I'm not dead yet! I could go for a wulk!

O hisashi buri desu!

In other words, "Long time, no see!"

Yes, I've been ignoring the facinating world of blogs and Xanga's partly because I've been....how should I say it...."Lazy." Yes. Lazy. I can admit it! Ahhh I really shouldn't be writing right now as I've got my last final tomorrio. It's a comprehensive exam on the Japanese I've been studying. "So far, so good" as they say. I'm doing well in that class---with the exception of the oral interview I had last Wednesday. I can't even speak in front of people in English, let along Japanese! Good gravy!

Oh! And if you're wondering about the skeletons....they're a preview of the final in Drawing II that I've been working on. Exciting, isn't it? I've spent well over 12 hours on this drawing. I've already debated committing sepuku with my pencil.....twice.

Anyhow! I really need to quite procrastinating. This is just a pleasant reminder that all is well in the Land of LinZ.

Until next time,
Same Sprenkle blog, Same Sprenkle time.

Hello to all

Oh tis the time of year...for finals that is! ugh. school is going well, I finished my senior thesis on wednesday (thank god I couldnt handle thinking about female foeticide and infanticide anymore, yet barring a good grade on it I will do my honors thesis on this topic next semester LOL). 2 finals down and 2 to go, then is a month off. Went home for thanksgiving and got to spend time with theresa and grandma and suz, was really nice but too fast (as always). havent seen a lot of post from people, hope everyone is doing well and is just busy with the holidays. not much new here with me, havent had a chance to visit uncle larry in a long time and feel bad, need to call him soon at least, school occupies most of my time as always, and still need to find a good paid internship for next year while I study for my LSATS and my GREs...and will apply to some grad programs, some law schools (prob. Boalt, hastings, stanford, harvard, yale, columbia, NYU, etc) and some womyns studies masters and phd programs, (oxford and the transnational feminism phd program there starting here in a year or two). what else...um got to work with the gender and womyns studies department when they hired a new prof to teach sexuality...the candidates were amazing, and Im pretty sure Judith Butler sat behind me during one of the talks (eekkk I was to nervous to look or ask LOL!). sarkis is doing well, he finished his work for the Law school here at berkeley and is working for Harvard University next semester, doing reseach on womyn in education, particularly the sciences and the disparity that exist. well Ive rambled, and procrastinated, long enough. hope everyone is doing really well and has great holidays!!!!! oh and Aimee, one semester left! haha, also ive been reading this book, Dictee by theresa cha, amazing! you should check it out, like nothing ive ever read.

LOVE TO ALL!!!!
