Bridge of Birds

~~~~ Okay

What's a good book?

Bridge of Birds is a good book. You really should read it.

What a seemingly looooong weekend. I think it's because I didn't go to my classes Friday. And we also went out which made Friday night longer than normal. Green apple schnapps? Delicious! Saturday we went to the last Hockey game ever to be played at Goggin. I think my Dad went to the first to ever be played so that's kinda cool. 40 years later I'm sharing the end of something he saw begin. Today we went to Kroger and spent entirley too much time parked in front of the television. Watched the season finale of Dancing With the Stars. Drew won *yay* Jerry came in second *more yay* and Stacey was third. Just the way I wanted it to work out. Just finished watching Grey's Anatomy. I think I'm gonna have to find out what's happened in the past seasons because even though I really enjoy the show, sometimes I have no idea what's going on. George however is uber cute and I totally want to make all the pain Meredith has caused him go away ;)

Tomorrow I have so very much to do.
At 1:00 I have to meet with the head of the History department to declare my second major. I hope that only takes an hour because I have to go to English at 2:00. Fortunatley, my meeting's only in Upham so I if worst comes to worst I can leave Upham at 1:55 and still get to class on time. After English I have to go to MacMillan to talk to the people there about studying abroad next year at AUC or Steffie will be very disappointed with me :rolleyes: hehe. I also want to go to the Rec, call the yearbook people to get a 1976 yearbook for my dad, find out when Parent's Weekend is next year, and make a hair appointment for spring break. On top of homework and classes of course... I think I'll take a Tylenol PM right now and hopefully be asleep by midnight. Bridge of Birds just keeps getting better. I'm almost done with it and I think I'll read Wicked next. I want to get it doen before the show this summer. I guess I have pleanty of time to get it read but I think I'm getting anxious. I wonder how much like the show it is. Oh, I should also bring up that Chanda and Lindsay want tickets to Wicked too when I tell my mom to make me a hair appointment. I need to email my aunt back too. Maybe I can get my cousin's job at the Wooster Book Co. or work the GreenLeaf job and the Wooster Book Co. I like that idea. I just DON'T want to work at the brush again!!!

My Angry Vagina

~~~~ Excited

My vagina's angry. It is. It's pissed off. My vagina's furious and it needs to talk. It needs to talk about all this shit. It needs to talk to you. I mean what's the deal — an army of people out there thinking up ways to torture my poor-ass, gentle loving vagina. Spending their days constructing psycho products, and nasty ideas to undermine my pussy. Vagina Motherfuckers.

All this shit they're constantly trying to shove up us, clean us up — stuff us up, make it go away. Well, my vagina's not going away. It's pissed off and it's staying right here. Like tampons — what the hell is that? A wad of dry fucking cotton stuffed up there. Why can't they find a way to subtly lubricate the tampon? As soon as my vagina sees it, it goes into shock. It says forget it. It closes up. You need to work with the vagina, introduce it to things, prepare the way. That's what foreplay's all about. You got to convince my vagina, seduce my vagina, engage my vagina's trust. You can't do that with a dry wad of fucking cotton.

Stop shoving things up me. Stop shoving and stop cleaning it up. My vagina doesn't need to be cleaned up. It smells good already. Don't try to decorate. Don't believe him when he tells you it smells like rose petals when it's supposed to smell like pussy. That's what they're doing, trying to clean it up, make it smell like bathroom spray or a garden. All those douche sprays, floral, berry, rain. I don't want my pussy to smell like berries or rain. All cleaned up like washing a fish after you cook it. I want to taste the fish. That's why I ordered it.

Then there's those exams. Who thought them up? There's got to be a better way to do those exams. Why the scary paper dress that scratches your tits and crunches when you lie down so you feel like a wad of paper someone threw away? Why the rubber gloves? Why the flashlight all up there like Nancy Drew working against gravity, why the Nazi steel stirrups, the mean cold duck lips they shove inside you? What's that? My vagina's angry about those visits. It gets defended weeks in advance. It won't go out of the house. Then you get there. Don't you hate that? "Scoot down. Relax your vagina." Why? So you can shove mean cold duck lips inside it. I don't think so.

