Because Facebook statuses are so fleeting. More of a recap for my goldfish memory than anything. It has been a wonderful year! [There are 68 photos and they are in chronological order.] Continue reading
Category Archives: This is me.
I’m not proud, but I’m laughing.
I ride my bike everywhere. At least 2 miles a day from home to work to class etc. Today was no different. One of the later legs of my biking journey was from the campus center back home after a student government meeting. In the dark. Due to a lack of care (and too much … Continue reading
This is what I live with. On the daily.
The first thing I thought of when putting together this post was Bill Cosby’s show, Kids Say the Darndest Things. My life is basically an exact replica of that show if you replace “Kids” with “roommates”. This selection of quotes is very imbalanced due to a heavy dose of Jena. Jena just really knows how … Continue reading
Ten Tips for a More Successful and Less Annoying Life
It’s that lovely time of year again…when I’m due for a nice little cleansing rant. Enjoy.

25 Random “I Miss When” Statements
I really do love college. But sometimes I just like to reminisce about my elementary years. And I have a relatively horrible memory…which makes this list even more special. But just because I remembered it does not necessarily mean that it was really significant, nor does me not including something mean I didn’t absolutely love … Continue reading
19 Reasons Why Our Parents Are Wonderful
1.) They have raised us to be independent and self-sufficient. (But at the same time, they’re always there if we need them.) 2.) They’re awesome with our friends…to the extent that they’ve gained the title of Mama Amy & Papa Steve. 3.) They taught us that common sense isn’t all that common…but regardless, we better … Continue reading
I don’t want to leave this place.
The only reason I haven’t cried today is because I’ve been too busy. Not in an entirely sad way…but more of a bittersweet-I-don’t-want-to-leave-this-place-in-9-months way. But seriously, how do three years fly by so quickly? When the topic of being a senior comes up we all prefer not to discuss the issue. Because we really, actually, … Continue reading
Non-cliché…is that a word?
I really like quotes. In the most non-cliché way, I love how they can change your attitude and your perspective. I love how they can lead you to a revelation. I love how they can explain something that you’ve been trying to articulate in words, but have been unable to accurately capture thus far. And … Continue reading
Turn that movie off so I can watch the Packers. Thanks.
“I know you haven’t seen it Laura…but has anyone else?” This is how people have learned to address movies around me. Because I just really don’t like watching movies. And people have a hard time accepting that. I usually get the, “How have you not seen it?!” Or, “I am going to make you watch … Continue reading
29 interesting & inconsequential facts about me.
I don’t like ice cubes in pretty much anything besides water. Primarily because they dilute the drink. Immediately. Likewise, I think soda goes flat in like 17 minutes. So unless I drink a can of soda really fast, I won’t drink the bottom ¼ inch. Everyone yells at me for it. Thanks to my elementary … Continue reading
