• profileMy name is Emily and I'm 23 years old living in Massachusetts. I currently am an unemployed college graduate. I absolutely love baseball, and the Boston Red Sox, and Josh Beckett. I also am fascinated with weather, which most people find odd. I love photography and Bob Dylan too. I hope to one day conquer the world with my writing. But we'll see.

So, I’m Done!

So the week is over and college is a distant memory for me right now. Actually not really because graduation ceremony isn’t until the 31st and my party is the 25th. But the acutal work part of college is over. I have a part time job this summer working at a theatre company around here that I’ll be starting when I get back from visiting Ajemi. I’ll be working in their marketing department writing press releases and radio ads about their upcoming plays. It’s going to be exciting because I know the artistic director personally and she’s really nice.

Last night at around 10:30pm, my friend called me and asked if I wanted to go out to a bar and I said sure. I woke up this morning realizing that I should have said no, no matter how much fun it actually was. I’m still sore from Thursday and now I’m super tired. Speaking of Thursday, I started playing Ultimate Frisbee with one of my friends and all of his friends. I forgot how much I loved that game. :)

I’ve discovered the wonder that is Radiohead. They’re not new to me, but I’ve never given an entire album a full listen. I did this weekend and went out and got all of their albums. They’re awesome! Speaking of discovering…I rediscovered my love for Robert Downey Jr. when I saw Iron Man on Wednesday. Fucking UNBELIEVABLE. You guys like it? I might be taking my cousin to see the new Narnia movie if he doesn’t have a makeup baseball game this afternoon.

Now that I don’t have college occupying all of my free time, I’m going to change this site around. I’m going to redesign the one page I have and try to add a plugin rating for the movies I’ve seen. Six-String provides in-depth reviews and possible spoilers and I don’t want to do that here. I want a simple plugin that gives me star ratings. Does anyone know of any good ones?

That’s all…I should go be, productive…or maybe just lazy.

And I just realized that my comments page looks all wonky. I don’t feel like trying to figure out the problem right now because…I’m lazy. :D




Happy 2008

I really don’t have much to post because I’m currently nursing a hangover. Last night some friends and I drove down to a nearby city to listen to a friend’s band play. The band was amazing and the bar was shitty, but I had my alcohol and that’s all that mattered. I also discovered the love that is Red Bull and Vodka. I was quite drunk by the time we left the bar and we all went back to my friend’s house to play pool, foozeball, darts, and drink some more. I didn’t go to bed until around 6am and was up at 9am. Needless to say I’m just a tad bit tired as well.

I hope everyone had a fantastic New Years and hope 2008 will be better than 2007! This is the time for resolutions and I have to say that mine is not as serious as it should be. My mom’s resolution is to lose 10 pounds probably like a lot of people. Mine is just to go to the movies more. How is that? I like going to the movies and I only went three or four times in 2007. I saw Zodiac, Pirates of the Caribbean 3, Shrek 3, and Sweeney Todd. <edit>I forgot one (technically two but I’ve seen it before), I saw Martian Child and The Nightmare Before Christmas in 3-D but I’ve seen that one before so it doesn’t count!</edit> My goal is to see at least 10.
