So I went to the mall in search of camisoles. I desperately needed some camisoles as the straps on several of mine broke and I tend to lie around and sleep in them. They are comfortable and it is miserably hot. Also, I have lost weight so my old camisoles are too big and did not hold things in quite the manner I desired ( Read more... )

In what many are describing as election-year politics of the worst sort, President Bush on Monday reiterated his support for a proposed federal constitutional amendment that would ban same-sex marriage forever, despite the measure's certain defeat in the U.S. Senate this week. "I call on the Congress to pass this amendment, send it to the states ( Read more... )

I have decided to divide this entry into two parts. The first part will be somewhat of a rant, as in a list of things going on in the world that happens to be pissing me the hell off. I will do this in a list form, feel free to agree or disagree.

I typed in the term "academic writing" to see ( Read more... )

I fell asleep for two hours... but I did not sleep well and I am up again, staring at my dim-lit beacon's screen as music echoes in the background. At first, I was not going to turn on my overhead light. I thought staring at the screen surrounded by darkness would be preferably, but my eyes already ache so that just seemed like an idiotic approach ( Read more... )

I'm very proud of the project that I have been working on lately. I hope that... well, I hope that perhaps one day I will be a published writer. I know that the dream is elusive... but I hope to make it ( Read more... )

Well, it has been a while since I updated. I guess I didn't realize how long it has been so I will briefly explain my absence from livejournal. Last week I moved into my new school and set up my closet-sized dorm room. By closet-sized, I mean literally, closet-sized. I'm lucky I have room for a bed and a desk. I also started classes yesterday. I'm ( Read more... )

College is quite the paradox. They claim to prepare you for the real world but honestly the usefulness of their material is debatable. However, I can see why so many colleges stand by their claim of the usefulness of general education in preparing students for real world. I mean aren’t all general education classes relevant to a person’s major and ( Read more... )
