| Why the fuck do I care about knowing Chinese when I'm just going to be reminded of how clumsy, ugly, and dumb I am in two languages?

| I declare hiatus (again).
Xanga's not useful to me anymore.
I will not delete my account although it's my first instinct. To do so is analogous to smashing your reflection in the mirror because you can't stand the cracks/flaws.
To anyone who sees this, best wishes with your hopes and dreams.
Signing off,
Ali

| In a fit of insomnia, I have made the discovery that someone found my xanga page through googling my fwend and googling "joe zurat."
Google's really softened up you stalkers, hasn't it? But I think I know what you guys were looking for. My fwend Leslie is indeed very very hot and very much in love with this amazing man who fixed my $900 computer! "joe zurat" is probably engaged.
Also, facebook is where it's at. Go stalk them there. But not Leslie because she's had to make her page private owing to a flood of soulful, but clingy guys trying to hook up with her.
Why am I up this goddamned early, you may ask?
I was watching Princess Bride and OH MY GOD. Cary Elwes. Your blue eyes set my blood on fire. It made me flash back to my first embarrassing physical attraction to someone in high school. Technically, my first crush was Erich Dress (who had/has a boyfriend at some point). But I'm thinking of the piercing blue eyes and the rash blond hair that REALLY got my attention!
More on this when I get some sleep. I'm waxing all sorts of nostalgic.

| I really want to start working within 2 weeks. My bank account's all
empty and neglected. I'm really afraid of balancing my checkbook this
week. It really sucks to be 21. It really, really
suuuuuUUUUUuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucks.
On a mondo embarrassing note,
my cute floral skirt betrayed me. A tiny breeze and my unsexy beige
underoos flashed a couple drivers on Erie and Castor. My unmarried
body was exposed, boo hoo hoo.
Half
of my family is moving to Philly in less than a week. I have that much
time to throw out garbage, bleach every surface, and bring the smack
down on the cockroaches hiding in my apartment... even though I know
it'll be a cold day in July before I see that security deposit again.
Maybe I should do Dungeons and Dragons again... sadly, this is my next available option for meeting new people.
Also heard that M. Night Shyamalan took Avatar the Last Airbender movie and made it into the 10th circle of hell. Confirmation? | | |
| Hey,
In the future, I'll lessen the emotional slant I type
about my man since it's too upsetting. Please understand I dramatize
heartache and anger to the fullest textual extent because I'm purging
99.9% of it from my mind. I didn't have heartache or anger to purge
until he moved away. He's a lovable man. We took about a week to work through our
problems. I'm saying this to
counteract the villainous portrait of "callous asshole" I've painted
of him. Growing experience over. Can we scuff dirt over it and forget
that happened to me?
My appalling reading choices are a symptom
of America's literacy on the decline. Pride and Prejudice and Zombies.
Tamora Pierce's Circle of Magic series. Terry Pratchett's Nac Mac
Feegle series. Grimm Fairy Tales comic book Volume 3.
Last book
I read that re-oriented my moral compass was Jane Eyre. She taught me
that living with a man in sin ruins your self-esteem. It's better to
starve than shack up with a man on unequal financial and emotional
terms.
Maybe Dorothy Parker counts? She taught me that you can
take your sarcastic cynicism too far... to the day you die alone and
marinaded in alcohol.
Neil Gaiman caused me to reconsider the
power of belief with "American Gods." I've always suspected that
organized religion is deceitful, intangible, and pointless. And so is
the Internet. Both are upheld by the masses, but the I'm betting that the masses would sooner lynch you with an ethernet cable if you were a virtual terrorist bent on permanently taking all humans offline.
I really want to read "How to Win Friends and Influence People." I heard that it's not actually about sucking up.
Anyone got shit to read? | | |
