I got PROMOTED!!
I am now officially the web editor for the magazine for which I work! (I was going to leave the preposition at the end “that I work for,” but then I decided that I better be super grammatically correct now that I’m an editor).

I'm running again!
I’m so excited! I was running over the summer, but then I went on the backpacking trip from hell and basically fell deathly ill. [Sidenote: no joke, I had literally hundreds of bug bites all over my body, some of which became infected. I had a horrible allergic reaction to something (I’m guessing nature) and had to go on broad spectrum antibiotics because they had no idea what was...

According to my econ professor...
You can get a “magic A” in his class if you a) get nominated by your TA as being the most helpful and awesome in recitation or b) write a paper in which you argue that he’s wrong about some economic issue.
I’m considering asking him if I can argue why an entry in SUPERFREAKONOMICS is wrong. It’s about prostitution, but the argument is basically incomplete and...
Official Name Change: Read!
I changed my tumblr handle because I got a creep-tastic follower that I didn’t want viewing my page. Like. At all. Basically, his entire feed was a mix of (female) porn and really weird 90s references.

Why I think I'm a Slytherin....
I just weaseled my way into the honors section of my economics course!!
I was sitting in the front row of my class, as per usual, and I overheard my professor talking to a T.A. about letting some of the kids into his honors section. He mentioned letting in one kid with a 3.2 because he was “whip smart” but denying another. And I’m like, there are spaces left in the honors...

I really just need a really good cry right about now. One of my “friends” who looked over my app said that I sounded too “full of myself.” As soon as this goshdarn thing is submitted, I’m going to watch UP and eat the rest of my nutella.
