i've had a smashingly good weekend. friday went and saw the play with my friends. everyone did a fantastic job. the acting was superb. afterwards, watched "fight club" with the wife and sheep. oh the goodness that is fight club and chuck and edward norton/brad pitt. ::girlie sigh:: anyway, saturday represented the art department at the perspective social thing. got to talk about the wonders of the art department at salem. stole two yellow roses from the arrangement, though dee dee said i couldn't, went to lunch. then went with courtney and sheepie to see kucinich. he was fabulous. sad though he shall not be in the running for president. he would make a wonderful president. didn't go to work on saturday either, which was nice. that night, got tipsy-drunk with my homegirls, proceeded to bust out with my rendition of walt whitman's "a noiseless patient spider." then went and white-girl danced with my friends at the pajama jam. i wore my white wifebeater, plaid boxers, and white socks. ellen said i looked like such a dyke. yay for that.
today has been wasted. got up at 1:30pm and haven't accomplished a thing really. lounged in bed till 2:30, took my shower, emailed some people, then went and visited paula for a bit. went to dinner, talked to paula for a time. talked to my mommy. visited chuckles, went over the spanish skit. francesa prostituta! hehe. oh and chuckles did my two year plan, since schedules come out tomorrow. i am dropping my english major to a minor to pick up a studio art minor. so, yay for that. i am a bit nervous about dropping the major, but studio art is very important to me. so. yeah, it overrides english. take that. though i still heart creative writing and poetry, i am meant to write creatively not necessarily analyze.
though this day has not been productive, the weekend was fabulous, thanks to good friends and such. i hope the happy times last a bit. off to try and schedule some productive moments this week. we'll see how that goes. |

Pisces Drinking style: If you're a Pisces, you've probably already heard that you share a sign -- and an addictive personality -- with Liz Taylor, Liza Minelli and Kurt Cobain. Not only do Pisces like to lose themselves in the dreamy, out-there feeling that only hooch can give, but they build up a mighty tolerance fast. Who needs an expensive date like that? On the other hand, theyre fabulously enchanting partners, whether in conversation or in crime. With the right Pisces, you can start out sharing a pitcher of margaritas and wind up in bed together for days. The phrase "addictive personality" can be read two ways, you know.

lots to do today. started the research for my jan term project, but i have lots more research to do before i can even attempt to start writing my damn 5-7 page paper on picasso and how and why he abstracts the human figure. i've already got some good quotes though, and it's only one book that i've taken notes from, so that's good. i plan to have the research and paper for picasso done by next week so i can start researching dali, then paula modersohn-becker, which may prove to be a problem since she is a lesser known artist.
anyway. also, i need to make some phone calls, so i can go see the doctor. got a referral, so that's half the battle.
going to the library later on today, how i heart the library. i swear if my whole career as a art historian or artist/author doesn't happen i could always go into the business of library spinster. just get myself a rocking chair and a house brimming with cats, a couple of shawls and i'll be set. instant spinster. i'll be the crazy and bitter librarian reigning with an iron fist, shushing people with great fervency. haha. maybe i need more sleep. oh well.
encountered a very interesting person last week at work. crazy as all get out. claimed to be the reincarnated soul of st. john the baptist. and he said the apocalypse will happen in october 2271--mark your calendars ladies! also, he will be there to act as gabriel the angel of death, one of the four horsemen of the apocalypse. talk about delusions of grandeur. schitzo. but, who am i to judge crazy?
last week was just filled with god. watched the movie "the order"--a fantastic movie which i highly recommend--about a priest investigating the death of his mentor. then the crazy john the baptist guy. maybe it's a sign.
finished reading chuck palahniuk's "diary: a novel." fantastic book, as are all of chuck's novels. i heart him muchly. going to have to find another book to read. i normally get to read while i'm waiting around at work, so i've been devouring novels like nothing.
anyway. going to go shower. hope everyone is having eventful jan terms. |

