so i feel like an update

after prolonging my 8 page paper (which turned out to be 9 1/2) all of my memorial day weekend, the burden is gone. its as if that was the final piece of my juinor year puzzle. the only work were going to get is for finals and regents. actually, i would like the final piece of this puzzle to be passing every regents in june. i dont want one regents on my plate in september, i'll have enough going on.

but yeah, my paper actually became interesting at 1 am this morning. i did not become interested in sherwood anderson whatsoever but it is pretty interesting how he got those influences into his work. good job man. i would like to find some more authors like him, maybe their literature is better and i'll enjoy reading it. the worst part is... the index cards actually worked.. as much as i hated them. gah.

whats next...

i have about 7 days of classes left, 9 days of finals, a few days off here and there and then ABSOLUTE FREEDOM. i want this to be over so bad.
destination:june 23rd

opening day is june 21, come one and all.

so i did this english regents essay in school today. it was complete crap and i hated it with like, every part of me. im not quite sure why we had to retake it, but im so happy i did it last year. anyway, it was supposably about how people strive to be content. contentment. i was surprised to read the passages and be like "whoa, a lot of people arent always at ease, or calm.. whats up with that" i was complaining to my brother about the essay too and he was telling me about all the people he meets at work who are constantly stressed or worried, they have guilt and nervousness amongst them. well, i can see how they would be stressed and worried, simply because they are either unemployed or have some intense problems. but the reason why seems to be because they cant sit down and breath and get themselves together. literally stop sweating the small stuff.

so im basically greatful for my calmness/balance. i think theyre hard to come by. i hope i have it forever, apparantly a mindset like mine is hard to come by.

i also need to get some summer clothing, i actually feel like shopping.
someone go with me.
i still want uggs too damnit

its been so beautiful out.

dear weather,
please stay like 75 degrees til school lets out, you know i love you more than school and i will lose focus.
thank you.

and i think my husband andrew mcmahon said it best when i quote
"And we hung like space stations and rocketships
And dreamed like we were things of the sky
We dressed like kings and queens and lovers
And shouted out into the night "we're never gonna die"
