The Neverending Story is on TV right now. I haven’t seen it in years, and it is such a great movie. It’s so nostalgiac.

Some other happy things that happened in my life recently:
Last night, the waitresses at What’s Your Beef told me, for the second time, that I’m really sweet and kind, and that I take the blame for way too much stuff. I don’t mind taking the blame though, because it rarely stresses me out, and [...]

Well, I just get home to check my grades, and the entire IB Organization web site is down. IB should get Akamaized.

Geez! I got all frantic about my IB scores, and finally shuffled through the foot of papers on my desk to find my “secret access code thing”. I found it, hysterically type in my ID number and whatnot, click the ’submit’ button about 50 times, only to realize that the scores won’t be [...]

I can’t stand being patronized at work (at What’s Your Beef, not Broome County Council of Churches). All I can think about is what an awesome intership I’m going to get next summer.

As Americans celebrated their freedoms yesterday, it is ironic that this article popped up at the BBC website.Apparently the French are investigating the US satellite surveillance system known as ECHELON.
