Things!
  • I am in love with my classes. Northeastern, I feel as if you have been holding out on me with all of these incredible professors that I miraculously have my final semester of college. But it’s okay because for the first time in a longggg time I feel completely inspired by these educators. Their enthusiasm is infectious and I love it.
  • My New Years resolution of eight hours of sleep each night is perhaps the best decision I have ever made. I feel like a million dollars basically everyday. How many people can say that!? I’m sure it helps that I am also drinking (omg) so much water and abstaining from alcohol but yeah. Sleep, man. It’s the tits. 
  • I am taking a class called Voice & Articulation as a Communications elective and I am mildly obsessed with it. I have stopped listening to what people are saying entirely. All I do is analyze their vowel shapes and poor vocal habits! But really, this course is causing me to think about how I speak; which, to my dismay, is pretty terribly. I often omit the ends of words, most of my A’s are flat and nasal, and I don’t relax my tongue, ever. It boils down to laziness (oops!) and having a mother from Michigan. But I am getting better. And it’s pretty cool.
  • I think the grocery store should sell produce for people who only cook for themselves. HOLLA SINGLES SECTION OF TJ’S! But really, creatively incorporating a bag of field greens into every meal before it goes bad is kind of difficult! Everything I buy I try to use but I end up throwing more away than I’d like to. 
  • I am very thankful that I feel good about myself and my body. I think I would feel very helpless if I did not. 
  • THE PLAN: GRADUATE > GET A JOB > MOVE HOME > MOVE TO NEW YORK             Not very original, I know. I am so excited and ready to get out of here, to feel challenged, vulnerable, adventurous, excited….to MEET NEW PEOPLE! 
  • For anyone keeping track, I am still funemployed. I worked some things out that allow me to take the semester off from working part-time to focus on school (I’m taking an extra class to avoid summer in Boston) and myself and finding a full-time job. I am so fortunate to have been able to finagle this situation. Definitely good for my GPA as well. 
  • I want a cape. Like a badass, heavy, wool, British, cape. With big buttons, and arm holes. 
  • This weekend I am going to make Valentine’s Day cards! 
  • This weekend I am going to perfect my resume! 
  • This weekend I am going on a nice long winter run! 

You should probably watch this! (because it’s a Madonna kind of evening) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=snsTmi9N9Gs
