I Have Really Bad Ideas/Luck. Really.
Friday we had our first fire drill of the year. At 9 a.m. Which, admittedly, is better than the ones we have had at 3 a.m., but still. It was rough. These normally take about an hour before we are let back in, so I suggested we go wait at school, buy some coffee, maybe curl up on a bench and get some more sleep since it was still so early in the morning. It seemed like a really good idea. We...

Goal for Today: Get Through Today
I was going to complain about my sleep schedule being messed up, but then I realized that in order for it to be messed up, I would actually have to have a schedule. I don’t. Two to six a.m consisted of me tossing and turning, attempting to sleep. Six to eight a.m is the amount of time it took me to accept the fact that my body had indeed betrayed me and was not going to let me sleep. My game...

Confessions of a Sleepaholic
I am addicted to sleep. So I guess you could say I am also addicted to sleeping pills. My reasoning: it’s just that there is nothing worse than lying in bed knowing you have to get up in a few hours, and finding that sleep eludes you. Enter: my little pills. So, the other night I found myself once more lying in bed and watching the clock. A couple hours passed and, finding myself no nearer...

Day 1 of Being a Better Person
Well, the weather continues to disappoint. I, on the other hand, have upheld my resolutions for a solid 24 hours! This is longer than I have ever held a resolution before, mainly because I have never MADE one before. What? It’s not like there’s anything about myself I need to change, right? Right guys?! To celebrate I am going to Starbucks. Actually, we are going there to meet friends...

Mid-Year Resolutions
My blog is a sad disappointment, much like the weather lately. With shamefully long weekends, I hardly have an excuse anymore. And so I am making a mid-year resolution to write more. The beautiful thing about mid-year resolutions is that they don’t have to be upheld for as long as New Year’s resolutions, and therefore there is less probability of failing. I am also going to be out of...

Starbucks (Mis)adventures
Yesterday I went to Starbucks. Highlight of the night (aside from bonding and consuming multiple frappuccinos) was when the man sitting beside us decided to use his newspaper as a kleenex. He buried his entire head in it and sneezed several times, and then continued reading it (This in no way bothers me as I am not a germaphobe. There is no such thing as the five second rule with me. If food falls...

The Perils of Public Transit
I think one of the biggest changes for me living in the city is not having a vehicle. I have realized how much I passionately hate public transit! I have come to know all too well the feeling of standing and waiting for a bus, and having it fly right by because it is too full. Or having the doors open, and you stand there staring, because you know there is no way you are going to fit on, but you...

My Luck is Changing
So I went to bed last night totally planning on not going to my nine am class today. Didn’t set my alarm. Then, for reasons unknown, I woke up at eight. I took this as a sign that I should go to class because waking up at eight is a very big deal for me. Waking up at eight WITH NO ALARM is unprecedented (see what I did there - used a law term=)). So, I dragged my butt out of bed and went....

So, after a year-long sabbatical I am finally back on tumblr. The reason? I am writing an essay and facebook is not offering enough of a distraction for me… So here I am. At least until the essay is complete =)

Awkward Moment #5637433
So my floor had a pizza party the other day because we did a lot of surveys or something. Obviously I went because I love food pizza. My RA was sitting at the table with all the pizza on it so I decided to try and make conversation with her. It went as follows:
Me: My, that’s a lot of pizza!
Her: You can only have two pieces.
And I was reminded of my rule: don’t talk to people ever....

My Monday Morning Woes
I am not a morning person. I am hardly even an afternoon person. Bad things happen when I get up too early. Case in point: my coffee making skills, which seem to be somewhat lacking in the morning hours. In this half-awake, groggy, dream-like state I find myself in when forced to rise at an ungodly hour, I have been known to make my coffee minus the grounds. Which, for those of you who know your...

– And this is why my culture jamming will wait for tomorrow night. It just doesn’t work out when I try and do it early.

– haha I sympathize with Phoebe. There isn’t always time!!!
