Inspiration for the day: Theodore Roosevelt
It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short...

So, I have been back and forth lately on buying a Linkin' Park CD... If I were to buy one which would you recommend?
I have been working like a madwoman these past couple of days. There has been this surreal peace that has come along with it...like extreme satisfaction at positively working myself into nothingness. Oh wait, I know what that's about...work drowns out all of the frustration and unsure feelings that I am having about every OTHER aspect of my life.
Here's the scenario: I am 23...

Said your mom was ill, that has probably helped keep you at home. But if you can, you should definately move out from the folks and dive into life and get a taste of what you're looking for. There's no reason to hold out. School is probably the best excuse too. Even UVA, I've heard it's tops and cheap. I met so many cool students and profs at school and learned a helluva lot of stuff that "I" was interested in. Picking your own classes! That kicks ass. Goddam law school.
So my advice is go for it girl.

So one of my very good friends moved out of the state like two weekends ago and we had a little get together at the bar. My best friend (the one in the pics) was in town from school and she came to the bar and waited until I was pretty far gone to tell me that she *suddenly* thought I was a hypocrite. I...

thanks for the sweet compliments on my set!

I'm sorry about your best friend! People are strange creatures. I have had those same experiences with people, sometimes it is a moving on with life thing and sometimes it is something else. I hope you come to a positive conclusion about this.
Yeah the procrastination is me putting of all my course work until the very end of the semester. Now I am totally fucked- but I'll survive- I hope.
I like the idea of a support group, but if we are all procrastinators we will just keep putting it off!
I think we will need a non-procratinator to start the support group for us- perhaps Dr. Phil would be interested!
I heard there was an earthquake in VA. was it near you? Are you OK?

I have been so busy the past couple of days. What sucks is that I tend to get drawn into doing things I couldn't care less about with people who are less than stimulating, but to whom I feel an obligation to. So my weekend is almost gone. The bright note is that I got a chance to revert to my youth by eating lucky...

Sounds like a perfect Saturday, even though the sun has fallen on the weekend already a break is always great.

every time I see comments in my journal, I feel the need to yell "i have friends I have friends" in that elementary school sing song voice....
Yay! SG rocks more and more every single day, not to mention the most exotic assortment of beautifulSexyAmazingIntelligent people ever! OMG am I actually happy today. Everyone, mark your calendar!
I have an open mic tonight and I am nervous. You'd think that after sharing my poetry with the masses for more than a year I would have ceased to be a wimp about it!...

I lived in Baltimore last year. The night before the blizzard I decided to go to a party in PA and got stuck there for three days. I'm staying inside this time.

How you liking the snow out there. Fucking Norman Rockwell isn't it. Whoo hoo.
Life altering decisions are just around the bend, dangerous curves ahead.....
I have been bullshitting about college since I graduated high school (like um 5 years ago). Now I am seriously (really, this time) contemplating taking a concentrated run at it....change is a mutha'. Not to mention that Virginia is for Lovers and all, but this is the ONLY place I've ever lived and I...

you're approved . . . now post something!!

Good for you, I think it is a great decision. You should study whatever will keep you interested for the next four years. If your attention span is as short as mine that will help.
Try to pick a school in a climate and geography that you like and one that won't leave you in major debt by the time you get your diploma.
All that said, and this is the hard part, where will you want to be in five years? Where will you NOT want to be? Most of my life I operated on trying to get what I wanted, but lately I think it's just as important to know what you DON'T WANT and work from there.

So I am posting a poem today. I scrawled it in a wendy's napkin at like 2:am this morning (like a.m. doesn't mean morning, i hate when people do that!).
It's happening again

The progression of time is a bitch. Lately, everytime I write the date, I am reminded of what I was doing this time last year. It forces me to think about what I said I was gonna do but claim i never got a round to it. Like daily new year's resolutions...

Okay, today is actually wonderful. I am being anti-everything and choosing NOT to shop today because I think there is some evil subplot by the powers that be to MAKE me shop today. Honestly, that thought wasn't supposed to be so convolouted. It is crisp and beautiful outside today.
