College life has put a dent in the amount of time that I have for doing recreational art. I'm pretty much done with sitting down and drawing just for the hell of it, mostly because I have so much other crap to wade through - namely problem sets and lab reports and whatever reading I decide to get around to doing.
Looking back, it is amazing how much time you have during High School to just sit back and vegetate. Whereas here at Reed, taking a break pretty much means switching from one problem set to another so that your mind doesn't fry from too much Physics or Organic Chemistry in one sitting. I should be doing that now. In fact, after this posting, I will return to it.
I couldn't for the life of me list all the things that have happened this last year. Oddly enough, even living in a relatively small dorm for a year, my dreams still wander back to certain friends in Alaska. How's that for weird? Perhaps the level of personal attachment to a person is directly proportional to how much you interact with them on a 1:1 basis. Then again, I'm sure that there are counterexamples. It is three in the morning, and I'm blabbering.
I've lived in Portland for slightly more than a year now. A year and three weeks, to be more precise. Kinda lonely here, with everyone busy. College is really sapping my energy and my bank account... I somehow worked all summer and the earnings disappeared in a day. I believe I have enough to pay tuition this year, but there are still two years to go... Shoot.
Our dorm made liquid nitrogen ice cream tonight as an open-to-campus event. Over 120 people showed up - three times more than the last ice cream event we held. We made do however, and managed to satisfy everyone's appetites, despite draining all 10 liters of liquid nitrogen that we had. Liquid nitrogen ice cream is really good stuff, quick and easy. We also added frozen fruit that had been chopped up in a blender so that the ice cream turned into frozen sweet creamy fruity goodness. I'm afraid to say that we may need more liquid nitrogen next time, since attendance seems to increase each time we do this. Sadly, I believe we'll soon run out of dewars to store the stuff.
I had planned a trip to a lake tomorrow, but it appears that everyone is too busy to come along. Reminds me of two years ago when roughly the same thing happened. Shame, maybe this day is cursed with the "too busy to do stuff" curse. I figure one of these years, I'll forget to post a journal entry, or be away from the computer and unable to - but that's not happening this year.
I'm growing more gray hairs. I wonder how long it will take before all of it goes gray...









I hope you've still got a few non-gray hairs left

Now you come here and accuse me of ruining DeviantArt because I objected to your thievery. Shameful. Absolutely shameful.
