brownmenace asked: Thanks for writing that post about your semester. Honestly I think that struggling with academics isn't talked about enough on campus, like we are just suppose to know/do everything. And with all the other crap you should be proud that you survived the semester :D I'm so happy I finished my first semester without having a nervous breakdown.
Dear uterus,
Ow.

I'm going to have terrible grades this semester
But honestly, I don’t care. I’m proud of myself for not losing it and dropping out, because I thought about it pretty seriously on more than one occasion. People say that, but who really means it? I meant it. If it wasn’t for Jake, I probably would have just left one day without looking back.
I spent the majority of this semester dealing with chronic insomnia, serious self...
Watching Extreme Couponing in rage because after having spent two years as a cashier, this woman is everything I’ve ever hated about working in retail.
ABUSING CAPITALISM IS NOT A BASIC HUMAN RIGHT. STOP BEING SUCH A HUGE PAIN IN MY ASS.

I wish I lived in the internet
Because then I would always be able to communicate. I could take my time, construct my arguments, gather my thoughts. I could say powerful things, and I could say them authoritatively. I am intelligent and I am informed and I have a firm command of written language. If I lived in the internet, everyone would know me to be a girl who asserts herself confidently, completely, and eloquently. If I...

True life: My family has strange eating habits
Being the daughter of a musician and an artist is way less awesome than it sounds when there is nothing in the refrigerator besides soft drinks and condiments and nobody even thinks that its a weird thing to grill outside at 4am on a Tuesday.

I see you, geese on the pond. Why won’t you fly south? Don’t you want to be warm?
If they’re Canadian geese, aren’t they like…already south?
Renee: All I'm saying is that the masculinization of whiskey is socially constructed.
Jake: I'm going to drink my liquor and beat on my chest and you can't stop me. Whatever.
ACCEPTED!!!
SEE YOU IN ATHENS BITCHES
Obsessively refreshing my inbox instead of working on my finals because today is the day I’m supposed to find out if I was accepted into my Global Engagement Seminar or not.
Want to know so badly. Don’t care about anthropology.

My problem with Terra Nova
Is that the season finale was tonight and I laughed and cried and got a little drunk and pointed angrily at the television screen a lot.
I normally only watch shows that have already ended because I’m really bad at being at the same place at a certain time every week, and who wants to be limited by air dates when the internet is just waiting to be explored for illegal video hosting websites...

I spent lab time writing shitty poetry in the margins of my field notebook and now I can’t remember what any of these rocks look like.
