  <description>&lt;a name=&quot;cutid1&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am nothing but a shell of the man i once was&lt;br /&gt; so you could put me to your ear&lt;br /&gt; and actually &lt;em&gt;hear &lt;/em&gt; yester-&lt;em&gt;year&apos;s&lt;/em&gt; ocean&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt; I was in&lt;em&gt; shape&lt;/em&gt;, then&lt;br /&gt; A much better built body&lt;br /&gt; Of water with infinite waves&lt;br /&gt; and fathomless depths&lt;br /&gt; where you could have gone deep-sea fishing for compliments&lt;br /&gt; and caught plentiful schools of reassuring comments&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt; Now all you get is the boot&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt; You fell for the bait and got &lt;em&gt;hooked &lt;/em&gt;on what you &lt;em&gt;thought&lt;/em&gt; i .was.&lt;br /&gt; Now we&apos;re both struggling to win this tug of war of the worlds&lt;br /&gt; Where we &lt;em&gt;breath&lt;/em&gt; the same air it&apos;s just &lt;em&gt;done&lt;/em&gt; differently.&lt;br /&gt; And I&apos;m trying to figure out ways to have comfortably survive outside your element&lt;br /&gt; Compromising intelligence&lt;br /&gt; I dabbled in watered-down thoughts that &lt;br /&gt; Filtered&lt;em&gt; in&lt;/em&gt; from main-stream.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;em&gt;I&apos;m&lt;/em&gt; offering &lt;em&gt;mind-&lt;/em&gt;altering ideas that make the most quiet nature brain&lt;br /&gt; &lt;em&gt;Scream&lt;/em&gt; from exposure to the types of things that&lt;br /&gt;won&apos;t necessarily make you happier&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt; They&apos;ll just give you a greater range of emotions &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt; And I can feel myself getting &lt;em&gt;lur&lt;/em&gt;ed into deeper oceans of &lt;br /&gt; Fantasy lands &lt;br /&gt; Where people think they&apos;re as safe as cartoons &lt;br /&gt; Simply because they speak in bubbles.&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt; A sanitized &lt;em&gt;safe&lt;/em&gt;-haven &lt;br /&gt; Where you could &lt;em&gt;face&lt;/em&gt; Satan and &lt;br /&gt; Have his &lt;em&gt;faith&lt;/em&gt; straightened.&lt;br /&gt; His new goal would be to &lt;em&gt;det&lt;/em&gt;hrone Poseidon and &lt;br /&gt; Have Neptunes &lt;em&gt;place&lt;/em&gt; taken. &lt;br /&gt; They&apos;d swash-buckled with their pitchforks&lt;br /&gt; While Lucifer shit talks and rips&lt;br /&gt; Thoughts of coral reefs &lt;br /&gt; For relief he&apos;d be like &amp;quot;bitch, walk&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt; From this oversize aquarium that daddy kept cleanly&lt;br /&gt; To unhealthy degrees&lt;br /&gt; Writing suicide notes with invisible ink&lt;br /&gt; On transparencies&lt;br /&gt; And &lt;em&gt;pos&lt;/em&gt;ting them to the glass boundaries that&lt;br /&gt; Surround the seas of change.&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt; Strangely enough, while bringing back the reel ........&lt;br /&gt; I could sense intense resistence&lt;br /&gt; So I had no other choice &lt;br /&gt; but to cut the line. I&apos;m not &lt;br /&gt; saying you&apos;re overly naive &lt;br /&gt; I just think you should get into the habit of checking to see when &lt;em&gt;strings&lt;/em&gt; are attached.&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt; Fortunate for you I&apos;m compassionate enough &lt;br /&gt; To throw back what I catch&lt;br /&gt; If its underdeveloped &lt;br /&gt; And needs time to grow; though &lt;br /&gt; I&apos;m remorseful of the pain I&apos;ve caused you.&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt; And I want to kiss your lips better. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; I sympathise with the sorrow by &lt;br /&gt; Stroking the scar of my own traumatic experience with &lt;br /&gt; My excommunicated tongue.&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt; See I know exactly what you mean when you say &lt;br /&gt; I&lt;em&gt; hurts &lt;/em&gt;to much to talk. &lt;br /&gt; I&apos;ve &lt;em&gt;been &lt;/em&gt;there. &lt;br /&gt; I don&apos;t &lt;em&gt;plan&lt;/em&gt; on returning &apos;cause&lt;br /&gt; No matter how much of a distance I kept &lt;br /&gt; Or how long I waited for my wounds to heal&lt;br /&gt; They&apos;d re-open with the slightest &lt;em&gt;flash&lt;/em&gt;-back&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; So I sued &lt;em&gt;time &lt;/em&gt;for mal-practice&lt;br /&gt; That bastard&apos;s a hack with a &lt;br /&gt; Rusty scalpel and &lt;br /&gt; Barbed-wire stitched thread.