  • Is it so wrong to want to buy a pair of shoes? Apparently it is because I spent hours today shopping for shoes and didn't find a single pair to try on. Everything looked so grandpa-ish. All I wanted was a nice dress c…
  • I drove 2 hours to my parents' house today even though I was dead tired and nodded off a couple times on the interstate....I'm lucky we have the rumble strips. The whole purpose of this trip is because they said they co…
  • Ok I had this debate with a friend, and now I want your opinions. Popped collars or no popped collars? why?
  • I've calmed down since I posted a little while ago. I just get so frustrated because I put a lot of effort into making sure my work is done well and it seems like so many other people just don't care. I got my fourth a…
  • I am soooooo mad right now. I am the project manager for my group in Operations Management, which doesn't bother me to be the leader of a group. Anyway, tonight we were supposed to meet to revise/edit/discuss each pers…
  • What happened to the weather? I wasn't expecting it to be so cool when I walked outside today. My printer is taking forever to print my management paper. It's only 22 pages long and the printer is supposed to be able …
  • So I've got this weird craving. I want a double cheeseburger and a peanutbutter fudge shake. This may not seem weird for most people, but I only rarely eat beef and then it's most definitely not ground, and I don't eat…
  • Today, for the first time I could say "yes, I do like k-state." K-state isn't an Ivy, but it doesn't claim to be either. K-State offers highly respected programs--especially in business, engineering, architecture, agri…
  • This week has started out so much better than the crap-tastic week I had last week. I spent 5-6 hours in the library last night studying financial statements for my exam tonight. I not only think that I did very well o…
  • I have never been so annoyed while trying to find an article. I've googled it, I've searched the library catalogue, I've looked in the e-journals that the library subscribes to. I've gotten nothing except an abstract a…
  • I've been in the library for 5 hours now studying for my accounting exam. I must say that I am much more productive when I'm here. There is no temptation to turn on the TV, the area isn't cluttered like my room, it's w…
  • Today is so much cooler than it has been lately, and it's rained all day. I guess I'm much happier with the rain than with the snow that I heard fell in I believe Ohio. I have never before had a professor that would wa…
  • I have the ARTS channel on this morning while I'm getting ready, and there is one major difference I've noticed between classically trained and performance trained pianists. A classical pianist doesn't move above the el…
  • The weather this weekend was just a tad cooler that what I would call perfect. Though, at night is was cool. Tonight was the outstanding accounting banquet at the country club. First, I want to say that I would have g…
  • When did everyone decide to grow up, get their significant other, get hitched, and leave me in third grade with a facade of maturity?
  • Your Inner European is French! Smart and sophisticated. You have the best of everything - at least, *you* think so. Who's Your Inner European? Your Life Path Number Is 8 8 You are focused on lea…
  • Is it possible to be incredibly happy for a person, and insanely jealous of that person at the same time? Tonight Beth came to the rescue for a much needed break. The film festival was interesting. All of the entries …
  • I'm tired of trying so hard and always falling short. I've worked hard for my operations management course, and yet I still don't have the grade that I should. I'm taking 19 hours this semester and in all 16 other hour…
  • OMG.....I did laundry today. But, I've seemed to have misplaced an entire load of it. It was one with all my dark polos, t-shirts, socks, and underwear. So I went back to check and see if it possibly got set out on o…
  • Yes or No on the new look? EDIT:/I'm really really hungry for some Italian food. It started off reading a post about lasagna, and then on FoodTV the theme for the morning seems to be Italian. Now the problem is that s…
  • I have never felt more stupid that when I'm working on my physics lab. I'm so glad that next week is the last time I have that class. Then, no more science classes. YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!
  • Recently several people/friends have called me a prude, and not in a joking fashion. I guess I had never thought of myself as a prude. prude (prd)n. One who is excessively concerned with being or appearing to be …
  • Today I was in the elevator of my building and there were some prospective students and their parents from Boston in the elevator too, and they were complaining how hot it was here, and do we have air conditioning. I ha…
  • Your Linguistic Profile: 50% General American English 15% Upper Midwestern 15% Yankee 10% Dixie 10% Midwestern What Kind of American English Do You Speak?
  • I cannot believe that it has already been 10 years.
