    Here’s a random post for you, because I feel like posting.

    I am waking up at 4:30 tomorrow morning to go cheer one of my best friends on while she runs her first 5K. I will be documenting of course. Maybe I’ll make another video. Who knows?

    I really wanted to do this too. Maybe I’ll get around to it.

    Had a nice lunch with some friends today. it was nice.

    Ok, sleep I must.

    Drive to Work

    By marissa | June 2, 2009

    I decided to play with iMovie. I hope to learn some more mad skills. Here’s my first attempt:


    Drive to Work from Marissa on Vimeo.

    I like to rock out when I drive to work. If nothing else, I hope you enjoy the music.

    I take the scenic route because there is less traffic.

    I could use the wipers more, but I love the way the raindrops stick to the windshield.

    This is Wheaton/Glen Ellyn/Downers Grove everyone. Enjoy the ride – courtesy of a 2002 Mitsubishi Lancer.

    I pretty much posted this everywhere else on the interwebs so why not here? This is my new awesome sticker that I added to my laptop. Artwork and idea provided by: http://bit.ly/15kbWq

    vacation

    By marissa | May 11, 2009

    I can’t sleep.

    I tried, but can’t.

    I’m in need of a vacation.

    I think it is funny that I have been on a blogging vacation of sorts, only to return to talk about vacation.

    I leave for Disney World on Saturday. If you know me, you know that I might have a slight obsession with Disney. It is a healthy one though. It doesn’t consume my life or anything. Just around the time when I leave to go there. A trip to Disney is like – the best thing ever. I love it. I can’t wait to go with my own family one day, but until then my parents and sister (who, yes are still my family) will have to do.

    The week before vacation sucks at work. There is already so much to do, but then I have 3 extra weeks of work to do or at least put wheels into motion for those weeks. Bah!

    4 more working days . . . 4 more working days . . . 4 more . . .

    ¡Viva Vacaciones!

    By marissa | February 21, 2009

    1. The city of Chicago – never ceases to amaze me with something new.
    2. My family
    3. The Goodman Theater’s production of “Desire Under the Elms” by Eugene O’Neil – very good play with a very interesting set and art direction.
    4. Lakepoint Towers – where we are staying for the weekend, I could get used to this.
    5. Jamba Juice.
