FUNdraising party
Bring $4 (or more to show love)

*PUDDING WRESTLING
*awesome partyness!!!
*jungle theme!! rarr (no. seriously. i went to elegance and got a leopard print shirt. yessssss)



YOU MUST COME!!! IT IS GOING TO BE AWESOME!!!

it's official

alejandro is going to be president, and appoint me chairwoman of the federal reserve. in this way, we'll be in a fascist regime, but it'll look like democracy still. alej and i will be cronies, and matias might be a crony, too, if we let him into our crony club. I'm still not certain of the crony-ful things we'll do, because i don't want to embezzle. but i WILL be the hottest 60 year old chairwoman of the federal reserve. and i'll be awesome. i'm also going to adopt two children from canada.


"did you know, matias is adopted."
"alejandro, you're twins!"
"yeah well... we were... separated at birth... my mom abandoned him and kept me. she abandoned the curly haired one!"

"Harlem" (Langston Hughes)

What happens to a dream deffered?

Does it dry up
like a raisin in the sun?
Or fester like a sore--
And then run?
Does it stink like rotten meat?
Or crust and sugar over--
like a syrupy sweet?

Maybe it just sags
like a heavy load.

Or does it explode?

the wife of noble character

what are you going to major in? i don't know. there are so many things out there! i don't even know what i like!

what are you going to do with your life? i don't know. shouldn't i choose a major first? or shouldn't i know what i want to do before i choose a major? or shouldn't i be at the place in my life now where i have at least a vague idea of where i'm going.

what are you going to wear tomorrow? i don't know. i did laundry last night, so my options are many.

what are you going to say to people when they ask you about yourself? i don't know. that their guess is as good as mine?

i don't think many people can relate to this right now. i've been thinking a lot about... you know... God. and about identity. namely identity in god. i feel like i'm at the part right now where i've acknowledged that i need to give god myself... and haven't i? but he hasn't given me anything back. he hasn't said, "here let me give you the self i intended for you, the self that will make you happiest. i've mended the dirty shabby old self you gave me, now i have back for you a new clean shiny self. try it on, i know it fits." no. right now i'm left pretty much naked out here, wondering what to do with my life. because i don't want to take it back from god- but shouldn't be be returning it soon? some dry cleaners have 3 hour service.

#5: are we friends on facebook?

"Prince of Darkness" (Indigo Girls)

this is somewhat how i feel about los angeles:

My place is of the sun and this place is of the dark
I do not feel the romance
I do not catch the spark
My place is of the sun and this place is of the dark
I do not feel the romance

I do not catch the spark

I don't know when I noticed life was life at my expense
The words of my heart lined up like prisoners on a fence
The dreams came in like needy children tugging at my sleeve
I said I have no way of feeding you, so leave

But there was a time I asked my father for a dollar
And he gave it a ten dollar raise
When I needed my mother and I called her
She stayed with me for days

And now someone's on the telephone, desperate in his pain
Someone's on the bathroom floor doing her cocaine
Someone's got his finger on the button in some room
No one can convince me we aren't gluttons for our doom

But I tried to make this place my place
I asked for Providence to smile upon me with his sweet face
But I'll tell you

My place is of the sun and this place is of the dark
I do not feel the romance
I do not catch the spark
My place is of the sun and this place is of the dark
By grace, my sight grows stronger and I will not
be a pawn for the Prince of Darkness any longer

Maybe there's no haven in this world for tender age
My heart beat like the wings of wild birds in a cage
My greatest hope my greatest cause to grieve
And my heart flew from its cage and it bled upon my sleeve
The cries of passion were like wounds that needed healing
I couldn't hear them for the thunder
I was half the naked distance between hell and heaven's ceiling
And he almost pulled me under

Now someone's on the telephone desperate in his pain
Someone's on the bathroom floor doing her cocaine
Someone's got his finger on the button in some room
No one can convince me we aren't gluttons for our doom

I tried to make this place my place
I asked for Providence to smile upon me with his sweet face
But I'll tell you

My place is of the sun and this place is of the dark
I do not feel the romance
I do not catch of spark
My place is of the sun and this place is of the dark
By grace my sight grows stronger, grows stronger
I do not feel the romance
I do not catch the spark
And I will not be a pawn for the Prince of Darkness any longer


... and if you didn't catch that last one: #4: are you in any of my classes this semester?

international espionage

REDWOOD CAMP WAS SO MUCH FUN! too much to write about now. maybe later. or not.

alright- i'm loving my guessing game! some guy at usc, whom i hopefully know, reads this blog... hmmm....

#3: are you on the frisbee team?


And for one desperate moment there
He crept back in her memories
God it's so painful
Something that is so close
And still so far out of reach

ADD and not afraid to use it!

there was a job fair today on trousdale. holy cow. some day i'll have to get a job that is NOT being a camp counselor. hmmm... quite a thought there. did i tell you? I want to work at a bank in dublin, ireland. i saw this bank comercial that was like, "we are so nice we help finance low-income housing!" john was like, "propaganda!" but it worked on me. i want to work at a bank and help finance low-income housing. work with PEOPLE. and their money, apparently.



chick on chick was fun. i sucked at handling, don't want to talk about it.



the "random person" who responded to my "who reads this blog" question- i figured out who it is. it's my mom. take that! i remembered because she does her '...' like '. . .' wtf is up with that... oh well. it's her mark.



the only thing getting me through is the prospect of going home tomorrow and seeing my family and joe. no lie. somebody please inject 10 more hours into tonight, then maybe i'll get sleep.



i think somewhere in these random remarks i had something funny. oh. yes! What did the fish say when he ran into a wall?


dam.

SEX!

now that i have your attention, I can proceed...

i'm in a leavey learning room right now, learning about how to access databases for a research paper for one of my classes. it's my modern masculinities class (disguised as a writing class). We're thinking of keywords... masculinity, male, gender. and this one guy is consistently like, "sex?" yes, horny kid, we can type in "sex" and press search. yes, horny kid, the librarian will type it and it'll appear on the big screen. yes.

he's actually a really nice guy, I saw him last night at the library at like 2 am. But during the day... horror! oh well. half the people are playing tetris now... screw you databases. databasi, if you will?

oh, and
CHICK ON CHICK TOMORROW! 7-9 ON MCALISTER!
