This is wicked pissah!
I knew it wouldn't take long for me to revert back to my old ways. I'm supposed to be writing a Sociology paper right now, but my main problem is that....I don't want to. At least I attempted to start at 5 instead of 10. But I found this, and I knew that I totally had to share it with the world, or at least the readers of my oh-so-stimulating LJ. After going to school somewhere completely opposite, like, oh say, New York you realize more than ever how true all of this stuff is...and I LOVE IT! So for all my friends at Caz who made fun of me...this is for you.
