this week's challenge
getting everybody to agree that it will be alright living in a house with 8 people.
I have been cluttering my free time making amigurumi animals. I made two by crocheting in the back loops and making my third one (as a present) in both loops since that seems to be the “right way”. I messed up on this stripe pattern and I’ve already finished that part of the animal so I am not going to fix it. I hope that’s ok! Tomorrow I’m going to this Chinese New...
I am currently baking green onion and goat cheese (that I got with a $2 discount) muffins for tomorrow’s mini potluck. I get to see my boyfriend in about a month away and my nails are colored in “coral flame”. I am excited about the first fun fact like a lot a lot. I’m still alive and doing things like waking up to get to work and eating yogurt and hit’s ha hlot hof...

bridesmaids wasn’t even good. women have been fucking funny and brilliant and raunchy forever. it’s just not until we start shitting in sinks on screen that anyone seems to give a fuck.
YES.
week one
We’ve been signing people up at the learning skills lab where I work (it’s basically a tutoring center) and you do not know how many times I explained the requirements for this “class”. I am basically a pro and could probably break it down to you right now if you asked. I got home to a whole stack of packages and letters which made me very happy! Two books—a...

Every once in a while I like to reward myself with a sugary treat and today, I’m doing just that! The reward is for no great feat, only that school is starting up tomorrow. Though, I’m worried because I haven’t gotten my books yet and they were shipped on the 3rd. This book site is making me frustrated; I recently had a book just never arrive and I’m trying to get a refund....

I want to wish everybody a happy new year. I’ve been having lots of fun this break and really glad about seeing everyone as much as I can. I’m making tentative plans for two trips this semester—Princeton and Puerto Vallarta—which I am excited about! I will hopefully be staying in Princeton for a week and a one month stay in Puerto Vallarta, where I’ll be helping out...

I am on a crocheting spree! Other than preparing study packets for finals, I am crocheting like a mad dog. I also got these cute fabric tags that say “crocheted by…” which I can use for gifts. AND renewed my supply of string so that I can make bracelets again. I’m so excited! Right now, I am not too worried about my finals and I only have one (geology) that I am worried...

“I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead; I lift my lids and all is born again. (I think I made you up inside my head.)
The stars go waltzing out in blue and red, And arbitrary blackness gallops in: I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead.
I dreamed that you bewitched me into bed And sung me moon-struck, kissed me quite insane. (I think I made you up inside my head.)

mollyyoung:
I wrote about this blue-eyed man for GQ, which chose him as one of their Men of the Year.
Before the interview, I was warned that Fassbender “is ADD” and that during our talk I should get to the point. This is a typical thing for a publicist to say, and it does not mean that her client has…

This past weekend I’ve sent some frantic texts and emails trying to figure out what to do next semester. Sorry about that. Now I’ve got some explaining to do!
I had it planned that I wasn’t going to go to school next semester because I didn’t need to take anymore classes and I’d work somewhere fabulous instead, but I didn’t plan ahead and I found myself rushing...
