Disillusionment

Tonight when David and I got back from Howl’s Moving Castle (which was entertaining and odd) we pulled into the driveway behind the dorm and could hear loud music (O-Zone’s Dragosta Din Tei, to be specific) pounding from the building. Looking up, it was the room *right* below mine and there were people dancing. I […]

Home

I had all sorts of thoughts to write down yesterday, my first full day home, but I didn’t actually touch a computer the whole day. Being home feels like a different world, a different me. It never fails to surprise me how quickly I “adjust” to the change from school to home or home to […]

Movies

So they’re making movies out of both Rent and The Da Vinci Code. Who knew? Rent has a shot at being *decent*, because the cast is mostly the original Broadway cast. So I figure if they don’t change the music at least that part will be good, even if they butcher other things. But The […]

Restoration

Thank you to everyone for your warm comments in response to my last post. I had a frustrating and overwhelming day yesterday, but after a talk with someone who cares and a good cry my day ended well with an hour of WoW and a fit of inspiration in which I wrote a recursive function […]

Angry

There are angry words inside my head. Angry words which make me sad. They live inside, and I don’t want them to ever come outside. Inside they stomp around and hurt me, since they can’t reach anyone else. Sometimes they sneak out into my hands and make me want to hit things. They make me […]

Ramble…

Somewhere between the end of CS section yesterday and dinner today I think I lost my sense of reality. Yesterday was Earth Day, so I spent a few hours in White Plaza helping man a table for the Recycling Center. I also got to see Hammad briefly. After voice I went straight to Potter and […]

Important

I just found out from my dad that our (family plan) cell phone bill was obscenely high last month, thanks to me and my sister. Obviously I am taking responsibility for my cellphone use, but I’d appreciate help from people who call me (since I’m charged for incoming calls too) in the following way: Please, […]

Film scores

I just need to marvel at the genius and productivity of the best film composers: John Williams, Hans Zimmer, Howard Shore, James Horner. The four of them have composed the scores for most of my favorite films and of many, many of the top films of the past few decades. They are the giants of […]

Sister

I love my sister. Even when it is raining and I have spent all day reading for class, it is impossible to be unhappy when listening to Michael Jackson and Whitney Houston on the CD that she made me.

For some reason I’m doing memes instead of work…

First day of classes.  They all seem good, although it’ll be a lot of work this quarter.  Feeling pretty on top of things, and taking a break after class from 10 to 4 by doing silly memes on LJ. – Bold those you have read – Italicize those you started, but didn’t finish – Add […]
