Update on academic year
This is what separates this blogger from summer liberation:
-1 paper due on the most deleterious effect of contemporary consumerism (this class has spent the entire semester depressing me to no end)
-2 final papers due after the last day of classes
-1 epic paper revision that essentially defines my past four years of academic existence
-1 group project presentation and paper [probably the most...
The internet is a wonderful invention that allows you to quote resources and find page numbers for these quotes from resources you’ve never even seen! Thx Google Books Search function.

succesfully writing and completing a really good mid term paper is a lot less satisfying when it was due yesterday. oh, college.
apology
sorry for recent lack of student female insight and slightly less blonde hairs. associate ohcollege blogger has abandoned this old chestnut for a better and brighter psuedo-anonymous internet identity (see self-promotion on feb. 10). IRL, we’re still a pretty fearsome twosome. no worries.

As a college junior:
1. Apparently, I still can’t write a paper. thx prof. paper commentary.
2. Also, I can’t locate library books placed in numerical order. thx bobst assistant for the locating help.
3. I can, however, get the attention of my high profile Broadway musical-producing professor with my charm and sharing of relevant blog posts. Feels good to be called by first name in...
Random thoughts on my affinity for animals and...
It’s not so much that I’m scared of vermin. I have picked up and set free many a spider, ant, or caterpillar. I do not run from daddy long-legs and even know the interesting fact that they are not actually spiders but insects (6 legs). My favorite animal is the anaconda and in one of the high points of my life I got to hold one last year. Did you know that the capybara is the...

“Twentieth century attempts to “export” profitable development from capitalist states did not succeed in abating poverty because of the conception of capitalism as a system of wealth-for-profit.”
Yep, looks like it’s college time again. Urghlghgurgle gurgle gurgle.

Dear cute boy at party last night,
You probably actually won’t be calling me because I spent so long telling you about how getting an iPhone changed my life, but how I’m like, totally not materialistic or anything, then I got distracted for 45 minutes, then I made fun of some girl for having dandruff. Bad first impression!

Me: Oh, umm, lo siento, no habla espanol.
GIE: (shakes head; then, in perfect English:) So are you new...

Crisis
Whenever I’m home I get bored but whenever I’m at work I want to be home watching Family Guy eating ramen in bed.
Crackhead in Union Square yesterday, wearing massive weave, told me I had “great legs and great tones.” Then he showed me his sketchbook full of lewd drawings of penises and Asian girls he sees on the train. Then he gave me his home phone number and hotmail email address. I was too weak to resist the overtures! -A

Declared sick day yesterday and watched movies all day.
Drop Dead Gorgeous is a staple film for any such occasion. When little Lisa Swenson showed up, immeasurable grief. Like, distractingly sad. What a sweetheart! She just loved New York! Her parents only had her because Peter needed that kidney!
Too soon, Brittany Murphy.

When i get there i call him and he says, “okay, are you...

desperately miss:
Now that my best friend is home in the U.S. but also home in her home-home, I am missing this time last year, post-finals, when all we did was dick around all day for like a week and she played Age of Empires CONSTANTLY and I watched a lot of MTV and the only thing better we had to do was go to the Olive Garden in Times Square.
THIS IS BACK

Miluji tě as well, my love.
Missing you from across the Atlantic.
Also yesterday as a special treat, the building manager and RAs unlocked the doors to the balconies on the top floor, to reveal the most beautiful collection of nearing-a-century old buildings surround a courtyard, as well as a breathtaking view of the city. It’s too bad the policy of this corporation that is our University prevents me from experiencing...
