Hiho all. Reports of my demise have been greatly exaggerated. :hello: I'm still kicking around. Still studying to do that teaching thing. I have the remainder of this semester, and then I student teach. I have to make the decision of whether or not I want to do that from here, or home within the nex...

Oooo! Look at all the new members! It only took...5...6 years?

Welcome aboard everyone!

I'm so sorry to hear about your dad Maddy. I saw on Facebook that he went into the hospital recently. Even though it was expected, I have no doubt that this will be a difficult time for all of you (even if you weren't too attached to him, your son probably feels differently and you'll no doubt have ...

I've been following all of this happening in Boston...and once it happened I glimpsed in here to make sure all of you guys in the area were safe. I'm so glad you're all still fine. This is all surreal...and i'm hundreds of miles across the country. Everyone stay in one piece, okay?

Merry Christmas everyone! I'm pleased to report that I'm still alive and fighting! :santa: Today was the least stressful Christmas I've had in years, since we had dinner with my dad's family a few days ago and were free to visit other relatives today. I hope we can do that from now on. We also order...

*knocks on door* Mind if I drop by? Happy Thanksgiving, to those of you who celebrate it. I'm home on break for a week (it took the closing of the residence halls to get me to leave and come back here :P), but it's kinda nice. Everyone is sorta making sure I have an okay time. In general though, my ...

Hey all. Just dropping by to say that I'm still alive! The storm is projected to pass right through us...so we'll see about that in a few days, but my prediction is that by the tim it hits us it'll be a bad rainstorm. They've already cancelled classes for tonight though...it's pretty damn windy and ...

Well, after a week here on campus, I'm headed home today to work all weekend. I'd rather not go...but I kinda have to. It's the biggest golf tournament of the year. :eek: I really like it here though. It's nice and quiet, and safe feeling. I can walk around at night without fearing for my safety...a...

The moon was just beginning to appear in the sky as I was walking back from dinner...in that weird time between night and day. I sent it a wink. Though I obviously didn't experience the moon landing first hand, figures like Armstrong set the standard for many of my generation. In many ways, the Mars...

Evening everyone! I'm almost all packed and ready to move into my dorm tomorrow...my absence this month has mostly been due to personal stuff at home, and just spending as much time with my friends as I can before school starts. You know, enjoying real life. ;) Dad's being extra helpful today...slig...

Thanks guys! It was one of the most stressful vacations I've ever taken, but my birthday itself was lovely. Since I had already been back for a few days, I spent it with my best friend. We drove up to his college town to visit one of our friends whose staying the summer there. Had lunch, enjoyed the...

I honestly don't thikn I'll be bringing enough alcohol with me to make this week tolerable. :no: But I will be bringing two John Green books, one that I haven't read yet, and one of my favorites, and an iPhone full of music (including Ben Folds, who a good friend of mine just turned me on to). Sadly...

If my parents ever get to such a stage, I can only imagine that I'll handle it with quite a sense of humor. Though my dad already can't stand it that I find his "senior" moments amusing. I suppose given that so many here are having worse times than I am at the moment I have no right to com...

Oh my. Sorry to hear about your dad RJ, and your's too M. Wishing the best for both of you.

Stuff like the what just happened in CO just just serves to remind us that humans are a frightening species... Evening folks. My life has consisted mostly of work...which seems to be eating away my summer slowly and steadily. I keep telling myself to check in here, and then somehow forget. A day or ...
