Pierre Bourdieu will make your eyes cross and perform tricks like a malformed baboon. Taking 20 credit hours will do the same. Three papers, two days, and no sleep. There are days Patrick leaves for work at 5am and I don’t see him again until 10 or 11 due to schedule differences but we know that life happens that way. One of the most exciting things to happen is Liz finally getting a Wii and coming to my Animals Crossing town and to my surprise, she had the same hairdo I did. My sister is now officially engaged to Durand and my cousin Katie is engaged to her boyfriend, Jeremy. No worries, ladies and gents, they have a few years on us so there is no rush. I’m not worried about getting married, I’m worried about becoming economically stable in a world where there is little money to be found because of everyone else holding on to what they have for dear life. The hegemony has placed too much importance on two pieces of paper: cash and degrees. Worries are sometimes solved or transform into a different variety. Welcome to adulthood in 2011.
That was a schizophrenic post. I wonder who still reads this since I haven’t posted in months on top of months.
I’m making a mix because I haven’t done it in a while (with no one in mind for its first spin) so perhaps it will be titled “The best EVER…not really”. The best right now? No, certainly not the best I can do or the best music that was ever recorded. “The best for now”. Or “I’ve never stopped dancing”.
This one will make me drop everything and do a funky dance, no lie. I don’t know if it’s the Bowie-esque quality in his voice but, holy goodness. I do love it.
I do know the mark of an amazing album though… you will change which song you like the best every other time you listen to it.
This one always makes me think of my sister. It makes me cry if I think about it. Best not to think too much.
and I wish this eye twitch would go away (it only just started on hour 49 of the no sleep marathon). My cognitive reasoning is fine. Yes, that could be argued.
A recommendation: A sucker for a dark comedy, always. Youth In Revolt made me laugh so very, very hard. Yes, Michael Cera is in it. Don’t hate me for that. And a picture I love (don’t ask me who dun it cuz I dunt remember):
We will talk soon.
Sounds like you’ve got a lot on your plate this semester, dear. I’m very familiar with the eye twitch, that sucks. Just stay focused and sane, you’re almost done!
Thanks for posting! And congrats to Mary and Katie.
I’m just now “discovering”/reading these recent posts. This is a deep one, Em, and cash/adulthood is a truly scary reality thing sometimes. Seems all you can do is buy in.
Mary’s in Australia for good, it seems, and good for her. When people get engaged, it selfishly makes me wonder what’s in the stars for me. I went to a psychic a few weeks ago (she didn’t call herself that, though).