Why can't they find some nice delicious purple velvet and wrap it around me, lay me down on some feathery cotton spread, put on some nice friendly pink or blue gloves, and rest my feet in some fur covered stirrups? Warm up the duck lips. Work with my vagina.

But no, more tortures — dry wad of fucking cotton, cold duck lips, and thong underwear. That's the worst. Thong underwear. Who thought that up? Moves around all the time, gets stuck in the back of your vagina, real crusty butt.

Vagina's supposed to be loose and wide, not held together. That's why girdles are so bad. We need to move and spread and talk and talk. Vaginas need comfort. Make something like that. Something to give them pleasure. No, of course they won't do that. Hate to see a woman having pleasure, particularly sexual pleasure. I mean make a nice pair of soft cotton underwear with a French tickler built in. Women would be coming all day long, coming in the supermarket, coming on the subway, coming happy vaginas. They wouldn't be able to stand it. Seeing all those energized, not taking shit, hot happy vaginas.

If my vagina could talk it would talk about itself like me, it would talk about other vaginas, it would do vagina impressions.

It would wear Harry Winston diamonds, no clothing, just there all draped in diamonds.

My vagina helped release a giant baby. It thought it would be doing more of that. It's not. Now, it wants to travel, doesn't want a lot of company. It wants to read and know things and get out more. It wants sex. It loves sex. It wants to go deeper. It's hungry for depth. It wants kindness. It wants change. It wants silence and freedom and gentle kisses and warm liquids and deep touch. It wants chocolate and trust and beauty. It wants to scream. It wants to stop being angry. It wants to come. It wants to want. It wants. My vagina, my vagina. Well...It wants everything.

No Day But Today

~~~~ Distressed

I don't know why but it was so much easier to post to modblog... hmmmm. Oh well.

This was a good weekend. Saturday we went to the basketball game (we won!) and then to Pizza Hut. Lindsay and I got one of those new pizza with the little bits on the end. It was pretty good. It turns out that Steph's parents randomly had decided to come down so we had a car at our service this weekend which was a pleasant surprise. Sunday we went to the mall. I was so proud of myself because I didn't buy anything. Then we got back and had dinner at Bob Evans before Lindsay and I went to see Brokeback Mountain again *pleasant feelings* Today we got up early and went to Wal-Mart. I got more bottled water so I don't have to waste my meal plan on Fiji Water yet. After Wal-Mart I realized that I have so much more time when I wake up earlier on the weekends so I decided I'll do that from now on. Lindsay and I have a pact. We'll have our alarms set for 10:30, and when they go off we'll call each other to make sure we actually get up. I can't believe it's only 7:00 right now.

My day tomorrow goes like this:
8:15 - Wake Up
9:00 - History Class
9:50 - Get Declaring Minor Form From Upham
10:00 - Go to Library
12:00 - Italian
12:50 - Get Smoothie and Go Back to Library
2:00 - English
2:50 - Meet With the Head of the Classics Department to Declar my Classics Minor *Cheers*
4:00 - HOMEWORK!
5:15 - Dinner at Panache With the Girls

After Panache I need to do more Homework and Laundry and then Laura is taking me to Wal-Mart so I can get RENT!!!!!!! *YaY* It comes out tomorrow!!!!

NO DAY BUT TODAY

The Meaning of Life

~~~~ Crazy

Mr. Osama,
Please do not kill my friend tonight. Because if you do she'll come back as a dolphin that will leap onto the earth and I'll know the meaning of life is pot.

Thank you for your time.

