  The GRE taught me that my vocabulary is in shambles. As a member of the female species, I should be able to communicate and have abetter grasp of language than most of the male species. This just isn't true for me. I have a few things I beleive attribute to this. One is that a good percentage of my friends are male, and therefore my verbosity has declined to their level. Second, as a B.S.
in genetics, there was no emphasis put on language classes what so ever. The last English/ Literature class I took was in high school. Third, with my continous study of other languages, I think the more academic words of my vocabulary have been pushed aside to make room for the basic vocabulary and alphabets of these other languages. My time in Japan did not help the situation. So in an effort to regain control of my mother tongue, I have taken to reading the NY Times in the morning. Of course, I also frequent my free online Spanish and Japanese language sites as well.
I just read this article talking about that old TV show "My So-Called Life" and comparing it to current teenage drama shows like "O.C. ", "Dawson's Creek", and "One Tree Hill. " The article sound like its praising these new shows because it protrays teens as how they see themselves. I say "Okay, teens see themselves as loose, perfect, and completely in control of everything. They also see their parents as evil witches and warlocks. " Riiiight, thats how I saw myself in high school.
Please. During my mid-teen years, I love that show "My So Called Life", I could relate to it. The characters were shy, and akward at times, confident at others, they didn't always know what to do, they struggled. They had fights with their 'rents, but they also had times of friendship with them. Teens can relate to that. It was real, these other shows, they are ridiculous.
I can't stand them. BAH! Moving on. urlLink NOOOO!!! Why! Keep fighting the good fight!
Shoot, I would use Linux if I wasn't so lazy to change and learn. *sob* Once again, Man, if you read this, I'm sorry. I doubt he does, he's never said anything so I think I'm safe. ^_^ That awesomely cut woman was at the gym again. Inspiration. I want to get back to my last September shape.
I was so much easier then, I was busy all day, but it wasn't like commuting for three hours busy. Being actually busy is a good diet. Then having your own apartment is a good diet, cause I don't buy the snacks my mom does. College judo teams are good diets, cause everyone supports each other for making weight. (Of course, then they make fun of you for looking too skinny.....) FitDay.com, I'm going to try to use this to keep track of things. Maybe that will help.
Its almost 9:30am here, where is everyone?? I know the boss isn't in today, but he never is. Sheesh. Okay, bathroom break. Late, kids.
