How many people have used that as a title for a post before? Surely more than I have years of life. Oh well, I never claimed to be creative.

I Suppose Some Apologies Are in Order
So I essentially fell off the face of the earth for two weeks. Sorry about that. It wasn't only here, if that makes you feel any better. I didn't leave my room for an entire week, and the week before I only did for two classes and grocery shopping once.

Of Packing, Partings, Planes, and Poor Planning
"I'm not sure what I'll do, but - well, I want to go places and see people. I want my mind to grow. I want to live where things happen on a big scale." - F. Scott Fitzgerald I said previously that I would chronicle my upcoming exchange to Oslo, Norway on this blog, and, … Continue reading Of Packing, Partings, Planes, and Poor Planning
