Coffee or Cocoa?
I can't decide if the coffee I ordered is really coffee or not. It tastes like hot chocolate to me. I even had someone taste test it for me and they agreed. But the thing is I do feel more awake. So is it coffee or not? Important question of the day.
I had such a FUN weekend! Ashley, Dominic, Jordan, Helen and I left for Dominic's home late Friday afternoon which is in Independence(Freedom as I like to call it) Lousiana. Friday night we met Dom's friends and then went to a party. We didn't stay long, everyone was a little too insane for us. We just wanted to chill and hang out and there were these high school kids running around and screaming, so we left. We slept sooo much that night and sleep makes me happy. We cooked pretty much all day long and watched Jumangi on TV. We left for Baton Rouge at about 5 and headed out for the Against Me concert. There were three opening bands, I didn't really like the first two, but the Epoxies were pretty cool. When Against Me came on it was pretty crazy. I had to escape for a little bit because I got caustraphobic and the moshing people slamming into me was getting a little too much. I didn't even think a lot of that music you would want to mosh too, but whatev? Came back a song later. We danced sooo much and they played amazing! Ashley and Dominic were pretty much on stage. It was a really small venue, but that sometimes makes it even more fun. Even all the way in Baton Rouge, there were still SHC people, well technically Loyola. Sunday was Dominic's grandfather's 80th birthday, yay for old people! There was tons of food, and we ate a lot. I think I probably gained 5 lbs. just in this weekend. Once you get away from the caf. you just can't stop eating. We all got back last night at about 10. There were so many funny moments from this weekend. I'll be posting some pics on myspace and facebook sometime soon.
This week seems like it won't be too bad. I may be going to the SOA protest this coming weekend. A part of me wants to have a weekend where I don't really do much of anything. But I really wanted to go to SOA, so we'll see.
I met a really attractive, funny, smart guy the other day. I am intrigued. I am planning on pursueing this more, too bad I barely ever see this person. I will keep things posted if this goes anywhere.
This is some stanzas of a poem I wrote last week(not really good at all, mainly thoughts in my head scrammbled together):
Beauty all around,
Yet no one sees.
Blinded,
Pain and destruction all around.
No one opening their eyes wide.
No one standing up.
Inside my mind,
Searching for a solution.
With these hands,
Can I make a difference?
Putting a band-aid
on a flesh wound.
Not ever healing the core.
Is it our humanity?
Our ability to take advantage,
cut those corners,
make those mistakes.
Corrupt our minds to justify our faults,
And continue on being a user.
We have all this knowledge,
but no action.
All this potential left wasted.
All this hatred.
All this ignorance.
Examine your hearts,
your minds,
and justify who you are.
Standing aside,
Watching as things fall apart.
Afraid to help,
for fear of what we will lose.
Selfish.
Educate our minds.
Show us the light,
Give us the answers.
Before it is too late.
