It’s Not A Party Until Someone Loses Their Pants

Tuesday, October 9th, 2007

This weekend I went to a party in San Antonio. The lovely Girl Ferret turned 27, and accordingly the lovely Girl Ferret’s lovely girl friend (the notorious Hä.N.Ni) turned green. Yes kids, much merry–and mixed drink—making was had.
Don’t worry about me though. It is true that someone, after seven vodka shots, fell asleep on the [...]

In Memorium of the Tragedy at Virginia Tech

Monday, April 16th, 2007

Oh my god.
That’s all I could say.
So many times today, that’s all I could utter.
As I watched the numbers mount—2 … 20 … 33 dead—I was incredulous. This fountain of love, blood, muscle, and mucus, this body that houses my heart, it went numb.
After all, this hits close to home. I am a Virginia Tech [...]

The Reformation

Saturday, May 31st, 2003

In order to make a fresh start, one must often discard the old and look to the new. And like Christinia Aguilera trading in her Disney good looks for Xtina’s skanky, peirced grunge, I have decided to change things up as well - I’m reformatting my harddrive today.
While looking through the hundreds of files [...]

To Recap

Friday, May 23rd, 2003

Live from room 254, it’s the latest installment of hännihouse! I’ve been out of blogging for a while. You see, i’ve had to take a break from blogging. I’ve had to focus on the things that really count… the things that make the world so wonderful. The things that I’m talking [...]

Behold! The New College Graduate

Tuesday, May 6th, 2003

I did it. I am writing at this momentous time in my life to inform you, dear readers, that I am a new college graduate! As of fifteen minutes ago I just completed my last ever undergraduate exam, and come Saturday it’s goodbye Hänni Horn, fabulous college co-ed, hello Hänni Horn, fabulous woman [...]

A Wee Bit O’ Foolery

Monday, May 5th, 2003

First final was completed this morning, and I think it went fairly well, except that I almost didn’t get to take it. Why you may ask? Well, I didn’t read the final notification email that explicitly stated the exam would take place across campus in the Comm building, and not in our regular [...]

Panic Attack

Sunday, May 4th, 2003

Just yesterday I was boasting about how relaxed I was about this whole finals/graduation thing. I was very careful to elaborate on every aspect of relaxation, noting in particular that I wasn’t having any sleeping problems or nervous twitches under the left eye. I left out the part about me, in an effort to [...]

When the Shark Bites

Thursday, May 1st, 2003

Well kids, it’s officially over. My days as a college student are numbered as all that stands between me and my degree are two final exams. And I think about the multiples of final exams that I have endured throughout my years in academia, and know that these two are not gonna bend [...]

With a Rebel Yell

Friday, April 25th, 2003

The days keep coming without fail, and as I inch closer to *the* day, the graduation day, things seem to be getting more bizarre. The residents are getting a little testy, (I could write a whole blog on this, calling it, “adventures in babysitting”), and the internship coordinators, like Jesus on the third day, [...]

WOW That’s What I Call Blogging

Tuesday, April 22nd, 2003

1 test, 1 quiz, 2 finals and a partridge in a pear tree. I’m almost a college graduate, baby! I’ve just got those four pesky test-type things to deal with, then it’s sayonnara hallowed halls of academia!
I went to visit my academic advisor, Waggs today. She always puts me in a fabulous [...]