Happy Valentine's Day

~~~~ Hungry

And all that jazz. Woke up this morning and went to Botany. Then I took my Italian Midterm. Some parts of it I did really well and others I totally bombed, I just know it. Went to Bell Tower for lunch where some sorority girl gave me a kiss. It was cute. Went to the library and got my Botany and Italian homework done. Then went to Anthropology. My prof gave us cookies since we "separated ourselves from our valentines long enough to go to class" grrrr....

Came back and found flowers on my desk. They were from Tom :)
It turns out they traveled halfway around the dorm to get here though. The flower people called me but I was at class and didn't answer. So they gave them to my neighbors to give to me. I'm not really close to my neighbors so they took them to their friend's room who happens to live with one of my friends. They set them on their friend's desk who turned around and set them on my friend's desk who put them in my room when she got back. Few. That was exhausting and kinda humorous.

Tonight Lindsay, Steph, and I are going to Panache for dinner and then to Hall to see Ballet NY. I'm quite excited really. Plus I'm verrrrrry hungry so I'd be willing to go, like now! FOOOOOOOOOD!

Tomorrow Lost is on :) Cheers! Thursday is Dancing With the Stars and Crumbs and this weekend is a three day weekend! Is it sad I count my days by what tv shows are on? It's college, I need some way to pass the time other then school work!

~~~~ Aggravated

*Humph* I'm not sure what's wrong I just don't feel right. That makes no sense. I've been sick all weekend. It's been nice to sleep a lot but I just kinda don't feel right. I'll take nyquill soon and hopefully get to bed at a decent hour. Still reading The Shining. It's not as bad as I feared. There's just enough lull inbetween horrifying chapters to make it bearable. And quite good to be perfectly honest. I have a feeling though, since I have less than 100 pages left it'll start to pick up real soon as I hit the climax.

Brokeback Mountain? FANTASTIC MOVIE! I want to see it again. It was son intense, romantic, and touching all at once. Plus, the cute eye-candy didn't really hurt either ;)




Tomorrow I wake up at 8:00, go to History, go to the library, Italain, get a smoothie to take back to the library, english, come back here for a little bit, rec, shower, then let the rest of my day unfold... Not very much homework would be nice. I would like to finish The Shining before Bridge of Birds comes in.

~~~~ Recumbent

Just saw Jarhead with my friends. It was a war movie. I'm anti-war. I mean, it could have been worse but it could have been much better. We're seeing Brokeback Mountain tomorrow and I have a feeling that will be much more my taste.

Today was a really nice day. I woke up at 11:00 and went to Botany. That kinda sucked but it always feels so good to get out of that class. Then I chilled for a while before English. Then I went up to Wells and got a package my parents sent me. My shirts from Delias finally came and lots of cookies and sweets. Then Steph and I went to the rec and went to BW3s for dinner with Lindsay. I saw Kevin there from my Anthropology class. Then we went to Coldstone and I had White Chocolate ice cream with peanut butter... mmmm that was verrry tastey. Aftwerward we watched The Sound of Music. I've seen that movie many times but never all of it. "You are 17 going on 18. Yooouuuu'll take caaaare of meeee. WEEEEEEEEEEEEE." Priceless.

Tomorrow I have to tape Steph's english project and then we're going to see Brokeback Mountain :) I feel as if we're doing something else but I don't remember. Sunday is a Kroger run with dinner at Spaghettis. It'll be a nice weekend. Not too much to do but enough to keep me sane.

Snapshots17 (2:46:40 AM): but meet me half way on this one, see what you can do about growing a penis...

Snapshots17 (2:52:12 AM): y tu tambien chica atractiva

Please?

~~~~ Sleepy

Can I just stay a college Freshman for the rest of my life? Then I wouldn't have to decide on my major, or decide if I want to double major or double minor or have no minor or how to fit Cairo into my plans while still graduating in 2009. I just want to live in 214 McBride and go to the same classes and keep things from ever getting any harder or easier. Oh, and P.S. I would stay the same age too. That'd be great, thanks.

