I realize that a subject line of the weather in Paris isn't exactly...ok admit it: talking about the weather is part of the realm we call 'boring small talk'. However, since winter in Paris seems to involve a lot of grey sky and chilled rain, sun shine is a rarity and just all around lovely. The first time we had a sunny day in awhile I was ( Read more... )

I hate when I realize it's going to be an insomniac night too late to take a sleeping pill if I want to make it to class in the morning. I used to go do laundry at times like this but our laundry room closes at 21h. LAME. *grumbles ( Read more... )

I got asked out again this evening. I've been chatting with a Bulgarian guy who lives on my floor in the kitchen a few times a week-- we tend to take our evening tea at the same time. (yes, usually I'm a coffee person but when you are quitting cigarettes you just need something soothing in the evenings). We ended up cooking dinner at the same time ( Read more... )

I wrote a nice longish post and then my browser froze up and ate it.
Evil Evil Browser. Mozilla-Don't Do That.
I'll try reposting the general ideas when I'm not so frustrated...I thought I'd do it now but I find myself just wanting to rant about things involving the internet and and well I'll stop there.

It's Friday evening, ok well at the moment it is 5 minutes into Saturday but to be truthful it never really registers as the next day for me until the sun rises anyways ( Read more... )

Usually I wait until I'm slightly out of my mind before updating this thing. However, I've been manic for going on 3 weeks now...I think I'm a bit out of my mind all of the time. I took sleeping pills last night around 11, fell asleep (finally) around 1 and woke up at 9:25 to take the metro to school around 9:34. I didn't have class until 12 but ( Read more... )

After I updated last night I was skimming over the past few entries I had posted and realized every single one of them started out with some lame excuse about why I hadn't been posting in a while ( Read more... )

I can't remember the last time I posted on lj. Probably when I got tired of self-editing. I've been using paper-you know that pulpy stuff flattened into dry sheets that you can put ink on, and while it's more satisfying paper is frustrating when I have X amount of time to write and I have well...too much in my head to get it all out by hand during ( Read more... )

I read a story ages ago, in the days before I thought to bookmark favorites, that I've been trying to remember. It's snarry, I believe it starts while Harry is a student. Harry dies at some point, battling Voldemort maybe though I'm not sure about that point, and Snape is torn apart by it. Before Harry dies he had asked Sirius to watch out for ( Read more... )

I have not written anything in a long time and I suppose it is partly because of the nature of the medium, it's just too public a forum for my thoughts sometimes. I know that seems slightly preposterous given the extremely personal content of some of my entires but for me, there are some worries, consuming thought trains, that I don't share with ( Read more... )
