First Batch, Done

• Thursday, June 30th, 2005 • 1 Comment

So I finished my first session of the summer semester with A’s in both of my classes. That’s good, I guess. It’s funny, I didn’t even feel like I tried. But, on the other hand, I didn’t feel like I didn’t try, so that’s kind of cool. I didn’t overextend myself and I didn’t give [...]


Hello, I Love You

I’m alive. I did finally see Batman Begins. In short, it rocked. I also watched Hitch over the course of the last two days, and that was really good as well. I’ve listened to a fair chunk of new music. I’m really tired though, so I’ll review it… sometime. The list keeps getting longer. I [...]


Bitchy Pissed Off Rant

I’ve got this friend, I’ve known him a long time. (18 years?) He’s always been… unreliable. You make plans, he usually falls through. Since being back in Whittier, he’s pretty much the only person I have to hang out with, etc.

When Batman Begins came out, I really wanted to go see it, and figured he’d [...]


Drained

My eyelids are getting very droopy. That’s usually the signal that it’s a good time to pour out my thoughts into this wonderous gutter of mine.

Or something.

I just got home from a “party” about forty minutes ago. I put the word party in quote marks because even though it was a party, I wouldn’t consider [...]


A Complicated Annoyance

There’s this older woman who is in my math class at school. Usually we sit at the same table in the hour before the class and work on homework and talk about shit. (She gets off work a while before class and just shows up, I have an hour between classes.) Lately, though, she’s been [...]


“Hello! OMG NO! MY TONGUE!”

A 73-year-old Kenyan grandfather reached into the mouth of an attacking leopard and tore out its tongue to kill it, authorities said Wednesday.


(Untitled Due To Lack of Thought)

• Wednesday, June 22nd, 2005 • 3 Comments

I’m tired. I keep staying up until I’m absolutely exhausted even though there isn’t anything to do. I don’t know why. I don’t feel as good during the day as I do if I just go to sleep at two and wake up at ten, so I’m not sure what my mind is trying to [...]


An Imaginative Apology

• Monday, June 20th, 2005 • No Comments

Her happiness stinks up the room. She’s been in here for a few months, pacing wall to wall, and I’ve always been happy to see her around until now. For a long time, the sight of her brought joy to me, and I’d often spend long stretches of time just sitting back and watching her [...]