&lt;br /&gt; Instead of seeing things clearly &lt;br /&gt; They&apos;re pitch red and there&apos;s this glitch in my head &lt;br /&gt; That&apos;s got me thinking contradictions&lt;br /&gt; It said: &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt; &amp;quot;There are more fish in the sea! &lt;br /&gt; Whether you hear me not,&lt;br /&gt; Or you listen to me.&lt;br /&gt; Whether you listen to me or &lt;br /&gt; Hear me not!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt; There are more micro-organisms in my teardrop.&lt;br /&gt; But fear not&lt;br /&gt; I&apos;d never sink as low as to &lt;br /&gt; Make my &lt;em&gt;ears&lt;/em&gt; pop. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt; And I imagine now you only want to swim with members of your own &lt;em&gt;league &lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt; And &lt;em&gt;don&apos;t need&lt;/em&gt; me &lt;br /&gt; Meddling&lt;br /&gt; Sending sonar signals&lt;br /&gt; High-pitched notes or symbols.&lt;br /&gt; My voice is thrown far but ripples are only caused when you cast stones &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt; But you shouldn&apos;t throw rocks&lt;br /&gt; If you live in &lt;br /&gt;fragile fairytales.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; See when you put a shell to your ear &lt;br /&gt; It is not the sound of crashing waves you&apos;re hearing &lt;br /&gt; It&apos;s the amplified current of your bloodstream&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt; It was your self pulse that created that &lt;br /&gt; False human illusion of me. &lt;br /&gt; Your tireless heart pumping &lt;br /&gt; Out &lt;br /&gt; An ocean of lies &lt;br /&gt; And I foolishly tried &lt;br /&gt; Filling impossible shoes&lt;br /&gt; Resulting in my stumbleing &lt;br /&gt; As I fell into the trap of making a women my element &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt; Now I just can&apos;t get comfortable being out of you.</description>

  <description>&amp;quot;People who imagine that history [his-story] flatters them (as it does, indeed, since they wrote it) are impaled on their history like a butterfly on a pin and become incapable of seeing or changing themselves, or the world.&amp;nbsp; This is the place in which it seems to me, most white Americans find themselves.&amp;nbsp; Impaled.&amp;nbsp; They are dimly, or vividly, aware that the history they have fed themselves is mainly a lie, but they do not know how to release themselves from it, and they suffer enormously from the resulting personal incoherence.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;- James Baldwin, &amp;quot;The White Man&apos;s Guilt&amp;quot; August 1965</description>

  <description>I am at the computer lab in the Broadway Building at school.&amp;nbsp; I have been sneezing silently and I think it looks like I am having small seizures.&amp;nbsp; Spanish composition was a success.&amp;nbsp; I am trying to write and write and write so I can keep my promise to Tara but it seems that inspiration is hard for me to absorb.&amp;nbsp; Finished reading A&amp;nbsp;Wild Sheep Chase by&lt;b&gt; &lt;/b&gt;Haruki Murakami, it was &amp;quot;easily accessible, yet profoundly complex&amp;quot;.&amp;nbsp; Well, off to take my second exam of the day, then to start work on a group presentation, then home and then maybe to a friend&apos;s house to watch Visitor Q.</description>

  <description>Two updates within the hour, what a load.  But after re-reading posts, I decided I better post a current thought so that in the future I can continue to read my &apos;old&apos; lj.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: small;&quot;&gt;So I will continue with a good old bullet list of my current affairs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: small;&quot;&gt;I&amp;nbsp;enjoy receiving personalized book reviews, honestly not because I&amp;nbsp;need to add to my &amp;quot;to-read&amp;quot; list, but because I&amp;nbsp;really enjoy hearing what books the people i love loved.&amp;nbsp; And bonus when I&amp;nbsp;read them I&amp;nbsp;think about why you loved it and it is a window to your brain.