Something clever.

I’m feeling lazy, this means that you’re not getting anything close to a cohesive entry.
My semester is winding down to a close, and I’m really very happy about that. I think. At least, it’ll be good to think I have free time to pursue the books I want to read and do the creative things [...]

<3 Pimsleur.

I am, er, sampling Pimsleur’s Speak and Learn Essential Russian 1 at the moment just for kicks, and also because I’m thinking about taking Russian in college and after taking French, I’ve realized it’s not a bad idea to test drive a language to make sure I’m at least interested in it before putting in [...]

All good things must come to an end.

Here’s to all the pretty words we will never speak!
This was fun for the time it lasted, but sometimes you’ve gotta move on…you know? Don’t take us off your blogrolls just yet, since there’s still some cleaning up to do.
But…these long distance relationships, man. They’re killer. I can’t believe it lasted as long as it [...]
