Where the Sidewalk Ends
Aunt Becky bought me this book of poetry when I was small. It’s funny how I never appreciated it much, until now, when I’m big.
The Hollow Men by T.S. Eliot
Mistah Kurtz — he dead. A penny for the Old Guy
I We are the hollow men We are the stuffed men Leaning together Headpiece filled with straw. Alas! Our dried voices, when We whisper together Are quiet and meaningless As wind in dry grass Or rats’ feet over broken glass In our dry cellar Shape without form, shade without colour, Paralysed force,...

Please tell me why these adorable plush animals are so expensive. I would never buy my child a fake, squishy $40 hedgehog, regardless of it’s natural appeal.

Meat By Product
Hot dog! Unfortunately, I have come into a great obsession and/or addiction with hot dogs during my freshman college year. This very convenient processed meat is a delight to my taste buds, and lately, I find it irresistible.

Happy 70th Birthday Al Pacino
Straight. no chaser: Some thoughts. →
Last night, my roommate and I were in our room by ourselves for the first time, in probably 4 months. Our first semester, we would lay up there and talk about anything and everything, make stupid phone calls when we couldn’t sleep, and noteably just fuck around for hours even though I had to get…
These are the best days of our lives. Thanks for sharing, Casey.

what about black market caviar?
I love movies. Here are a few of my favorites.
1) Scent of a Woman, starring Al Pacino, Philip Seymore Hoffman, and Chris O’ Donnell. Came across this in my obsessive Pacino summer frenzy. Al’s acting is awesome, it is hilarious, and rather touching.
2) Sabrina, starring Audrey Hepburn, Humphrey Bogart, and William Holden. My favorite kind of love story, the awkward triangle and an un-layering of a more misunderstood...

Billy the compangry baby
For MASC 201 Curiousness, we were asked to, with a partner, create a new emotion and express it using paint. My partner and I combined our favorite emotions, his was compassion, mine was playful anger. Together they formed companger, which is an anger that doesn’t mean much because you have so much compassion and love for the subject of your anger. With this, Billy was born! We...
Lovely Bones
Last night a girl my age threw herself out of a window on the 16th floor in the building across from mine. I can’t stop thinking about her. Or her parents. I just don’t understand. What could drive you to do such a thing? It makes me so sad and afraid. She must have been sad and afraid too.
It makes me wonder how people treated her. Were they mean? Did they just ignore her? ...

Facts:
I have not shaved my legs in two weeks
I will fail my online class “Choices in Consumer Society” if I do not write an essay on why the class is important, and if I fail the test that I already failed, again. (In process currently).
There is a lot of essay writing that needs to be done within the next two weeks, and it is overwhelming.
Summer is approaching.

Oh, by the way, when I post these T-shirts that means I want them. Hint hint for next holiday.
