and the world keeps on turning...

my most recent discovery is that if you get no sleep at all, staying awake is considerable harder. i know this doesn't really seem like brilliance to any of you with normal sleep patterns, but to us young deluded ones, this is still somewhat of an enlightenment. you would think after my first year with jenny when we stayed up every night until four that i would have learned my lesson. however, in the wee hours of monday morning all semblance of normal human logic fled my roommate and i and we found ourselves watching the sun come up. somewhere around 7:30am my roommate remembered that she had a midterm to study for. around 8 i decided that it was a good time as any to take a quick nap before class that afternoon. unfortunately for me (or my teacher depending how you look at it) he had decided to bring in a movie that day to show us something about the acting of shakespeare. i was asleep in minutes. it was quite educational i must confess.
i have come to the conclusion that i will be in college for the rest of my life, or for the next ten years, which ever one comes first. the other realization that i have come to day is that shirley jackson is an extremely disturbing author. we just read a story of hers today in class, and its all about the town that they have a town lottery once a year and one person is picked and then they stone them to death!!! are you disturbed? im disturbed.
i have decided that break dancing is the most attractive thing ever. guys look very good when they are break dancing. the guy i marry must know how to break dance. or be willing to learn how. i need lots and lots of break dancing.
so now my friends, romans, and countrymen, i must bid a sad farewell, for the great and powerful shower beckons me and i am helpless to resist. ciao.

How do these writers get published?

If I stoned Starlight to death instead of sending her to--I mean, errm, doing whatever it is I do to her at the end (not that anyone reading this will care if I ruin the ending for them), would I get published too?

I'm telling you, it's your years catching up with you. You'll be going to bed at eight and sleeping for twelve hours before you know it.

By the way, you're allowed to read my journal, too. I believe you may find it equally enlightening.

Hinting? Me? Something?

How dare you.
