Jane Fonda speaks while I’m on the beat (and the street!)

Actress Jane Fonda spoke at Augsburg this morning as a part of our convocation series, but I was busy test-driving an electric car and interviewing the President of Cushman Motors for my job as a journalist. Sorry, Jane!

Settled, soon to be settled in!

My friend and I went apartment hunting this weekend and found the place we'd been looking for. We're putting down the security deposit this week. It is incredibly affordable and quite charming.

Exciting!

Post-college classes

So I've decided to take a couple classes after graduating this December solely for the sake of furthering my own education. I'm all signed up to take a World Religions and a Philosophy class at a state university this spring. I'm excited to continue my education even after graduating.

Here is a picture, as promised. It is kind of fuzzy and looks a little smaller than it actually is, but it is a close representation.

Money is no friend of mine!

Grizzly Bear's new EP, "Friend," is out today. Wish I had the $ for it.

Let it snow (x3)

I'm stuck in the great white north! Car troubles have trapped me in the northern half of the state, but I'm enjoying myself. I'm doing research, running errands (on foot), and enjoying the snow (ACK! SNOW!). I've e-mailed my professors explaining the situation and sending them electronic copies of assignments I have due, and they've all been incredibly understanding and have allowed me to reschedule things as needed. Now... I need to get back to business!

No more opera for me, thank you.

I just spent two days listening to opera singers compete. Now I'm eating a much deserved Big Mac combo with apple pie!
