J-I-L-Y

The life and times of this fun-loving twentysomething, as she lives it up and laughs it off in the Chi.


Invictus

Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find, me unafraid.
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.

“ I bought beer and candy at dominicks…the cashier said “gurl why you got beer and candy on a tuesday afternoon..did yo boyfirend break up wit you? Someone celebrated the first final in style.  That same someone would not get an A in spelling.  Someone else did NOT do interval training tonight, but had a lovely blackened fish sandwich at Bandera.


Big Day Tomorrow

in the McDonnell/Rolwes household.  Someone is taking her very first law school finals, another thinks that she will integrate interval training into her evening workout (for at least 15 minutes) to repent for the extensive caloric celebration she’s had for the last seven days, and that writing her to-do task on a public forum will help her remain accountable to such task.  I’ll let you wager a guess as to which activity falls to what member of the household.
