05:03 am "feminism is the radical notion that women are people."
"i have never been able to precisely find out what feminism is; i only know that people call me a feminist whenever i express sentiments that differentiate me from a doormat." rebecca west, 1913

06:20 am and now, for your reading pleasure, the words of wisdom from the man himself, adam duritz:
I think you should all go out and buy the Justin Timberlake album. Immy and I can't stop listening to it. Either The Neptunes or Timbaland produce every track on it except one. I think The Neptunes are the best producers working today in any style of music and Timbaland's not far behind. All the tracks have cool grooves and Justin sings the shit out of them.
i am no longer obligated to feel guilty because adam agrees with the greatness that is justin timberlake. so there.
though no one will ever be as great as the counting crows. Current Mood: awake Current Music: insomniac music theater

06:06 am i just heard the newscaster on channel 9 use the phrase "pistol whipped." that makes me giggle.
i guess i should watch the news earlier in the day... it's much more humorous. Current Mood: amused

11:30 pm "we're a room full of girls and every guy here is gay. where's a girl supposed to find a hammer and a screwdriver?"
courtesy of heather as she destructs a cd player.
and if you leave instant messenger on without an away message, then proceed to leave the apartment, you might come back to this:
"on behalf of (your name here), her roommates have taken this opportunity to collaborate and deliberate to bring you this away message, both well-worded and concise. we'll bill you later."
and it will aptly be titled, "no away message, no problem."
just some random tidbits from 3J. stay tuned... Current Mood: working Current Music: moonlight kiss - bap kennedy

02:03 am every time i listen to the counting crows, i want to post every lyric adam duritz has ever written. but i don't, merely because it would take up too much room. that man's a genius.
so this weekend shall be crazy. i work every morning, i'm going to scrap for time to sleep, and hopefully do well on this communications paper. i think i'm going to write about the marxist theory-- utopian society and what not.
oh, and did i mention i'm going to the bronx campus tomorrow to see mos def? yeah, i'm going to go see mos def tomorrow. good thing too, i need to leave this apartment.
but other than the overwhelming amount of stress that signifies the end of the semester, i'm a really happy kid. it's all sorts of great.
cause one or two more smiles from you and I don't need anything else. Current Mood: giggly Current Music: counting crows - kid things

and i am SO buying a car the week i move home. fuck yeah.

10:48 pm me and my roommates just went outside to enjoy the nice night. it went something like this: me still in my work clothes and leopard print slippers, ashley on roller-skates, margaret in bare feet (ew, gross), and heather blowing bubbles. megan's not here-- she's on a date with the guy she met in california. :)
i'm checking into auditing my communications class. this girl who's in the same class is giving me the name of the dean to talk to. at the very least, i'm filing a complaint about the professor. word on the street is that he already has complaints on file from students here and he's been fired from 2 other universities before coming to fordham. i'd rather take the class over, then have paid money to learn nothing in this one. and it bothers me even more so because it's the intro class to my major. bah.
i'm so not stressed out anymore. that's so f'n cool. and 24 hours from now i'll be sitting at s&s. :) Current Mood: chipper

12:12 am feelin' a little less stress. i finished the english paper for today, but i didn't go to the class. maybe i'll just slip it in her mailbox tomorrow with a little note or something. next on the list is the music review that was due a week ago. whateva.
but at the present time i'm downloading so much music that i'm ashamed to even name. seriously. like, if i thought justin was shameful (though i'm perfectly fine now declaring my obsession with him) then this is cause for public humiliation. ah, guilty pleasures, how i dote thee...
'project: come home' now stands at t minus 45 hours and counting. Current Mood: guilty Current Music: wouldn't you like to know?

07:56 pm allow me to be gushy and sentimental for two seconds...
i think me and my roommates (megan and heather) have had the conversation that has sealed the deal on not being strangers anymore. the kind of conversation where you tell the bulk of your life history that all your other friends already know. a catching up conversation, of sorts. and now we have our own mini-history together that can only get better from here.
we sat last night at union square after we bought starbucks and watched the skateboarders turn their tricks. to our left was a virgin megastore, in front of us was a statue of george washington and a blinking neon "coffee" sign, and to our right was the empire state building. and of course, all around was the sound of car horns and sirens. it was the closest thing resembling the park in oxford.
i'm glad i'm rooming with these girls next year. makes everything a little easier. Current Mood: nostalgic Current Music: ryan adams - desire

05:04 pm when i left for work it was cold and raining, so i had my heavy coat and an umbrella. when i got off work, it was sunny and warm. it should stay like this-- it makes me happy.
and next weekend it's supposed to be all nice and stuff... that makes me happy too. Current Mood: pleased Current Music: evanescence - everybody's fool

10:32 pm my dad's surgery is scheduled for thursday. i guess it's not really all that big a deal as i was making out to be, but still. and it's on his neck and i think that's what worries me. i mean, he's had surgeries before, but seems a little more serious. i dunno... i just want him to get healthy again. he's missed so much work; i'm scared he's gonna lose his job. he won't, but you never know.
enough of that... i can't dwell on it too long 'cause then it starts to freak me out. so, moving on...
my evanescence cd started skipping, and i think i had a minor heart attack. but it was just a piece of dust. Current Mood: worried Current Music: chicago soundtrack - cell block tango

02:17 pm at times like these, i really appreciate having friends that are rather sedated. and by sedated, i mean they don't shriek at 2 in the afternoon.
what i wouldn't give for the chance to rip out her vocal chords... Current Mood: mischievous Current Music: shit

12:41 am *sigh* nothing like a little bit of shopping to soothe the nerves and clear the head.
i have a lot of work to do this weekend, but tonight i feel good and that's all that matters.
tomorrow should be nice as well, for it is payday. sweet. Current Mood: calm Current Music: linkin park - hit the floor

02:27 am i'm so stressed out. like to the point where i feel like curling up in the fetal position and weeping. and i'm exhausted. i want to just shut down. but i have a paper to write tonight and another to write tomorrow night.
sleep is just a huge waste of time. is it really that essential? i mean, honestly?
and why is nobody online at 2:57 in the morning?!? argh!!! Current Mood: stressed Current Music: linkin park - faint
