I got this idea from seeing a link to "I saw you MIT" on my friend's Facebook. I've been doing a lot of thinking these days, and there's a lot I want to say, but I don't necessarily want everyone that I'm friends with on Facebook to be able to instantly access it. (I'm not making this a locked entry because I figure that if you've gone looking ( Read more... )

I'm about to sound really ungrateful/bitchy/what have you...so yeah ( Read more... )

Yesterday night, I saw Bo Burnham perform in Kresge Auditorium at MIT. I went with Tara, one of my best friends from when I did CTY in 2004. The show was pretty good; this other comedian, Shane Moss, opened for him. Shane Moss was alright, but his voice wasn't fantastic (and I wasn't nearly as into his humor as I was into Bo's). When Bo finally ( Read more... )

And so it would seem that another six weeks of summer have swiftly passed! Although, the saying "time flies when you're having fun" doesn't necessarily apply here, considering that I spent my time doing chemistry. It was a bitch and a half on a good day, and completely hellish at the end. All that matters now is that I am DONE WITH CHEMISTRY FOR ( Read more... )

Whoo Meghan has an update on college ( Read more... )

Things I have learned in college so far:
1. Sitting on someone's head and consequently wrestling him to the ground is acceptable if he's been a jerkwad. (It's okay, because he and I are friends.)
2. This other guy is really tactless. He one made me cry, although he doesn't know it. Dickface.
3. I attract creepy people.

I just wrote a really long entry complaining about college, but then I decided that it would get me a lot of comments similar to what so many others have already told me, so I erased it. The end.

So, the CMI (Chamber Music Invitational) for 2009 has nearly completely come and gone. The performance is tomorrow night at 7:00, so if you happen to be in the Glen Rock area, you should come listen. I'm part of a quartet performing Beethoven's Op. 18 No. 4, first and last movements. Harmony and I switch off on the viola, she and Josh switch off ( Read more... )

Today was easily the laziest day all trip. I went to bed around 2 AM (I think), woke up at 4 because Michelle had to get up to peace out of the country (haha, she sounds like a fugitive), and went back to sleep until 9 when the phone rang once. It rang once again around 11, but when I asked my mom if she'd tried calling me earlier, she said no. ( Read more... )

Yesterday, dad decided that he wanted to visit the Colosseum in the morning, so that's where we went first thing in the morning. After posing for way too many unwanted pictures (dad has an unfortunate tendency to take pictures of us in front of EVERYTHING, which gets really annoying), we strolled through the Roman forum. Caecilius est in foro, ( Read more... )
