I know the White Sox scored 14 today against us but I'm still hopeful that we'll come away with a split in Chicago. We've got Wells going tomorrow and we've still got Schilling once at Fenway. I'm not worried.

I'm officially hooked on Firefly. After seeing Serenity, which was an amazing movie, I got the first three discs of the series from Netflix. What a...

I was forced to go to the Career Fair tonight. Walking up to and talking to recruiters is no fun at all. I had no idea what to say, or actually I knew what to say I just thought it sounded stupid. Especially since I didn't want a job with any of the 130+ companies that showed up. The more entertaining part of the whole...

I love cranberries. I really do.

I used to have this Skeletor action figure when I was little... I always thought it smelled like an old man.

"Delicious" is a funny word. It has become my adjective of choice to describe things. As in, "Your new car is delicious", or perhaps "My physics exam was delicious". And so on...

Doesn't anyone else realize that "Weekends...

Currently I'm taking a job search strategies course. Really the only reason being that without the one credit from the course I wouldn't be able to graduate in december. Anyway, people ask me what I want to do for work when I graduate. So I give them the honest answer which is, "I don't care as long as I can pay the bills". And then...

I swear that before every semester all the professors in this entire university get together and decide which week they will dump a shitload of work on their students. It's not a coincidence that I have 4 exams this week, and one stupid physics project due wednesday. Because of all the work whether or not I actually go to the Alkaline Trio, Reggie and the...

I had a dream last night that someone drove their car through the window of the sandwich place right around the corner from my apartment. Then I remembered, oh wait that actually happened yesterday around 7pm. I have no idea how you drive a car into a building but someone managed to do it yesterday.

It's week 2 of football season, but it's also my...

Echoes of reggae comin' through my bedroom wall
havin' a party up next door but i'm sittin here all alone...

I skipped my class at 12pm for apparently no reason cause UPS didn't show up until 5pm. Sometimes they show up in the morning, sometimes they don't show up until after 5pm. I'd like some consistency.

I shook a container of chocolate milk. That in itself is uneventful. However the cap wasn't on tight and now there's chocolate milk all over my stove, wall, and...

It's three days later and I still plan on living and working in England for a year post-graduation.

I also seem to have seriously injured my foot. I must have done it yesterday when I was running. It's really hard to walk and quite painful, so I've been limping around campus all day which is truly a sad, sad sight.

So I went to see a career counselor today. It was a long meeting but informative. The best thing she told me was about the jobs abroad program. Basically through an agency affiliated with the university, I could go over and work in Brighton, London, Oxford, and some other place in England. It's not work that you could make a career out of but working...
