the worst part of college life is
the showers in a community bathroom, at least here it is. First off, showering in flip flops is not something I will ever get used to. Second, the bathroom is about 50 degrees. As soon as I pull back the curtain from my box where I shower, I’m freezing, like goosebumps freezing. Third, the water never gets as hot as I want it. Today it got hotish, like a good warm shower, which was good....

winter photo shoots
are rough! It’s cold in Boston, and I don’t have gloves. I started a street documentary project on Boston’s Chinatown today for class and only lasted an hour there before my hands froze. Yesterday, we walked at least 3 miles in cold on a street documentary photo shoot of Newbury Street and running errands. Thursday, we took the T for an hour to a forest and cemetery in an area...

I hate how
I’m the only one of my friends that does not smoke weed. I’m tired of going on walks in the cold so I’m left back at the dorm. But, I refuse to give into the pressure of being the only one not smoking. I will stay strong. And be the drunkest bitch in the room instead.

music solves
almost everything. Super lonely tonight in Cambridge, even though my roommate is sleeping in our room tonight. I wish I had cuddle buddy here, especially since we are about to get a huge snowstorm in the next two days. But of course, the day we’d have off is the day I don’t have any classes and would screw up my plans to get stuff done that day…

Your beliefs.
I believe that everything happens for a reason. I believe that “rescue is possible” (TWLOHA). I believe that one day I’ll find love. I believe that if things aren’t good yet then it isn’t the end. I believe in soul mates. I believe in once upon a time and happily ever after. I believe that sober dance parties in my car in a bowling ally parking lot are...

it's crazy how
a month long separation from people I’ve known for four months has changed nothing but a four month separation from people I’ve known for at least a year has changed everything.

day seventeen.
the high point and low point of your year (2010)
For me, a lot of 2010 was a low point. I hit rock bottom as 2009 was ending and that is where I started 2010. I had higher points of lowness but never really had a high point for a long time in 2010. I hit rock bottom again the summer of 2010. This time I dealt with rock bottom in more socially acceptable ways than I how I had previously dealt with...

Your views on mainstream music.
Whater. Listen to what you want. If you want to listen to the stuff on the radio as your main form of music entertainment, go ahead. I love listening to it with my friends and dancing around or when we are going out to the club. But as for my main entertainment of music, I’m not that into mainstream music. I don’t know; it’s just not my jam...

I’M HOME! THIS IS HOW I FEEL ABOUT TONIGHT, BEING WITH ALL MY FRIENDS AGAIN. PERFECT NIGHT. IT FEELS LIKE WE HAVEN’T BEEN GONE AT ALL.
Boston bound.
I had an afternoon flight back to Boston, which is a new time to fly for me. I usually fly first or last flight out. Normally, I’m asleep for most of the flight or it’s pitch black outside. But, today was different.
Today, I flew in a cloudless sky. About an hour into the flight the pilot came over the speakers and told us we were flying over Lake Eerie. I looked out the window. I...

day fourteen.
Earliest memory.
I think my earliest memory is when I meet Carrah. It was the second day of kindergarden on bus 5. We were in the afternoon class so I’m pretty sure we got on the bus before the rest of the school (so the big kids wouldn’t scare us). I remember us sitting together and becoming friends in the most innocent way possible: one of us asking the other if we wanted to be...

Some place you’d like to move or visit someday.
I’d love to visit a lot of different places, basically the entire world. I want to visit Italy, France, Belgium, Germany, the rest of Europe, Italy, Spain, Greece, England, China, Japan, Brazil, Australia, a bunch of different African countries, Morocco, etc. There are a lot of places I want to see so bad. I’m pretty sure...

Ke$ha 4 Lyfe
Last night, I bonded with the new interns at the photography studio I used/still do intern/work for over our love for Ke$ha. Hilarious boys that I fully approve of and kinda sorta love because of the music they listen too. :)
Tonight, Ke$ha is distracting me from the obscene amount of money I’m going to need to go to school next year because the damn government doesn’t recognize that...

Describe your first love and first kiss.
I’ve never been in love so I can’t describe my first love. Unless you count figure skating, basketball, and snowboarding, I’ve never been in love. I do love my family and some of my friends though.
My first kiss, oh jeez. Uh, I can’t remember my first kiss. And my most recent kisses were at a frat party so those don’t count...

concerts and nights and Final Riots!
For some reason I can’t shake the feeling of loneliness tonight. Maybe it’s knowing that everyone I care about here is gone. Maybe it’s knowing that I’m so close to going back yet I still have another 6 days until I leave. Maybe it’s knowing that everything will be different again when I come back in May. Maybe it’s knowing that the next time I will be in my...
