When the dining hall serves something you’ve seriously been craving, it’s like winning the lottery. Fried chicken in my case. Good thing I was eating by myself, I wolfed that down unladylike like nobody’s business. Not that anybody who has seen me for more than 5 seconds has ever ever ever thought I was ladylike.

Ugh, I am feeling shitty because I just biffed my English final. Such an easy class, too. I brought my laptop to type up my short answer and essay questions for the final. This might’ve been a mistake because usually hand cramps will act as some kind of length indicator. Since my hand tires, I [...]
Not even the sword of Hell can stop me. or something like that.

Power-walked my way to the lab this morning (arriving merely 7 minutes late), only to find out that my research supervisor had sent me an e-mail telling me that she had some things to take care of and wouldn’t be able to meet today. Ironically, the only reason I didn’t check my e-mail this morning [...]

2:32am – Entertains the idea of being a sea anemone.
3:31am – Wakes up, stumbles into bathroom to pop out contacts. Goes back to sleep.
8:30am – Wake up, extremely dehydrated, refuses to get out of bed.
8:45am – Alarm rings. Hits snooze.
8:54am – Alarm rings again, hit snooze.
9:03am – Alarm rings, crawls out of bed. Brushes the [...]

Got to work (on time!) this morning, pulled up the shades to signify the lab’s opening, entire window shade promptly fell off the sill. Owned.
One of the residents walked in and their cell phone started ringing. And instant internal scream erupted. This guy had the same polyphonic, shrill, all-around horrible ringtone that my old roommate [...]

I’m sitting here in the office with no idea what to do. I came in (late) this morning with every intention of sticky-labeling about 2000 postcards but after I did about 90, the guy in charge of mailing them out comes in a tells me that he got a quote for someone else to label [...]

The problem with having a lot of RSS feeds/blogs to read is that in this uber connected world, they keep leading me to new, interesting blogs! The current count comes up to 37 feeds in my lovely Bloglines account. 550 new posts to read at the moment. Shit, I’m behind. (By the way, everyone should [...]

After talking to my best friends about my ex-bestfriend, I’ve come to terms about how things are and what to expect. It’s good to know that other people see what I felt but didn’t have the evidence to back up. I think I tend to internally overthink things and later on forget what’s original and [...]

It’s interesting what kind of curveballs life will throw at you sometimes.
I’ve only lost one boyfriend, but secretly, I’ve considered myself to have two exes. This relationship was not with a boy, or even romantic, but when it ended, it shattered my life all the same. I apologized and begged and pleaded at first, cried [...]

Oh god. I’m going to get fired. I’m sitting at my desk right now trying to keep my friendly computer proctor face on and not my Oh-My-God-They’re-Going-To-Fire-Me face. Fuck.
Once again, I “set” my alarm, but I didn’t save it, so I woke up an hour and a half after I should’ve been at work already. [...]
