So you'd think that during the week of finals, I'd be extra productive. Not so much ( Read more... )

I hate thinking about, anticipating, trying to prevent, and yet being overcome by stress. My finals start tomorrow and my poetry final is insane. I've studied for about 7 hours so far this weekend, and I still feel completely unprepared. Plus, a girl down the hall has whooping cough so her roommate is sleeping in my room, and I just can't stop ( Read more... )

I'm reading East of Eden by Steinbeck, and I think it's amazing. I'm 400 pages into it and it hasn't been slow for even a moment. Seriously, I really recommend this ( Read more... )

So there's this girl that I really hate. She is just plain mean to everyone. I watched the election news in her room last night with her roommate whom I'm friends with, and in the middle of the results, she called her brother, turned and glared directly at me (and I hadn't been gloating about the results at all- she had just asked who I voted for ( Read more... )

I haven't written in awhile, so here's what's been going on in my life ( Read more... )
