1. i think a near-death experience would do me some good. especially the one where you're dead for a couple minutes and you hover over your own body. it would probably (very paradoxically) kick some life into me. you know, erase all my doubts and make me appreciate the smaller aspects of life. man, i would be fuh-reakin invincible. not that i will ( Read more... )

i loathe essay prompts that come with scholarship applications. they're always ridiculously vague and lack any direction whatsoever. here's the one im doing right now: "How has your love of learning affected your course of study and your future professional and personal life?" WHAT DA FUCK

i bought this used stats book, and a page was torn out. unfortunately i needed it for my first homework. I couldnt exchange it at the bookstore because they didnt have another used copy. and i couldnt borrow a classmates book cause i was forced to miss class last week.

i also have a xanga cause all my high school friends are on it. and about a year ago some girl from Texas befriended (or in LJ terms, "added") me because I listened to Ryan Adams. around the time Bush got reelected i found out she was xxhardxcorexx rightwing and religious. and she read that i was liberal. she actually un-friended me because of it.

The semester has come to an end and I am relatively content. The thing is, I really dug myself into a hole at the beginning of the semester. My grades lagged because I was being absent-minded, lazy, and was suffering from major writersblock. It was especially bad in my English class. It should have been an easy one because my professor didnt grade ( Read more... )

1. Thanksgiving was kinda whatever. Im a bit disappointed that i didnt eat much. We had tons of food at my grandma's house (2 turkeys!). But i sat at the kiddies table (which i wanted) and was reluctant to get food from the grown-up table because whenever they saw me it was "How are you doing in school," "Will SC get the national title again?" "Are ( Read more... )

Several points to discuss...

1. I can't stay healthy for long. Yesterday in my English class I sat next to a guy who is sick. Today in my history class I sat next to a girl who is sick. And worst of all, Im living next to a guy who is also sick. A nasty virus has invaded my roommate and now he is coughing all over the place. It will be a miracle if ( Read more... )
