You know you are having a rockin’ weekend when you spend Friday night studying grammar. We all feel lost, but it was amazing how we all started to get it. I am now spending hours upon hours trying to get this shit down. I haven’t touched my Xbox, my Playstation and my PSP. I am [...]

I am taking off after 11:30 so I can study for my midterm. Happy Thursday!

My brain is going to essplode. I am in my grammar class and I would like to die. We now have multiple study groups for this class and I am going to need all of them. Say goodbye to my life…yes. there it goes… **poof**

Sixty miles or more: Daytona Beach, Lakeland and Cape Canaveral are less than sixty miles from our house. If you drive to Gainseville, sixy miles, and you are already half way there. That is what we rode last weekend. Thirty miles on Saturday and another thirty on Sunday. I would like to increase that to [...]

Last night I muddled through another grammar class. It’s been hell and I feel like I’m not getting it. We were writing sentence examples on the board. Dr. Laws asked me to write one of my examples. There were comments on my handwriting. Well, they were compliments. I informed the class that my handwriting masked [...]

to write
to think
to feel this blue
for questions and answers
for bitter tastes
to understand
for unfinished homework
to be the fat girl
for a peircing to act up
to think about moving
to say thank you
for conversation
to really give up smoking
to deal with the shitty phone setup at work
to be nice
to be understanding
for the silence without my iPod
for another smoofie
for class

I am [...]

I am the Queen Mother of attempted changes. I quit smoking, rode, ran, ate healthy and avoided booze. This weekend shone as an example of my lack of self discipline. Smoking and drinking thrived, punctuated by stress and laughter with friends. I have the best of intentions, but I can’t seem to follow through for [...]

I took a cold shower this morning. That’s enough to set your day off wrong. I am in a very pissy mood and the coffee isn’t helping. Cold showers suck, unless you have no power, then cold showers are a lovely indulgence. My pores puckered beneath the trickle of mostly cold water that turned icy [...]

My little short short story for last night.

I stood behind the cigarette-scarred bar with sweaty armpits, agonizing over drink recipes. Was our high end vodka Grey Goose or Belvedere? How did you make a Cosmo? Did a dry martini have gin or vodka? An olive? Did we have olives? Where [...]

Due to heavy rain and winds expected from Tropical Storm Ernesto, Rollins College will be closed on Wednesday, August 30.  All classes in all programs, including Arts & Sciences, the Hamilton Holt School and Crummer’s Early Advantage MBA and Professional MBA Orientations, [...]

I’m just tired.I am in work early today so I am able to get off at 3 in order to be at school for class at 4. I left D sleeping among the beagles. I wish I could have joined him.
I may be in over my head. The Editing Essentials class promises to kick my [...]

My two credits shy debacle will not make the world end. I know there is a reason that this happened, and I will feel the anguish and let it go. What else can I really do? I changed my schedule. Since I have to stick around for one more semester, I delayed my science class. [...]

Update: I have to speak to the professor about the grade first. The Appeals Committee is the last step in a long line of misery.
The real blow? I am one class short of graduation. That means I have to stay till May. I am devastated. It goes back to my class transfers at Miami Dade [...]

Dear Appeals Committee:
I have encountered serious ongoing academic issues with Professor Patricia Simmons and her method of instruction for the Humanities: The Modern Period (Hum 306) in the Spring term and I would like to contest my final grade. Due to miscommunication and unprofessional practices, I was required to accept an Incomplete until last week. [...]

Cause I’m the Jaugernaut Bitch
Okay…so it’s not as bad as all that. I was feeling like shit, but then I remembered Anne and this lovely phrase and I had a little giggle. And I thought I would share the love with this little video.
This also put things into perspective. I can laugh. I can love. [...]

I tried to turn in my thesis today…guess what. No one was in any of the offices. I would like to cry.
At least it’s over….

Like the new setup? I am still trying to work out the bugs with it (meaning I am demanding D’s time to work out the bugs), but I like it. It’s not nearly as girly as the last one I had. So…on goes the thesis stuff. I keep thinking I am almost there…and then I [...]
