Well, for the first time in years, my PhD isn't on my mind. My thesis is completed, and I submit it in a couple of weeks. (It's called a doctoral dissertation, Stateside; a PhD thesis in the UK.) I'm planning another couple of months in Seattle from February, while I have time to rest and prepare for my viva.

I almost unfriended my cousin tonight,for some shit slinging about Eddie.He posted the rant Eddie did while in England this last year.I told him it wasn't directed at Palestine,But aimed at Russia and their invasion of Ukraine.Correct me if I'm wrong! I just don't believe that folks should jump to conclusions and accusations,if they don't get the whole story.And that's another thing the article mentioned. The fact that he wasn't clear on the subject,That he is never clear and that he's friends with Roger Waters,So that must explain it all. What the hell is that supposed to mean?
Nice to be off tomorrow. I hope nobody is too demanding. I just want a chill, peaceful day

Had a most amazing first Christmas! Lots of love and food and new goodies!
How wonderful it worked out for you! You've had a tough time lately; I hope 2015 is better for you.
Thank you I feel like a lot of people had a rough 2014, hoping 2015 brings more smiles than not to as many as possible!

I wish I'd been better at making friends when I was in school. 10-year reunion yesterday left me envious of those who left school with a group of friends who'd last, while I can't honestly say I have any close friends

I kinda feel the same way. Or atleast, I should have made a bigger effort to keep some. I have an informal reunion this coming Friday and I'm not sure how it's gonna go. My closest friends are my family, and beyond that, some friends that have grown into more of aquaintanes...

From what I have seen here, looks like they are the ones that should have made a bigger effort!

Don't let that bother you! If somebody wanted to remain your friend, they would have made the effort to stay in touch.
Don't be embarrassed to tell people how you plan to spend NYE (or any other 'event'), be proud of how you spend your 'me time'. I don't feel the need to be constantly surrounded by people....seems so 'co-dependent' .
The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.
I've been planning a non-existent Disney vacation for the past couple days. I want to go so badly!! Haven't been in a long while. My bf and I are aiming for a trip sometime in 2016

Got an appointment with the doctor about my back in a few hours. I'm afraid he's gonna tell me to fuck off. I don't even know what I want out of this appointment.

I don't understand why I have to wait in the waiting room for an hour before I see the doctor
That's why it's called the waiting room and not the get in to see the Dr right away room......
But truthfully it's bullshit that you have to make an appt., which if you are late for they charge you and you have to rebook, and yet they can make you wait forever with no repercussions!
Anything you lose from being honest You never really had to begin with.
Sometimes it's not the song that makes you emotional it's the people and things that come to your mind when you hear it.
