sight & sound
The week before I moved, I got myself an eye appointment at the place in HP that I've gone to since I was a kid. It had been over two years since I had been in, and sure enough, my prescription had changed. My eyes just keep getting worse, oy.

a nameless face to think I see, to sit and watch the waves with me 'til they're gone
I know it's just a silly commercialized holiday.
But it hurts anyway.
I'm just so damn tired of the loneliness of never having had a boyfriend to be able to share a special day like this with, to share ANY special day with.
There's really nothing else to say. It just hurts. -
oh my god, whatever, etc
Notable Quotable: I present you with this week's reigning *facepalm* quote from my Composition class this afternoon.
When the professor told us to take turns introducing ourselves to the class, asking us to include a mention of what kind of relationship we have with reading and writing, there was one student who said the following:
