This is legitamely hard.  I have family and some good friends in this hometown.  Out of that batch-most are traveling back to their schools for New Years celebration while the remainder either don’t respond or just completely cancel on me. It doesn’t make sense.  I’m not used to feeling upset about this.  At school, I really do have a whole gathering or friends.  Actually,...

Fights
I want to be busy,  but I want to relax. I want friends, but I want family. I want sidewalks, but I want lawns. I want independence, but I was comfort and reassurance. I want lights, but I want crickets and gentle train sounds. Ugh-the battle of home (Long Island Suburbs) and home (Philly).

The home truth, and nothing but the truth.
Being home is good.  I’m not sure how to handle not being in class by 8 or 8:30am for a full day of classes, followed by meetings, followed by studying and on call nights till 7am the next day.  I’m not used to staying in PJ’s ½ the day, straightening my hair, and seeing almost every movie playing in theatres.  I’m definitely not used to cleaning up after my dogs or yelling at my brother for...

RAnts: Not Sadists, Students →
reslifelamentations: I wish residents understood that by not documenting them and warning them, we’re doing them a favor, and that if our superiors had their way, everyone in our residence hall would be in the system without discretion. When we say “we hate to be the bad guys” we really do. The problem is that…

Ideas to Make Life Easier 1. Hull strawberries easily using a straw. 2. Rubbing a walnut over scratches in your furniture will disguise dings and scrapes.  3. Remove crayon masterpieces from your TV or computer screen with WD40. 4. Stop cut apples browning in your child’s lunch box by securing with a rubber band. 5. Overhaul your linen cupboard, store bed linen sets inside one of their...

On Holiday Bells, Bows, and...Belly Blues?
My stomach My stomach My thighs.  These are the thoughts that pace around my head.  It’s truly a kooky, messed up system of thoughts. I know it’s from lack of gym during Graduate Finals. My family (some not seeing me for months and thought I was too thin) tell me I look “great, honestly great” with sincerity-even though I feel somewhat Gelatinous and gorged.  I’m not used to this.  There’s hopes...
