Summer, in smaller chunks than desired

By Justin | June 3, 2008

Summer proceeds, though in smaller chunks than desired. Working five days a week is a bummer, especially when those five days include Friday night, all day Saturday, and all day Sunday. Nevertheless, being trapped inside for five days of the week makes me appreciate all the more those few days off, and soon after waking [...]

Untitled

By Justin | January 12, 2008

Today I sat around and reflected on the lack of direction in my life. But really, I just ate a lot of food and watched the entire first season of Californication, which iTunes so nicely gave me in return for 24 of the dollars that I’m so desperately lacking lately. So, in a way, I [...]

A few thoughts on friendship

By Justin | December 15, 2007

Much as my socially-extroverted side has tended to fight it since sixth grade, I have always agreed with the maxim that it’s better to have a few good friends than a lot of not-quite-good friends. In those years, there were times when I would try to tell myself otherwise, when I would put myself out [...]

Numbers and other such things

By Justin | December 3, 2007

I don’t have anything even mildly intelligent to reflect upon tonight, which kind of bothers me. In place of any form of introspection or observation, I offer some numbers: Days until classes end: 8 Days until final exams: 15 Days until I go home, probably: 17 Avg. price of regular gasoline in CT: $3.25 Mileage [...]

Thanksgiving Break thus far

By Justin | November 22, 2007

Nothing of great interest has happened since I got home at around 10 o’clock on Tuesday night. Today I woke up late, went to the dentist, ran some errands, and lounged around the house doing nothing in particular. I was doing my laundry throughout the night last night—I had about three weeks’ worth of it, [...]

Last meal at MoCon, ever

By Justin | August 24, 2007

I forgot to mention that tonight’s meal at MoCon was the last one ever. Tomorrow they’re opening Usdan (the new university center) for meals. We stood on the two brass circles in the floor tonight and tested out the MoCon echo. It was really crazy, and I wonder if they designed it like that. Your [...]

I’m tired, so I’m going to make this quick

By Justin | August 8, 2007

ResLife cleared me to move in as early as August 21. Three more days of work; today was my last day working with David, and probably the last time I’ll see Andrew. I had positive interactions with my parents. It seems I talk more to them now that my brother is gone, and ironically, it [...]

Summertime sickness, and lots of Wikipedia

By Justin | July 16, 2007

It’s always weird being sick in the summer. In the winter, it seems more fitting to be feeling like crap, since the world outside is crap. You don’t feel like you should be outside, because it’s grey and freezing. But in the summer, it’s bright and sunny outside, and being inside all day feeling like [...]

Parents home, party OK’d

By Justin | July 14, 2007

My brother is now on his own down in Florida, since my parents arrived home at around 6 AM Friday morning. I was upfront about what went on while they were gone; how could I lie to my parents? They were cool with the party and didn’t even seem particularly concerned with the beverages that [...]
