October 31, 2011
I never intended to end up on the roof of Peters. It just happened.
Faux-op
October 30, 2011
This year, I didn't get into a co-op. Where was I going to get my weekly serving of granola? How could I say goodbye to the cinder block-sized bricks of cheese that arrived every Wednesday? Was I going to waste away trying to cook all my meals for myself?
Teaching

Chalkboard Blogging
October 7, 2011
Explanation: I showed up at a bloggers' meeting without my computer, but with my camera. I was going to chat for a bit and then go, but Ma'ayan pointed out that there was a chalkboard in the room and challenged me to tell a story in nothing but photos. This is the result.

My last first semester
October 6, 2011

Oberlin, even with the all-nighters, the snowy Aprils, the death icicles looming on my roof, mouthfuls of saltless co-op lentils, has been nurturing me this whole time with arms wide open. Oberlin and I have been spooning for three and a half years, and I'm about to be kicked out of bed into a pair of knobbly hobbit-shoes.

Zombies on campus
September 17, 2011
Zombies, Nerf guns, and many pictures. What else could you want?
Get Your Swag On
September 15, 2011
We may not wear our Oberlin pride as sleeve tattoos, but we will drape them on our torsos in a wide array of colors and designs.
I've Been Back For . . .
September 11, 2011
A batch of chai cinnamon rolls, a pan of brownies, a Cat cookie, a night of playing with glow poi, a contra dance, three textbook sales, many books, many friends.
Hello Goodbye
September 10, 2011
In which I very belatedly introduce myself so that we can be friends.
