(no subject)
I am officially going to be a graduate as of December. This makes me a very happy Hayley. I'm working two jobs as of right now, I'm starting my internship this coming week, I'm turning twenty, I'm taking four classes, I'm studying for the GRE which I am going to miserably fail most likely. I can't believe I'm studying for it. I can't believe I'm this on task. I can't believe that I am graduating. I'm going to be moving down south and Melissa and I are going to get an apartment together, if things go well. I'm applying for graduate school, but I'm really indifferent on whether or not I get in. I'm much more in the mood to take time off, work at a corporate slum hole, and live in a seedy nasty apartment. Is this what the romantic starving artist ideal has turned into for me? haha.
On another note, I fucking hate San Francisco. I have ranted about this before. I have a class on San Franciscan literature this quarter and the people are so hyped up on San Francisco and nothern California and hating Los Angeles and everything from Southern California. So far, this is what "progressive", "open-minded" people from northern california (who don't like to be lumped in with Southern California and consequently lump the entirety of southern california from San Diego, to Bakersfield, to Santa Barbara) think of southern california: we are all surfer idiots who just like to shop and party and spend mommy and daddy's money, we have no idea what diversity is (diversity for us is the number of shoe colors in a high end boutique), we are all racist, we are dirty, we are shallow, we have no culture, we have no art or music worth listening to, we all have great tans, none of us are open-minded or liberal or free thinking, and we all drive lexus' and bmws and have nothing to be proud about. So fuck you San Francisco. I've been to a lot of big cities and I have never heard of a city more puffed up on its own goddamn imagined importance.
