No More Quarters

Posted by: typeofl1fe on: April 30, 2008

It’s finals week, and I’ve just finished basically all of my finals (I have one left on Friday morning but it is GPYSC 101 and is therefore going to be a cinch. Seriously, I walked into class one day not knowing that we had a test, took it, and got an 82 on it. And [...]

Finals Week

Posted by: typeofl1fe on: April 28, 2008

Just FYI: due to the convergence of the majority ALL of my most difficult exams and final papers on Wednesday morning, I won’t be posting again until Wednesday afternoon at the earliest. Until then, I will have my nose perpetually buried in a text or notebook, or my fingers fixed on a keyboard, furiously [...]

Flashback

Posted by: typeofl1fe on: April 22, 2008

Somewhere, out in the vast abyss of the Interweb, I found today an interesting site that lets you look up the #1 Billboard song on the U.S. charts on any date in history, as far back as the 1890s. No joke.
Upon my discovery of this site, I wasted no time in looking up the [...]

Type 1 Awareness Day

Posted by: typeofl1fe on: April 14, 2008

Kerri Morrone, over at Six Until Me, has designated today, April 14, as Type 1 Diabetes Awareness Day. I had planned to relate my diagnosis story today, but I am running late, as usual. I have a post in the works, and I had hoped to finish by today, but no dice. [...]

Shorts tan? Check.
Watch tan? Check.
Pink cheeks? Check.
Today, I skipped my geology class in favor of sitting out on the quad avec mes amis. I brought my philosophy text out to try to study, but that was a false pretense. Nothing was going to get done out there except socializing, relaxing, and of course [...]

Good News

Posted by: typeofl1fe on: April 9, 2008

I got a call from the doctor’s office today, concerning the result of my A1C test from my last visit. It was 8.7%, which is nowhere near perfect, nor is it in the ideal range, but I am still working on that, and it is still going down from the last time it was [...]

TGIF.

Posted by: typeofl1fe on: April 4, 2008

It has been a hell of a week. I am so glad that classes are over, it is the weekend, and for a brief moment, the stress is relieved. I haven’t gotten a decent night’s sleep since Monday, and I am more than ready to sleep for a long, long time. But [...]

No Drive Day

Posted by: typeofl1fe on: April 2, 2008

Global “No Drive Day” took place this past Sunday, but on campus today, the JMU Green Team organized our own version of the event. It was pretty sweet – we gave out t-shirts, refreshments, and raffle tickets to all sorts of goodness. I’m not going to lie, the t-shirt was definitely a [...]
