So, as the temperatures continue to be ridiculously frigid, I venture more and more often out of my apartment (which honestly isn't as warm as I would like it to be. Mind you, I don't trust my internal thermometer, but the building hallway is SO MUCH warmer than my apartment, which I find rather strange).… Continue reading A Very Merry Christmas to you and you and yes, you!

So today I tried to start up Firefox. And it wouldn't start up properly. In fact that whole window just disappeared. And then the whole computer decided it wouldn't like me anymore — Ctrl Alt Delete didn't even bring up the appropriate screen. So I reset the computer, as it appeared to be frozen, but… Continue reading If my computer were human… it would be ancient…

So it's my Favorite Season of the year: yes, that's right, the Christmas/holiday season. And no, that doesn't mean I'm religious or anything (I'm not). I just happen to rather like the holiday season, and the Christmas music rocks (what can I say, I'm addicted), well at least most of it's pretty good (there's some… Continue reading Quick Holiday update

Another semester of school is finished for me. Of course this one doesn't necessarily LEAD to anything, but it was highly educational/fun, and that counts for something, right?

Because I'm driving myself batty. If that wasn't bad, 'studying', which really isn't necessary for more… Continue reading So I'm typing a lot of these er LJ posts or something

Last night Robin and I volunteered at the Devonian Garden's Luminaria event. And the weather couldn't have been better: certainly it was cool (cold even) but the snow was light, the wind was nearly absent, and it wasn't raining. Not only that, but things cooperated for us very well: our glow stick sales table was… Continue reading The lights are warm and aesthetically pleasing…

So if things were being run the way they normally are regarding my Grad school application, the deadline for scholarship applications would be December 15th. Which is in oh… just over a week. Which isn't much time. Of course the application isn't available (nor are the details) regarding any of the general awards competition scholarships.… Continue reading Wondering how the economy is affecting scholarships… or otherwise…

Every year around this time, people start asking me what I want for Christmas. And while I'm very tempted to reply with something like for my dreams to come true or World Peace or some other beautiful, unlikely, intangible like true love, I know that they are looking for answers more in the realm of… Continue reading Christmas Wish List (as per popular demand)
