Some exciting things to look forward to this week. First of all, tomorrow is supposed to be a slow day at Westword, where I intern. I’m excited because I’ve been going full-steam for the past three weeks – it’s been like a third job (I already have two). A day... Continue reading

Oh, 8am’s. How I loathe thee. Remember when I told you about my class schedule this quarter? Remember when I said that I had 8am’s every day? Well, it’s now week four and this whole 8am thing is slowly witling away at my soul. You think I’m kidding, but my... Continue reading

Sometimes all you can do is talk about the weather. Today is one of those days. I woke up this morning – no, not feeling like P. Diddy actually – to the sunshine and warmth and excitement. In the time it took me to take a shower and get dressed,... Continue reading

Return of the spring

Greetings, from this side of spring break! It’s been quite a while since my last post, folks, and I truly apologize. I will tell you this though: I’ve been busy. So I’ll try and catch you up. Here we gooooooooo… First of all, classes are great. I’m actually not taking... Continue reading

Smell that? Yes. That. That’s the smell of success. Sweet, A+ success. Time for a little art class update. You all remember the 3D art class I’m taking right now. It’s not easy. It’s challenging and painful and difficult. Ok, so I may be whining a little bit about this... Continue reading

An editor's authority

The definition of ironic is blogging about the awesomeness of getting a snow day last week then not getting another one this week – though we clearly deserved one. Strange. What do I do on my Not Snow Day? Well, in keeping with tradition, Not Much. Caught up on homework.... Continue reading

A house to make a home

The quarter is already halfway over. I can’t believe it! Friday will mark the end of week 5. ALREADY. Where does the time go? It certainly doesn’t stick around, that’s for sure. Since it is mid-sophomore year, my friends and I have begun thinking about what we are going to... Continue reading

Happy snow day!

We had a snow day today. We had a snow day today. Did you read that as if I were chanting it aloud with you? Yes? Well, good. Because I was. Today was our first snow day of the school year. DU closed on Monday night. All the 4 p.m.... Continue reading

I have so much laundry to do. Shoot. I don’t have enough time to laundry! My clothes are going to smell! I won’t have any clean shirts or pairs of jeans! Can I just send everything home to my mom so she can clean everything for me? One of the... Continue reading

Too cool for pool

Today I fell into the pool. Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. Today was no exception. It was just another usual day of lifeguarding. Same shift as normal – kinda slow, not a lot of swimmers. There were the same faces and the same hellos and even the... Continue reading

More snow! More snow! More snow! I really don’t want to jinx anything here, but the amount of snow we’re being hit with today could cause a snow day. KNOCK ON WOOD. Last year we had two snow days by the first week of November. This year, we had our... Continue reading

Reunited and it feels so good

I love seeing all my fellow students back on the DU campus. There’s something to be said for seeing all their smiling faces as they walk excitedly to their favorite class or hurriedly to their least favorite class, for which they’re going to be late. There’s a restored sense of... Continue reading

Confession: I love my broadcast journalism class. I’ve only had the class once so far, but it was a very, very engaging two hours. The professor, a retired investigative broadcast news journalist, was funny and, more importantly, fun. Like any other journalism class, there’s only nine of us in a... Continue reading

Third day of a new term

Third day in to the quarter…. …and the rush of doing homework, having meetings, attending lectures and working is back. With a bang. I’m a little behind on my posts (apologies), but then again I’m a little behind on everything. Such is the beauty of still being on winter break... Continue reading

2010 becomes 2011

New Year’s eve? 2011? Holy moly me-oh-my. Where does the time go? A couple of weeks ago I posted my bucket list for DU, which is moderately similar to a new year’s resolution list. So instead of repeating myself, I’ll do a year in review – because some things you... Continue reading

Day after Christmas

Day after Christmas and all through the house, both parents are stirring, and so is a mouse… I’ve been home for the past five days. It’s been glorious. The holidays truly are a time for being with family and friends and more family. No, my favorite thing about Christmas is... Continue reading

Colorado weather is being ridiculous lately. It is so hot outside for the middle of December, it’s ridiculous. R-I-D-I-C-U-…you get the idea. I’ve been dreaming of a white Christmas, but I’m beginning to doubt if that will happen. Only twice do I remember there being snow on Christmas. This year,... Continue reading

A Very Musical Evening

Last night was a fun one indeed. Looking for a Christmas present for my friend Laurel (the one who has appeared in other posts), I scoured most of downtown Denver. First, to Best Buy. I was planning to buy her the Glee Christmas album (check out a track HERE) Best... Continue reading

Reverb and Jenga

Between all The O.C. marathons, I also attended two very important social events last week. They both deserve a mention. I’m always going off about how great a job DU does in networking you as a student. Well here’s the perfect example. Thursday night I attended a party at the... Continue reading

Welcome to The O.C.

This week has been a very exciting one. I feel like I say that every time – but, hey, carpe diem…and diem… and diem…right? I’ve spent the past seven days doing a lot of driving. To Boulder. From Boulder. To the grocery store. From the grocery store. Oh, and I... Continue reading

For my birthday (back in September) I received a book from my parents. It was called “The Element” by Ken Robinson. I knew it was my more from my mom than my dad because it was an inspirational, self-help kind of book – just up her alley. Anyways, when the... Continue reading

What a week it has been! A true whirlwind! On Monday I began my internship at the record label. I love it – but no surprise there. Although it’s holiday break, it feels like life has kicked up to an even faster speed. Leave for the internship, get there by... Continue reading

Something exciting is happening right as I type this. Snow is falling. Typically in Colorado we would have had snow by now. Not this year. In fact, it has seemed like fall up until these past two weeks, yet winter has yet to deliver. That seems to have changed. The... Continue reading

If you celebrate Thanksgiving, I hope you enjoyed the time with family and friends and food! I know I did! I went home for Thanksgiving. My parents hosted the dinner this year at their house, so my mom and I did much preparation for the big day. Both sides of... Continue reading

Silence/Independence

Oh, the sweet sound of silence. Now that the quarter is over, the campus buzz has quieted to a murmur. There’s hardly anyone around – no students, no faculty, no parents. It’s so empty. Today this realization hit me hard, but in a good way. Last year I went home... Continue reading