Hmmm

~~~~ Happy

It's amazing that so many people can be so enthralled with something like football. One of the commercials that companies spend millions of dollars for said something along the lines of "football and the Superbowl are the most American thing out there." Now, I'm not saying they aren't for I know most televisions across this country are currently tuned into the Superbowl and watching even if they haven't seen any other game all year. But I do like to pretend that maybe America could be about alittle more than that. Possibly? I'm not trying to protest some mainstream corporate America idea here... I mean, I'm watching the Superbowl right now -- The Rolling Stones are playing -- I would like to see Seattle win. The world just makes me wonder at times. Should we be paying more attention to other things in our lives or is it a good thing that we live in a world where it's perfectly acceptable to turn on the television and watch something like the Superbowl? Life is a strange thing. Children are sleeping outside right now starving while others are stuffing their faces with wings and pizza. Is that the natural state of the world? Is this just how things work out? Some people prosper beyond belief while others wither and die without a chance. Things like this are addressed to the masses and they do think about them-- for a while. Then they leave the classroom, or click out of the webpage, or close the newspaper. And turn on their televisions. Should we feel bad about that? Or is that just the way things are.

I hate thinking those things. They make me feel so helpless. There's no way to convince the masses of anything nowadays. Not without some terrorist attack or mass pandemic of sorts. Why does everything have to be radical to make changes. And then why are the radicals thwarted in every day life? We don't allow revolutions but it's the revolutions that change us the most.

We just can't win.

What's Love Got to do With It?

~~~~ Indescribable

This is terrible. It's 9:37 on a Friday night and here I am sitting on my bed watching Legally Blonde, by myself. I mean, my roommate is out for once so I do have the room to myself. Something I really don't get all to often but this is still kinda strange for me. Some of Steph's friends came down for the weekend so they're hanging out right now and I'm not too sure what Lindsay's doing. I told her she should come join me but I guess she's hanging out with her roommate right now. Oh well, this is kinda nice. We are going out later tonight. Rent's showing and we'll head out for that and stuff. Tomorrow Lindsay and I are getting up at 10 to check out the 1809 Room for once and then start our movie marathon. There's also a Hockey Game tomorrow and I know Steph and her friends are going and I'm sure Lindsay's going but I'm not sure if I will. I mean, I do like watching Hockey Games but I enjoy them differently from everyone else and normally I get kinda bored by the end. Lindsay always gets worried that I'm not enjoying myself when really I am but maybe I'll save everyone the stress and just not go. They always give me headaches too.

Sunday's the Superbowl. Go Seattle Seahawks!

Today I woke up at 10:30 and stayed in bed for a while. Then I got up and went to class. I did get the first Debate group for Botany. Grrr. Plus, I'm suppose to debate FOR drilling in Alaska. How the hell am I suppose to do that? Then I came back for a while until English. My Professor finally came out to us. I find the longer I'm in that class the more I enjoy it. Came back here and did nothing until dinner. Steph and I went to Bell Tower. Come summer I'm not sure what I'll do without those smoothies. I may have to take road trips down here just to get one *tee-hee*

All of Your Fears Will Pass Away, Safe in my Arms

~~~~ Stressed

Why do the white gulls call?

Well, I don't know because it's taken me entirley too long to finish the Return of the King this time.

My iPod is finally working on my blog! Yay! I like the way it looks and it makes me feel special. I can't wait for it to update so I can see how my music preferences change from week to week.

I got a lot done today. Everything except my Botany. I can't find the website he's talking about. He calls it an electronic reserve. I just keep looking and looking but no luck. :( Humph.

Requested my Anthropology book today. I'm still kinda sad because it was one of the books I least wanted on my list but it might help me with, :eek: *clears throat* my current "predicament".

Hopefully I'll be able to go to bed early tonight. Since I don't have anything to do after Lost (which is on in t-minus 59 minutes) I should get bored pretty fast and go to sleep.

Tomorrow's Schedule:

10:15 Wake Up 11:00 Botany 12:00 Italian 1:00 Smoothie at Bell Tower - take it to Library to get some work done 2:00 Anthropology (I HOPE we don't get our tests back yet :confused: ) 3: 15 Rec 4:45 Shower 5:15 Homework 6:00 History Discussion Group 6:50 Call Tom 7:20 Dinner from Market + any additional homework 8:00 Dancing With the Stars 9:30 Crumbs!

Now, if the day goes without any problems it'll be a really good day! :rolleyes:
