To dream...the impossible dream...
I got an A- in Music Theory, Form and Analysis!
I know it's a minus, but...it's my first A in Theory- ever! YAY. I totally called my dad at his work to tell him.
He said we can celebrate tomorrow, when I go home.
SO HAPPY. Nothing can get me down now, not even having to clean and pack. -
Still slogging my way...
...through The Feminine Mystique. It's not really drudgery, it's more like every chapter I read makes me so angry that I have to take a long break before reading another.
I have a bone to pick with the fashion and beauty industries. Stop referring to women who look like sticks as having the "perfect" body. It is not the "all around, everyone ( Read more... ) -

I cannot begin to describe the anger I feel everytime I look at the name on a President's letter from Randolph College. What's the matter, couldn't find any women who wanted to be associated with the school?
...
I still say they go under in ten years or less. -
On high school.
It has occured to me, while consuming massive amounts of Harry Potter fanfiction over the last three weeks, that I once knew a Draco Malfoy.
His name was Rane, because I was living in Alabama at the time, a place where all children who are born into wealth and privilage are given either Biblical or ridiculously overthought, fashionable monikers ( Read more... ) -
