Here's to a lost cause...

To the person who took my ipod in dwinelle on Tuesday (Feb 28th): Please Return it.

Now that I don't have music to listen to while studying, I think I've developed ADD.

It's been a 'meh' week. Japanese has exausted me lately as I try and deal with people who don't belong in our class; kids who waste my time.

And I need to pick an object of criticism to focus on for my seminar thesis. I'm frantically watching movies to try and find something. Know any good animes/movies that you would characterize as a 'comedy of remarriage'? (besides of course, the 1940's movies that gave rise to the genre).

It's late...

    Mom just told me about your ipod... how horrible. I barely listen to mine, but if I didn't have it while working out...I don't think I'd ever want to step foot in the gym. I'd just keel over and die right there on the elliptical machine. You should get your name engraved in the next one, and get a lanyard so you can put it around your neck.

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...

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 o...
