I found an awesome writing website a little while ago called drwicked.com. Basically you enter how long you want to write for, and if you stop writing the screen turns red and it makes loud noises until you start writing again. It’s amazing to write without thinking, that’s what this websites forces you do to. […]

Tackling a Thesis Paper
You would think that with the English Honors Exam finally over, I would have more time to relax, but nope- The thesis paper for the honors seminar is due in a little over two weeks so it’s time to drag out my books and articles and begin the painful revision/ expansion process. Unfortunately, I haven’t […]
natural disasters O_O
On Friday, Queens College had its second snow day in a span of just two weeks. This definitely has to be a record for my life as a student. ^^ I really appreciated the extra day off because I was able to dedicate more time to resting and fighting off this terrible cold I (still) […]
Haitian Earthquake Survivor Panel
I had the distinct pleasure of attending a panel discussion featuring survivors of the devastating earthquake in Haiti. Interestingly enough, if i wasn’t forced to go by the director of my fellowship (the Mellon Mays undergraduate fellowship), Professor Pierre Louise, i would have never gone.
of course he was speaking, so there was no faking my […]
Snow to Ruin My Spring 2010
Despite the fact that I posted an article on the first day of Spring 2010 (Spring 2010 Is Here) about how I plan to be on top of things, start the semester with the intention of not falling behind, and not to procrastinate; apparently the snow is planning to ruin my spring 2010. Really, what’s up […]
time, a maniac scattering dust
So..!
I am at work (I have been working as a dental assistant in Bayside for 5 years for a dentist whose office is for the practice of pedontics, limited to children) awaiting our first patient for the day. I can’t help but feel as if I am wasting time. This, of course, is my greatest fear. Losing time, the most valuable […]

Field 14 Is Full!
Today unlike other days I arrived at Queens College from the gate at Melbourne Avenue & 150th Street around 4 pm. I have morning classes, so I usually get to the campus early in the morning. I was one of the lucky ones to win the parking lottery in July and have a decal for field 14. Anyone who drives to Queens […]
Party!
On occasion I work for a party place that does parties in people homes and it’s always a whole lot of fun. While it does get exhausting sometimes, the kids totally make up for it. I always forget that for me, the party that I’m working is just a job. I’m going though the motions of […]
Being a Resident Assistant in the Summit Part 3
Everyone was very excited for the first Resident Halls ever built in QC. There were over 100 volunteers on opening day of August 26th. They were all very happy to help all the new residents move in. We had volunteers lined up on each side of the Summit to help any of the residents with […]
