holy shit.
i have a 3.94 gpa
i could graduate from college with a 4.0.
glad that i just got home home from the bar and it’s nearly 1 am and i haven’t done any packing whatsoever and i have to be at the airport at 5:30 am. this wouldn’t be a problem if i didn’t have 2 loads of laundry to do.
drunk packing is the most interesting i guess.
finally meeting my twin 15 year old cousins who my aunt and uncle adopted from ethiopia last year! i’m excited.
lovethrivebreathe asked: you're kind of my favorite. just saying.

got straight A’s again this semester. i’m pretty happy. i haven’t gotten anything lower than an A- since sophomore year when one time i got a B+ in stats. and this was also my first time working and going to school.
i need a 3.906 to graduate summa cum laude and i think i’m at a 3.89 right now so. all A’s again next semester i suppose.

dear american apparel,
i know you try to concentrate on naked boobs, vaginas and lady asses most of the time but seriously. what what what are you doing with your male models.
who is dressing them? they look scraggly and either like over-the-top hipsters or broskis.
i bought a shawl collared rugby sweatshirt in the store today and went to the page for it on the aa website to find some outfit inspiration. the...

A guy in my psychology class said he thought...

Me: Okay so if orientation is a choice, choose to be gay, right now. Him: No. Me: Why not? Him: Because I don’t find men attractive Me: So CHOOSE to find them attractive Him: ……. I can’t. Me: Sorry, WHAT was that? You CAN’T????
we need to get beyond this argument that being gay is not a choice, because guess what? for some people it IS a choice. I do know women...
life update
in a year or two i might get a masters in teaching to become a high school social studies teacher. we’ll see. it’s obviously a long way off and i should probably do some volunteer work to make sure that i really like teaching first. but i love history and cultural geography and anthropology (which is my minor) and social studies would combine all three. i’m just not really...

normally i don’t gush about sarah, i usually just say she’s being cute or silly or whatever. but seriously? i am amazingly lucky. i am beyond ecstatic to have such an intelligent, hilarious, silly, supportive, playful, responsible, caring and beautiful partner. she compliments me in thousands of ways and yet, challenges me in ways i need it. i am so excited to begin my...
all i want to do right now is sit inside my living room in amherst and drink tea and be super super cozy and watch it snow.
doesn’t look like that’s going to happen for a while though…new england needs to get its act together. i’ve now used my shearling-lined bean boots more in portland than i have in amherst. and this is also my last year in new england, for now.

maybe i’m a little bit sad about leaving portland on thursday.
in a weird way it kinda feels like i’m leaving home for the last time. which is weird, because in a few months i’ll be back and moving only 3 hours away, instead of living across the country.
christmas things
i wish that more of my dad’s cousins still lived in seattle, because i miss driving up there on christmas day and opening presents there. but alas, i’ll be living there next year!
so instead my dad and i are going to do our usual christmas thing that we’ve done since i was about 5 (the years that we didn’t go to seattle) and we’re getting dressed up and going to the...
ralphie from a christmas story is my soulmate because i would totally leave someone with their tongue stuck to a pole just because i was about to be late to class.

so far christmas is pretty good. my toilet broke this morning so i’m pretty sure god or whoever hated me for a while. but i went to my mom’s house and baked rugelach and went out for dinner and did presents and i might be getting a basically brand new vw passat from the parents of a family friend because they can’t drive anymore. so that’s exciting news.
right now...

things i might/hopefully/am crossing my fingers get for christmas.
it’s too pretty. and i’m going to feel all kinds of professional and like a badass when i walk around campus. but i’m not counting on getting it or anything.
I just want to stay at powell’s books and read books about arts and crafts bungalows forever.

got a haircut yesterday and have now been mistaken for a boy for 95% of my day.
went into the levi’s store to get a belt, asked about their 50% off sale on women’s belts and was repeatedly guided to the men’s section. pretty sure that’s the first time that that’s happened. i told the guy that i couldn’t fit into men’s belts and i think he was really...
