random bits and pieces

improving myself

yesterday i did two things i've never done before: 1. picked a few locks and 2. highlighted someone's hair. adam was the lucky guinea pig to my little experiment. i think it worked out quite well. of course it does help that the color we chose was extremely subtle. no one has noticed thus far i think that's the effect he wanted though. as for 1. apparently (according to adam) this increases my attractiveness with guys. i'm not quite sure why picking a lock would be particularly attractive unless you were charlize theron in italian job... then i could understand.

went to visit school today. met the director and some professors. everyone is very laid back, but it's so strange being on a college campus. and these days everyone looks so young...

had a good talk with mom on relationships and dating today. i always feel better after talking about these things with her. i'm not sure why. i guess because my mom means so much to me. she still thinks that i should date irwin. maybe by age 32... :)

well i go home tomorrow. it'll be good to be home for an extended period of time. i think this proves that i would never survive the consulting lifestyle. i get sad when i'm far away consistently. it helps that i'm addicted to IM and most of my friends are on IM so i can keep in touch that way. a bit sad that i can't just go and hang out with them though :(.
