There needs to be a code word or something that means “my brain is fighting me every step of the way today and I feel like I’m going to vibrate out of my skin, so I need you to forgive everything and go slowly and speak softly and lower your expectations.” And then we could all just be like, “I know I said we could go to a movie tonight but… tangerines.” And the other person would...

Girl vs. Whale: Foundations I →
girlvswhale:

OBLIGATORY FINALS WEEK BLURB, PT. 2.
My laptop crashed on Wednesday and would not turn back on. I had a paper and a presentation due that afternoon.
Spent the day holed up in the media lab typing up my paper. Luckily, I was able to get a one-day extension on my assignments.
And here I am, still trying to finish my presentation before I take off for the airport in six hours.
I am too reliant upon technology. Things need to change.

OBLIGATORY FINALS WEEK BLURB.
Looks like my motivation jumped out the window. As usual.
I really need to get this whole notion of “I work so much better under pressure” out of my system. This is BS.
One paper for German Lit. One presentation about press freedom in Latin America.
I can do this. I will be done with this quarter by 4 p.m. tomorrow.

I sat in Trabant for seven hours today writing my Organizational Communication paper. For the class that often felt like a complete waste of time.
Anyway, my paper was submitted. It wasn’t absolutely brilliant, but hey. The effort was put in to make something that was at least mildly intelligent.
I am going to go eat Chunky Monkey in bed and pass the fuck out.

Seat secured in the only comfy dining room chair? Check.

Sufficiently burrito-ed in a fuzzy blanket? Check

Snacking my nerves away for this interview. Hopefully my interviewer likes hummus breath.

february is “apply for internships” season and march is “leave your gmail inbox open in another tab 24/7 and have a conniption every time you get a new message because what if it’s good news” season
This sounds painfully familiar.

So I just applied to be a summer intern at The Seattle Times.
Here come the nerves and (misplaced) paranoid feelings that everything I sent is rife with typos.
Fingers crossed.

APPLICATIONS
One might think that with all the blogging and social media-ing I do, I might be at least somewhat good at talking about myself.
Ha.

Just danced my brains out during Starfucker’s performance at The Neptune. My ears still haven’t popped and I am sore as hell, but I am too blissed out to really care.
