Insanity...or genius?


This is me

This is my desk after 5 days of class

Conclusion: I'm going to die

But yeah... I may have to drop my class on Seeing Different(ly). The name really says it all too, i was really hoping to see more clearly (muddy). I think I'll just sit in on the class and watch all the awesome movies.

And if anyone's ever read Stanley Cavell...well, we need to talk. i.e. you need to help me.

Other than that, I've already started phase 1 of "falling off the face of the Earth." No extra-cirriculars (except japanese tutoring, which is really just more school). No friends (except my japanese homies), and no life (except for this blog...haha...*cries*). I have not really thought much of what phase 2 entails. I imagine it will have everything that phase 1 had, except for maybe more evil ducks. They will rule the world after the polar ice caps melt.

them, and maybe penguins. Naturally, a great war will come about, the ducks will be vanquished, and peace will be restored to the land. Hopefully I'll be out of law school by then.

Hmm.... I'm considering applying for the Honors Thesis program. It's a year long (2 semester) program for seniors. It's basically just another class in one's schedule, except you meet with your faculty advisor (of whom you choose), read a lot, and write a lot. Requirements: 3.7 major gpa, 3.5 career gpa and all pre-requisites finished. Surprisingly, I'm elligible. (I just have to *stay* elligible at this point). However, this would mean foregoing Japan. I won't know about my Japan app for a while, but the more I bury myself in the work of two highly esteemed professors, the more I'd like to attempt an honors thesis with either of them. (And, i'd be done with my major, giving me the time to devote to such a feat). If I don't get into the Japanese Program (40-50% chance) I will definitely apply for the Honors. Other than that, I'm trying to adjust to 6 hour class days, and the 3 hours of reading that follows class. Thank god I have monday and

Losing My Religion (and Health Insurance)

I must confess: the importance of health reform just got real. For some time now (since August of 2007) I've lived under the good graces of group health insurance. And not just any group health. We're talking: awesome group health (as in, cheap, sub-$300 deductible, $2,000 out-of-pocket, 80/20 co-pay insurance, huge networks, nearly all practices/procedures are covered, etc.). The corporate overlords informed us last week that the above mentioned health insurance is being dropped, with no replacement plan. They managed to work out a deal with the insurance overlords to allow us to keep the insurance in place until March of 2010 (they were actually considering just dropping it, immediately, as in: "sorry you no longer have health insurance, effective today; you should probably go get health insurance"). After reviewing with another health agent today about what choices we have available to us, as a small business, and to me as an individual--I AM COMPLETELY AND UTTE

Skipped a Few Seasons

::blows away the dust:: Well, somehow we're right back to Summer again.   The last nine months have been something special.  It's hard to believe that in that time I've been fortunate enough to snowshoe frozen lakes, dive the depths of Whiskey Town, scale the heights of Shasta, and otherwise hike much of the Northern hinterlands.   I'm in the middle of a dead zone as far as formal education goes.  I'm still another year out before I can start much of the course work I had planned (I realized much of it has ridiculous work experience requirements).  But, this has been a blessing.  I was able to take some time off in January and completed the Wilderness First Responder (WFR) course--a necessary certification brought on by a close call at Mt. Lassen with a flipped car and several injured people.   So Summer is starting again, and though I'm sure I'll find myself in some exciting positions, I really am looking forward to those relaxing days where the only th
