i found out the name of that video that ruined my life last week. it's called battered hearts, so if you're interested in domestic violence at all, see if you can find it. the only part of the video that's really worth paying any attention to is that 911 call in the beginning. be prepared to cry a lot if you get your hands on it.
i talked to the chick that's going to be doing the self-mutilation session today. she says she's going to be showing a pretty graphic video on the topic and she'd like me to "tell my story" (i hate that phrase) once it's over if i'm still feeling strong enough to do so. i really think it's something people need to know about, though. people have so many off the wall ideas about this that it's not even funny, so if i can put some kind of rational face on it for even a few people, that would be nice.
i have to write a paper on some historical figure in psychology by midnight friday. i don't have any articles yet. i'm thinking pavlov, bandura, piaget, or one of those other developmental guys.
i met with the philosophy chair this morning. he bitched at me for not scheduling my history class in the summer and taking an upper level philosophy course this semester because then i wouldn't have a problem and told me essentially that i was irresponsible. i countered with the fact that i came from a smaller school and given that, i expected that etsu would offer anything i needed during the summer because it was a bigger school. so he told me to take the asian cultures course for the pre-summer term and then i could do an independent study based on that. so i may be graduating in august after all, which makes me feel better.
school, school, school.
i want the regina spektor album. i'm so sick of our entire cd collection. i listened to ani's not a pretty girl, my 80s mix, and the garden state soundtrack today. who wants to make me a mix cd? need newness.
also, it's time for a haircut. i want something like ink has in her "true romance" set. i think it would be cute. i just keep getting shorter, i don't know how i'll ever grow my hair back out. seriously, look at this shit:
look how long that hair is! that was one of my senior photos. obviously, i was still having my goth phase and still had a lot of babyfat.
meow.
edited for punknitemike to "tell my story": i've been cutting myself since i was fourteen. it's become a coping mechanism. the end. i just want people to get rid of their misconceptions and understand that the people who do this aren't necessarily angsty teenagers who just want attention.

yes the cuttin yrself thing is true...i thought it was a teenage thing too but its not...my mom used to wonder why knives were missing from her sets and ending up in my sock drawer all bloody...it is a coping mechanism ive learned like you say...its not for attention..if it was it wouldnt be done alone ..sometimes its just easier to sleep after...kind of like a release..like an orgasm..anyway...isnt that tori show right around the corner??
ill make you a mix cd if you really want one...
