when i spend the last fourteen hours slacking off instead of writing the essay and now that i sit down to actually truthfully do it im getting good ideas and it's all like "huh i should have fucking done this at noon yesterday so i could be sleeping right now dreaming of the microeconomics midterm being moved back and sex"
they were one of the best live acts i've ever seen
the whole crowd was full of long-time fans it seemed
they could actually do entire songs without singing a damn word and just have the crowd do it
but, man, it was wonderful to hear them live
shit, that was almost 4 years ago now
plus they finished up the night with the opening notes to stairway to heaven, classy motherfuckers
It seems like american poets really hit their peak with romanticism, which really isn't saying much because even that kinda sucked.
Ever since then they've just been getting more whiny and obsessed with "breaking the mold". Hey guys I know you're mad that people don't memorize and recite the Odyssey anymore like ancient Greeks did but not using electricity in your house doesn't make you anything more than an athiestic amish person, yes E. E. Cummings I am looking at you

It's not that they hit their peak, it's the fact that the Canon is always behind by about 100 years. You get all these old farts who remember back when Hemingway was still the young upstart, and they figure that's where literature stops. Same thing with poetry. That's why whenever I brought up Bukowski in any of my Master's classes, people looked at me like my face was turning purple, or like I had just suggested that we gang rape their mothers with a hot tailpipe off of a 1957 Chevy. The Academics get so wrapped up in their ideas of what is and isn't literature that they never try anything outside the "accepted" boundaries of the Academic Canon. That's why for many English departments, 20th Century literature ends with The Old Man and the Sea and poetry ends with Robert Frost and Maya Angelou.
have i mentioned my considerable dislike for Ibsen's A Doll's House?
Cause damn
Ghosts wasn't much better, let me tell you what.
I've only met one person who liked Ibsen, and he was the self-proclaimed "Anti-Theatre Theatre Major."
He now runs a KFC in Schenectady.
why do schools keep using A Doll's House
god what a drawn out piece of shit
I liked A Doll's House. But then again, I liked most things in my AP Humanities/Literature class. I even liked Walden, which the class consensus was that it was the most boring and pointless book we had to read. The Stranger was pretty intense, even though the translation we used was very dry. It was the only area I was really excelling at (good grades), and enjoying in high school. That, and graphics design.
I still went on to be a comp-sci major anyway. O_o
you could have typed HUUUUUUUUURURRURRGRHHGHGHGHGGPHPHHPPHPHPP and then posted a link to a video of you cramming mashed peas up your nose and then shitting your pants and it would have been a less retarded post
This caused me to spit my coffee all over my flat screen monitor, and also I got a little on my shirt.

i am perfectly okay with that
when i spend the last fourteen hours slacking off instead of writing the essay and now that i sit down to actually truthfully do it im getting good ideas and it's all like "huh i should have fucking done this at noon yesterday so i could be sleeping right now dreaming of the microeconomics midterm being moved back and sex"
and yet
clearly my future is bright
of course it will be a first draft
and i dont actually have to give it in
but the prof will look at it and i need five pages of something
i once did that to buy myself a day for a homework assignment
turned in the previous assignment, claimed it to be an accident, and turned in the real one the next day after i did it
i wish that shit still worked
To be fair, it's a relatively fun topic to write about, and pretty easy since I have all of my sources in various firefox tabs.
But still.
edit: oh yeah I have a draft for a 15 page junior paper due friday. Yeah, haven't started that yet.
now i really want to listen to third eye blind
but i also want to go to bed
damn you
The first time my sig has actually had a point or influenced someone ever, and probably the last time too.
Miss jones taught me english but I think I just shot her son
'cause he owed money with a bullet in the chest you cannot ruuuuun
i can't use you for anything you suck
other thoughts running through my mind that take turns overshadowing my schoolwork:
1) i wonder how cheap i can get a wired 360 controller
2) i gotta shave my crappy stache tomorrow before it turns into a pedo stache
3) yay paycheck hello ipod
4) gosh my wallet is thick
5) microeco....fuck microeconomics
6) busi....fuck intro to business
7) my neck is kinda sore
8) my new foam pillow is pretty huggable i should go hug it

then
"by 6, seven hours, awesome"
"by 7, six hours, that'll do."
"by 8...oh god sunshine....whatever, five hours is ok."
and then its noon and youre finished and then you slit your wrists

Sometimes I wake up hugging my foam pillow. Fuck goose down, foam all the way.
Why am I thinking about this sort of thing?
Oh, hey, I have to wake up in about 3 hours.
Hmm.
You need to expand your horizons a bit more.
