Ok, so some of you may have noticed how there's a link that says "Best" on my navigation bar now. So yeah, compiling a list of what I think are some of my best entries in here.
Also, if anyone cares to nominate particular entries of mine for this list, please feel free. My email is on the same nav bar. I'll probably put those nominations in a separate list, though I don't expect too many anyhow. Not trying to make anyone do it; but if you're bored and/or really like something I've written, it'd be nice of you to drop me a line. C'est tout.

Osculum et physica
Latin for "Kiss and physics", an entry triggered by reading for my math class, about kissing. Not entirely accurate any longer (see "Nothing much" below), but still a good read.

Smorgasbord
The title was designed to reflect the bunches of thoughts offered in this entry. It's vague in spots; then again, that probably means there are multiple meanings going on anyhow. Anyone who can find and place all the quotes would greatly impress me. To this day, no one has tried to guess the secret password.

Quotes sans rambling
The second entry composed around a series of quotes from other people's online diaries, this time without added commentary from me (hence the title). People really seemed to like this one when I posted it, though most who said so are people I quoted. In any case, everyone seemed to take it her or his own way, none of which precisely matched mine, incidentally. Which is pretty cool, I think.

Je suis un mauvais ami
French for "I am a bad friend", an entry about my failings as a friend. A list of 11 things. Triggered by a specific instance of me being a jerk, it applies generally. I would like to think I'm getting better, though.

Nothing much
This one's here mostly to update the story since "Osculum" above. Really not a very good entry. But it shows, among other things, how poorly that whole thing was dealt with. In any case, an important time for me, even if the entry isn't that great.

Five's good for now. I have a list of some 31 candidate entries, but those five I made special note of, so I'll put them up now and winnow later. Cheers
