A certain Laura Cass has recently (last 4 months) criticized my disgusting posture, often pointing at slouching suffering old men and telling me I'll look like them in 40 years. These are all indeed true statements, but they've also prompted me to think about exactly what's causing my posture to suck so badly. I think I've figured it out. The ( Read more... )

I am compelled to write here mostly because I got listening to Opeth again today. This is self-reflective music, strangely enough. My mom came to visit this weekend because it was here college's 35th reunion this year (she went to Immaculata up north). I'm not sure whether the opeth has triggered this feeling, but I sense a lonely part of my ( Read more... )

I love McCabe. It is such a wonderful place because it is SO FAR REMOVED from Engineering in every way. I just spent about an hour in there doing my Art History reading, then I returned to my room and almost felt, foreign. My room is laden with traces of engineering, but for the first time in a while, I looked at it all and said "geez, fuck that ( Read more... )

So I had this dream last night that I was driving around Swarthmore with my Mom showing her all these places. I remember driving past Olde Club and then by the engin shop and all this stuff inbetween, except things were all in different places than they really are. It was at first a little disorienting to wake up to, yet for some reason it all ( Read more... )

It is the fifth day i've been back at school. I feel like I want to explode already. A day this stressful should not happen until at least week 6. What the hell am I doing?

Also as a side note, I decided today that most things "characteristically Swarthmore" just piss me off anymore. I need a fucking break. And I need a fucking bridge.

One more semester to go.

GIANTS RULE!!!!

I can't believe how frigging awesome carbon nanotubes are as engineering materials. They do it all ( Read more... )

So I spent most of the evening preparing this, but I have greatly improved my old website! This was largely inspired by alex. I'm so happy, I'm going to add more things to it. But, it's late, so i'm not going to do it now.

This semester has unfolded a lot better than I expected it to. I am not stressed out about the things I thought I would be. I don't know what happened, but I had a spout of bitchiness that lasted like 6 or 7 weeks right in the middle of the semester. That's all but gone now. Part of it has to do with me now having time to do some relaxing ( Read more... )
