OMG, YOU'RE STILL WRITING HERE?

god, it's 3:50am and i'm rummaging through all my friends' old posts. my goodness, mi. you're still writing.

i am re-starting my LJ. and have a little blogspot project. i feel like singing, "It's the start/ Of something new..."

how are your b-school applications coming along?

i just sent this note to lara & gino (through LJ):

LET'S START WRITING AGAIN! come on, come on, come on. let's stop throwing out little incoherent parcels of thought on facebook (and twitter). let's get our minds working!!!

love,
mike
