It’s been extremely quiet on this blog for many months now for a good reason.
I am busy.
Not in that “little moments of life” way but in a work, school, and quest for creativity kind of way.
I have been very fortunate to pick up extra hours at work lately and have been close to forty hours [...]

Blockage McBlockerton
What’s worse than having writer’s block? Having writer’s block when you have to pump out a 2,000 word term paper in two days.

One More Class And All It Took…
…was a global economic meltdown.
I just found out that as part of my general education requirements for school is Principles of Macro Economics.
Thanks Wall Street.
Having said that, I’m a bit puzzled as to why it wasn’t a requirement in the first place. While we tend to think of our own individual countries as little (ok, [...]

College Algebra

Understanding Religious Traditions
Intro To Meteorology

Below is a poll with four different thesis topics. Vote for the one you think I should do as I can’t give a [...]

Lessons Learned
Life Lesson #49834 – No matter who you’re going to meet that night, always wear comfortable shoes.
How’s that for a “Hello!” after so many weeks away?
I managed to embarrass myself on Halloween by wearing the completely wrong shoes in order to look hot and in fact just made myself look like a drunken fool as [...]

I Just Spent A Day On Io…
“The Universe is Big. Really big. It may seem like a long way to the corner chemist, but compared to the Universe, that’s peanuts.”
~Hitchhiker’s Guide To The Galaxy, Douglas Adams
That is the quote that has been going through my mind as I studied [...]

A Bit Of Frustration Never Hurt Anyone
It is officially week two of school and I am frustrated.
Not because I’m still waiting for the school to send me my big fat financial aid check so I can go buy a pretty new Mac.
Not because I’m having a hard time balancing work and school and a social life.
No, it’s because for some inexplicable [...]

Enjoy The Silence
Well, school has started and so has my previously unnoticed anxiety about school. Four classes will be kicking my ass this semester, they are:
Astronomy
Earth Sciences
Intermediate Algebra
English 101
So far I am about three weeks ahead of the syllabus in Earth Sciences (thank you Prof. for making an easy to read and understand schedule), two weeks ahead [...]
