Why aren’t fruit snacks in the candy aisle?

WASHINGTON, DC Sorry for not updating in the past few days, but I really didn’t have too much new to report on. I rented that room here for the summer. It’s not bad. Like I said before, not great by any means, but it’s cheap and it should work, just as long as I don’t [...]

Can a late-night bus be called a “red-eye?”

Marlton, NJ So I was able to go see the room last night.  It’s located 11 blocks behind Union Station in NE DC.  For the price it’s not bad.  It’s a group house with 6 other college students and recent grads.  It’s not in the best of neighborhoods, but there are plenty worse.  I’m leaning [...]

Guess what I did yesterday…

WASHINGTON, DC I went to the Library of Congress and got a library card! I just thought that was cool. I wasn’t in too much of a hurry to get back home from VOA, so I took the scenic route to the Union Station Metro and passed the Library of Congress on the way. So I [...]

Talk about a wild goose chase…

WASHINGTON, DC Well, today was substantially more exciting than the first two, which is definately a good thing. I sorted another shelf of tapes this morning, like yesterday, but after I got done with that I actually got to help out with a few things, and I think I may have doubled the amount of [...]

Salom.

WASHINGTON, DC So here I am. I’m posting this from the office of “Next Chapter,” a show produced by the Voice of America’s Persian/Farsi Service broadcast to Iran. It’s a pretty neat show. Of course, it’s all in Farsi, so I don’t understand a word (well, I picked up that “Salom”=”hello,” but that’s it), but [...]

I have two goals in mind for this week…

1) Try to be like Monica Lewinsky. 2) Try not to be like Chandra Levy. Yes, that’s right, in just a few short hours I’m stepping onto a Greyhound bus to begin my summer adventure, um, I mean, internship, at Voice of America in Washington, DC.  If I’m able to have an affair with the president [...]

Midnight actually seems late when everyone else in the house is asleep and no one is online to chat.

Again, I’m sorry for not updating in the past few days (actually, the last update was on Thursday, even though it was dated Tuesday), but I’ve been back and forth between my dad’s in Marlton and my mom’s in Blackwood ever since I’ve been back.  Also, I don’t have a fast internet connection here and [...]

Wow.

Sorry for not updating in a few days.  I actually didn’t update on purpose, since I wanted the calculator saga to have as much time at the top of the page as possible.  If you haven’t read it yet, make sure you read it.  It’s truly remarkable.  It’s further down this page under.  And no, [...]

Yatta!

And that’s the end of year two!  Current Mood: Yatta! Current Music:  Yatta! by Happa-tai

Where to start…? Complete and total insanity…

Ok, I’m sorry about the lack of updates recently, but it’s finals time and I’ve been really busy with them.   Here’s the quick update, then I’ll describe things in detail:  1) My calculator is in Mexico. 2) I went to Ottawa this past weekend. 3) I’m 9 hours away from being finshed with my second year at [...]
