Hello, everyone!

You have reached the rambling, the fangirling, and the general chill-pad of theOtaku's NightBeck, a.k.a Becky, a.k.a Crimson Lotus the Irish Ninja.

... okay, maybe not the last one. But people will be calling me that one day.

I'm concerned for my favorite professors. And if they got rid of the Rose Art Museum, what's to stop them from scrapping one of my small majors in my senior year? And let's forget about my financial aid package. If they're increasing the number of acceptances, they'll diminish my scholarships and use them for incoming freshmen instead. (I don't know where those incoming freshmen are going to <i>live</i>, but.)

Just... thanks so much, Madoff. I really hope you're happy.

"I mean, I CAN get there. I just don't have any shoes."

So today, I walked across the majority of Brandeis campus in flip-flops that were about six sizes too huge, and then battled with the Brandeis Public Safety department. It was good times. So the first thing you should know is that the door ...

Oh my God. I totally WAS planning on doing a Bloc workshop this week, and then the bus I was taking home broke down and left me on the highway for an hour ;;

Next week I'm writing it in advance.
