i haven't posted in over a month, due to end of the semester schoolwork and laziness. i've tried to write a new post a couple times since i finished last week, but got sick of them. since i decided i wasn't going to be happy with anything, i've decided to cover a month of my life in one rambling list. the rambling is puncuated by the fact i am not capitalizing any words. so read up, enjoy, and hopefully i'll be posting on a regular schedule from now on.
