  • Dr. Bates finished his lecture today. In Rhetoric AND in Theology. Granted, it was the second lecture, and this was the eighth class of the semester....

  • My dearest Poppop, My personality is currently not blue. No, it's not, it's not green! Curfew should be the imperfect passive tense. But I prefer the perfect passive participle of the verb "to freak." Quem bas…

  • The woods are so beautiful, all snowy and white. We saw a drop of water hanging off the tip of one of the branches, glistening there in the sun, like "a diamond" icicle on the tree.

  • Come on, people, I need a serious self-esteen boost here. COMMENT!

  • Eegads! Golly! By George! Why is life so complicated?!

  • My new plan: stay at this school, don't change majors, but begin an aggressive policy of non-directional counseling, following Rogerian philosophy.

  • I am now the proud owner of a bright, jailbird-color orange snow shovel. It looks great resting against the foot of my bed. If only it looked that good plowing through four inches of snow in the development across the …

  • I'm in Founders, eating coconut. Real coconut, too. It all started when Nick brought a coconut back from his trip to Florida. By the time he opened it, a month later, which happened to be today at dinner, it was rather…

  • Happiness.

  • Nick, describe a tootsie roll pop. Daniel, stop giving him weird looks. Anyway, Kirsten and Kaylyn and I played dress up today and all put on formals. It was fun. I got to see President Bush today, as well as former…

  • I'm getting up at an insane hour to drag some poor soul out of her bed so she can bring me to a cold, impersonal mass transit station that will bring me into one of the most congested cities in the world so that I can st…

  • Guys, I'm frozen! Like, this snow thing is getting soo old! Okay, enough of the valley girl...but it's freaking cold here! (Thanks, Joey, for the quote.) Frustration. Anger. Coldness. Mad. Frozen. Cold.

  • Today was happy. To quote Izzy, "vewy vewy happy." I got to go back to Blue Ridge, for one. And Dr. Farris is teaching a home group. And then Nick and I discussed "'ologies and 'isms" to the extent that we missed dinn…

  • I can't believe I stayed up the entire night talking to Kirsten.

  • It's so great to be back! Day 1 classes out of the way, friendships renewed, and I have fallen in love. With Dr. Bates' Rhetoric Class, that is. I was seriously considering switching majors there for a second and major…

  • Today was a nostalgic day. I read through some of my old journals...it was really funny looking into my mind three years ago. It was also absolutely insane reading about the first time I met some people and my first impr…

  • Esquire, don't ruin my joke! No, I'm not changing colleges...I couldn't leave my friends! I love y'all! But I seriously do need a psychology degree...and now I need a shrink as well. Thanks for letting me dump on you Esq…

  • I've decided I really like Greek mythology. The Odyssey is really very funny. The only problem is that I can't pronounce, much less remember those names. According to David, there are 10 names that start with Euch-. So…
