Well, I haven’t really pounced upon this return to blogging with quite the enthusiasm my previous announcement might have suggested. Nevertheless, here I am, and starting off with a mildly mundane post about myself. In later entries, however, you may anticipate musings on the universe and bread baking.
Since the academic calendar basically regulates […]

Right now I’m sitting listening to Olga and Brianna talk back and forth in Brooklyn accents, which have been amusing since “dawg” and “tawking” slipped out of Olga. It’s like Carli’s “chawklet” issue. “What did your mutta tell you?” Brianna demands. I tried to join in on the teasing, but my “Is that a dawg? […]

I’m writing this in the time before dinner. It’s the first week back from spring break (too short!) but I seem to be keeping up with my work, despite a week of neglecting it. I’ve already gotten a paper revised, a German essay written, a pile of reading done, and some other things. Of course, […]

I’m sure more than this has happened since my last post nearly a month ago, but it’s hard to keep up.

On Friday I went with my friend Brianna to the American Museum of Natural History. It was great. She’s really into dinosaurs and bones and I like people (anthropology, of course), so we […]

Actually, Olga and I decided we should all display our good work on the refrigerator.

Not Eugene’s English paper, though, sorry.

I’ve probably had plenty to post about in the past weeks, but I had been either preoccupied, tired, or too apathetic. Actually, I’d rate last week as pretty bad overall for assorted reasons, but I suspect the lack of natural sunlight had something to do with it.
So I was pleased about this:

On Saturday I […]

Tonight I decorated two breast cupcakes as part of a cancer awareness activity. I do go to a women’s college, you know.

There might be another update of more substance soon, when I get in the mood to write one.

Last night I met with friends after studying to decide what we might do for entertainment. We settled on walking around and exploring, especially since the closest Julia had gotten that day to outside was going down to the basement.
We took some photos.

Here’s a creepy one that looks a bit like the apocalypse:

I finished […]

Today I participated in Barnard’s First Year Reach Out (FYRO) program. I was with about twenty other girls who helped out with a “farmer’s market” in the South Bronx.
Going into it, I was like, “Yay, farmer’s market. I love fruit!” City Harvest actually “rescues” food left over from restaurants, caterers, […]

This is a photo taken from the doorway on move in day (hence the handtruck and bareness).

My desk collected most of this stuff the first day I moved in, but this photo was taken more recently.

A collection of assorted friends and family members.

We like the magnetic poetry on the refrigerator.
