1. Derek Morgan is hands down my favorite character on Criminal Minds.I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again, Shemar Morgan is a beautiful human being. Even Andrea conceded that he wore stubble well. :P
2. I’m getting nostalgic about music I listened to in high school. Meaning, all the Japanese rock I’m currently missing. [...]
Have a terrible haiku:
snow day, knife in throat
blue forget-me-not skies
sulking in my room.
I wish we were allowed to return our bodies or demand a refund. Mine’s totally defective and I’m not sure if it’s because I was a preemie and therefore my health was severely compromised early on or if I’m just unlucky.
I’m asthmatic [...]
After a long hiatus from working out (not including my few measly attempts at running over winter break that could be more accurately described as “jog/walk/run/walk/walk/jog/maybe think-about-running-some-more” while listening to cheesy techno-pop music) I had my first Project Fitness class today and we did lunges, squats, and even more lunges.
My thigh muscles are currently saying [...]
My body’s defective. I would like a refund, thankyouverymuch.
I had delicious crabcakes with tartar sauce for lunch.
I just got out of a training session for work and I feel like the epitome of misery. My stomach, why do you not know good food when you see it? :| My plans for the rest of this [...]
Today I accidentally hiccuped and sneezed at the same time and nearly gave myself a nosebleed.
EPIC FAIL, SELF.
Dear body,
Anytime you like to stop hating me would be appreciated, thanks.
And for the record, I’m actually not trying to poison you. (It was a freaking salad. What do you want from me?)
No love,
Stacy
So, I know by now that my skin is extremely sensitive. I will randomly get temporary blisters/welts (for no apparent reason, and it kinda freaks me out) and I always have to wear SPF 15 everyday.
I know that my body is sensitive because I have allergies and I’m asthmatic.
And now, I’m beginning to think that [...]
Dear body,
I’m still not pleased with your current shenanigans.
I coughed–> hiccuped–> nearly passed out today.
This is a problem. :|
No love,
Stacy
Epiphany: I would probably save a lot of time and energy if I got “it’s a hiccup, not a sneeze” tattooed to my forehead.
Dear Body,
I had a legit meal today1. For the sake of my well-being (and my wardrobe– all my jeans are now too loose on me!), please stop acting like I’m feeding you poison.
I am not mentally stressed despite my workload, but I know that you think I should be under stress (hence the lack of [...]
Try to get as much work done as possible.(15 page paper! 5 page paper! Chinese homework!) This might be problematic because my cognitive ability has been massively compromised. Case in point: For the past hour, my thoughts have been wavering between “I have pretty hair” and “why are there penguins tap-dancing in my skull?” so [...]
Stacy’s Lesson of the Day:
DO NOT BUY FOOD WHEN YOU’RE OBVIOUSLY DELUSIONAL AND SICK.
I slept through all four of my alarms today1. I sort of feel like something the cat dragged out. I have flu-ish symptoms (please don’t be swine ! please don’t be swine!) so I’m quarantining myself to my room and praying that [...]
How excited am I to go ice skating at Penn rink this Saturday?
Very excited. It’s been ages (maybe two years?) since I last stepped into a rink.
That should be a crime since my house is a couple minutes away from a rink (although they keep strange free skate hours) and I have my own pair [...]
I have no idea why my subconscious has decided to torture me this week.
First the fossil hominid dreams (which, okay, in retrospect? Kinda hilarious) but now… this.
On Facebook, I was invited to an event called Ladies for Themselves Day. The creator told us the story behind the event:
Just about everyday I hear a friend, family member, classmate, or even a random girl in the bathroom, put themselves down. Well I think i’ve just about heard enough! We’re all guilty, it just [...]
The geology trip wasn’t nearly as bad as I thought it would be. I bonded with Emily and Jamie, everyone in class probably wanted to shoot me for being so insanely bouncy while everyone was wet and tired. (It poured.)
Forge Historical Park is pretty– just not when it’s raining.
I went to Britt’s 20th birthday party [...]

Happiness is a glass of chocolate soy milk, and two slices of toasted whole wheat bread with pseudo-butter (bread toasted just enough so the faux-butter melts).
Absolute perfection.
It’s my day off and I’ve been so lazy. I almost didn’t make the above deliciousness because it would mean having to hunt down [...]

I need to make a Daydreamer/Idealist playlist. I’ve always viewed myself as a cynical optimist (since I was thirteen at least) but I’ve become more of an idealist recently. I think our new administration has a lot to do with it; I’m pretty much in love with the direction that [...]
Like most college students, I sometimes just don’t have time to sit down and eat or I’m not hungry at dinnertime1 so I usually get take-out from either Haffner or Rhoads.
Last night around eleven-ish, I reheated my take-out from Haffner without knowing that one of the dishes was mayo-based. (Later, my roommate kindly pointed that [...]
Written last night at approximately 11:30 PM:
This evening one of Andrea’s classmates invited her to have dinner with her! And invited me along! So we had sushi at Sushi Land om nom nom nom~! It was delicious.
After getting back to campus, Andy and I realized we had no plans for tonight since Andrea’s plans had [...]
Oh my god. I think I managed to get food poisoning at breakfast because I spent my last class quietly trying my best not to upchuck and/or faint.
I have to moderate a freaking debate on Chinese Human Rights in an hour and I can’t skip that.
This is so hilariously ironic. Andy and I never get [...]
SETTING: LAST NIGHT, at around 11 PM
Meegan: Everyone’s sick. I think Merion is diseased.
Stacy: I just checked Facebook and someone said that a lot of people are also sick. So– Kendra’s sick, Lavanya’s sick, Amanda, Luie, Evan, Andrea was sick. That was much a roll call.
Kathryn: Susie’s in the hospital because she had a really [...]
GOOD THINGS!
1. I have girl scout cookies! Thin Mints, Peanut Butter Patties, and Thanks-A-Lots. I’m probably going to gain ten pounds in the next two weeks but I don’t care.
2. I’m madly in love with Psych, the show. It’s predictable, safe, adorable, and hilarious. In other words: perfect braincandy for me to watch when I [...]
I had a dream that can summarized as this: James Bond and ninjas.
I’ll let you ponder upon this one for a while.
My subject title? True story.
Got back from the Bi-Co Chinese New Year dinner thing at Haverford. There were dumplings and cute EAS profs being cute.
ME: *coughing fit, sneezes*
ANDREA: *staring*
ME: ?
ANDREA: … do you need a hug?
ME: … I’m afraid of getting you sick. :(
STORY OF MY LIFE, YOU GUYS.
My nose is stuffed up and runny, [...]
