Tumbler, it’s been fun. You’re really pretty and it’s flattering when people I don’t know follow me, thus increasing my “tumblarity.” But I’m not interested in re-blogging or only posting one picture at a time or solely posting internet memes SO we’re done. Now that I have graduated I have nothing to do until I go to Europe, except make a new blog...

Conversation with my mother, via BBM, regarding...
Katie: Okay, dinner's at seven.
Barbara: Daddy wants to go a bit later. does that work for you? We just got in and he's tired from driving.
Katie: Well the reservation's at seven... I don't know if I'll be able to change it.
Barbara: Well can you make it at eight?
Katie: Okay did it
Katie: Eight on the patio
Barbara: Does the patio have heat lamps?
Katie: Umm I don't know you can call them and ask 5106524888
Barbara: I couldn't get thru to a live person. I think it'll be too cold for an 85 year old man.
Katie: It's up to you I don't care I live here, just tell me what to do
Barbara: We can leave here in ten minutes. Italian?
Katie: Wait I thought you were coming at eight, hence why I changed the reservation
Barbara: No- now they want to leave in 5 minutes!!! H-E-L-P!!!
Katie: OMG just comeee
Barbara: Calm down. I am relying on you to be sane with me.
Katie: Haha
Katie: Heads up I look tired/homeless. It's been a long week.
Barbara: P
Katie: ? Was that supposed to be an emoticon?
Barbara: We are on our way.

Live Blogging the Panda Express Senate Meeting
I decided to live blog the Panda Express senate meeting (for background info, go here, here, or here) on a whim; I’m a fast typer and have live blogged before and was going to the meeting anyways, so thought I might as well make myself useful. But I learned so much through the process that I decided to edit my original transcript so that, hopefully, Berkeley students and others interested in...
