i've got my last final @ 3.
i'm going to take a break from studying to bitch about it.
it's the scariest class i have. i don't know why i'm stressing out about it so much though. grades really aren't a big deal to me. i guess it's just all the info i have to try to fit in my brain - basically all the major european events/uprisings that have happened since WWI - there are more than 40 of them and i'm supposed to know them in detail - dates, people involved, effects, etc. theeen there is the essay part. i really hope the essay about woodrow wilson and the versailles treaty is on the test because it's the one i know best. that means it probably WON'T be on the test. boo.
last night i got bored with "sutdying" after watching a few episodes of the 1st season of nip/tuck (ry brought over the dvds), so i wrote a little poem (yeah, i'm a nerd, i know) because i couldn't stop thinking about war war war and the BR ship Lusitania that was sunk leading up to WWI. history is creepy. so here is my poem-
1915 maritime freeze
little boys with checkerboard
chipped teeth
war creeps up vertigo limbs
cuts through
strawberry skin
now in the trenches
earth stained apocalypse
blood birds
and barbed forests
amputated heart strings
draw easy genocide sighs
you were the reaper
but he couldn't warn her
i just want to fast forward to 5pm. i'm going to go eat some drinkable yogurt now and try to think of little memmorization tricks so i can make my C. woo!
and hopefully my sister will show up over here sometime today so i can charge my stupid cell phone
*out

That is one hell of a good poem incidentally. Very powerful imagery.
