it is currently october 29th, 2004. physics can suck it. that's right... SUCK IT!!!!
really, why can't i get it? i end up just jumping around my room doing a weird type of "frustration bounce" (the next "lean back"?), convicted to the fact that electricity does not make sense. really, it's just magic, let's just leave it at that.
i'm also convicted to the fact that i was not meant to drink caffeine. it fucks me up in ways i can't even imagine. i'll just-be-going-on-and-on-about-that-one-spot-on-my-head-that-just-wont-stop-itching-speaking-of-itching-didnt-i-tell-you-that-i-dont-like-vanilla-ice-cream-anymore... and then i'll pass out. no work gets done, i can't concentrate, and i just spew random stuff at an faster pace than i normally do. at that rate, in no time, i would run out of random stuff to say. like this whole paragraph.

it is currently october 28th, 2004. i am halfway through first quarter of my second year. and after a year and an eighth, i have finally found a decent sized group of friends of both sexes (that's right, i found a group of guys who aren't jsut about getting laid... well they probably are, but they aren't looking at me for it). it makes me very happy, and i have a group of people lined up to share an apartment with next year. the downside is that i'm seriously lacking in the studying and sleeping department due to said expanded group of friends. that, and i think i'm starting to talk like a valley girl... like, totally. right, it disgusts me too.
i am currently reading my favorite sections from "naked" by david sedaris, and it's making me laugh even harder than it did the first time i read it. really, read a book by this man. you'll damage your kidneys from peeing in your pants so much from laughing so hard.

It was a rainy, cloudy day in College-ville.
All these Tuesdays are beginning to look the same. I spend the morning tired, soaking wet, and grumpy. Lunch perks me up enough so I can go interview someone for a story. I spend the afternoon curled up in bed, reading, and trying to be warm. Then, just when i'm about to go to class at 7 it starts to unmercifully pour and I am stuck, again, completely soaking wet from head to toe and late to wherever i'm going. Tonight I made the executive decision to ditch class and triathlon and see a 1960s artsy Italian film instead. But all that is behind me, because now i'm warm and I have a Spanish midterm tomorrow. I find it weird that i'm so utterly unconcerned about all these things that should be stressing me out.

un petit miserable
It was a cloudy day in High School-ville.
Not to exploit my pathetic state further for the sake of a post, but this ridiculous world of secondary schooling is getting a bit out of hand.
I've never seen an entire class of students (meaning the entire graduating class, including my English class) seem so completely worn down. It's funny because all the girls and the metro boys have started layering and whipping out their scarves, but it's not so funny because many of those little bundles of 85% acrylic, 15% wool are physically ill and mentally stressed--it's sad to witness and rather frightening when they come in droves through the hall.
There's a lot to do and I can't wait until November, when I will have 11 actual days of school to attend, a 28-page 2-section newspaper to publish, 4 days in Atlanta to party up, and a week of Thansgiving break during which I will decide the content of 85% of my applications!
(LES MIS OCT. 31 HUZZAH!)

Well I hate Blogger....
Bob Dylan sounds like so much fun! I wish I had known it was tonight cuz I can hear the concerts from Cox Arena in my room if I open the window. I figured it out when we saw the large amounts of old people leaving the concert at 10:30 tonight. I went shopping with my mom today and bought a pair of desperately needed jeans! (all of mine have holes in them) Then when I came home around 8:45 I was met by my drunk roommates watching Sex in the City. I was paiting my nails and someone mentioned the Hustler Store so we left immediately (I drove, of course). Well we ended up going to the Adult Superstore instead. It was really fun! We looked at all the dildos, vibrators, and "feels like a real mouth!"s. We saw edible underwear, furry handcuffs, counless varieties of condoms, lubes, and body oils, and these really fun stripper shoes! I enjoyed our adventure. :) I did feel kinda dirty after we left though. There were a lot of middle-aged men giving us these weird looks, kinda like "what are these beautiful teenage girls doing at a sex shop on friday night?" But we got home and played our game and it was a very... educational night.

It just occurred to me, friends, that I didn't actually say anything about the legend himself. Well, hey, go see him yourself if you want to know. Twas unlike any other concert i've been to, old and young alike mixing on the floor, people smoking in plain view, and this classic, unique sound pounding through the night. There was no opening band, there was no talking, just pure Bob Dylan and his band.
I remembered just now that a very special party was going on tonight and I was going to try to go after Dylan. One famous Freebirds' Horchata later, and I definately forgot.

Tonight I had the pleasure of watching Bobby D with Philly Cheese.
What?! I just thought i'd enlighten you all with the witty phrase on the door that I just came home to. I did see the legend Bob Dylan himself in concert, and I did go with my boyfriend (affectionately called "Philly Cheese" or "Motz" by my friends). Twas a very interesting night I must say, and an interesting day for that matter. Come to think of it, the morning was interesting as well. I'm all about straying from my routine and/or comfort zone these days. Today, come to think of it, was a perfect example.
Sorry i'm being ambiguous. I hate that. Mmmm, especially since I just had the conversation with my RA that i've been wanting to have. The one about my conservative roommates that I talked about, coincidentally, last week at this very time. Anyway. I feel enlightened. Maybe that'll make me feel warmer in my bed.

wow, i really haven't been to this website in a long time, and i apologize profusely. i've just been really busy. yes, my birthday was dry one,and consisted of 3 hrs of class, 2 hrs of bus riding, 3 hrs of volunteering, then finishing up a lab with my partner, and then studying for a spanish quiz. oh yeah, and then passing out. OMG! where'd my life go? i didn't even get to go mudsliding yesterday because i was studying. how lame am i? very.
okay onto other news... um, wait, there is no other news because SCHOOL HAS TAKEN OVER EVERYTHING!!! Run before it gets to you too!!!!
... Just kidding. it's getting pretty bad, but it's not THAT bad. my roommate had bronchitis and was home all weekend, as was my friend aneri, and my other friend amrita wasn't in a social mood. So i ended spending my weekend with boys, playing the "who'd you do?" game (edward norton or brad pitt? definately edward norton!) and poker.
okay, so really, that's it. again, sorry that none of it is very interesting, i promise i'll have stories of adventure and intrigue later. keep in mind that i'm really bad at keeping promises.

This flounder has found a sea.
I found my way to the English Department advisor on Friday and I declared myself an English Major once and for all. Then, in the same breath, I strode over to the education abroad office and tried to make some decisions about Spain next year. I think I have decided to go to el Universidad de Alcala which is just outside of Madrid, Spain. Now it's just a matter of finding a program I like. Things feel like they're shaping up, strangely enough. I have a direction to go in.
