The Rest of My Life: September 2014
http://thecorri.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
The Rest of My Life. Tuesday, September 9, 2014. Today I made Kyo take pictures of me. If you look around the internet or in photo albums or wherever pictures of me are stored, you'll find that very few exist in which I'm not making some sort of ridiculous face or gesture. I can't help it. The camera turns my way and I go full-ham. But today I wanted a souvenir. E, or that I obtained awesome grad school friends, or that I met the cast of Empire Records. Or that I wrote a thing. I'm a girl of great contra...

The Rest of My Life. Wednesday, December 31, 2014. 2014: the year i got sick of the internet. All four of my high school friends. jk, jk. I had at least five. At this moment, I have eight tabs open with articles reacting to Jay Wilds' interview. With The Intercept, and there are literally thousands more comments on the subject in the Serial subreddit. And even if I do have something groundbreaking to say, are we not already a little overwhelmed by the sheer volume of related reading? The Why-This-Author-...

The Rest of My Life. Monday, March 25, 2013. Corrigan's Guide to Not Being Obnoxious on Facebook. Social networking can be a beautiful thing. It allows us to maintain friendships and connections that would otherwise be rendered near impossible by constraints of time and distance. It bonds us closer to people with whom we might not have otherwise realized we had so much in common and provides an easy way for us to keep in touch with those we hold most dear. No, for real. 92. Help me. If you're constantly ...

The Rest of My Life: Letters to other drivers.
http://thecorri.blogspot.com/2013/04/letters-to-other-drivers.html
The Rest of My Life. Monday, April 29, 2013. Letters to other drivers. Dear Lexus/Mercedes/BMW/mid-life-crisis-car Driver,. Nobody thinks you deserve to get places faster than we do just 'cause your car is shinier and has more toys in it. I'm sure you're a real big deal at Jerkface and Associates, but when you tailgate and swerve around the rest of us, we have this uncanny ability to band together as one body to stop you from getting where you want to go. Test it. The shoulder is not a lane. Unless you h...

The Rest of My Life. Monday, December 17, 2012. 1568] bombs and bullets and bullets and bullets. Pardon me, sir, but I was made to believe there. Would be pipe bombs.". Last Thursday, my school, Cal State Fullerton, was on lockdown. For seven hours while a SWAT team searched the premises for an armed robber. The next day, Sandy Hook. The day after that, a lockdown at Fashion Island after a man fired off 50 rounds. Why didn't I try to move to Belfast? You mean I have to wait till morning for my free taco?

The Rest of My Life: To properly mourn for Boston
http://thecorri.blogspot.com/2013/04/to-properly-mourn-for-boston.html
The Rest of My Life. Wednesday, April 17, 2013. To properly mourn for Boston. It always seems insensitive for the sun to shine when terrible things are happening. Today was a gorgeous day. One for the books, I swear. And yet. It took me weeks to cry about 9/11, but today the tears came easy. Something about it all. Maybe the streets I've walked time and time again. Remember the ghost tour? You ever seen your home torn apart? The place you hold responsible for the core of who you are? I guess there's some...

The Rest of My Life. Monday, June 29, 2015. Stress made me chubby. and people still frickin' LOVE me. Cause Spanx are a girl's best friend. Or so I thought. Clearly, people find me to be a disgusting beast. I almost didn't post this amazing pic because of my chubby arms. That is the dumbest thing on the planet. I am worth so much more than my stupid, chubby arms. Im hoping that this is at least somewhat tongue in cheek because what I see when I look at these pictures is curvaceous and beautiful! Bookish;...

True, those lazy days of freedom and good weather are fast shrinking to naught but fond memories, but you guys, How I Met Your Mother. Is coming back and a friend's cousin's brother who knows a page who made out with a secretary at CBS swears. This is the season we find out who the mother is! Those that only know him from Hackers.
