questions I wish people around here would ask me instead of "DIDJA hear from KY yet?" because I can at least answer 'yes' to them:


1. Did you notice that the school food court stopped serving that awful "Chinese" food at their little ethnic food booth?

2. Did you notice that they replaced it with "Homestyle Week" and they had meatloaf, mashed potatoes, gravy, beans with bacon?
3. Did you and Darren actually try it?

4. Is BER almost done?
5. Will you send it out to print next week right before you leave for Atlanta?
6. Aren't you excited that it will be released on campus in like March, thereby setting a new world record?
7. Is the cover going to kick ass?

8. Is your Comp class going better than the last couple of weeks?
9. Do you still miss your last class like crazy?
10. Does it help when your favorite former student drops by with a mix CD?
11. Have you been listening to the above every day since you received it?

12. Is your head full of Target brand DayQuil?
13. Did you have a wonderful Bockfest/drinking cheap beer in the garage weekend despite your giant head cold?

14. Did you just purchase an Alton Brown cookbook and get excited by the chapters on searing and braising?
15. Be honest: did you buy the book at Barnes and Noble in town instead of trying to find it used online just because the former netted you the cool little 'cuts of meat' magnets included?

16. Are you excited to push out BER, pass your Comps, board a plane, and tour the world's largest aquarium with your little brother?


17. Doesn't it just drive you batshit-crazy when your officemates insist that the harsh overhead fluorescent lights be kept on, even though the nice natural light streaming in from the two windows is much easier to work in, and then after they flip on the lights they take off for forty-odd minutes but don't mention that they'll be back anytime soon because god knows if they did then you could actually turn off the lights and work in peace?
18. Doesn't it make you feel good when random colleagues drop in and ask if they can read your thesis before you graduate?
19. Are you aware the whole tone of this post sort of makes you sound like an asshole?

  2. So...didja hear from KY yet?






    Actually, I keep asking myself if I've heard from any of the jobs I'd applied to and keep answering no, I haven't.

    (that aquarium looks amazing)

  3. I don't have any questions... I'm just happy you posted the aquarium picture. That is fantastically awesome. I could sit and stare at the fish all day. Seriously, I could. I would just sit down with my lunch-tub of peanut butter and stare.

  4. Did you find another old Sweet Valley High book, read it and realize that it has more literary value than most of the shit this program accepts for theses?
