Celebrity endorsements
So far, no celebrity I really listen to has publicly endorsed a candidate for president. I’m fine with that. I have a feeling about whom my favorite famous folks will vote for, but whom they vote for doesn’t sway my vote one way or another.
Voting FOR a celebrity is a different matter. I may still write-in the Grohl-Novoselic ticket.

Hickey war
The boyfriend and I have hickey wars. Right now I am in the lead. He has three hickeys and I only have one on my neck. Well, at the bar over the weekend all of my friends seemed to notice my one. They decided to make it even more obvious by circling it with a pen and drawing a big arrow pointing to it. The boyfriend and I had a talk and we have called a truce on the hickey war.

Moving out
This week my landlord started showing my apartment. It really drove home the fact that I am graduating in 40 days and moving out of this town forever. It’s a little unnerving, but I’m excited. Now if only I had a job for after graduation.

Algae balls
I decided that I wanted a pet this semester, but I didn’t want anything I would likely kill. After a little research, I found the perfect solution — algae balls. Known as Marimo in their native Japan, these little folks are essentially the same as regular algae, except round. They’re really easy to take care of and, aside from looking a bit like a turd, they’ve made my desk much more aesthetically pleasing.

Counting down
With only 40 days and counting until graduation day, the time left until that point is bittersweet. I want to go out and do everything at once, try things I haven’t done yet and live every moment with the same excitement I had my freshman year. Yet with the onslaught of things to do before graduation, it’s hard to stop and make it a priority.
So to everyone graduating in May, remember to stop and smell the roses before walking at the commencement ceremony.

Random love
Last week I was reminded of how awesome random acts of kindness are. They really can make the world a better place. So thanks, pizza man, for your delicious and free breadsticks. You rock my ever-loving carbohydrate world.

Silly Squirrels, Lemon Heads are for kids
Walking by the Niccols building today I found a plastic Easter egg someone had overlooked during their Easter egg hunt. I don’t know how they missed it as it was in plain sight, but a squirrel had chewed a hole in both ends but left the plastic wrap around a Lemon Head intact. Good thing too, I love Lemon Heads … silly squirrels.

New apartment
I am currently looking for an apartment in Seattle and it’s a little harder then I thought it would be. I’ve lived in the same place for several years now and I forgot about the whole moving process. I think I’m going to start now by putting all of my non essentials in boxes. I may have to live with piles of boxes in my apartment for a while, but it’s better than doing everything at the last minute.
