So I'm in my second year microeconomics class this morning, and my prof is telling us that not only was last semester's class average at 48%, but also that one-fifth of the class got an F, and most of them are retaking it this year. According to my prof, this is one of the hardest classes in the entire economics program. So what do you...

A Bombshell is Vulnerable:
While some women contrive to cover their hearts, the Bombshell reveals her feelings without calculating the consequences, regardless of the risk. She is so in tune with her emotions that she allows them to surface in a heartbeat. However, she is so enduring that most people are more inclined to rescue her than to do her harm. This is not southern...

You don't owe anyone anything. You're just you and you're a beautiful lady.
So I'm still waiting for you to take me on! *flexes*

Nice meeting you today! Finally a proper introduction. I see you desire the beverage known as "coffee".
I've made some breakfast and coffee
Look out my window and what do I see
A crack in the sky
and a hand reaching down to me
- "Oh You Pretty Things"
Pork chop walked down the counter and beat up my cup of coffee.. coffee wasn't strong enough to defend itself..

I have had the most unbelievable, surreal past couple of days. Not good surreal, but very nightmare-ish, psychologically-taxing surreal. I have never before felt so betrayed and angry. And I don't say dramatic statements like that very often. I mean this.
If there's one thing that I've learned, it is that in a situation where there is no closure, one must create her own closure....

Bleh. Those days suck. However, it *will* become the past, rest assured, just not as quickly as you'd like.

I'm home soonish. Then you must come out with us and drink tea and bask in the loveliness that is Victoria SGs. And I'll bask in the loveliness that is LuluMae 
Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I've tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if I had to perish twice,
I think that I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.

Great quote. You are beautiful.

I updated my journal for you.
I am on summer vacation! I finished my last exam yesterday, so school is officially out. Until I start classes again on September 3rd. But unTIL then, you will be able to find me drinking a mint julippe in the sunny spot on my front porch.
Well, actually, you might find me at work. Or drinking a coffee inside, because the weather's kind of crapped...

I had a lovely time at tea, my tummy is so full of soy goodness. I found some great finds at a thrift shop right after we parted: vintage dress-belt buckles, and two matching feather hat plumes, gorgeous....two of them, two of us....hmmm are you thinking what I'm thinking?
Oh, and I've got a positive vote on a name...

Enjoy the boss Boss.
I leave you with this smidgen of poesy:
There is something about a mint julep.
It is nectar imbibed in a dream,
As fresh as the bud of the tulip,
As cool as the bed of the stream.
There is something about a mint julep,
A fragrance beloved by the lucky.
And perhaps it's the tint
Of the frost and the mint,
But I think it was born in Kentucky.

I've got my Bitch Boots on, I've got my portfolio under my arm... yes folks, LuluMae is goin' a job-huntin'.
It's 9:00. Bars and restaurants are open. Time to go pimp myself for an underpaid position. I don't mind, much... I just wish there were more night shifts in the piercing world. Or any. Hmm...
I had a fabulous time yesterday looking at Bettina's pictures...

Okay, I have to say I'm a little down.
I have to stay positive while job hunting, and I think I manage to do so very well. And I didn't expect it to be easy. I've been out of every industry BUT the piercing industry for five years. I'm a hard worker at anything I do, and I can find the "fun" aspect of any...

right now i'm reading 'polaroids from the dead',
(not DC's best book, but awesome nonetheless), drinking a jack and coke and eating chips + salsa in my sealy posturepedic, and wondering whatever happened to Wheels.
does this mean we're engaged?

I'm having a bit of a surreal weekend.
One day I'm piercing, the next I'm studying for a math exam, one night I'm onstage with my fellow Suicide Girls, looking all fabulous with my painted nails, curly hair and make-up, the next night I'm armpit-deep in industrail cleaner out at the womens' shelter, scrubbing the hell out of a rusty iron fence.

I can't wait to see said set, Bettina told me that it was uber cute.

Wow. Now that was a night to remember.
I don't even think I'm going to attempt a haiku on yesterday evening. I had so much fun at the Fetish Show with my fellow Victoria SG's. Our set (which was done to Peggy Lee's "Fever" and during which we were all wearing matching PVC mini nurses dresses) went very smoothly. What can I say? I got...

I really wish I could have been there, sounds like too much fun.

I actually quit school because I was bored. I tried SO fucking hard to force myself into getting stimulated. I even tried to do extra study projects on the side; but it became pointless after I ether didnt receive credit for the extra work or it didnt fit in the provs curriculum.
