The End of Plastic
I’m cutting up all my credit cards, except for my debit/atm card. All of my plastic is going into the trash in an effort to rid myself of debt and to live frugally. I’ve talked about going on a Europe, or South America trip within the next two years, but at the rate I’m going with spending what I make it will be near impossible to fund a trip.
So, the scissors are going to the...

That awkward typo.
I sent a Christmas email to some relatives and accidentally put “Satan” instead of “Santa”. Whoops…
Merry Christmas =)

This is absolutely fantastic. It’s 20 minutes long, but it’s so worth the watch. I’ve always liked what I see on TED.com, but I really connected with Brene Brown’s lecture. I think you guys will, too.
About the talk:
Brene Brown (she focuses upon vulnerability, courage, authenticity, and shame) studies human connection — our ability to empathize, belong, love. In a...

Tim: For a while I volunteered to be the DD. Designated drunk, but lately I don't know if I'm feeling it.
Me: I'm quoting you on my Tumblr with that.
Tim: What's Tumblr?
Me: The new LiveJournal.

Semester Ending
I’m so incredibly thankful the semester is done. I still have one more paper looming in the future, but in comparison to the slave labor I’ve been experiencing, it’s nothing.
I realize that most people would be out partying, but all I want to do is stay home and catch up on all the NBA action I’ve been missing out on (thank you DVR) with a beer. Which I’m going to...

Finals
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!
:(
So close. SO CLOSE TO BEING DONE. My brain is about to explode from stress.
I can’t stand anthropology right now. I am tired of talking about the Maya. I am tired of reading up on curation laws. I do not care about GIS terminology right now.
I just really want some good quality sleep…and I am hanging on to my sanity by a thread.
Bleh.

Birthdays, and things...part 2.
I had a fantastic dinner tonight with all of my girlfriends. Thank you all for coming out to celebrate and making this something special. Turning 25 is something I’ll truly remember! I love you guys, and I’m so happy to have garnered your support and love. I hope that you’re feeling the love and appreciation from me, too. xoxoxo ♥♥♥♥♥

Birthdays, and things.
I’m one year older today. And hopefully a little smarter, kinder and wiser, too. I can’t really celebrate today since I have finals all this week, and I’m actually studying on my birthday. I’m having a tiny dinner with some friends tonight which will be really, really nice.
I just really need a break from everything! I’m so close to being done with finals!!!
I feel like I’ve gone warp speed from the stone age of internet to the 21st century. I can update Twitter from my tv. I am able to watch YouTube on my tv. I can watch YouTube without having to wait for the video to buffer for, like, 50 bazillion minutes. Pictures load so fast my eyes hurt. I can watch basketball in HD now. We have On Demand and “Dexter” and “Weeds”...

Yeah. I said it.
I’m pretty depressed about the next two weeks. Nearly to the point of weeping. This is the first time in quite a while that I feel utterly defeated by school…almost to the point where I contemplated just not doing the work. I guess this Tumblr post is my wah-wah for this semester.I always seem to have one “wah-wah” worthy post dealing with school problems, but for some...
I’ve been listening to Twin Sister for about a month now, but this is the first time I’ve seen any of their videos. This one just mesmerizes me. I love the guy at 1:28 lol. Totally a computer programmer picked off of the street to be in the video.
