About them grades though...


Am I the only one who is getting anxious about their grades? I’m fighting the compulsion to check and re-check to see if grades are posted every 2.5 seconds. The only thing that stops me is the niggling thought that maybe; just maybe I might not actually be happy when I see them.

Hello October



As much as I hate the fact that I’m about to fall over the edge of the calendar and into the deep abyss that is thirty; October always gives me the warm and fuzzies. It’s kind of hard to be a Grinch when the universe in all its infinite wisdom has given me a license to celebrate my sheer awesomeness and bless the world with my diva-ocity for at least one more year.
