This title refers to my experiences of the past few months, and not the fantastic book by Barbie-K.

As always, the summer has flown by way too fast and I've got school staring me in the face yet again. Luckily, it turns out I'm too broke to take more than one class. Graduation gets further and further away all the time, but at least I won't be all stressed out and putting my personal life on hold for the next few months.

It has been one of my best summers for sure, because I've been doing a pretty good job of "sucking the marrow out of life," which, in my current mood and situation translates to "partying" and "having fun." hehe. i don't feel remotely guilty about not "accomplishing" more this summer because i've made several drastic lifestyle improvements that i'm hoping to maintain throughout the winter. i've been hanging out with fantastic people, reading kickass books and watching kickass movies, getting plenty of exercise and sunshine and fresh air, sleeping 10 hours per night when i can, and eating healthy good quality food. so often it's the simple things that make all the difference.

so yeah, that's that. maybe i'll have more to say when i finally get a new computer in a few weeks, but it looks like i've kind of gone off blogging for the time being. shit happens.
