ALL I WANT IS SOME SLEEP.

 

2 days until Spring Break, yo.

This Saturday.

Hopped onto the metro to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum for orientation today. The lecture really got me thinking. Does society want change for the future? How can we, the youth, instill a better sense of community, one without prejudice, war, murder? It shocks me how television shows like Tila Tequila, Real Chance of Love, Flava Flav, etc., have become so popular with the current generation. Have we really succumbed to such mass media? I would understand if these stars of such shows were brilliant actors...or at least set an example for the many teens who tune in their shows, but they have none of the talent. Such shows are...kind of pointless, don't you think? Maybe we should all tune into the History Channel, Discovery, Planet Green, and Biography to grasp the past, and move on into the future with a new sense of "being".

Riding the metro to lunch. My expression = priceless.

Being amazingly nerdy- reading Grapes of Wrath on the way back.

Move over, Martha.

Hi. I cooled off completely through the week and this weekend. I think I'm feeling much better. Especially since an exciting event is coming up! I'm throwing a Pi Day Party next Sunday. Epic, I know. I'm pulling on my nerdy get-up (Ivy League shirt, suspenders, high-socks, dad's 80's thick-rimmed glass...the works), and also baking pies, brownies, cookies (with Easter cookie cutters which I purchased today!!). Is it normal to be this excited? I think not. But then again, I've never been normal. 

You know those haute couture garments you pull so much inspiration from (but would never dare to wear)? In light of things, I've found some completely amazing finds through Etsy that would make me feel Martha-esque. My rad baking skills will leave everyone speechless.

I'm off to watch Food Network (and perhaps a tidbit of the Oscars). Chao.

Bad Day.

by Roy Lichtenstein.

Having the worst day in quite a while. Hopefully tomorrow will be better.

Surely I'm not the only one who has ever come to crossroads in their live. But this time, I feel like such a quitter. I feel like I can never amount to anything in my life because I always quit, and I never ever try hard enough in anything. You know those inspirational phrases speak of fighting until the end? And all the entrepreneurs who have spent countless years pursuing a dream? Well, I feel like even if life hands me lemonade, I still could not bare myself to drink it. I'm stuck in this knot, the strongest, most difficult knot I've ever experienced. And I feel like I can never untangle my life, like I can never start over again. It is so difficult to stand up and dust myself off when I'm so disappointed in myself in the first place.What can I do? I feel so exhausted.
