Oh, Political Science 150... how I detest thee. How thee bringith me no joy. How I loathe awaking at 9:30 AM on Tuesdays and Thursdays to shower, groom, snack, and trot my way in the cold, up the hill, to sit in your presence and yawn at your content. Please stop. Just stop.
On a merrier note, today is the 15th, officially. That means one...

zgrat:
your boyfriend needs to cut his hair

zgrat:
i was kidding!
btw, my hair gets just as curly


My state of mind is improving.
I enjoy HI-C fruit punch juice boxes.
I spend my weekends in Columbus with Dan. We stay in bed until four in the afternoon, eat food, play Mario Tennis, play/improve on Guitar Hero, take showers together, do laundry and various other household chores, squeal over Maurice, and take provocative/strange photos centered around the growing of mustaches. Joel often accompanies...

I can't quite place this. This is not something you'll want to read, but here it is, all laid out. On the table. This is a piece of my heart.
I don't know when the exact moment occurred, but I realized that I feel this emptiness and this sadness that I cannot adequately convey in the verbal sense. In so many words, after months of...

Sorry things are sucking.
I've realized I have depression on a 6 year cycle. Middle school, I was hopelessly depressed, as everyone seems to be. Things got better after a while, and high school had it's drama but no deepset depression. Freshman year of college? Outright mental breakdown. Pills. And then I realized I felt numb, shook the antidepressants, and that decision to act seemed to free me. ....That and the fact that I was high on the attitude I learned from a new friend (who has since died). ....Here I am now, age 24, and I realize that a deep depression has caught me again. I'm feeling helpless and complacent. The more I feel that, the less inclined I am to break out of it.
....But all of that is to say that outlook changes, slowly, cyclically. Try to press yourself forward, learn what you can from your classes, fake your passions if you can't feel them. ...That way when things feel exciting again, you'll be on track to pick up the pieces.
Good luck. Love and joy to you.

I've felt this way... and some days I still feel this way.
What else can you to but get out of bed? This may sound like a Hallmark, but take joy in that you have another day to evolve. It may seem like all odds are against you and everything is futile, but that sense of restlessness and worry is just part of it. And it's all good trust me, because the bad makes the good that much sweeter. Sometimes it's scary going out into the world, but be happy that all days aren't sunny and everything doesn't go as planned. In a couple years, I'm sure you'll look back and see the path you've taken and really be in love with how you got to be who you are.
You are moving always whether it seems that way or not.

Ho ho the holidays are days in the dust. Now I am melancholy and not wanting to go back to school. Oh well.
My Christmas was nice. A few days before, on Thursday, I believe, Shannon and I embarked on a seven-hour shopping spree. I managed to get all of my loved ones presents, and I was pretty proud of myself despite the immense foot...

I see that Acetracer has my back.

Tonight has been a night of emotional trials.
Maurice, the hampster, was in her ball rolling around the house for a few hours... right? Right.
So, I retired to the den to fool around on the computer. Suddenly, it struck me that I should probably check on her. I went into the dining room, and her ball was in the corner of the room, completely...

Are they sideburns or those tufts of hair that denizens of Hyrule seem to have?!?!
They look very Christmasy... may they be Merry!

aren't they both awesome! 

I feel very conflicted right now.
My checkbook is hugely off. My account statement, which is dated 12/07, is about $200 off. And why? All five checks I've written in the last two months do not appear on my statement. This is quite confusing to me. I'm sure at least one if not all of them have been cashed. I mean, I wouldn't mind having...

We are waiting until the summer to move because Butt can't transfer his credits until then... and it also gives me time to pay off student loans. So when we get there we'll both (hopefully) be going to either OSU or Columbus State. I think the former.
I'm sure Butt won't mind if I say this so, you are more than welcome to hang out when he move there. It'll be Butt, Abbey, Dustin, and me. And probably other random people at any given hour.

I don't know! You're still on my bookmarks list, but you're right, you're not in blue anymore. Huh. 

Mmmm... Delicious, mouth-watering peanut butter fudge... why must you disappear with such rapidity? Damn thee.
My legs itch. Damn leg warmers. Should be called leg...itch...ers.
So I went to the dentist last Wednesday, and ever since then I have felt better about my teeth. But only slightly better. They are so strange. Sometimes it seems to make no sense.

I had the inside of one of my wisdom teeth fall out while driving down the road. The dentist I went to was surprised I wasn't doubled over in excruciating pain. Beware of wisdom teeth almost as much as the dentist's trying to pull them
Had someone try to send me a message three times before it worked. No, people aren't liking the new setup around here.

i dropper your card off today at the post office. hopefully it will get there soon. if it doesnt show up in like a week let me know and i will get another one out. i know how the mail is this time of year.
Beeeeeeeeeeeed. That is where I should be right now. But I'm not. No, I'm not. My life. My days. My world right now. So utterly bland. But at least my mind is recuperating from all the work it did for the past three months. I have literally done next to nothing for the past three days. Shall I muse about the small achievements I've made?...

What kind of pillow do you sleep on at school? If you pick out one that's designed for neck support it might be easier on your poor body at school. Just a thought, from a veteran of dorm sleeping and neck problems...

I'm home... HOME! It is a great feeling.
My week has been rather eventful. On Monday, of course, I saw the ghastly white comedic genius known as Jim Gaffigan. He was lovely, and Dan and I had a gayous time.
On Tuesday, I took my last exam and finished packing up my shit for break. Dan stayed with me overnight and helped me move the...

I got something for you:


good work getting the drawing class done, it's like a double lab course for me. my current lab is organic chem lab and that lab is 4 hours 20 min long [usually done in around 3 hours though] and had a 55 minute lecture, both once a week.
and as for the going to the bathroom every hour, ive got that going for me when im studying, but that's just cause i drink a lot when i study, so every hour i go and take a break, also stop at my computer to make sure there arent6 any new emails, sg posts, etc.
the humidity in the dorms is usually totally way too low. like in my suite it's unacceptably low so i have a humidfier running 24/7. it helps a bit, otherwise the photographs on my wall curl up into u shaped things...
singing stuff that reminds me of the producers at the end of the journal, eh? i saw that musical last december...no wait i lied this past summer.
