No one should be surprised when they hear that I did not reach my own deadline of having my memior psuedo-published before school started. Obviously impossible. I can never adhere to my own deadlines… now if someone else places it for me, that’s a whole different story.
Anyway, I’m not giving up. There are mini courses [...]

The hard part is that I am trying to write about a live I no longer have. It was always my fear as I started this – that all those things that I learned, that I experience, were going to slip away. It’s true. I just finished watching the Woody Allen movie “Vicky Cristina Barcelona” [...]
The business of things

It’s something I’ve learned about in my human resource classes: we’re a generation of encouragement. We’ve been coddled, been told we’re special, been told we can achieve anything we believe in ever since we were born. Businesses have to change what they have done for years – in years past so long as you didn’t [...]

5) Writing a Memoir
6) Reading books
7) Playing Text Twist
8 ) Hanging with Friends
I hope the change the order of those a bit but honestly, it’s not that bad. Perhaps you’re [...]

This is an entry that would normally be made in my normal journal, but I carelessly left it in Madison with the rest of my other belongings – obviously forgetting that the tendency for my parents to go to bed around 10 every night (far too early for me) gives me plenty of time to [...]

I am doing everything that I can think of instead of studying for my exams… ffffml (that’s it! I’ll read the FML blog! Hahahaha). Kidding, I did that already recently, I need to study before I do that.
However, a nice blog post is always in order. Justin and I went to Figueres today to see the [...]
I would rather have AIDS than be lactose intolerant, like Maxwell

Pasta, is a really easy thing to forget to chew. Or, perhaps not even “forget to chew” but just not chew sufficiently. And then, as you are about to take another bite of course, you get that crazy feeling of your last bite slowly sliding down, through your body and you wonder for a second [...]
I even told a joke today in Spanish… that was FUNNY!

So, I would really like to take back my statements about being uncomfortable here, in my home stay. Okay, maybe not take them away completely because sometimes it is still awkward; but for the past three nights we have had a wonderful supper – all together – and have had great conversations besides. What’s more, [...]

I feel as if everything that I am doing is my last. Like all of my actions need to be properly measured, because I need to savor it all. I am currently sitting with my toes in the sun, because I really don’t like the idea of not soaking in some of the Barcelona sunshine [...]
