"Do not be afraid of love. Without it life is like a broken poem."
Hmm, I'm not to sure how I feel about that. It is 10:55 pm on a Monday night and what should I be doing? catching up on previous Calc homework so I only have to worry about reviewing the concepts for the final. The real question is, what am I doing? Well, I'm updating my LJ so I can avoid Calc and pleasure reading; the quote above is taken from Jeannette Winterson's "Written on the body" it's been a while since I read one of her books, actually just a year ago I read "Oranges are not the only fruit", which was pretty good and funny. So yeah, do not be afraid of love, afraid I'm not, terrified? that sounds more like it! I don't know what I have against attachment it's really starting to scare me. I mean, to have problems with commitment is normal, but sometimes when I feel I'm even getting too attached to my friends I start to back away. Also, recently my brother and I have been spending a lot of time together; granted, it's been fun and I've enjoyed most of it, but I'm really starting to feel awkward. I guess I just back out like a wuss when things start to get good, that way I don't suffer when it has to end. So, summer's coming up and I'm actually pretty excited. The only reason I'm a bit scared is because of the classes I'm taking, I really hope to do good. The other day I was thinking of how awesome being a food critic would be. I was listening to npr radio and every thursday/ tuesday they have a show around 1pm-ish about food; they were interviewing this lady that's starting as a food critic and wrote a book "Fly on the wall" or so I think it's called. Anyway, she started telling her stories of all the states she's visited, foods she's tried and how if you want to get good service in a restaurant just act like a food critic and you're set to have the best dining experience ever haha. These people are so cultured and have a language of their own, in a similar way art historians do (which is another subject I looove) They can describe a good Tarragon Chicken in Wine Cream in 500 ways. Damn it, I want to be cultured like that, which why as soon as I turn 21 I'm taking that wine course (that can be a start). So yet another entry of me talking crap, oh well, submit!
