my june

right now i'm studying for a big big exam. well, not right now. i'm distracting myself with a blog post. to be completely correct, i'm taking a study break from studying for a big big big career altering exam. it has been exhausting - but then again, so has all of grad school so far. 

it's all making me a little looney. in one day, i can oscillate from being super over the top excited about the possibility of doing well to chest-pain-and-panicky-dread about how i'm definitely no question about it 100% going to fail. the mind games i'm playing make me wonder how the average student holds it together - what are the tricks to being motivated, focused, and effective during a [seemingly] nonstop parade of marathon study days? and furthermore, how does one make room for things like cooking dinner and walking the dog and trying to get in shape for a 5k?

i guess the first step is to go study some more. 

xoxo,

why aren't you paying attention to me?

what's happening

i am: 
dogsitting a boston terrier named dudley. is eleanor happy about it? you tell me. either way the old lady needs some proper canine socialization, it's obvious.
enjoying the ever loving daylights out of peony season. i cannot resist them when i go to whole foods, even though they are two dollars a stem. it's the little things in life. right? RIGHT? especially when i am studying and studying and studying some more. gotta go listen to some more edward goljan, the ol goof. send patience vibes my way. 

xoxo, 
k, e, and d

go sadness

i'm in a golden age
a great calendar page
i spotted the right time
the future is mine

i got the greatest dog
the best of them all
i love my brother
he's on my wall

bye bye car keys
hello sparkles and flies
i keep them
they're mine

I saw the brightest light
It was the most wonderful sight
And I spotted the right time
The future is mine


bye bye car keys
hello sparkles and flies
i keep them
they're mine

the bipartisan push to tighten rules on gun purchases has failed in the face of fierce nra opposition


"The vote was 54-46 in favor of the amendment, which is six votes short of the number needed to defeat any g.o.p. delaying tactics."

despicable.
