So the blog’s been dead for a while, and believe me, I have an excellent excuse. I had two papers due on the Monday of finals week– a 10 pager and a 25 pager, along with two finals. I had...
On my run this morning, I ran my shoes apart. I probably should have been paying attention to the fact that for the past few days I could see my socks through holes in my shoes, but I had much more p...
It’s been two weeks since I last posted, and a lot has happened since then. Last Thursday, I ran my first 10k (25 laps around the track) at Mt. SAC, which was a cool experience both in that it ...
At the end of last semester, I finally succumbed to a friend’s pleading that I visit the Cheese Cave, a little place in the Claremont Village that sells cheeses, kick-ass sandwiches, and an ass...
I had a surreal experience this morning: I woke up lateish (at 9) and rolled out of bed to get breakfast. Without much thought, I pulled on some clothes and walked out of my dorm room. A boy I didn...
The Medical Mystery Tour continues, but there have been some recent positive developments: thanks to the PT I’ve been doing, I don’t notice the foot floppiness as much walking around, and...
A lot of the time I have a hard time (ugh repetition) cramming all of the things I want to do and need to do in a day, which I’m sure is not unfamiliar to 99% of the population (except maybe th...
Sent: Tuesday, March 27, 2012 6:55 PM To: Coach K Subject: entries; annie goes ballistic Hi. I figured that I would start thinking about the specifics of this: Basically, I’m okay for a few str...
I’ll admit it; I feel kind of like I’m wandering around in the dark with this track season. I’m running really badly, and I don’t understand the way out. I just feel like I do...
I’ve spent the last few days–more than a few days, actually, more like two weeks — feeling really off my game. Oddly fatigued in an unfamiliar way. All of a sudden what was just a h...
Admittedly, it’s been a really long time since I’ve written something on this thing, but the life of a frentic 20-year-old college student prattles on as normal. WordPress sent me a delug...
On Thursday midday I had some bad luck: I left a sweaty shirt and a drawstring bag with my keys, ID, and my phone on the steps of Rains Athletic Center, where Sagehen distance runners have been leavi...
I’m in the library, sitting across from a guy that looks like Burt Reynolds circa Boogie Nights. He is very thoughtfully perusing a copy of the campus paper while eating a Choco Taco from the library...
For some completely unknown reason, I had a ridiculous spike in page views yesterday (think 360 from a norm of about 100-150.) Either my presence has been beyond sorely missed on the interwebs (ha. j...
So the semester has finally settled down and I’ve gotten into the swing of things, so I should now be able to blog more consistently. (Sorry for the lull, Grandma.) In other irrelevant news, so...
I’ve gone AWOL for the last few days– sorry about that. It’s going to be a very busy week, but I got up early this morning and finished an essay, so I’m feeling pretty chipper...
I’m in a Bikram yoga class right now. In order to pass the class, I have to attend at least once a week. It’s not taught on campus– it’s actually at a studio several blocks down a sloping hill. (The ...
Would I get surgery again? Yes. Absolutely. No question. I don’t remember the last time my feet have felt so good. Life is just great in general. My classes are sorted, I finally have an adviso...
I spent the afternoon unfolded on the grass, reading Jawaharlal Nehru in the sun. When I think of Pomona days, these are the kind of moments I think about: lazy, wondrous, filled with the slow progre...
A new crowd of boys has moved into my hall, bringing with them wonderous additions that mostly pop up in our main shared living space: the bathroom. They are all good guys, and I’m sure I do we...
Not going to lie. It’s been a tough week, and I was fighting the blues pretty hard during the middle of it. There’s always some uncertainty and adjustment the first few days of the semest...
It’s been a busy week, but frankly, I can’t say any of it really stood out. I’ve been getting school stuff organized, doing a lot of aqua jogging, and rearranging my room, and someh...
Struggling now with some post-surgery blues, but I’ve been stuck in San Fran/San Jose for the last few days without the time or ability to exercise, so I’m driving myself a bit crazy. For...
Yesterday we were staying at the Hyatt Regency in downtown SF, which alarmingly does not have free internet. This is incredibly irritating—it’s like asking guests to pay for pillowcases, in my opinio...
I’m staying at my sister’s house in San Jose right now. I just spent the last three days exploring San Fran and Silicon Valley as part of a Pomona-sponsored career fair. A charming ex-PPXCer who work...
I leave tomorrow for San Francisco, and I’m sorry to kiss Bozey goodbye. I’m interviewing/checking out a couple different companies in Silicon Valley over the next few days: Google, Trial...
It’s now been just shy of three weeks since I had my foot sliced open, and I suppose it’s time for a general progress report. I sunk into a low grade depression over the last few days, an...
So it’s been a couple of days since I last posted something, which means my loose goal of posting something everyday over winter break was just pretty much a joke. I blame the spotty internet c...
The 28th: Sorry it’s been a few days. I got my stitches removed on the 28th, a day earlier than the doctor had originally planned. The foot looked gruesome that first day, and I was pretty disa...
Well, I’m still one-legged. I’ve decided that the whole “walk around on your foot the same day of surgery” thing was bullshit, but the good news is that the doc can fit me in ...
