I'm definitely failing life. (erm, not because of the hair. Because I haven't started my pile of homework that's due tomorrow and because Christmas presents remain incomplete.)

Why did I just use the word "definitely" ( Read more... )

Aaaaah!  I'm trying to write this freaking essay and it's really hard.  Too many disconnected ideas.  Nothing is linear.  Why did we pick the longest poem?

an exerpt:

it was me with serpentine hair
that with a timeless stare
turned mortal fear into stone time capsules
they still exist as the walking dead
as i do:  the original suffer-head
symbol of life

Ever since I read the email about Rayner's party I've had this weird feeling about it, like I shouldn't go because if I do something bad will happen.  Or really I think I just won't end up saying anything of value and feeling clumsy and boring.  I went to Mocambo tonight.  Ms. Roberts ( Read more... )

I've figured it out!  The answer to my problems!  The secret of life!

I hosted a History study group tonight with Nadine and Crystal.  I was motivated to learn because there were other people to keep me on track and to keep things interesting, and sitting around with great people eating cookies and discussing the inter-war period (as ( Read more... )

Beneath the cut is a rather fickle account of Alison feeling dejected and moody, but in the end she pulls through.

( WARNING: extreme angst )

Everyone!  There has been a breakthrough!  Tonight, on this 26th day of October, in the year 2005, I, Alison, have completed a homework assignment.  What is unusual about his?  It is not due until tomorrow.

Something that's really bothering me: I keep on swearing in my head!  ALL THE TIME.  Just a second ago I clicked on 'add friend' instead of 'update journal', and in my head I went "Shit fuck!".  What is wrong with me?!  I think I have anger problems or something.  Whenever someone does something slightly annoying, in my head I'll go "Fuck you!".  ( Read more... )

Guess what?  I have a lump of cartilage in my wrist that's not supposed to be there!  I have an official mutation.  And it causes my wrist to not bend...fun stuff, eh?  Apparently the best way to fix it is to have a "simple surgery" and cut out the lump.  I must say I am somewhat opposed to someone slicing open my wrist....but we'll see.  I also ( Read more... )
