Murphys Law Gone Right

I am now a Johns Hopkins University graduate.  Do I feel any different?  No, not really.  I just have to practice saying “I just graduated from Hopkins”.  In time, I’ll get used to it.  After all, I just left Baltimore and began writing this blog on the tail end of my 3 day vacation at [...]

Well, I suppose this is my first time live-blogging.  I am currently watching USA vs Canada vie for the gold medal.   I have so dearly loved watching the Olympics, it will be sad tonight when they end. Throughout the last two weeks I have gone to Olympic parties, dressed up as a curler, had watching/studying [...]

It’s good to be back.  Not only have we had a break from blogging, but a whole week off of class as well.  The Snowpacalypse hit the D.C. metro area and paraylzed Baltimore for an entire week.   The unexpected blizzard arrived on Friday February Fifth.  While I typically work in D.C. on Fridays, I was afraid the [...]

I wrote the beginning before the start of the semester… As I write this, I am on the train on my way back to Baltimore.  While I’m excited to be back and see all of my friends, I’m a bit sad to leave home.  It’s kind of crazy to think that there is very little [...]

After being away for so long, I feel like I’ve forgotten how to live.  Everyday norms are a stretch for me.  For instance,  it is now October and I should be wearing a jacket.  I’m not biking anywhere…I don’t have to anticipate that biking will make me warm.  I should have a jacket.  It’s things [...]

So, now I am a junior.  It's interesting really, I feel like such an adult even though shockingly, I'm still 19.  After such a whirlwind summer, it is nice to settle down in one place for four months.  I realized the other day that I can't wait until I have a permanent home.  Seriously!  In [...]

Okay, so this past week has seriously exhausted me.  I had sooo much stuff to do and so little time.  Today, I feel a bit more relaxed despite the fact that I have a midterm on Monday.  This week and next week are still infinitely better than last week.  Did you follow that? Also, today [...]

Another year and another post!  I am very excited to be back, both blogging and at Hopkins.  I feel great and optimistic in regards to just about everything, but in particular my suite.(The abstract picture is a kandinsky that I bought for the kitchen of our suite).  I feel like I will better manage my [...]

Pie eating on Gillman’s hallowed steps. The first thing I wanted to tell you about was something I had not previously mentioned in my blog about Spring Fair: the pie eating contest!  It was right outside of Gilman on Saturday during the fair.  The contest was organized by Cooking4Love, a group that makes warm meals [...]

I’ve been waiting all year to use that as my title, but finally it is true.  It’s raining in Baltimore, part of the storm that AOL news claims may be the biggest storm in 25 years.  So, that is relatively exciting.  The good news is that it is Spring Fair, the bad news is that [...]
