mmmhmmm
dear me,
you are beautiful, funny, intelligent, and amongst other things, modest (haha). although, if you want to continue being all of those things, you've got to watch some of those pesky habits and vices you've got and use your brain a little more effectively. here's what you've got to do.
first off, you really need to start watching what you eat. next time you reach for something big and greasy, think about that bettie page figure you want and see if there's a salad available. and for the love of god, at least cut down on your soda/caffine intake. it's gross and you know it. start drinking more water. it's better for your skin anyway. and please quit smoking at some point. i know you love it, but your body fuckin' hates it.
now, let's talk about what spills out of your mouth. maintain your black sense of humour better. the most hilariously disturbing thing that's going on right now is in the government, and you've got better access to the media. find the least republican outlet and cling to it. that is all.
and what about the ole noggin? once again, keep up with current events, and not just for teh funneh. if there is a SOTU (abbreviation for state of the union, which unsurprisingly looks very similar to STFU), you will watch it, and really think about the implications of what that monkey is doing. furthermore, you will not only ponder it, you will at least try to do something about it. you also need to read more, and not just fiction either. at the time you are writing this letter, you have lots of money. use it wisely (even though i know you want shoes and makeup. that's ok just as long as you also buy some books). another thing - quit blowing class off! "because you feel like it" and "you're tired" are NOT valid excuses. you are not paying $12,000 a year to be a stupid fuck. finally, you should really try to get in touch with your spiritual side. i know it's buried under 19 years of cynicism, but it's there and you know it. find something that speaks to you and use it to elevate yourself.
today's daye is february 17, 2005. this is what you need to work on this month. i expect to see another letter from you by march 17th reporting your progress and giving yourself more goals to work towards. post this to your LJ as well, so everyone can get on your ass about it.
that's all for now. go to class, do well, and have fun. and remember, i love you, no matter what crazy shit you pull.

that said, what is the least republican media outlet? lol