  • The DayToday is another nice day. On my way to my econ class there was a bee that would fly up to about an inch from my face, and then it would back off and then fly back up to my face. I'm terrified of bugs, especiall…
  • Today is a beautiful day. There is a nice breeze...ok some might call it wind, but by Kansas standards this is a breeze. I was outside studying in the courtyard of the Derby Complex, and after reading one chapter decid…
  • It's 8:38pm on Saturday night, and I have completely overestimated the amount of reading that I can do in one weekend. I need to read 4 chapters for Advertising, 5 chapters for Physics, and 3 chapters for Operations Man…
  • Tonight I feel like a bottle of wine, a movie, and someone to watch it with.
  • I'm sitting here in the business student lounge, doing what else but browsing xanga. I ran across this colorgenics test today on a xanga, and it was very very accurate in it's analysis. "Enough is enough - you feel fru…
  • There are a few people's xangas that I really enjoy reading. Tonight I learned that one of those xangas will no longer be continued. I found this disappointing because I always enjoyed how he recounted his interesting …
  • Today is super nice out, my mood is much much better, and I was able to sleep well after my verbose entry last night. This morning I had an interesting experience at the student id center. Half of the magnetic strip on…
  • Today was...I don't really know what today was....today was one of those days where I should have just stayed in bed. Nothing bad happened today, and nothing was out of the ordinary, the weather was nice, and the sun ca…
  • Ok, I know I've been making entries like crazy lately, and here is yet another one. A QuestionToday a girl in my advertising class offered to pay me to tutor her next semester in college algebra and economics. She said…
  • My days seem to go much better if I get up no later than 7. It gives me time to watch the Today show while getting ready. The mornings are also the time I have the best luck getting homework that I don't want to do don…
  • I've been moderately productive today. I did both of my assignments that aren't due until next week. The intermediate micro one was really long compared to normal and most of the questions were in an essay format. I a…
  • EDIT://Ok, I found low quality copies of some of the pictures. I at least have a few from each city. The new puzzle is looking through the new WWII memorial across the reflecting pool towards the Lincoln Memorial. I'm…
  • I'm now back in Manhattan. I've decided that I think it's better to travel Sunday night instead of Monday morning because in the morning the police are out patrolling during the morning commute, and at night you don't h…
  • EDIT:// OMG....I HATE tornadoes.....they freak me out so bad. And right now there are tornadoes in the area. I'm trying to keep myself calm. The winds in town have stopped and there isn't any rain right now. The sky…
  • Today my Dad helped me build the ramp for my operations management group's project; I can tell that he's a engineer. The quality of it is very impressive (the only mistake is one where I cut in the wrong place), and th…
  • Random Thoughts I'm finally going to learn to press my own clothes rather than sending them out. This should be interesting to see how I do with this, but I've decided it's crazy to pay someone to do what I can easily …
  • I love comments and I love subscribers. I don't know why but it makes my day better. I'm going to my parents' house for the weekend so that I can do some laundry for free, and get my Dad to help me build a ramp for lau…
  • OMG....I'm so happy. For the first time since I've been in college I've gotten all the classes that I wanted, and in the time slots that I wanted. This keeps me on track to complete my undergraduate in 4 (2 more to go)…
  • I made a puzzle for the top of my xanga out of a picture I found online. I'm almost positive that it's of Place du Tertre, but I do know that that is Sacre Coeur in the background so I at least know I'm in the right are…
  • Today is a nice cool day. I can't decide if I like it or not. I used to like grey skies because it reminded me of Europe, but when it's cloudy and rainy it's not conducive to studying outside on the grass. But it does…
  • I'm looking at the unofficial results of the Kansas Marriage Amendment as reported by the Secretary of State's office, and what are considered even the most liberal counties in Kansas have voted in favor of the amendment…
  • LAW SCHOOL LAW SCHOOL LAW SCHOOL I guess you can tell what's on my mind. It's been something that I've thought about off and on for years. There were 3 classes in high school that I enjoyed: Accounting, Economics, and…
  • I got my second exam back today for intermediate microecon, and I got a 98.5% on it. I was pleased. The instructor once again used my exam as the key, but I can't figure out the logic behind her grading. Oh well my gr…
  • I went to see the movie Kinsey tonight. I thought it was a very well made film. The way it was composed was very tasteful. The only aspect that I didn't like had nothing to do with the film; it was that I had to go al…
  • I decided to go outside and work on my accounting readings and problems, so after 2 hours out there I read both chapters, but didn't do the problems because the wind was picking up and that would mean that all my charts …
  • This room looks so much better. I cleaned it, put everything back in it's proper place, and now I feel so much better. Cluttered/unclean spaces drive me crazy. I also browsed the net looking for sunglasses. I find s…
