There is absolutely no way I'm not gonna be a fatty when I'm older.
If my metabolism slows down like everyone claims it will, I'm screwed. I eat all the time, pretty much.
On another note, I've been busy as hell. I finally finished my boyfriend's scarf for Christmas. It's only mildly retarded. As opposed to the one I made him like four years ago...

I just started reading The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test by Tom Wolfe, which is interesting so far.
I like having things to read again; it helps me take my mind off of class stuff.
I'm looking forward to winter break, although I'm nervous to stay over at my boyfriends house and to go to his family's christmas party. Although I do get to go to...

Christkindlmarkt is hands-down my favorite thing in Chicago.

I'll be interested to hear what you think of the Tom Wolfe book.
I've been kind of disappointed a lot lately. I'm hoping that changes during winter break and whatnot.
With finals coming up in 3 weeks, a lot is going to be going on.
I think that a big part of life is looking for authenticity in our existence. Especially now, in a world where we're surrounded by technology and other people pushing us into situations. If...

Being 36 now, I'd say, there's no way you can live life without regretting something. You'll choose, and your life will take shape based on those choices. You'll wonder but never know what those other choices might have brought. Be proud, strong, and live on the strength of your heart. You've got to learn to be okay with a life that isn't all perfect and good, because that life doesn't exist.

I have nothing positive or helpful to say about reaching your mid 30s and realizing that you have wasted your life

So lately I've been obsessed with Pushing Daisies. It's my favorite show that's currently on.
I love the Amelie-like atmosphere of the show. And that Anna Friel wears 50s dresses. I love that sort of glamour.

I'm really restless. My mind wanders easily.
Although I enjoy learning a LOT... I'd really like to travel.
I have a really long list of books I want to buy. No money for them, really. It's unfortunate:
the kool aid acid test by tom wolfe
The Razor's Edge - W. Somerset Maugham
"Ellen Foster" by Kaye Gibbons
The Tao of Pooh - Benjamin Hoff
Eat,...

"The Tao of Pooh"... oh its brilliant i can't recommend it enough... really enlightened (pardon the pun) on Taoism and also threw a new light on how i view Pooh.... good choice mate

ellyson:
If you're going to read "The Tao of Pooh" you should check out "The Te of Piglet" as well. Both are pretty good.
So I just received my first bunch of cranes. It seems there will be cranes in the mail for me pretty much every day. My roommate is not going to like our room being full of cranes. Haha.
It's nice that it's finally cold out. Except it's getting bitterly cold which sucks. But, that's what you have to expect from Chicago. I love winter in...

I start feeling Christmas-y and nostalgic around this time every year. By the time it gets here I'm over it, but for now it feels great.
Yep, those were my drawings.

I'm so tired...
I started organizing a thing for as many people as possible to make paper cranes (1000) to send to the sick Decemberist.
So far 53 people are involved.
Very tiring.

Am I wasting college money if I think I just want to own a bakery and possible for a NFP?
I'm also considering working for legal aid...
EDIT: I am officially freaking out. The rest of the Decemberists tour was just canceled with no plans for a new one. Someone is REALLY sick and the site said it was an extreme situation.
So many people...

I AM SO BUMMED ABOUT THE DECEMBERISTS!
The Decemberists were AMAZING last night. They seemed so excited, which is probably because we are the first tour stop. The front row was awesome. Laura Veirs said we were amazing. Everyone was so into it.
I don't know if this is a testament to Brian and me as a couple or as rabid Decemberists fans, but when a setlist came our way, we grabbed...

Ur so lucky I love the decemberists so jealous lol
So I had one of the worst nights ever followed by last night, which was pretty good.
My roommate came in at 2am the night before and didnt shut up until 3:30. I then had to wake up at 8am and was exhausted and felt shitty all day. But somehow, without napping, I was fine at night and we had a friend over to watch...

It is an injustice that the portion of your life when you have the greatest potential and opportunity to enjoy yourself is also the time when you have the least money.

That is true.
Although a trip into the crypts sounds fabulous. Is it for a class?
