Here, there and everywhere

now that's my kind of toilet paper.

Picking up my books today and stocking up at the Jester store with the money I have left from orientation. Life is good.

leave me some love. absence does make the heart grow fonder, right?

Needing a golden calculator

Finally here at college. It doesn't seem quite right yet, what with all the moving in and having things somewhat settled. Much to my surprise, the majority of the girls on my floor aren't rushing, which is quite nice. My roommate, Kara, is somewhat like me, minus the sarcasm and strange humor.

After arriving in Austin, my dad took ciompi to the ITS (information and technology services) Help Desk to get it fixed. It turns out that I had a virus and that nothing could be done, so they wiped the memory and basically erased everything I had. I got to keep my bookmarks and old emails, but hardly anything else. I got everything up and running a few hours ago, so for now, I'm set.
It's mostly boring, just sitting around waiting to do something to pass the time.

save me.

She's leaving home

We were talking
about the space between us all
and people who hide themselves
behind a wall of illusion
never glimpse the truth
then it's far too late
when they pass away
We were talking
about the love we all could share
When we find it
to try our best to hold it there
with our love, with our love
we could save the world
if they only knew
Try to realize it's all within yourself
no one else can make you change
And to see you're really only very small
and life flows on within you and without you
We were talking
about the love that's gone so cold
and the people who gain the world
and lose their soul
They don't know, they can't see
Are you one of them
When you've seen beyond yourself
then you may find
peace of mind is waiting there
And the time will come
when you see we're all one
and life flows on within you and without you.

After much deliberation, I've finally gotten most of my clothing/belongings gathered to pack tomorrow. Yes, I know, procrastination is a tough habit to break. Maybe I'll join a twelve step program or something like that. This may very well be my last post before my ciompi is dismantled and moved to austin, so enjoy it while it lasts. I'll try to get back to you all wednesday, but who knows?

And..in response to the blackmail new orleans pictures courtesy of rachel, I'm posting this for your personal viewing pleasure:



band trip 2001? indeed.
