I am ready to go home. I am exhausted of school right now. I envy those who are able to go out every other night with friends to relax and have a laugh. Since I've been in college, there has not been one day that has passed without the appearance of an extensive to-do list on the top of my desk. I make to-do lists...

T'was a wonderous day. Public Speaking class was cancelled. Thank you, lords of class scheduling or whatever other powers that control the scholastic universe.

I updated my deviantART account! Go look at some fine, fine photos I've taken in the past few weeks for various class assignments:

I have been a slave to the camera/computer monitor for several hours soley to produce those few...

thank you very much about the photography!

Those are pretty amazing photos... my favourite is 'graffiti days.' You have a very good eye.

Best of luck on your finals.

I changed my profile responses around a bit. Doing that never ceases to amuse me. But don't you think "Into" and "Makes Me Happy" are similar? Likewise, "Not Into" and "Makes Me Sad?" Oh well. I tried to respond accordingly, despite my conviction that it's all so monotonous.

I am tired of having this never ending cold and ovaries on top of that. And the...

My weekends are built on the comfort of solid human bonds.

I do not miss Bucyrus and the phoniness, the stagnancy, the ignorant wanting, the sloppy loose ends, or the dreary days indoors. People have their discrepancies regardless of geographic location, but it's completely and utterly true that Bucyrus seems to be the center of my overall dissatisfaction and discomfort with people in general. I...

dear kelland,

long time no comment.

I haven't been very active posting on the site. It's mostly been just about baseball. I just haven't felt like being very outwardly forthcoming with the results of my introspection lately. By the same token, I haven't really commented much in journals of my friends that are substantive. I feel an odd obligation to give something to my friends by way of thought in my journal if I am going to opine about theirs. I know, I'm a loser.

But I wanted you to know that I've been faithfully reading, as I continue to love your entries, and I'm not only happy for you but very proud of you. I don't mean that in a patronizing way at all, but it's the only accurate way to say what I feel -- you've had a tough year and I think it takes real guts to look at yourself and the world in the wake of so many things and decide that you are keeping your heart and mind and soul open to the full emotional range of the world. You've made that decision, and you wear it well. I never figured you'd do anything less, but I think you continue to reveal an amazing personal character through your writing.

Well, I guess that comment makes up for a few lurkings in quantity, if not quality
biggrin

I love...

The beginning of autumn. Hot tea and sweaters and nostalgia. (Play the album October by U2.)

But mostly, Dan. I love Daniel Elliott. He is the best person I think I've ever met. He's taken care of me, and I've taken care of him. He loves me more than anyone ever has, and I had never felt mutual love before I met him....

"Fuck being interesting". that makes a lot of sense to me... could easily be a motto for my life.

You got great music taste, and I like your photography too. Heck, reading your blog, you're very interesting!

cool

I am feeling tired, so tired. Slightly apathetic towards doing any work today. I have an assignment, some photos to take, a quiz for which to study... that's basically all. I only had one class today. That is why I actually enjoy Mondays, unlike most working specimens. I am starving but Drew doesn't want to eat until exactly noon. Blargle.

My weekend was interesting, I...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JILLIAN MAPES!!!! (My college buddy down the hall.) She's 18 today. Wow. She's young. I remember me 18th birthday and it seems like forever ago.

So, it's 11:53 in the morn and I am drinking coffee. Listening to the Mars Volta. Nasty gym shorts and my face needs washed and my hair is pretty bad. Drew just came over and we decorated the...

So, obviously, I've missed something like a million of your updates, but...where are you going to school?

So, I've survived the first week of college here in Athens, Ohio at the gorgeous Ohio University, and I am still going strong. I've had a variety of interesting experiences, and relaying them to you all individually in a detailed, efficient manner would be nearly impossible (not to mention pretty fucking exhausting). So, I will attempt to summarize, but if you know me, you also...

i was listening to a remix of WGRYWH and thought of you blush

i have trouble sleeping on sunday nights too, i think its your body knowing that the next day there will be starving and waking up and learning to be done.

i've been gone basically all summer but now i'm back and its nice to read your journal again.

good luck with your classes, they sound pretty sweet.

Well, I am here. In college. Sitting in my dorm, not wanting to leave the room to use the bathroom. I hate walking in the hallway.

(OK, I just got back from using the bathroom. Bah.)

Dan and Nevin helped me move on Friday, and I came back on Saturday to finish. We had great, vulgar, inuendo-laden, fun-filled, laughter-inducing times together. All of my belongings,...

Good luck! If you need it! If you don't...let me know so I can reserve it for myself, I always need more. biggrin

I hated going out and about through the dorms myself when I first moved into them, and if I moved back in tommorow I would hate it. But they turned out well for me, you might get lucky...
infinity:
Hope that your first week of class went well. Remeber that I was in the same place a year ago, so if youve got any questions or concerns then feel free to message me here or if youd rather talk to me i could message you with my cell #.

I looked out the window and I chewed on my thumbnail and I felt obligated and ragged... and I thought about something I really wanted to write down. I didn't quite arrive at something concrete. It goes something like this. It's a letter. An explanation. An apology. I don't know you.

I sometimes wonder why, once upon a time, I was prompted to cut off...

One of my best friends died last week. My cat Meeko. My family adopted him ten years ago to this month. Meeko was an affectionate cat. An agreeable cat. He rarely misbehaved... and even when he did, he always fashioned that adorable, completely forgivable face. He was a slender Siamese with gigantic blue eyes, a slick, sleek coat, and a tongue that couldn't resist the...

See me 'round, now you're gone. Dream on.

I hate how I delay updating this journal for over a week. Two weeks. When I finally muster the guster to update, I have entirely too much to say, and it's overwhelming. I don't want to overwhelm anyone. That is not my goal. But I will say this: everything I'm going to write about is interesting, and...

a) I tried to read all of it, really I did.

b) Blimey, that's an enormous bruise.

c) * ahem *

d) weird sort of coincidences, me telling you that I'm about to get married in a journal where you went to a wedding.
