So Ruth officially sucks for giving me the letter "O"... this is gonna be hard. But I still want to hang out with you!
"Comment on this entry and I will give you a letter. Write ten words beginning with that letter in your journal, including an explanation of what the word means to you and why, and then pass out letters to those who want to play along."
1- "Orgasm": Sorry, my brain is just dirty like that. Plus I really miss Sam. Like really really. Our anniversary is tomorrow, and I'm not there! So sad.
2- "Ornery": How I feel right now with this yucky headache I've had for two days. Blech
3- "Ohm... Ohm...": Something I usually equate with yoga, but right now I'm choosing to have it represent my search for inner peace, or enlightenment, or non-depression, whatever you want to call it. I've been struggling with that a lot over this little sabbatical, but I'm way closer than I've been in a long time.
4- "Olivia": One of my favorite names. 3 of my Barbies were named Olivia.
5- "Outcast": How I've felt for most of my life. Which is silly because I have wonderful friends and lots of them, but I'm discovering that that isn't the same as feeling accepted. True acceptance comes from within, which could take awhile. But once again, I'm working on it.
6- "Old": I am so grown up! I have an apartment, I'm unemployed still (see next word), and I've been dating the same boy for a WHOLE YEAR (it's a big deal, ok?). I'm freakin 20... almost 21... it feels so adult.
7- "Oy": A phrase I've been uttering way too much lately, usually when describing how I feel about job hunting. It blows.
8- "One": The loneliest number. Also: how many rooms are in my new apartment, how many clean pairs of pants i have, how many of my parents i get along with, how many friends i talk to that aren't from/at whitman, how many new peircings i have (see next entry).
9- "OW!!": I have a new piercing! It's nothing too exciting, just a little loop on my upper ear cartilidge, but I likes it. See facebook for a pic soon. Also, I really really want a tattoo. But Jenny says I can't for a year. And since I will be eternally cowed by the senior diva bitches, I guess I have to wait a year.
10- "Optimism": Something I have always had in abundance, which is "odd", cuz it's very weird to be optimistically depressed. I guess I'm living proof that it's possible. But there are so many things that I'm looking forward too, and so many things that I have left to do, that I refuse to let this depression control me. I can't go too far just yet, but I'm on the right path, and that's all that matters.
if you reply to this, I will be kind and give you much easier letters.. like "L". L would have been easy. Silly Ruth. Ok, off to do something or other, love to all
