As the school year draws to a close, State and Dearborn and home feel very far away. I still can't believe that we're all splitting up, that I said bye to Adam and Todd, that I won't walk over to WQ anymore, that I won't be in Ann Arbor for who knows how long ( Read more... )

My roomie left a little while ago and now the room looks so empty. It hit me walking back into this bare room that we're all really leaving and that I won't be back for four months. The halls are all so quiet. I think I'm going to miss beastquad. At least, I'll miss throwing the curtains open on a sunny spring morning and looking down on the trees ( Read more... )

What a fun, silly night! First, Emily, Kira and I headed to Greenwood, got lost (heaven knows how!) and wound up at Ryan Pelavin/Jeff Pulker's house. Odd. Then we met up with Matt and Elise at Greenwood--it was nuts there. People were all in the streets and Todd's house was packed. Some flip-cupping occurred and much random walking around and Matt ( Read more... )

So this is college-- I keep saying that to myself. Starting now and continuing next year I have to make up for lost time. I just got back from having a midnight snack with Cat, Diana, Todd, and Christine. Mmmmm, colliders... Today was another chill/productive day-- another good work out, many hours of reading, much walking around the city. What fun ( Read more... )

Today was a lovely spring day filled with many small personal victories: I accomplished all three things on my to-do list for the day! I usually just blow them off on Wednesdays but today, I was determined and successfully rewarded. I also had a fantastic workout. I haven't enjoyed it quite that much in ages-- must've been the weather. I was sweaty ( Read more... )

So I'm not going to London this summer. I followed my gut instinct and though I can't base my decision on much more than that (and money and not getting credit, though those do not matter so much), part of me is whispering "you made the right choice." It's just a whisper though. I've been second guessing my decision since and it was hard arriving ( Read more... )

Whoa, last night was nuts. I bonded with Adam and Todd and Cat and Callyn and all the other people who I don't live with but wish I did. The crazy hat party on Church street was crazy for every reason except the hats. I don't know where all the hours went. Cat and I had a nice sleepover in Kelly and Callyn's room. Great fun. There are no words ( Read more... )

I was just thinking about college and I was wondering which place I will ultimately associate with the most. I assume it will be UM because I'll have spent the most time here when it's all over. But I did start at MSU, which made a lasting impression, and everyone still introduces me as their friend who used to go to State ( Read more... )

Emily and I had a fantastic evening dancing ourselves silly. We had dinner with Kate and Alanna before and then Em and I went out ( Read more... )

We put down the first payment on the apartment today. Yikes. I think I'm going to develop the same fear of signing things that Cat has ( Read more... )
