A (school-)year in review

Didn’t write here enough. Wrote a lot in other places, but I’m starting to feel like it barely means anything unless it’s out in the open. (Still not bringing it all out in the open yet.) sandy footprint

Made business cards. They were a huge hit. Ask me for one.

Took lots of pictures.

Got pretty excited about Howard Dean for a few months. Currently back to disappointment and/or disillusionment.

Found Brian, exactly as described. He Googled himself, found my page, and e-mailed me. Better yet, he’s still every bit as cool as I remembered from three years ago.

Letters from Kristen (7). Fabulous.

First semester, didn’t drink at all. Second semester, did some experimenting. No regrets.

A moment over spring break, Savannah, Georgia: Sunday night when we arrived there was a huge mildewy stain on the carpet, stinking up the kitchen. The carpet cleaner came at around noon on Monday and kicked us out of the house, so we all filed out the sliding door in back and walked down to the beach. Everyone’s shirts and sandals were in a big pile at the end of the grass. Hours after the carpet guy was finished, we were still out there tossing a couple of frisbees, sunburn piling up on the back of our calves.

My roommate and I got about ten times closer after his girlfriend (long distance, NYU) broke up with him. Terrible but true. The last 3 weeks in particular, we were awesome.

My photos used on the cover of The Observer three times and they spelled my name wrong every time.

Most of the good things that have happened have been related in some way to Ultimate. It’s made me so much more sociable. Ballroom and The Observer were fun, but not as communal.

The whole concept of “school pride” has always been pretty foreign to me. I wasn’t really proud of (or satisfied with) where I was. But I think I might be getting it now.
