If there is ever a comma that I feel confidently about, it’s the Oxford comma. Although some style books say that it’s not necessary, I think it makes perfect sense. The Oxford comma (also called the serial comma) is the comma used before a coordinating conjunction in a series: The flavors were chocolate, strawberry, and…
5: Goals for winter break
I’ve found that I’m usually over-ambitious with all the things that I can accomplish over breaks, so I’m going to try to restrain myself this time. 01 | Update my website by taking some photos of the real print-outs and mock ups. Maybe dabble in teaching myself some CSS/HTML. One day I’ll like to have…
Come rain or shine…
Very excited to have photos of my cd packaging that I turned in to ADCD. I didn’t do as much as I wanted to, which is a little sad. But I was also very happy to take a break. concept: I created a compilation CD that can be played whether you’re having a good day…
Falling down mountains
(aka snowboarding) Carissa was a bonafide CHAMP! Whereas I spent most of the trip in a variety of these positions. Hey, I’m not athletic and I was still tired from finals week! Going down mountains is scary!
5: PM

Make the most of your sleep
Carissa showed me this website and I thought it was neat. It gives you a suggestion on when you should sleep according to average sleep cycles (though yours might be different). Give it a whirl! I wish I knew about this sooner.
Finals Week
Horrible. And yet, similar to almost every week in this semester except that I still have food left over from thanksgiving and so don’t have to cook (dumplings for breakfast!). Just letting you know I’m somehow still alive. Don’t feel obligated to read my schedule, its so I can remember how much I hate this…

New & Improved!
Dun-dun DUH-D-DAAA! My website is up! I don’t know when I would have gotten this done if my English class hadn’t forced me to work on it. It’s not perfect yet, I really hope I’ll be able to get some better picture up over Christmas break and then I think it would ten times better.…
