Me, continued.
I have been so inspired by others that here I post.
I am ridiculously worried about the election. Hairs, I second you! I thought McCain was such a joke and then I started hearing all kinds of weird shit that shows me people are still so stupid or so scared or so racist or so feminazi that they would rather vote for a team with PALIN on it than one without Hilary! AGH! Where did common fucking sense go? I found myself really unproportionally upset about it one night when someone close was saying they liked McCain even though they weren't voting for him. It was so depressing, imagining he could win. Where would we be? I tried to volunteer for this election, but the people never called me back. You'd think they would want as much help as possible, but as Tobin says, these grassroots deals can be pretty disorganized.
Aside from that, I'm in my first semester at the university here.. and I'm loving it to death. The fact that people come here and blow off their opportunities jacking around amazes me - I couldn't possibly have enough time to do all the stuff I want to do. I just wish I'd been going there the last 2 or 3 years, now I'm on limited time. Alas, I will flourish. I've already been such a better student I ever was, my teachers like me, one even got me a job that's gonna be hella sweet (at the Biosphere II!). I get to learn how to drive a high occupancy vehicle - aka a huge ass van. That's gonna be hilarious. And I joined a club and have been making new friends (*pat on the head for the socially awkward cat*). So, all in all, things are crazy and fun and I sort of get that roller coaster feeling.
Unrelatedly, I've also been working on my sanity, which enlightens me to the fact that many more people should do this. We should all tear ourselves apart and throw away the shit, cause that stuff's contagious.
I want to start posting pictures, but I forgot how. Can someone tell me? I get to go watch HEROES now! woot!!
