mittens, Tuesday, 20 July 2010 02:30 (fifteen years ago)

lene lovage (elmo argonaut), Tuesday, 20 July 2010 02:30 (fifteen years ago)

if you're the same level as you were ten years ago, you're doing better than a lot of people

iatee, Tuesday, 20 July 2010 02:31 (fifteen years ago)

wait unless you're 18

iatee, Tuesday, 20 July 2010 02:31 (fifteen years ago)

Lene: think i'm dumb because I read a lot of random shit and forget it about ten seconds later. My vocab is terrible. Feel bad because all I can cling to is that I'm academically more successful than most, yet I feel damn stupid these days

iatee, Tuesday, 20 July 2010 02:35 (fifteen years ago)

i love how UK University = doing nothing and cramming for two days and getting a 2:1

but i feel sad and im like "WHAT DOES IT ALL MEAN" a lot

mittens, Tuesday, 20 July 2010 02:38 (fifteen years ago)

I heard you learn that on your 34th birthday

iatee, Tuesday, 20 July 2010 02:39 (fifteen years ago)

I really, really need to get my reading skills up to scale before I get to graduate school. I even talked to a psychologist about doing some learning assessment tests, but sort of forgot about that since.

Achh, why must reading be so hard!

Mordy, Tuesday, 20 July 2010 02:50 (fifteen years ago)

Have you considered getting glasses?

glasses are for nerds

yes. this fall, you should take your talents to the windy city:

Pitchfork is looking for writers to review new albums and tracks on a freelance basis. Candidates should have a deep knowledge of music past and present, with a particular interest in emerging artists, and must be able to communicate ideas clearly with a unique and engaging voice.

Daniel, Esq., Tuesday, 20 July 2010 02:52 (fifteen years ago)

mordy, sarah palin is a conservative and therefore stupid. im liberal, save the pedos

mittens, Tuesday, 20 July 2010 02:52 (fifteen years ago)

thanks daniel esq

mittens, Tuesday, 20 July 2010 02:53 (fifteen years ago)

good luck, gov. romney.

Daniel, Esq., Tuesday, 20 July 2010 02:54 (fifteen years ago)

read books. do crossword puzzles and word jumbles. try to write in a journal.

but seriously, reading books every day is of utmost importance, imho. today i finished one book, continued reading another one that i'd started, and also found myself engrossed in the April 2010 issue of Harper's. and i'll probably read more when i am falling asleep. so.

Daniel, Esq., Tuesday, 20 July 2010 02:59 (fifteen years ago)

it's the eye shadow that does it.

stylish and classy.

Daniel, Esq., Tuesday, 20 July 2010 02:59 (fifteen years ago)

it's definitely her extreme boobs that do it for me, man they are big and hot

1967 Dragnet episode (Z S), Tuesday, 20 July 2010 03:00 (fifteen years ago)

there are some real gems in that video, i think.

esp. "Sometimes before I go to work (as a stripper), I like to pump myself up by crying over my master's degree." <----biggest truthbomb ever.

The Portrait of a Lady of BJs (the table is the table), Tuesday, 20 July 2010 03:00 (fifteen years ago)

lol - t - was just talking to a mutual friend last night about a friend of his who moved to DC after graduation to work with an NGO but ended up being a stripper instead.

sarahel, Tuesday, 20 July 2010 03:03 (fifteen years ago)

sometimes i cry clutching my master's degree, too.

Daniel, Esq., Tuesday, 20 July 2010 03:05 (fifteen years ago)

i mean, i like write twitter updates and facebook things for a fashion company, so it's not like i'm totally in some degrading situation, but when i was working that coffeeshop job for a while, i wanted to punch the world in the face. especially when some rich berkeley fuck mis-pronounced "nicoise." get a fucking clue.

^^^^ Why I didn't bother getting a master's degree.

perhaps a little bit of a handful, tho. and too much cussing!
