrayed has been stating its hilarity for ages, but I am slow to pick up on things. However, I have been able to watch it and still go over my notes since its mostly dialogue, and I ( Read more... )

It really does amaze me how much cheaper things are here. I just got a 7.2 MP camera for $100. I have a few SD cards, and it has a rechargeable Li-Ion battery or whatever they're called, and it is brand spanking new. I paid over $100 for my NZ camera, which SUCKED and broke about a month in, and now has completely bitten the dust ( Read more... )
