I’m in a pissy mood.
So I deleted my myspace (haven’t been on in MONTHS) and went through all my friends on facebook and deleted all the stupid people who I never talk to in real life anyway.
I feel a little bit better now.
My plan is to give an inspirational speech in Chapter tonight. Maybe I’m the one who needs it, not the girls. Whatever. They can suffer through it.

SELFLESSNESS IS BEAUTIFUL.
PRACTICE IT EVERY DAY.
I miss summer.
Also I could go for a nice walk through the woods.
When was the last time I even did that?

“…when the European explorers came upon people who looked different from them, their assumptions about the origin of the human species were called into question. As a result, religious debates regarding creation and whether or not God created a single species of humanity led to questions about whether or not the natives of the New World could be ‘saved’ as well as about...

“…the United States is currently a society based on the notion of civil rights — a system based on majority rule. When we vote, the will of the “majority” becomes the will of all. This system is designed to bring the greatest good for the greatest number. In addition, there is a fundamental belief that if one is a “good” citizen, one earns rights within...

i understand your sentiments here, but I came to a realization last week as I found myself watching Conan coverage and Haiti coverage - sometimes you just need the break, you just need to be able to focus on Coco.

Be! Aggressive! B-E Aggressive!
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD.
I’m kind of bursting to say something, but I can’t begin to imagine what that would be.
I guess I have mixed feelings.
I believe a list is in order.
1. Listen to Dispatch.
2. At this moment in time, I think you’re a joke.
3. I had a really good time with the girls today.
4. I bought a nice scarf.
5. I’m happy here.
6. Most of the time.
7. I think I’m actually...

1. Race is a modern idea. Ancient societies, like the Greeks, did not divide people according to physical distinctions but according to religion, status, class, even language.
2. Race has no genetic basis. Not one characteristic, trait or even gene distinguishes all the members of one so-called race from all the members of another so-called race.
3. Human subspecies don’t exist. Unlike...

He originally came to spend a few hours with me on Saturday, but it turned into a stay of four days just because I needed to be taken care of. This amazing man: was literally there to catch me when I passed out, drove me to the hospital and stayed with me the entire time, even though...

my week thus far:
Saturday night/Sunday morning: Spent 9 hours in the hospital after having severe abdominal pain and fainting. Turns out there was a cyst on my ovary that burst, and the pain came from the blood spreading inside my abdomen. I worried that it was my appendix since my right side was hurting, as did the doctor… it took a long time to isolate the problem. Meanwhile, I experienced my:
