Ahh, West Wing. I watched the first 9 (?) episodes of this season in one weekend when I went to visit the 'rents. (Up to where Jed makes the deal in China and gets back on Air Force One.) If my mom wasn't still watching and taping, I don't think I'd keep up with it. Ever since Sorkin left, it's just not the same. Not as funny, not as crisp, and the main characters have to fight with each other more than before. When Season 4 comes out on DVD this May, it'll be the last one I get. But I'm still interested in the characters, so I suppose I'll keep watching... (not like there's anything else on TV).
I did the whole not putting anything up for a year, but I sorta knew one of my roommates was gonna move out. Now I've got his room and my spastic decorations. Why's everything so up in the air? What's the deal with your Temporary Life?
Id pay handsomely for your GRE tutoring. Although it is my own lassitude that will hinder my performance, your prudence would certainly be helpful. I too am considering biostats, though I will more than likely change my mind when I complete this class on linier regression analysis.
KAPLAN--
Al, I saw your post about Kaplan in the NHS group and figured I'd just say hi and offer advice since I had the job of judging that interview for years.
Most people with teaching experience do a good job, but, things just to remember--
-STAY WITHIN THE 5 MINUTE TIME LIMIT
not a 100 percent necessity but it'll give you an edge on people who don't
-CALL ON PEOPLE--you get judged on participation
-IT'S OK TO GO IN LOOKING LIKE A FREAK--I did.
-WRITE ON THE BOARD.
-DON"T TEACH A RECIPE--they get that all the time
-DON"T DO MASSAGE--they won't let you touch each other
if you have any questions about Kaplan, ask, i am the total fucking expert.
i think you'd be ok w/nosering and rocker shoes. especially if you're in a college town. remember, the person judging you deals with college kids all day long, too, if you're in a real conservative place they might be like "hey, you'll have to dress different when you actually start work". in NYC, i think my hair, etc. probably actually helped.
I moved into my new apartment oct03 and didnt unpack a single thing. cept like dishes, some underwear, some music. whatever. everything stayed in a box. and sure enough i moved back out march04. I just felt like i wouldnt be there for long, even though i loved that place, a lot.
I was showing this site to a girl I know, and to show the diversity of everyday things to more "extremes", I brought her to your journal.
Going through your comments she got reaaly excited (in a sexual way), and it all climaxed in me fisting her a couple of days ago! Amazing experience for us both (she couldn't talk or do nothing but close her eyes and enjoy), and I owe it all to you guys (Shera, Stormy and so on, but mostly you and your openness).
So apparently this site does work wonders for people in ways of... ways.

A word about feeling uncomfortable in one's own home: It makes you tend to sit around inside by yourself being a lameass less and get out and have a good time of things more. Which is kind of cool. I guess it's the "bright side", as it were.
I hate laundry. I know exactly how you feel..... my head is full of hot air and thoughts, but the only thing that comes out is the air most of the time.
I too am considering biostats, though I will more than likely change my mind when I complete this class on linier regression analysis.
I moved in three years ago and empied my last boxes last week. Chill.
