So the holiday season is rapidly coming to a close. I can't tell if I'm relieved or a bit melancholy about that fact. I must face facts: this is the end of an era. Sixteen times in my life have I looked forward to this time of the year as a reprieve from scholastic pursuits; after a scant four more days, this trend discontinues. It's strange to ( Read more... )

It turns out I won't be needing a PS2 any time soon ( Read more... )

So today is Black Friday. I'm not so sure what's black about it...I know, I know, it has to do with the day after Thanksgiving sales everyone has going on today, but today was just too nice to deserve a description such as "black".

Thanksgiving was decent. Food wasn't great, but then again, I'm not a huge fan of most foods traditionally served ( Read more... )

It's funny to think that I've gone months without any evidence people still read this thing besides me, and then all of the sudden -bam-, I get people responding to me left and right. Oh well. Maybe I'm a better writer than I thought. Or maybe I finally struck a nerve and wrote about something other people might actually care about. Either way ( Read more... )

So...it's been about ten days since IT happened. Turns out Dan was right: I'm not dead. As strange as it was to imagine my life sans my relationship with Brooke, I guess I'm not dead. Weird. Anyway, life goes on ( Read more... )

Well...the seasons are changing once again.

It looks like my spring semester will work out perfect in terms of my class schedule. I was worried that I would have a conflict, but not only is there not such a conflict it looks like I'll even have a few options of classes to take! Woohoo ( Read more... )

I'm definitely fighting off illness. It's frustrating that not even being sick per se can still make you feel crappy. Oh well, my super immune system will fight this off within a few days and I'll go on living life as usual.

I'm on a HUGE Smashing Pumpkins kick now. I don't know what happened, but I put on their Mellon Collie and the Infinite ( Read more... )

I dropped the ball with the ole el jay here. I'd like to get back into posting my ramblings here simply because I think it helps me clear my thoughts. I figure that by posting here, I'm reducing the number of esoteric and half-baked thoughts that twirl around in my head like autumn leaves on an evening breeze ( Read more... )

I guess I just have bad luck with online services. I've recently had problems with facebook, half.com, el jay, and (last year) subscriptions to both SI and xbox live. I just suck at the internet I guess.
