Where I’d rather be . . .

bad school camps story

Ow! I just scalded my hand with hot Starbucks coffee! Hmm, should I sue?
Back in the library tonight to study for comps. We’ve been told we’re over-studying, but I’d rather do that than under-study. I’m feeling pretty good about it anyway, it’s just nice to review everything thoroughly, including [...]

Lazy Sunday

The silence in the library carrel I’m sitting in contrasts loudly with the strains of music from a band playing in the amphitheater area outside my window. Apparently today is Homecoming Kickoff. Who knew? I see food out there, wonder if it’s free. There’s a smallish crowd gathering, but I’m sure [...]

That’s more like it!

Now THAT was a football game!  Getting to see Georgia beat Florida is great enough on it’s own, but the fact that they played well and played hard just made it all that much better.  If only they could have done that 3 weeks ago
I spent the morning and early afternoon studying in [...]

Don’t Throw Down On K-Town

 
I’m studying, really, I am. But a comment made by my dad a few weeks ago after I knocked Knoxville and after a conversation the other night with some friends, I feel I owe it to K-Town to mention a few things I DO like about this place. In no particular order, they [...]

French toast and climbing

I just worked some serious kitchen magic for dinner tonight.  I wasn’t feeling like fish and I eat way too much cereal, so I managed to pull enough ingredients together for glazed banana french toast and cheesy scrambled eggs.  Yum!  Ok, so I don’t know if the bananas were really “glazed,” but they were pretty [...]

At a loss for words

Don’t feel like I have much to say tonight. Lots going on in my head that doesn’t really translate well into words! But I’m trying to write every day, so here’s some random drivel.
The final season of Scrubs starts tomorrow night, kinda sad that it’s ending, definitely one of the best shows on [...]

3028A

Once again, where is the week going?!  Camp was great, as always, though this time it felt a lot less stressful.  Not sure if it’s because I’ve done it 4 times before or because I wasn’t in charge this time or what, but it was a fun time.  Exhausting, but fun.  The campers did 8 [...]

I’m outta here

Ack!  Where did the week go?!  I’m supposed to be at camp in an hour and I haven’t finished packing or taken a shower.  Too bad I can’t write and shower at the same time.  This weekend, I’ll be helping with arts and crafts and cooking.  Not really my first choice of activities and I’ll [...]

Some said it was the hand of destiny, others felt it was heat stroke

ABC’s Pushing Daisies is just brilliant. Plain and simple, brilliant. It’s got the feeling of a Dr. Seuss fantasy with a witty George of the Jungle narrative all mixed up with a few healthy doses of murder-mystery/love story and beautifully era-less costuming and setting. If you’ve seen it, that sentence probably made [...]
