about this blog, I’ve just been busy. Busy, and a little overwhelmed, but not all the time. But that might be also because all of my classes are clustered on Tuesday/Thursday. Oh well, an almost four-day weekend is pretty nice.
So I’ve settled on my classes…I’m now taking:
Latin MF 9:30-10:20, T/Th 9-9:45
Intro to Astronomy T/Th 9:55-11:10, [...]

So instead of trying to get my life together to start classes tomorrow, I spent the entire day lounging around doing nothing with friends. It was great to be reunited, but wow am I not prepared for classes to begin.
So I basically had a crisis last week where I decided that I can’t major in [...]

It’s so strange being back. It doesn’t quite feel like it’s a new semester, but rather almost like a new year, like this is my sophmore year already, not freshman. Oy vey does that mean it’s going to feel like i’m going to college for 8 years?
Still, I guess that’s not so bad because I [...]

It’s been almost a week since I’ve seen this movie, and I meant to write about it right afterwards, because the Coen Brothers have once again created a masterpiece, but I’ve been so bad with keeping up-to-date with posts. Then I was going to write about it again after the “Golden Globes”, a.k.a. a glorified [...]

Despite my New Year’s resolution to keep up with blogging more, it’s been a few days since I’ve posted. It’s not that I’ve forgotten, I’ve just been quite busy with working at Swarthmore.

So it’s been a few days since the New Year and I’ve been taking on the frustrating, tiresome, and seemingly unending task of cleaning out and streamlining my wardrobe. Yesterday I cleaned out 4 large bags of clothing to be donated, and yet somehow my closets and drawers are still full.
In thinking about what I [...]
Atonement
Posted in Art & Fashion, Books, Movies on January 3, 2008 | 3 Comments »
13-year old Briony Tallis is a budding writer with a dangerous imagination, one that causes her to mix up fantasy and reality, one that causes a lie that destroys the lives of Cecilia, her sister, and Robbie Turner. Wrecked by guilt, it is only years later that Briony seeks atonement.
I first read the book Atonement, [...]
So this is the New Year…

the proper line to follow that would be “and I don’t feel any different…”, but to say that would be untrue. Looking back on 2007, it was a first time for a lot of things: I turned 18, I made a nature documentary, I graduated from high school, I got and held down my first [...]
