I’m driving back to Wyoming today and I’m ready to hit the gym again. I feel like the rower is an under-appreciated piece of exercise equipment. Strange because I really like it. We only have 2 in the gym at UW and I secretly believe that I’m bringing it back into popularity. Some of the…

What would you do?
My mom has 115 pairs of shoes (that I’ve found). A woman’s dream, right? Except that they are about 75% of them are the same style (loafers with a small heel) and that 98% of them are brown/black/navy blue. She has about 5 pairs of light colored shoes. I’m pretty sure my mom has a…
5: Books about families in struggle
I like reading books about hard times and families in struggle where the protagonist eventually makes it out and is a better person because of it. You know, the best kind of books. Here are some of my favorites. 01| Angela’s Ashes {Frank McCourt} An autobiography and one of my very favorite books in all…
Happy thoughts
It’s 12:40 am and I am very annoyed right now. I have a Yahoo email address which I use for storage and it has some sort of virus in it that sends some weird link to all my contacts. It’s so frustrating and embarrassing! Having a Yahoo email is inherently embarrassing, but having one that…
Life at homebase
I haven’t come home often while I’ve been at school. My first year I was 5.5 hours away, and for the past two years I’ve been 8 hours away from home. Last year, I had a summer research project with McNair and didn’t get home much, this summer I had two classes. In sum, I’ve…
What I’ve been up to
01| Drove west for 8 hours and now I’m in Omaha, NE. And if you knew how bad I am at driving, you’d be impressed this happened. 02| Saw Inception because everyone else had. I did like it. When I heard the premise of the movie, I didn’t think I would like it. It’s nice…
Friday 21: Playlist
I realized this Sunday that I forgot to post a Friday 5 last week, so I think I owe you. At the beginning of the summer I made Jeff a birthday mixed cd of some of my favorite songs or songs that just made me happy. The whole album could probably be described as a…
My new favorite cereal
Mmm. Annies Fruity Bunnies. Have you heard of Annie’s? I’m not sure if they sell them at Walmart,I always get them at Safeway. They make things like macaroni, snacks, and cereal. They make organic and natural foods. My favorite cereal used to be Cinnamon Toast Crunch, which I still like, but it was a little…
Still here!
Carissa came to visit yesterday and I’ve been bustling around with my math class and thinking about graduate school. Sorry. Look at some of the cute souvenirs she got me. {Left: cute chicken notebook, handmade!; Right: Magnets} And she also picked up some graphic design magazines for me. This one had some neat ads. Here…
Fifty Nifty…
…posts! I know that I always make fun of how tiny my audience is. But thank you for those who do come by! (WordPress is amazing because it has site stats that show you how many people look at your blog <3). I think it’s typical during an anniversary posts that I do a giveaway…
