... desire ...
Lacan and desire.
"Lacan's notion of desire is, at its heart, a desire for wholeness--a "hole in the self" that the subject attempts to close through an endless, metonymic chain of supplements: the perfect car, the perfect boyfriend, a tenure track job, etc. But as soon as one supplement is acquired, desire moves onto something else. Desire is a (representational) itch that can never truly be scratched."
fucking a.
i desire comfort. i long for something to make me complete.. why can't i feel complete on my own? --i desire someone to love all my imperfections even though i can't even accept them myself. i don't like being this lonely.
i think i secretly bought my new aquarium and all the fish in it hoping it will fill a void that left when andrew did.. and of course it didn't. i need something more.. i desire something more.. all i know is if andrew and i were back together, i wouldn't have anything else to desire.
i miss my friends back home.. i miss katie and julie.. things are so different from last semester. i feel like i have no friends.. and i do.. i just.. i dunno.
