I'm scared I've been in school way to long and this is going to turn out to be some giant joke because I'll never be able to get a real job because I've never been able to take my job that seriously.

But if I'm able to get a really cushy job doing reference for old people it will have all been worth it.

I'm sitting here, doing something I have never done: Writing a love letter. No, it's not because absolutely stark mad, but this is exceptionally beside my nature. I think it may have something to do with you. You see, firstly, I was going to get you a card. It had a squerrel on it, a very cute squirrel. The squirrel was holding a nut, and it said ( Read more... )

I'm really not one for inner turmoil. I thought Frodo was brave for holding on to that nasty ring, I appreciated star wars for it's archetypes, but I never want to have to face myself or my demons in order to come out victorious over anything. I'm a happy little hippie relativist with all my coconuts in a row. So this whole trying to defeat the ( Read more... )

It is basically taking every once of my mental strength not to break down and buy a pack of cigarettes right fucking now. Anyone who says the only reason people who smoke don't quit is because they are weak willed and impulsive, it'd like to give them a nice swift kick in the nuts. fucking bullshit. You know what, I don't want to give them a kick ( Read more... )

am desperately scared that Edward will never come back. I haven't been this weepy since high school. I think this is one of those books that hooks you at the first page and drags you kicking and screaming through it like some sort of over-dramatized death march with promises of cake. The first fifty pages were like every guy who ever broke my heart ( Read more... )

Just got done with my Organizational Environment assignment. Not only was it my first piece of critical thinking put to writing in my grad school career, it is my first piece of serious academic thought in prose since I quit smoking. I have no idea where  par is different for a first year grad vs. a 4th year undergrad. I wish I had someone to ask ( Read more... )

So, I went vegan about a week and a half ago. Put away your pitchforks, or more likely stop yawning and edging for the door. I'm making a conscious effort not to be a self-righteous  hippy, and I still eat honey, because you still need some fun in your life. Corey is being awesome about it per usual, though I still think a part of him is going "wtf ( Read more... )

I believe I have slumped into an antisocial funk.  School, love, work and my own negligence have caused me to neglect a lot of people that I really enjoyed spending time with. But I'm making no more excuses ( Read more... )

Quit smoking finally. can't stop eating, or having a slower metabolism (turns out smoking makes you slightly hypoglycemic, heavy smokers burn up to 200 extra calories per day). I've been running every other day. I've gotten the color back in my face and I'm only chewing about 4 pieces of 4mg nicorette per day. Still coughing up brown shit, which ( Read more... )
