September 11, 6 years on...
It's now 8:42 PM (according to my Mac) on a day 6 years ago was landmark in time for our generation... Yup, September 11.
I know it's already September 12 over there where y'alls are as I'm writing this, but I just wanted to put in a little reminder what happened this day 6 years ago. Ashamedly, I didn't even remember what day it was until a random scholar said the date out loud. But today, the war still rages on.
Now enough of the cynical depressed English major! "Michelle" a.k.a Shu Hui reminded me that I have yet to describe my current living conditions. =) I live in a 2-room "condo" apartment, with a girl whose father owns the apartment; I'm gonna have a new roommate come October. It is about 20 steps away from the pool (I counted) and maybe 10 to the laundry room. Very awesome!
I have 3 animals for protection -- a half pitbull/half lab mix (Bagheera), a barky chihuahua (Napoleon) and a declawed furry cat of unknown origin (Valentine). I think the new roommate is gonna add a Persian kitty to the mix because her family breeds them (she's Persian, haha). But so far life has been good, I'm headed up to San Francisco via roadtrippin! before school starts. My digicam is broke right now, so when I get it up again I'll post pics!
I hope you are all having a good school term, I will try and bring back presents for you alls! =)

Tremors!
So i was sitting here in front of my computer today, eating my breakfast and minding my own business, when mother nature decided i needed to be scared -- so she set off a 4.9 earth quake that shook the house and the chair and the floor while the dog stared quizzically at me.
i mean, talk about appetite-upsetting. at any rate, just to let you guys know that earthquakes are as common as pebbles around here, when you came. just in case ;-)
