five things to do besides study

1) Stare out my window into a high-traffic alley. I saw a car side-swipe a trash can earlier and knock off its mirror. Now I listen to the crunching of glass and plastic every time another car drives over it.
2) ... facebook ... damn you.
3) Look up lyrics to the (not so) large pool of music that keeps repeating on pandora.
4) Be right back. My girlfriend just asked if I wanted to go for a walk.

::: 20 minutes later :::

5) Post to a blog that I have neglected for the past ten months.

five resolutions

1) a written motion adopted by a deliberative body
2) the replacement of one longum with two brevia
3) the point in a literary work at which the chief dramatic complication is worked out
4) be proud of who I am. A young privileged Hokie American poor law student hopeful.
5) learn a new language

from email to blog to mission accomplished

My sister sent me one of those chainy emails a week ago. It was a list of lists. I drooled. Here are my answers.

1) Four places that I go to over and over: kroger, the bathroom, on a run, the cellar (bar)

2) Four people who e-mail me regularly: grandma, varous virginia tech listservs, facebook, prince zhibaraj of kenya

3) Four of my favorite places to eat: in my bed, on a comfortable couch, on a grassy hill, with my family

4) Four places I would rather be right now: in a movie theater, chicago, in law school, two years ago

5) Four people I think will respond: no one reads my blog

6) Four TV shows I watch: ace of cakes, the office, bizarre foods, no reservations
