strange proud hope.
oh my goodness this is embarrassing but i just discovered that a fan-fiction writer that i used to read as a young, nerdy, obsessive kid went on to become a BEST-SELLING AUTHOR. wtf!
this fills me with such a strange proud hope..
i don’t know why i’m having such an extreme reaction to this but i’m so glad for her and kind of feel like i’m connected to it all. i’m...
epic nap dream
whoa. does anyone else wake up, go do something, settle down, then SUDDENLY remember their dream? i only took a nap but it was like a new mexican city in the US, or at least my fantastical idea of what that would be. AKA new brunswick. i keep passing by the same heath-ledger-esque guy except with luscious long curly hair in chocolatey brown to his jawline. he hangs around looking at a house...

and trying to show some respect by not making any jokes right now.. oh internet. sorry Hayley. don’t lend your phone to strangers / don’t make your BF’s speeddial too close to ‘40404’ / take questionable pics on your phone if you have a tendency to lose it.

Melting pot or racial divide? The growth of interracial marriages is slowing among U.S.-born Hispanics and Asians. Still, blacks are substantially more likely than before to marry whites.
The number of interracial marriages in the U.S. has risen 20 percent since 2000 to about 4.5 million, according to the latest census figures. While still growing, that number is a marked drop-off from the...

Figuring out what it is that I really want
midoriw:
…isn’t easy. On one hand I want comfort and stability. On the other, I want freedom and progress.
This tears me apart every time I think of it.
Yeah, I am broken jaggedly in two along these lines.
dial 777 lucky.
i feel so much more myself around other people, my friends. i get so lost in something that never existed when i’m alone.
and how do we let ourselves settle for the vapid after feeling what’s real? everyone else seems to get over this so easily.. i can’t.
A summer day in my life.

The politics of the pocket « This Wicked Day
First of all, my business suits have pockets. My jeans have pockets. Even some of my mini skirts have pockets. Some of my dresses have pockets, etc etc… I use them, and they serve me well.
But let’s be honest - Fashion has never…

if it’s darn hot outside but a rather nice temperature inside.. don’t open all the windows and blinds.. for real.
i’ll allow that it’s probably cooler downstairs than up there.. but if you want to feel a breeze you’re not gonna get it from the windows by my room!

I feel like the more ubiquitous a song is, the less we think about the lyrics over the years.. Kiss From a Rose is a pretty epic jam.

Being Bad at Relationships Is Good for Survival →
Oh my god please stop reinforcing craziness.
Feeling happy and secure in our relationships is a goal many people strive for, but in times of need the emotionally insecure partners may be doing us a favor by being more alert to possible danger.
Evolution may have shaped us to consist of groups of emotionally secure and insecure individuals, researchers write in the March issue of the journal...
the pedestal of the oddest.
i feel like i can’t be both so judgmental and so naive.. why do i believe everything i hear? and also, how can i both love sarcasm and be that gullible at the same time? i just don’t make much sense most of the time. luckily most people aren’t around me most of the time and don’t catch on to this.
oh hello cute boy with headphones in computer lab peeping over my shoulder at the sweet mix i’m making. made me realize i still listen to a bunch of music “no one”s ever heard of ha. wish you were more curiouss.. =)

I’ve been listening to this archive of English-language accents instead of writing my paper. I have no way to justify this other than to say it is really interesting.
it’s hard to read and listen to a lecture at the same time.. i think i’m giving myself permission to play solitaire while listening to these recordings ha
