Sticks and stones.
It’s hard to hear someone say you just aren’t worth his time. It’s especially hard to hear when you’ve been trying so hard to keep him in your life.

Call it a gut feeling.
This is going to be an incredibly long week—you really have no idea.

This is a man's world.
I honestly love the fact that my floor is about 70% male. I mean sometimes the smell is a little bothersome, the sound level can reach obnoxious, the toilet seat always being up get annoying, and I definitely wish they could figure out how to clean a kitchen; but it’s really fun nonetheless. The random conversation topics range from video games to what is so amusing about talking babies...

Winter Wonderland.
The high today—24 degrees Fahrenheit. The theme of the weekend—ultimate.
Last night was spent hanging out with Columbia ultimate. Today was spent playing ultimate with my winter league team. I’m incredibly exhausted, rather sore, and I still have not felt warm since returning to my dorm; but it’s all been incredibly worth it. I am so happy to have found this sport,...

Let's call it a comeback.
Half way through the day, I had decided this was what my blog for the day would be about—the return of stress. My physics book, writing homework, and two unfortunately stressful e-mails. A few hours later though, my day got significantly better. One stressful e-mail was taken care of, I realized physics can wait until tomorrow, and I remembered that I actually like my writing class (and...

Going on a cool adventure.
Another day of new classes, but not one that counts as a first day of school. Haha. It was a pretty relaxed day, but adventuresome nonetheless. In calculus, we learned what numbers are! And why drunk humans have a better chance of finding their way home than drunk birds. Oh and that we should “never ever try to visualize a space of dimension four or higher, because it is very...

Bad weather and dining halls.
It’s weird having a second first day of school in the same school year. In a way though, not much has changed. The classes changed, the teachers changed, the people around me changed a bit too. The feeling is still pretty much the same though—just a little bit newer. Like buying a new pair of the same shoes you already owned. The second first day of school doesn’t quite...

The start of something new.
Semester number two of college starts at 9am. I’ve honestly never tried to take on so much in my life. And please, do not tell me I’m exaggerating or that I’m perfectly capable of doing this or that I’ve done something like the before. The truth is I am not exaggerating, I’m not sure how capable I am, and I really never put myself in a position of having to work...

You had a bad day?
That makes a bad mood justifiable. I had a good day though—a fantastic day even. So why is today the day that all this other stuff is getting me down?
The pursuit of happiness.
I firmly believe the world would be a much happier place if everyone would use their turn signals while driving. And not just use them, but use them properly (i.e.: before changing lanes/turning).

It's a little bit funny.
Not our conversations—those are hilarious—but this sort of new friendship we’re forming. It only took us six years of seeing each other constantly and four months without seeing each other at all to figure out how to be friends. I’m happy things are seeming much less awkward now though. And even though I like to threaten you’ll lose your place, secretly I know...
