(no subject)
I have a few things on my mind.
I'm done with my junior year of college. I just finished my last final, and it feels amazing.
I'm stage managing a show this summer. And taking a Harlem Rennaisance class. This means that I have about a year and a half until I graduate. Wow.
Now I have to vent about something. I love my friends. I value them for their intellectual prowess and undeniable charm. I don't waste time on losers. But I feel that lately I've been surrounding myself with people with which I have nothing in common.
I'm not normal. I know this. I'm guilty of dorkdom as much as anyone else. However, I can't help but notice a certain mode of thought lately that bothers me: superheroes. They have a place in culture, most certainly. But I think it's absolutely ri-fucking-diculous that people talk about them like they actually exist. Like you could run into them while walking down a busy street in LA and they'd have a chat with you about their latest mission to save the world. THEY AREN'T REAL. Gah!!!! And roleplaying...ok...I'm not going to say anything about that. I'm pretty sure everyone knows my stance on that topic.
I was highly insulted at lunch the other day. English is NOT a useless major. Neither is Theatre. And the two together are a pretty awesome combination. It's not acceptable to insult people like that. Especially when the insulter is a loser.
Humph.
