CUNY Bans Smoking On All 23 Campuses - Gothamist →
This means I will want to spend even less time on campus. Though I rarely smoke more than one cigarette before classes, there is something to be said for being able to sit and drink my coffee and have a cigarette with fellow students that promotes a certain level of involvement on campuses that have no social aspect to them.

The Temperature in My Freaking Apartment
I can’t control my heat. This is probably weird if you don’t live in New York or some other old city with more people living in apartments than houses. I can’t remember the last place I lived where I could control my heat, but my guess is that is was one of those apartment hell complexes I detest so much.
Most people can’t control their indoor climate either and what...

This is why I stick around.

I prefer to call it Club Soda for very stupid reasons …
Woke up early because lately I can’t seem to sleep more than 4 hours without NyQuil or Jameson to help. Then proceeded to waste any extra time acquired through sleep deprivation by playing Lego Harry Potter 1-4 on my iPod for two hours while catching up on the Daily Show.
Today is my last day off for a week, so I want to make the most of it. Yesterday’s gluttony? Lying in bed and...

First Snow Night in Gowanus
Have a to-do list of things that need to be done around the apartment and a very snugly (yet still vicious) roommate’s cat both vying for my attention.

Then collapse, excessively proud of my achievement to work on a...
