OkCupid’s “Personality Awards”

By Justin | Published: October 29, 2008

I’ve had a profile on OkCupid since March. Back when I was more invested in the site, I answered 954 of the questions that are used to judge users’ personalities. OkCupid analyzes the results as users answer more questions, and gives “Personality Awards” based on that analysis. These are little icons that supposedly indicate which [...]

Contacting me through the end of July

By Justin | Published: June 19, 2008

The time is nearing… my month in New Orleans! This drastic change in circumstances necessitates an equally drastic change in getting in touch with me. I don’t plan on using a computer throughout my time in New Orleans, so you should expect no updates to this blog. Similarly, you’ll receive no replies to things you [...]

Summer, in smaller chunks than desired

By Justin | Published: 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 [...]

Big things are afoot: a short summer update

By Justin | Published: June 1, 2008

I know I have not written here in a while, but sadly, it’s 3:48 AM and this won’t be a very informative entry. I’m only writing it since I can’t stop thinking enough to be able to fall asleep. Which is not good. Because I have to wake up in 4.5 hours for work… I’m [...]

A (very) abridged look into some recent troubles

By Justin | Published: April 7, 2008

I’ve got quite a bit on my mind. The problem is not that I haven’t had time to write it all down, but rather that, first, I haven’t had the ability to sit down and put my thoughts into words, and second, that I haven’t been managing my time in anything like an efficient manner.

My story is slated to run in today’s Argus

By Justin | Published: February 1, 2008

I even heard that it may run on the front page! With a picture! In color! Needless to say, I am quite excited. I’m in probably the best place I’ve been since when I first started going out with Erica, or I graduated from high school, or maybe even since the high-energy days of junior [...]

Positively bubbly, Pt. I

By Justin | Published: January 25, 2008

It is 4:31 PM and the sky is still a cool blue. It is still quite light outside. I am positively bubbly, and everything is going very, very well.

Another disjointed entry with no main point

By Justin | Published: January 14, 2008

Sometimes it’s best just to spill the contents of one’s mind, I think. And this post is an example of such spillage. I woke up to a beautiful snowstorm, the kind with the heavy, wet snow that sticks to everything and makes all the tree branches sag until they touch the ground. The flakes were [...]

Memory lane brings me: my WesPersonal

By Justin | Published: January 13, 2008

Remember WesPersonals? I found my old personal ad (which I deleted long ago) saved on my computer today, and decided to re-post it, though not quite with the same intent. All in all, not too much has changed since I posted that over a year ago, in November 2006: the line about not drinking would [...]
