Ahhhhhhh y'all I'm supposed to be going to LA in a few weeks to visit Stef and I'm gonna audition for The Voice while I'm there cause everyone is telling me to and hopefully I'll be volunteering at a GLAAD event over the weekend and holy fuck I'm gonna want to move to LA before the week is up. Stef can I move in with you?
Lmao LeakyCon followed me on Twitter so I have to stop talking shit about them cause now they’ll see it lol
hi, so i've found your camera post and wanted to ask about the canon powershot camera (the first one). i've wanted to upgrade (i recently started a journalism program) and figured i'd ask about it and how the pictures come out (10mp is decent on the camera..).
The SX10? It's a good camera (Canon has several upgraded versions, so it's no the most recent by any means) - and I like how it shoots. It's still a pretty basic point and shoot but it's highly customizable. I don't have a LOT uploaded that I've shot, but I did shoot my kelly show last year -- http://www.flickr.com/photos/30498174@N02/sets/72157629271786655/
Btw I think I’m totally falling for my manager and I don’t know what to do about it help
*picks up a guitar* *plays a weird out of tune chord because idk how to play guitar* I'm really sorry I've not been on tumblr lately. *strums another ugly chord* I've been really busy but please don't forget about me. *smashes guitar on the ground* I promise I've not been ignoring anyone!

Hey, sorry if it's a bother. But can I ask about A&M like is it nice? Do you like it?Idk, I'm just curious about it bc I'm not really happy with the University I'm starting in the fall and I'm thinking of dropping it and applying to A&M or else where
Not a bother at all! :) I actually did my undergrad at TAMU (I'm class of 2009), and I'll be at another university this fall to start on my Ph.D. But CSTX is my hometown, and I also spent the past year teaching freshman/sophomore writing classes here, so I hope you'll still value my opinion cuz I guess that still makes my experience here recent-ish?
Anyway, I really love the university atmosphere here. Everyone is really friendly, and the university is a really tight-knit community. Many of my friends say that makes this place feel like a home away from home, which made TAMU a great university for undergrad.
If you're thinking about coming here for undergrad, I would suggest living on-campus (or at least somewhere near campus) for your first year. I mean, campus accommodations are gross anywhere you go, but the reason I suggest living on-campus is it gives you a chance to really get to know your peers, and it almost forces you to get involved so that you're pretty much bleeding maroon by the end of your first week, lol.
Also, if you like to get your party on, there are a couple on-campus dorms literally across the street from Northgate, which is where all the bars, clubs, etc. are located. I wouldn't actually recommend living in said dorms (I imagine it's frequently loud/rowdy around there), but I figure I ought to mention it since that walking distance-ness is nice. (That's not really my scene, though, so I can't say much else about it.)
I think my favorite thing is the huge variety of classes available. I'm a Shakespearean, and one of the cool things for me is I got to study with the editor of the World Shakespeare Bibliography (he even wrote a rec letter on my behalf for grad school!). The university gets a bunch of visiting professors/lecturers (they pop in for a semester or two), guest lecturers/speakers (they pop in for a class/day or two), cool exhibits (the MSC has an amazing art gallery that frequently rotates out art and also hosts musicians some nights), etc., so there are literally more options than you'll have time to explore. And the content of the classes? Awesome. For instance, I took three senior seminar courses (I think most majors require only one or two): one was about Shakespeare, another about Henry James, and the third was about Bruce Springsteen. Also took a history of rock and roll elective class and met Sean Astin (Samwise Gamgee!!!1) during it cuz apparently, he's friends with the prof who taught the class, and he was in town campaigning for Hillary Clinton at the time or something?! Idec—random happy coincidence for me! LOL.
But seriously, HUGE variety of classes offered. All cultures, languages, interests, etc. I'm an English lit. person, so I can give you more info on English lit. if you need it. Buuut I actually majored in chemical engineering for the first three years of undergrad, so I can also give you quite a lot of math/science info, too! And I minored in psychology and business (the business school here is stellar), so I can give you info on that, too. Just send me an ask/message if you want clarification on anything related to classes. :)
Idk which university/college you're at now, but I'd say TAMU is fairly large. Some of my lecture classes from undergrad had 200-300 students in it! I mention this because that makes some people nervous. It is definitely easy to get lost in that mess, but if you can force yourself to ask questions/go to office hours when you need to, make friends, get involved, etc., it's not so scary. :) But if you're reallllly shy, just sit near a cadet. They're required to say "howdy" to everyone, lol. (It's like reverse royal palace guards!) It's a little bizarre when perfect strangers say, "Howdy!" when they walk past you while you're on your way to class, but then you begin to expect it, and you return the greeting, and it's just NICE. Like the people here. NICE. :)
And I like the town size. It's not too big and not too small. It's within driving distance of Houston (about an hour to an hour and a half, depending on traffic), so you can plan weekend trips to the Galleria or go see a ~show or whatever and then come back to our quaint little college town!
I hope that helps! I know it was a little all over the place. If you want to know about anything else, just ask! :)

gurl.. my orientation starts tomorrow. i know your feels.
My orientation starts on the 22nd, and I think it's only a day earlier than all the other grad students cuz I'm also teaching at the university (so we get all the class prep and HR seminars—blegh). But that's definitely not as bad as starting tomorrow. Gross! D:
