Boredom from being a successful student
Image by Earlham College via Flickr In two days, I will be graduating with my Bachelor of Arts in English with honors might I add. I feel very privileged to be graduating with such an honor, I don’t want Friday to come. I don’t because that will mean an end to my undergraduate career. I know,Continue reading “Boredom from being a successful student”
another hot day
Today at work, we celebrated Paul’s promotion to full professor. The only downside was that the party was outside on the patio which made the whole thing very excruciatingly hot. I thought I was going to die the whole thirty minutes we were out there. Michelle had to make an excuse to leave the party outside inContinue reading “another hot day”
Thus it begins….
Day 1I am in search of a MFA program–actually a low residency MFA program to attend next academic year. As per my advisor I should be shopping for programs this summer, taking the GRE in the fall and have everything finalized by December. Or so I’m told. Easier said than done. Today, I begin stepContinue reading “Thus it begins….”
Stalling
I should be doing my Journalism homework but instead I am surfing the web looking for new and different way to make a few bucks. When I say a few buck ….it’s literally. I mean for each thing I do I only get a few cents for each. Is it really worth it? I’m notContinue reading “Stalling”

Now that summer is coming to a close, I need to get reactivated. I need toContinue reading “The slacker is leaving the building……”

Don’t get me wrong, I love the topics we are reading about. The rich culture and background of Ireland is very intriguing. I amContinue reading “literature and headaches”
disappointing party
I was a bit disappointed in the party we planned for TJ. It was more like a retirement party than an appreciation party. I think we should have just had the BBQ or party at someone’s house like Alisa’s or Cooksey’s place. We could have bought the meat and a few drinks. But Michelle didn’tContinue reading “disappointing party”
Semester Over!
Finally! The Spring semester is over! I didn’t think it would ever end. I am so exhausted from this entire academic year. It began in the fall, carried over to the Spring. I’m sure my health issues from the beginning of Spring didn’t help matters any. Of course all the issues going on at homeContinue reading “Semester Over!”
Overwhelmed!
I am extremely relieved that the semester is finally over. Yea! But on the down side of that is now I have to really focus on my writing. For some reason this scared the shit out of me. I think it’s because now….I’m not just pretending to be a writer, I am a writer. AsContinue reading “Overwhelmed!”
