Since I was like 14 or so I started saying I wouldn't live to see my 25th birthday... I mean the life style I lead, mixed with my already horrible luck combined with entire warehouse worth of *** I give over 'eating right'.. I just didn't expect to live this long.
I really just can't see me having a future, I kinda just drift through life and I'm more or less okay with that, why is it easier to imagine that I'll be dead relatively soon than it is to imagine me having any real future?
I didn't figure you actually meant me. But the person I normally talk with through email hasn't been around lately, so I've been feeling extra chatty on here and was looking for an excuse to make people talk to me. :o
Oh. Well, it worked! Do you feel accomplished now? :3
Not sure accomplished is the right word. But I am finally feeling sleepy, and since my goal was to keep busy talking to people until I was sleepy... I suppose it did accomplish something.
Also, your use of :3 at the end just made me miss the person I was talking about (more than I already did). /sigh and whatnot, I suppose.
Night, everyone.
Sorry? :[
It's okay. :) Just kind of funny to realize the little things you associate with a specific person, I guess.
Rough draft isn't due til next Thursday.
I've been getting sources and had to write an annotated bibliography, which I've finished.
This weekend I'll reread HoD, then next week on Tuesday I'll reread it again and note what I need in passage.
I will then reread and note my sources and Wednesday night I'll word vomit a 3 page RD. (Rough Draft due Thursday in class)
I'll get that back on Monday and then spend the next 3 days torturing Mag with drafts until I get one we both agree looks good and submit it before it's due Thursday at Midnight. (14 days and 21.5 hours away)

Probably because most of us don't want to imagine nor plan for the degrading nature of getting old. We don't want to see our selves writing bucket lists, let alone having the intent of fulfilling them.
I too would be more content with a short and fulfilling life of taking risks and letting the chips fall where they may, than essentially panning out the years and coasting through it with the comfort of repetition and the security of the mundane.
I really enjoy proofreading these papers, and it's great practice for when I become a teacher and have to grade. I'm excited to see what you come up with.

I really appreciate it. Last quarter I was writing narratives and could have my sister proof read for grammar. But this quarter is more literary analysis and it helps a lot of have someone educated in the literary field proof read them. It's even better since you've read 2 of the pieces I'm covering and can offer insight that I know she can't.
It helps me a lot since I consider writing to be my weak point academically. At least it was when I was younger. I seem to have become a bit more wordy and more capable of expressing myself in text. I accredit that to posting so much on this forum though. xD
I'm just happy that the writings now are literary analysis because I can pick thing I know and have read before, because of that I'm able to get a quality paper that meets length requirements.
Finally got the face for my Zelda character down. Looks surprisingly good. And for once I'll actually see her face throughout the game since I'll be wearing an enchanted circlet instead of a helmet.
Game of Thrones (I'd like to rewatch the first season before starting the second), and The Road. I've read the book but never seen the movie. Been jonesing for some post apocalyptic or dystopian story.
For some reason Kubrick films came to mind:
Spartacus, Lolita, Dr. Strangelove, 2001: A Space Odyssey, A Clockwork Orange, etc.
y u no mention Full Metal Jacket!?
Because I stopped typing lol.
I also forgot to mention The Shining >.>;
And I have to confess, I never saw Eyes Wide Shut. I suppose Tom Cruise in combination with the premise revolving around orgies, kinda scared me away from it.
I never saw Eyes Wide Shut either Art, but Nicole Kidman looks amazing in that movie. I saw scenes here and there, but the story didn't really grab me.
This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
