The Oregon Trail: Waves of Change
http://oregonbrooke.blogspot.com/2011/05/waves-of-change.html
Tuesday, May 24, 2011. It's been a busy past few months. In fact, I can't believe it's almost summer. Some new and exciting things have happened so far this year:. I tried snowboarding (twice). I fell a lot (a LOT), but I had a BLAST. I can't wait until next winter when I can do it again. I finally ate my first oyster. It was baked with delicious things on top. So good. I joined a softball team for the summer. We won our game this week (my first game)! Amidst all of this, I am eagerly working on my appli...

The Oregon Trail: July 2010
http://oregonbrooke.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, July 15, 2010. People are strange when you're a stranger. I'd like to share a quote from my favorite show, "Curb Your Enthusiasm." Larry: "I don't like talking to people I KNOW, but strangers I have no problem with.". I wholeheartedly agree with Larry. I am (in)famous for striking up conversations with strangers. Some great things have happened as a result of this! Speaking of Larry, last night I dreamed that I met him! Thursday, July 8, 2010. In the past couple of months, I have:. 6 devised an...

The Oregon Trail: January 2011
http://oregonbrooke.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 21, 2011. Yesterday started off really crappily, mostly due to not feeling well. But then at some point in the morning I resolved "it's only going to get better." and it sure did! So what made the day so glorious? 1 I finally made contact with (and heard back from) a graduate school program I'm looking at applying to. 2 Peja Stojakovic is now a Dallas Maverick! 4 Had a great workout. It was my first workout in.too long. 5 It was sunny, and the sunset blew me away. Go Green Travel Green.

The Oregon Trail: October 2009
http://oregonbrooke.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, October 15, 2009. I have been TERRIBLE about updating my blog. Admittedly I attribute this in part to the feeling that the wonderful things about Oregon I have loved are no longer a novelty to me, though I continue to enjoy them. Perhaps I should change the name/focus of the blog. But truth be told, I. I've also been busy outside of work with my book clubs, a Pilates class I recently started, volunteering at the KLCC radiothon, going to Duck games, and planning upcoming events! From September 0...

The Oregon Trail: August 2009
http://oregonbrooke.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Wednesday, August 19, 2009. Today I was thinking about which years in recent life have been my "best" or favorite years. Then I nodded and realized they occur every three years. (3 is inexplicably my favorite number). 2007 - My hair was doing amazing things this year. I also made some new and amazing friends whilst having a blast with my current friends. 2004 - I went to Costa Rica, made new and amazing friends, loved my job, did well in school, learned a LOT, and went to Bonnarooooo. Line in the sand.

Wednesday, January 27, 2010. In the time since I lasted posted, a few things have happened. A) I went to Texas for a fabulous 10 days split between family/friends in Dallas and best good friend time in Austin with Sarah. While it was a whirlwind of a trip and left me pretty exhausted, I had a great time. There's something beyond comforting about being "home.". I definitely think I'm on the upswing as January comes to a close. I've done a lot of thinking about a lot of different things. Luna, life...Sayin...

The Oregon Trail: March 2010
http://oregonbrooke.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Monday, March 29, 2010. Random thoughts for the evening. Who do these cats think they are? I'm moving. Again. I should rap. Not only have I produced the infamous "mad rap libs" (too rated NC-17 for this venue), but I've got a great one in the works now. It goes like. "I got two mugs of bacon grease sittin' up in my fridge. I'm 'bout to cook 'em up in some fat pork ribs." But.envision I mumbled that with a thick southern accent and with Li'l Wayne's inflection. Tuesday, March 23, 2010. It's in the "LISTEN...

The Oregon Trail: It's July...already?
http://oregonbrooke.blogspot.com/2010/07/its-julyalready.html
Thursday, July 8, 2010. The dreaded tonsillectomy has come and gone, and I managed to survive a jalapeno margarita last week, so I think I'm good on the throat front. Life has been pretty busy though! In the past couple of months, I have:. 1 Moved, again. Back to my old neighborhood - perhaps I already mentioned this. 2 Bought a bike and have enthusiastically commenced riding. I ride to run errands, rike to work (sometimes), ride for fun, and best of all, ride in the middle of the night! I'm considering ...

The Oregon Trail: September 2010

Friday, September 3, 2010. I definitely have (a lot of) hangups when it comes to dating. But seeing this movie did not make me want to work on these hangups, like it might make most women. No, instead I went home and decided it was finally time to clean out my book collection. This could be metaphorical.this could just be pragmatic. When I move, most of my boxes contain books. At any rate, the first book I selected for judgment was " The Adjusted American: Normal Neuroses in the Individual and Society.
