Current mood: thirsty
Music: madonna.. dont ask
Subject: this type of modern life.. is it for me?
came across a good poem... its called futility (our favorite subject, aintit?)


Oh, I have tried to laugh the pain away,
Let new flames brush my love-springs like a feather.
But the old fever seizes me to-day,
As sickness grips a soul in wretched weather.
I have given up myself to every urge,
With not a care of precious powers spent,
Have bared my body to the strangest scourge,
To soothe and deaden my heart's unhealing rent.
But you have torn a nerve out of my frame,
A gut that no physician can replace,
And reft my life of happiness and aim.
Oh what new purpose shall I now embrace?
What substance hold, what lovely form pursue,
When my thought burns through everything to you?

my thoughts exactly.. hmm.. well i tried working on my research paper.. didnt work out too well. tomorrow im goin to eaglettes tryouts w/ lizzy.. should be interesting. i went to d&b w/ J A C K I E on friday.. fun stuff. happy bday! umm my brother came home.. kinda happy about that.. my parents were starting to drive me insane. i wish i was at olympic heights tomorrow... theyre having a walk out in protest of the budget cuts.. good for them.
im gonna start a lil 'what i learned' corner of my journal.. lol here goes..
i learned that procrastination REALLY REALLY REALLY does suck. NOT the smart choice... and if ya'll are already chronic procrastinators then maybe i cant change ur mind.. but i learned my lesson this weekend witht he damn research project. alrighty.. time to go kids.. hasta