I feel like dancing and singing and kissing total strangers. At least, I did feel that way, now I'm a bit drowsy. I'm at work, waiting for something to do. I want to go home and sleep. I hate work. Whoever came up with the silly idea of work needs to be shot. Damn manic obsessive-compulsives had to ruin it for the rest of us. I am content with doing nothing, as long as I am enjoying it. I came to the conclusion that I would be perfectly and utterly happy never working, just sitting around and doing what I want to do---painting, knitting, writing, singing along to great music. ::Sigh:: I feel nostalgic. I feel like being all wistful and dreamy. I flutter between wanting to go to sleep forever and singing happy songs. Perhaps I'm delusional or delerious. Is that how you spell it delerious? Looks strange. And me a damned English major. Ha.
I wish I were a child again. I miss being young. I miss the innocence and imagination. I miss being able to control my life, my existence, my little world. I could be anyone I wanted to be, love anyone I wanted to love, and they'd love me too. I wish I could live out my little delusions and fantasies. Sometimes, those are all that I have.
I watched "Igby Goes Down" the other night. Fantastic movie. I enjoyed it and recommend it. I connected to the movie, I love Kieran Culkin. I heart independent movies, the off-beat, the seedy.
I am reminded of "Secretary" as I sit here. Yes, children, I have another movie to obsess over. "Fight Club" is still number one, but "Secretary" is a close second. I love the characters in that movie. Wish they were real. Wish I could find someone to connect to like Leigh found in her mister. ::sigh:: It's so dreamy in a perverse sort of way. I guess deep down inside, I am a hopeless romantic and a sucker for a good romance, as long as it strays from the norm.
One of my friends once asked me what I wanted in a lover or significant other. And I said: intelligence, loving, and they had to love me like I loved them. She asked if that were it. I elaborated a bit: a sense of humor, attractive, caring. But my ideas were shapeless, formless. No real substance. I suppose I don't know exactly what or who I want. I sometimes think, could I be with them? No, I seem to reply often. With my criteria as short as it is, you wouldn't think me so damn picky. But, I am. |

Well, I am home. It's good to be here, but at the same time, I think I wish I were back at Salem. I miss being alone. I'm such a private person, and when I am home I cannot be one. But oh well. Haven't done much of anything. Got my Christmas shopping done, lounged around the house, baked cookies. I'll be working Sundays and Mondays with my grandfather while I'm home. Not too thrilled about working, but, at least it'll be nice to have some money. I'm excited for Christmas to get here. I want to set goals for myself. My New Year's resolution? My grandmother said I should set goals for myself and try to meet them in a timely fashion, that it'll help with my sadness and such. Right now my brains feel like jelly, I'm rambling. Slept a lot today, perhaps too much. Oh well. The goal is to be happier, try to actually get some work done (i.e. clean my room thoroughly and begin working on my jan-term independent study) and to also see a psychiatrist before I leave home. I've been saying that I want to see a psychiatrist for a while now, but maybe being home and having my grandmother and aunt help push me to see one will help. I think I will probably watch some tv and wrap gifts sometime tonight. I have the house to myself. It's nice to be alone sometimes. I've found I think I actually enjoy the alone time, I suppose most people like alone time, only I've found more and more I enjoy being by myself more than being around people. But, I suppose it's when I want to be around people and cannot be or cannot find people to connect to that saddens me. Anyway, I am going to wander now. |

only one more exam to go...i think i did well on my other 4. anyway, i am in a i-don't-wanna-study sort of mood. ::sigh:: but i must. meehan's exam is the last of them and i haven't studied nor read the plays one bit. oops. oh well. i am not really stressed. i have a lot to do and i don't wanna. this semester is almost over and i survived. hopefully my grades will be good enough too. i go home soon. i'm anxious, but at the same time...i don't know. i'm hoping to get some things accomplished. i shall cross my fingers. |

this week has been pretty productive, though i still have tons more to do. we had the dorm clean-up fundraiser for open up and made a substantial amount of coinage. so, i'm very proud of el presidente for at least trying. last night i got a break from cleaning other peoples' rooms, and instead decided to clean my own, since i had been neglecting it for some time. i swept, dusted, and cleaned out the sink. my next task before tuesday is to do the dishes and some laundry. ::sigh:: so much to do! including two papers due monday---a 3-4 page paper for religion and a 5-7 page paper for english. they shouldn't be too difficult but it's the fact that i have to spend some tedious amount of time doing them! grr... on a happier note, i am getting some of my christmas shopping done, which is good. though i still have a few members of my family yet to do. sadness. i need my work study check...damn december 10th! |
