Name: Kristina
Gender: Female


Interests: I have a penchant for dancing in the rain and drinking Aquafina. Music is a daily companion, as are books. Sadly, I find it incredibly easy to get lost in a bookstore or library for hours. I play the guitar when I'm angry and drink far too much coffee. I love black and white pictures. My favorite part of going to see a movie is watching the previews, it's not worth going if I don't see them. I love learning about different religions and watching soccer on tv. I have a small, odd obsession with languages and a passion for travel.
Expertise: "An expert is someone who knows more and more about less and less, until eventually he knows everything about nothing."

Christmas shopping done, now four finals to go. I haven't really begun to study yet. It's going to be a delightful weekend. But really, life can't be too bad. I am officially an Art History/French double major. I'm sitting outside my class, listening to Christmas bells jingle and waiting for the holiday episode of The Office to load. Not too bad. Could I be studying? Of course not. It's clearly too cold to study.

“ I am sending you
postcards from a place
where I am not.

We’re not tourists, we’re travelers

A tourist is someone who
thinks about going home the
moment they arrive

Whereas a traveler
might not come
back at all.”



Paul Bowles

Things I would do before writing my essay:

listen to Miley Cyrus
go to work
get a shot
clean the bathroom
watch episodes of The Office i've seen a million times before
study other things

I've reached the point where I can not possibly be motivated any more. It's a struggle to even get out of bed. With two tests, a quiz and beucoup de reading for this week...this could not have come at a more inopportune time. I could dedicate all day today to doing all those things. But sleeping sounds so much better. Or reading what I want to read. It's a perfect day for just doing nothing...in the best way. Cold, misty and gray.
I spend too much time thinking of what I would be doing, of what I want to do... and not enough time doing. What's worse is that while I'm dreaming of all those things, what actually needs to be done is left undone.
