Post Half-Marathon Thoughts.

by Carly October 22, 2012

If you’re a loyal follower of my blog, surely you remember my overjoyed post about my first half marathon, which I ran in April. My time was a disappointment, but the experience definitely wasn’t. And I think of all the obnoxious pictures of me as I’m crossing the finish line are proof that, although I [...]

It’s About All I Can Take

by Carly October 15, 2012

Guess what! We have officially made it through half of the semester. I know I’m constantly counting the days until Thanksgiving, winter, spring, and summer break (I would include fall break too, but that’s a joke), but I really do love school. I just hate the stress that comes along with it. Oh, and living [...]

Long Time No Blog…

by Carly October 8, 2012

I know, I know. I haven’t blogged in a long time. I didn’t have anything too exciting to talk about the last couple of weeks aside from complaining about a bunch of large projects that I had to do. So, because I put off blogging for so long, I now I have multiple, exciting topics [...]

Well Hello There.

by Carly September 17, 2012

I’ve decided that, for my first blog of the semester, I would respond to the following prompt: “Introduce yourself!” I’ve decided to respond to the aforementioned prompt as opposed to going off on my own tangent for a couple of reasons. One, I’m pretty sure my “About Me” from freshman year is pretty outdated, as [...]

Outro.

by Carly May 7, 2012

I have seven school days left. I’m having a lot of trouble motivating myself to do anything at this point, especially after the awesome Real Estate concert on Sunday night (I got one of the guys in the band to sign the handwritten set list I stole off the stage!) and the totally epic M83 [...]

Waiting for the Right Time.

by Carly April 30, 2012

I made it. I can (almost) officially say that I survived a full year of Organic Chemistry Lab. I didn’t catch anything on fire, make anything explode, break anything expensive, or have to use the safety shower (Although I came pretty close to using the safety shower after spilling acid on my leg. Instead I [...]

You Set the Tempo, Set the Pace.

by Carly April 16, 2012

You Know You’re a Runner When… 1.)  You can devour a whole stack of pancakes (and the side of bacon you requested, too) from Crepes Etc. without feeling like a total fatty because, hey, you just ran 13.1 miles and need to “restore your glycogen reserves.” 2.)  Hills don’t intimidate you whatsoever. 3.)  Your runs [...]

But I’ve Got Friends that Are New Friends.

by Carly April 12, 2012

After agreeing to work with fellow blogger Courtney on our online Organic homework that’s due tomorrow night (which I still have to finish, unfortunately), I made my way to the library computer lab where we had decided to meet. When I arrived, Courtney was nowhere in sight (she was hiding in the back corner), but [...]

Take a Chance, Make a Choice.

by Carly April 2, 2012

The other night I finally had the opportunity to use one of my awesome new cookbooks I got for Christmas (counting the one I got for my birthday a few weeks after the holidays, I got a total of six, I believe, and they tempt me every time I go home). Yes, I decided to [...]

I’m On a Sidewalk Safari.

by Carly March 26, 2012

It’s spring break! Okay, technically there are only three days of it left, but still. Plus, the fact that we have only a full week of school before we get another break for Easter is preventing me from getting too depressed about the fact that our current break is almost over. Throughout the week I’ve [...]
