Update
Yes, it's been WAY too long since I've updated. Yes I've graduated (yay), Yes, I finished my thesis (50pgs, YAY), Yes, I'm moved out and am back at home (yay), yes, I'm still depressed most days for no good reason (boo.) It's late, I'm feeling really nauseated for what ever reason, so I don't have time now to write up a complete update, but thought ( Read more... ) -
Frazzled
Yeah, so the writing’s not going so well. 30-40 pages of me RAMBLING on about literature by Bronte and Dickens and then RAMBLING some more about how public schools sucked and private schools were abusive. …. And I’m not even going to mention how many of those pages I have written that I’m planning on keeping. It’s like…. less than a handful. I ( Read more... ) -
So Close!
ARGHGHGHGHGH! I’m so damn close to actually making a thesis that is logical AND supported. I’ve just found a bounty of really great primary sources, and I just need that ONE piece to tie them all together with the literature I’ve been looking at. I even have a new working outline for the paper, with the arguments ready in my head…. I just need ( Read more... ) -
Dreams are my closest companions
Dreams are my constant shadow. Last night, my dream was so vivid and yet I realized I was dreaming, and needed to continue the dream. Lucid dreaming, I believe. It was amazingly clear and had a sort of plot, much like the last major dream I had. I woke up SO effected by it, convinced that I needed to write down the dream and that it has serious ( Read more... ) -
Dreams again
You may recall me talking about a classmate/friend of mine having passed away recently? Well, I was dreaming rather vividly last night, as I do many nights, and somehow I stumbled into a dream in which he was a center focus, outside of myself. Let me explain a bit further, though, since these last sentences don't really even make sense to me.

BRAINZZZZZ
I’m a complete dodo bird. I’ve completely spaced that it was week 10 and that my research journal was due YESTERDAY. *sigh* I really hope Prof won’t kill me if I turn in it Monday. I feel horrible, because I NEVER space stuff this completely, or at least not abut important things.
Headache. Be honest, I’ve had a migraine since Wednesday. grug.

I don't know how to feel
I just got the news that a class mate of mine, who I called a friend, passed away unexpectedly. I just read their post on our weekly update blogs for research, I was just thinking about the research they were conducting and how I could offer help ( Read more... ) -
The best part about research
is finding things that don’t necessarily relate to your thesis or topic, but are damned interesting anyway.

And so the end of the dream begins
...... Got rejected by Teach For America, didn't even get a face to face interview. The stats say that 50 percent of all applicants get a face to face interview ( Read more... ) -
Fever Dreams
I have the weirdest dreams…
First I had a puppy, but my parents locked it in the garage because it peed on the carpet, and there was a boat in the rose bushes. Not so bad for a dream.
Then I was in a bar, debating what to order, and an old high school friend showed up, but she’d gained a massive amount of weight and was trying to get me to join ( Read more... )
