Wow. Noise party. Entirely pointless parade to get completely trashed or yell like an idiot and play with fire and wake up half of Portland. Extremely fun, honestly. It felt like a bit of Puerto Rico had come with me, because it was just so noisy! And, to be honest, I screamed my share of [...]

I type this on my brand new white MacBook with it’s funky keyboard (the keys are too far away from each other!) at around 11:40 pm trying really hard to not wake up my roommate. I think I might have failed earlier when I launched it and it played its weird-ass music. Oops. Anyway, there [...]

A very brief, late update at 5 am (because someone’s crazy mother has been up since 3 am, working) which shall be expanded later on tonight. I am in the Radisson Hotel in the Northeast quadrant of Portland, blinking rather blearily at the screen as I try to shake off my jet lag. It is [...]
Today I went for an hour or so to visit my high school and my teachers for the last time before I leave (on Monday night). I’m more than a little terrified now, because they all reacted more or less the same way. “You’re going to do so well out there” and the [...]

I leave Monday night for San Juan and depart Tuesday morning.
Holy cow, Batman!
I’m only half-packed and I still haven’t seen my friends or visited my high school teachers and if I don’t, I will rue the day. I really don’t have awesome notes on the craptastic Iliad, but I can rewrite the whole thing as [...]

I got my hair cut today. You may think this isn’t a big thing but my hair has been rather dear to me, even if it is a tangled mess most of the time that refuses to help me out once in a while. So now it’s cut into a layered V-shape and it’s very [...]
So I have had a busy week!
My good friend Jim, author of the blog How Good is That?, dedicated a post all for me! It’s about my new Mac with lots of great tips. I’m a Windows user and an almost total newb at Macs. I used a Mac twice before, for the high school [...]

Trying to figure out a schedule is hard enough when you don’t actually have a class schedule yet. I wish I did sometimes; then I’d know almost exactly what sort of sleeping schedule I’m in for. However, according to my mother, I’m probably going to become more addicted to coffee than ever (is that even [...]

Green leaves gently falling to the ground, floating on the wind far away from the mother tree. Smiling men staring up at the sky from their confines, a circle of green upon green, plucked off a tree by whimsical chance…
Unfortunately for us, money doesn’t grow on trees and many times we wish it did. It [...]

Boxes overflow with things she doesn’t really need because they’re boxes that aren’t going anywhere except into that tiny dark corner in the back of her closet. Other boxes bask in the light, stacked high with books, accompanied by an open suitcase, still empty. There’s a piece of lined paper taped to the [...]
