So adorable.

During my field placement today (a kindergarten classroom), I witnessed these conversations taking place:

Isaac: "Guess how tall I am? 35 feet tall!" (I'm fairly certain he meant to say inches, =D)

Isaac: "Oliver, how many inches are you?"

Oliver: "I'm not sure can you measure me?"

Isaac: "Sure! Stand up and I'll measure you!"

Oliver stands up, Isaac stretches his arms wide.

Isaac: "Umm....about...25 feet."

To which Joey brought up the fact that Oliver actually looked taller than Isaac. (And he is, by a good few inches).

So cute.

Just saw Apocalypse Now for class. I could have lost all faith in mankind due to the Vietnam War. And now I'd just prefer to forget that I ever watched that. But it exists. But I'm going to pass over it. Maybe it's not something to be ignored, but it's not something I want to or can face at the moment.

The one thing I have most often seen in facebook and myspace "about me" sections is this: "I hate drama." And I always thought...well, I don't really know what I thought about these people. I thought it was completely unnecessary to tell the entire world that, though. I mean...really? You hate drama? And that's what you want everyone to know about you? And what kind of person do you have to be to write that on your profile? Do you constantly surround yourself with drama? Is that why you mention it so often?

For the first time, though, I think I fully realize how much I personally hate drama in my life. It causes so, so, so, so, so much unnecessary stress. And for such stupid reasons too. Freakin A.

There's Always Next Year

The teams that do the best regular season always seem to fail to meet that caliber of talent and ability post-season. So sad. But there's always next year, right?

And now it's time for the Lake Show! (Game 1 of the season is Wednesday!) Threeeeee-peat, please!

It's a nice break from studying, reading, and life.

I like to escape from the world by watching television, or watching chick flicks, or reading books. Because we all know life is nothing like an organized and orderly array of sweet (no)things.

It's probably not the smartest idea on earth - turn away from everything so you never have to face trouble, sadness, fear, or disappointment in the eye. But it's what I do.

A Korean alum just donated $7.5 million to the school to build a new dorm.

Ready for occupancy fall of 2012, aka senior year!

Gotta love those Koreans. And Barney Stinson.
