I'm saying goodbye to free time due to my 18 credit schedule with two literature classes and all of my other classes being reading (and writing) intensive.
I'm fortunate enough to have a girlfriend with just as much work, who likes to spend a portion of our hang out time doing readings.
Melissa was dog sitting for a (family) friend this weekend, who lives in a penthouse on Washington Place. I felt luxurious and was able to get Red Bamboo delivered! |

When I visited my parents house for the holidays my mother asked me how I did this semester. I believe my response was shitty. I just received my last grade. GPA was a 3.15. Should have been higher, but I'll take that as a shit semester. I don't like to make excuses, but I, as well as every other student, hate horrible professors. |

Sometimes I can feel my own personal growth.
On a side note I feel so distant from everything when I'm on long island.
I feel weird not having school work right now. I feel guilty for not having school work. I haven't had a break from school in a year and it feels weird. I've been doing a lot of reading though on the break so far.
I'm off to read some more Nabokov. |

She answered back by making me a mix of British artists.

Thoughts on long island after being absent for six months.
-Long island is incredibly ugly. I've taken the train so many times, but I never noticed how ugly and run down the houses along the railroad tracks are. Filled with garbage, run down pools, and broken cars all over the lawns/backyards. A public housing complex looks a lot prettier.
I felt really uncomfortable by the amount of:
-Caucasians
-Close minds
-Obesity
-SUVs
-Uggs with sweatpants
-Racism
-Bros
-Bras (girl equivalent of a bro)
I told my parents to move upstate, but they're not going for it.
I was also upset to not drink any of this:
That Whole Foods where Sports Plus was needs to open. |

Fifty million turkeys are killed for Thanksgiving.
We express our gratefulness and thankfulness on this day,
but hide the fact that this is a holocaust.
We live in a wonderful world. |

I'm changing one of my two majors. Elementary Education is getting the sneaker and Media Studies is getting shoe'd in. I'm hoping to graduate fall 2009 as oppose to Spring 2010 with Elementary Education.

It's funny how people are saying the results of the election is a step forward. With the results of proposition eight, I'd say we're right back where we started. |
