Conceals the night with disregard
What I’ve been up to today…
Watched Invictus with A today! Such a great movie.
Received an email from my philosophy professor. Looks like I forgot to write a paper that was due a week ago (whoops!). Good thing he thought he lost my paper - I’ve just written and sent it! Yes!
Now on to outlining a paper for an in-class final tomorrow. My last one! Also, I cannot believe that...
Bonding
Cheap wine + cheese fries + Boyfriend as a server (who just so happened to be working tonight!) Loved tonight. I really needed this.

And it goes on
Loved how easy peasy my sociology final was, although I wish it hadn’t been an 8 am! One more final to go!
Plans for the week include:
Finishing up finals with an in-class essay for English on Wednesday
Taking Christmas portraits with a friend and some pups, then later sending them out on Christmas cards!
Getting a much needed hair cut! Still unsure of exactly what I want though…

F*mazin' night
last night! Time went by so slow, and the party venue was like a trip down the rabbit hole. Everyone was in agreement that it seemed like we were living in a dream, where we were in wonderland - following this wooden pathway to see horses and fishies in crazy huge ponds, swinging on swings, and lounging in large open candlelit tents with pillows thrown everywhere - and all my favorite people from...

Imagine all the people, living life in peace
Today is International Human Rights Day:
“On December 10th, 1948, the United Nations General Assembly adopted and proclaimed the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. 61 years later, we remember that commitment.” (via caraobrien)
Protect the Human. Know Your Rights. Defend the Rights of Others.
I’m glad I keep everything! The above is from the AIUSA 2007 Southern Regional...

It's starting to feel a bit like Christmas
The tree is up, the stockings are hung, and I have a mad craving for eggnog. I don’t even like it that much, but I guess I’m just in that kind of mood.
After a day of reading philosophical babble, the last thing I want is a night full of it. But, alas, that’s what’s going down tonight. Lovely.
Tonight’s plans include:
Studying a bit of Sociology (includes typing up...

Currently,
Reading and annotating Thomas Nagel’s The View From Nowhere in preparation for a 10 page paper due Friday. I wish I was done with exams already, but besides this paper, my exams are all scheduled for next week.
Anyway, this little one is currently napping beside me:
Ah, she’s so cute once she’s asleep and not ready to pounce and attack my fingers as I type! Lovely.
I finally...

Fantastic
So I finally watched Fantastic Mr. Fox this afternoon with boyfriend and I absolutely loved it! I guess that was my last bit of freedom, as I now need to ‘buckle down and get my shhh together’.
Plans for tomorrow include:
Morning run
Wash car
Begin (and hopefully finish) 10 page paper for philosophy
Study for Sociology exam
Reread Gulliver’s Travels and create a sentence...

Yesterday
Japanese skit was purrrrfect! 80s theme was thrown out, and it was deemed ‘cute’ by sensei!
Watched The Blind Side with boyfriend and it was absolutely wonderful! Definitely a must see for those of you who haven’t already!
Went on a late night scooter ride with boyfriend. It may not seem like it, but it was a lot of fun zipping around on that thing. He can be so cute...
Tips to help improve the quality of your life
sergeantkero:
Take a 10-30 minute walk every day. And while you walk, smile. It is the ultimate anti-depressant.
Sit in silence for at least 10 minutes each day.
Buy a DVR and tape your late night shows and get more sleep.
When you wake up in the morning complete the following statement, ‘My purpose is to __________ today.’
Live with the 3 E’s — Energy, Enthusiasm, and Empathy.
