I think that is my new favorite word. Hmmph if you aren't careful your thread comments might actually cheer me up. And we wouldn't want that.
ugh..can this day just end & never happen again?

Well, last night I took my calculus final, and it was like an insane asylum. The whole class was laughing, no cackling, and throwing our hands in the air, and crying too. The teacher gave up and passed out chocolates. Today was chem, the year long cumulative, and, well, at least it's over right?
Hooray for 40's! And Bora bora! I'd say your lucky to have more time, but I'm almost just glad to get them over with, even if I didn't do so well. But, just use the extra time to study...or just fuck off and write some brilliant prose..whateva. Have you heard from UCSB yet?
We should hang out. Outside of school and away from the prying ears of who knows who and you know who. I'd love to pick yer brain, and gossip SG style!
Good luck on finals!

writers workshop for 5/9: one word prompt: Mom. i think i am quite possibly the only person i know that is really in no way fucked up with mommy issues. my mom is ever patient, encouraging, kind and gentle, fiercely strong, independent and intelligent, successful and feminine, weak and human, she never pretended that she knew everything yet we were never afraid that she didnt...

that probably was one of the most touching things ive ever read. i have a pretty good relationship with my mom, i mean she nags me to death, but i know its because she cares. the fact your mom spent all of her vacation days on you is amazing, i know my mom wouldnt ever do that, she would just call me on the phone and drop by when she could. instead of being there everyday. i hate saying this, but i dont think i could blame her because i dont think id be as giving as your mom is. and even in writing this, i feel bad for my mom, because even though i know she cares about me, i give her a lot of shit sometimes.

Awww was that your mother's day tribute?

Well i don't know about painbearer's ladies, but I for one will read anything you wriite. Even if it is about copyrights. If all these damn lawyers wrote half as well as you maybe I wouldn't suffer from terminal boredom. I am starting to think you could even write an interesting commercial transactions contract. Well ok maybe that is going too far.

You are so gifted. Lets leave our menfolk and become stowaways on a ship. We can live in the bilge, dine on rats and sing each other to sleep at night. Maybe one day we'll wake up in Bora bora, to live out our days on a sandy beach in a grass hut, spearfishing and dancing in the moonlight. You'll have to bring your typewriter.

holy fantasies batman! the two of you as stowaways....i could write a masterpiece just on the silent images of that little tango.
its things like this which keep me alive...

Never nonsensical, They always speak straight to my heart & soul touching on things I am feeling now or have felt recently. I admit that I read them for my own selfish reasons they provide as much catharsis for me as the reader as i hope they do you as the writer. And thanks for the cheer up, not every day A beautiful, intelligent 22 year old cheers up an old man like me

_argos_:
Yes, cryptic indeed...... But as I read, the words spilled forth from your mind as mere words...... I have only my imagination to construct what I think you are actually feeling. Your words are powerful and yet, mysterious and a sort of searching.
"but temper tantrums aren't befitting in a world where other minds are just as alive as yours, where you know that desperation, anger,grief does not make you special or significant. a child is obsessed with the world in their own mind. there is no hopelessness in childhood. there is only "maybe". maybe if i cry, if i throw myself to floor, maybe if i just...but growing up means running out of maybes."
This is wonderful - I have felt like this often and always figured I was alone in that feeling - as if I was alone in a forest of reason. Now I can find solace in the fact that I stand not alone, yet with others.
I read every last word and drank them up like a man who hasn't had a drop of water in days......greedily. I suppose that I just enjoy experiencing the world of another via these words - that convey much more to me that seems initially obvious..........
"...when did the world tell us that we needed to stop being dramatic?"
Exactly! That is a question I have asked myself over and over....... and the answer is the world never told us to stop being dramatic - only others who would deny our right to it....
Editted because I am only human....

i want to hurt you.

Please don't do that. I have been hurt enough already. But....if you want I can give you a list of people who deserve to be hurt.
eurisko:
if you must..... well wait no.... ill have to take a rain check because i was to be in good health for a while.
i have no pretty words today just double helix crossings of emotions, they are overlapping, interwoven & unpolished. inevitably they lead only to more words and commas, continuations of incomplete thoughts and inconclusions loosely knitted by fragmented chips of grammar, adverbs and prepostions, words like "unless" and "thereof" and "otherwise" which glue these fragments of thought and experience together into a cohesive narrative.

unless is a great word, i tend to be in the "i cant do it unless..." catergory. it seems i always use that one. mainy because it is my way of testing people to see if they really have in interest in truly wanting or needing me to help them out.

Don't be so hard on yourself. It's no doubt got to be frustrating for precisely the fact that if you are normally prolific you feel you should be able to 'turn it on' whenever. I get a similar frustration when I design or draw and nothing seems to come out right, or even at all.
Hmmmm...I wish I had something more constructive to add than that...but I'm sure it will come
just don't let it piss you off too much.

there was this one time where i stayed up for nearly 3 days making myself crazy writing a term paper. somewhere around the 36th hour, i wrote on a post-it "you could have done this a long time ago". i stuck it along the edge of my monitor and i haven't been late on a paper in over a year.

lady circumstance located me at a peace protest today on campus. there were throngs of patchuli stinking hippies beating drums and laying sprawled across each other, staging "die-ins" on the cement. and one dreadlocked freak show strolling about on stilts. they were chanting & spouting rhetoric like the right wing media's wet dream. jesus fucking christ, didn't we learn anything from vietnam? these benighted fucking...
