I'm alive!! So I moved to Athens - Georgia, not Greece - on Sunday. I've spent the week running around buying necessary items, making payments on rent/utilities, and setting up appointments to have other utilities installed. I had School of Social Work orientation basically all day today. I really need to get my life organized over the next few ( Read more... )

I am seriously obsessed with stock-piling kitchen supplies and furniture for my future home. I recently bought a set of pots and pans as well as a cutlery set after much deliberation.

Ok, I need your help and I need it fast. We have to turn in a photo for the yearbook by tomorrow. Since I'm too lazy to have someone take a picture specifically for that purpose, I just browsed through my digital pics for pictures of me alone. These are the few that I came up with. A couple are fairly old, but I've looked basically the same for ( Read more... )

Can I just say that family is amazing? Everyone is already concerned that I don't have definite plans to come home for Thanksgiving. My sister called me out of the blue last night and kept me laughing. And I just got a ( Read more... )

I just returned from a "notorious Vassar student party." I really enjoy being a dirty hippy. If I didn't enjoy showers so much, I might try to create some dreds of my own ( Read more... )
