Growing up is unpleasant sometimes
A quick glean over the past six months. I’ve mostly been working. Met some people that are expanding my horizons and helping me obtain a more realistic view of the world and a more accurate estimation of what I’m capable of. It’s something I really needed.
Ultimately, my attitude has changed for the better. More eager than ever to be in school and ( Read more... ) -
I should be studying right now
There is a serious fly infestation in the apartment. It is equal parts disgusting and funny.
We aren’t sure how this came to be, just that the other morning yells of frustration could be heard from the kitchen. Indeed, out by the garbage can was Christie, wielding a cereal box and batting it against the window. An estimated 30 flies met their end ( Read more... ) -

D’oh
I’ve been a little miserable the past couple months even though I’ve tried to keep a positive attitude. From the very beginning I was unsatisfied with my schedule, and the classes themselves I don’t enjoy. Academically I’m not doing well at all, and I’m getting increasingly anxious. it’s my fault, though, because I’ve been missing so much class. I ( Read more... ) -
