An interesting thing happened in media class. Our professor wanted to show us a “bad” sitcom he found detestable. So he showed us Luckie Louie. It was crass, but it was funny and he didn’t expect the class to relate so strongly to this show. To his credit, he totally rolled . . . → Read More: Luckie Louie in Media Class  Aw!! I’m so lucky a super mom who went with the girls on the field trip sent me this picture. Adorable! I’m looking forward to printing it out and framing it. I haven’t formed the thought that makes my breath catch when I look at it but it’s something about eagles soaring.

Who wouldn’t?!” Because . . . → Read More: Hiding a Gift out of Fear (or, The Only Person Who Didn’t Realize it Was Me)  It’s tough to use Democratic Socalist in a sentence.

I read the material, but I’m not applying myself as much as I should. No one to blame but myself, really. I could be spending time in the library, but my social life is important to me and sometimes I choose that instead. Why? Because I could get hit by a bus tomorrow.

So what that really means is I can’t do anything with a show on in the background on my computer. Le sigh. My friend Ro told me something last night that made me really take a step back and think about what I’m doing right now. “What you are experiencing,” She said, “is not the reputation of the college, but the culture of the college.” Let me go back. You may remember my teacher who said, . . . → Read More: The Culture of a College (or university or whatever) This is a parody post of sorts. I keep hearing that it’s important to meet your teachers, connect with them, get to know them. Who knows, maybe you’re supposed to try and play a pick-up game of hackie-sack with them. All I know is, if I don’t make then love me enough to write . . . → Read More: Meeting Teachers – Making Friends I live in the south suburbs of Chicago, so I had a lot of options for taking the October 1st LSAT.
