Over the weekend, I had the pleasure of attending a music festival around here, called Spaghettifest. It’s basically a weekend of camping and music and dancing and fun, out in Natural Chimneys Park. I’ve been wanting to go since hearing about it my freshman year (I’m a senior now), but never made it out, for [...]

Searching for stuff to watch on the comedy channel of hulu, I came across the pilot episode of a show titled, “glee” and decided to check it out. It seemed like an okay show, albeit chock-full of stereotypes (another “ugh”), but it was somewhat entertaining, and I was enjoying the understated humor – until, about [...]

I am now in the possession of two exquisite pairs of shoes. Shoe-shopping always manages to bring some joy into my life, and today’s expedition was no exception. I was accompanied by my close friend and unofficial fashion consultant, Barbaraanne. We set to work as soon as we arrived, scouring the [...]

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 [...]

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.

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 [...]

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 [...]
