“At the end of the day, when it comes down to it, all we really want is to be close to somebody. So this thing, where we all keep our distance and pretend not to care about each other, is usually a load of bull. So we pick and choose who we want to remain close to, and once we’ve chosen those people, we tend to stick close by. No matter how much we hurt them, the people that are still with you at the end of the day - those are the ones worth keeping. And sure, sometimes close can be too close. But sometimes, that invasion of personal space, it can be exactly what you need.”

Watching P sleep.

  • -sits up after a long nap-
  • P: "You know, when there's a fire you just shouldn't keep anything, it's in the way."
  • T: "Pearls, what the hell are you talking about?"
  • P: "The fire. Everything is in the way. You need to move it. It's just in the way"
  • T: "Just go back to sleep.. sleeep."
  • P: "It's just.. you, it, needs to move -random hand gestures- I don't know what the hell I'm talking about."
  • -clonks back out-

lucky streak over?

I tried. In my own sick and twisted procrastinating ways, I tried. Really, I did. I read ten research journals, three books, and two reviews in one day. But the writing isn’t flowing, it’s not going! Nothing is connecting. Never in my undergraduate career have I been so dissatisfied with a paper. Research isn’t my thing. This can be attributed to the fact that I don’t know how to write a research paper. Yes, a senior at one of the leading research institutions does not know how to write a research paper. Can I be anymore lame?

Sure, I can blame it on the fact that I’m taking 19 units and I’ve been working too many hours. Sure I can blame this stupid fever that’s been coming back at the worse of times. But really, I had all of Friday and Saturday to get the ball rolling. But I’m a total contradiction: a cross between a student that suffers from delayed academic anxiety hours before a paper is due, and a cocky slacker that knows that she’ll manage to get through with at least that B, and thinks for the most part, there’s nothing to worry about. Well, the delayed academic anxiety has kicked in and there’s no way I can finish this.  But I’ll learn from this experience. My luck finally ran out.  I’ll do it right this time. I’ve asked for an extension. For the first time in seventeen years of schooling, I’m turning a paper in late.  Sorry buddy, even you run out of luck. Hell, I deserve this.

How I feel a lot of the time..

Stacey Orrico - More To Life

I’ve got it all, but I feel so deprived

I go up, I come down and I’m emptier inside
Tell me what is this thing that I feel like I’m missing
And why can’t I let it go

There’s gotta be more to life…
Than chasing down every temporary high to satisfy me
Cause the more that I’m…
Trippin’ out thinkin’ there must be more to life
Well it’s life, but I’m sure… There’s gotta be more

(Than wanting more)

I’ve got the time and I’m wasting it slowly
Here in this moment I’m half-way out the door
Onto the next thing, I’m searching for something that’s missing

I’m wanting more

I’m always waiting on something other than this
Why am I feelin’ like there’s something I missed….
Always… Always…

I think it’s funny that I can still feel like I’m thirteen again. I’m thankful that I can laugh so hard that I cry, that I can confide in my closest friends. Even in ugly finals week, and even though I’m so confused about the future, I’m still happy in my present. I can live with that.

Some intellectual conversations sprinked with the usual girl-talk, loaded with humor in the midst of not-so-sunny days. Lightbulbs turning on and some good laughs.
