  dum de dum Spring is here. Jump in the air, spin around, turn cartwheels. It now looks like I will be volunteer tutoring, and that makes me all happy inside. In my dream last night I found a way to both keep my volunteer positions and attend SMBI fifth term. It involved a lot…

Random Man in my dream: So, you have a new car now? Me: Yeah. Well actually it’s my Dad’s. I mean, he bought it. (At this point the man gave me a weird look, and I was nervous, thinking maybe I looked like a spoiled rich girl, that my dad would buy me a car.)…

This is a post about multiple things. About why I haven’t been posting, about books I’ve been reading, and about valentine’s day. Why I haven’t been posting I mostly don’t like to fill my blog with depressed rants. Sometimes, if I do feel depressed, I avoid my blog along with my email and my phone. I…

Yesterday evening the sun shown through the icicles as it set, making them glow. “This is so beautiful,” I thought. I went to bed, and when I got up the sun was shining through the icicles again. “This is strange,” I thought. “How can the sun shine through the icicles as it rises, and also shine…