&amp;nbsp; I&amp;nbsp;also think about what made you recommend it to me, what did you think was the connection between myself and that book? and then I&amp;nbsp;can gauge how I&amp;nbsp;am perceived by others.&amp;nbsp; For these same reasons, I&amp;nbsp;love recommending things.&amp;nbsp; Which I&amp;nbsp;guess is another reason I&amp;nbsp;love giving and receiving gifts.&amp;nbsp; So in essence, I view personalized book reviews as a gift&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: small;&quot;&gt;I&amp;nbsp;have a netflix account&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: small;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;padding: 5px; background-color: white;&quot;&gt;http://www.netflix.com/BeMyFriend/P6KrGujVHEQad4zfumBQ&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;so add me if you do too!&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: small;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;padding: 5px; background-color: white;&quot;&gt;School is not as exciting this quarter as it will be in the near future&lt;/span&gt;.&amp;nbsp; I&amp;nbsp;am soon meeting with a Women&apos;s Studies advisor to plan my future super rock-on, get me excited about education, classes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: small;&quot;&gt;This quarter I&amp;nbsp;have, Microeconomics, Spanish 201, and Intro to Community Health&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: small;&quot;&gt;The people in P-land are much more willing to make friends with me than the people in Les Bois&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: small;&quot;&gt;I&amp;nbsp;am trying to read as much as my schedule allows&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: small;&quot;&gt;I just ran out of coffee :( :( :(&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: small;&quot;&gt;I&amp;nbsp;take the MAX&amp;nbsp;line to school and to work.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: small;&quot;&gt;We are moving soon&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: small;&quot;&gt;I am in need of furniture&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and i am LATE&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;</description>

  <description>I just read this and fell in love with myself.  Is that wrong?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a name=&quot;cutid1&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have two cats and live in a &lt;i&gt;very&lt;/i&gt; small apartment.  I am, however, proud of my apartment because it is my own.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am proud of my cats for the same reasons.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I like socks, notably soft with strange patterns, prints or materials.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I smoke: clove cigarettes and the ganja, both irregularly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I drink; fruit beer and the beer Sean and his roommate make in their kitchen&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I read; mainly poetry, erotica, feminist zines, and highly wordy novels. I am jealous of the authors&apos; abilities to write gracefully and originally.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I listen to a lot of music. I like Jolie Holland, My Brightest Diamond, and Aceyalone. I will not discuss further because I hate when others do. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I highly enjoy all things feminist and find the word to be very misunderstood, which interests me more.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have two jobs, one is my passion for life at the moment, the other is simply a paycheck. I work full time, 40 to 50 hours a week&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I go to school. I am taking Spanish, Calculus, and Logic. I took calculus and logic last year and failed both, I currently have A&apos;s in both.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In fact, I failed my whole spring semester, all 15 credits. I moved out of a dead relationship and into a very alive one. My grandmother died and I played violin at her funeral. I wrote letters to family and friends, all of which went un-responded too, except the one to my older sister Carrie. I spent the semester getting to know Sean, redecorating my *new* apartment, and walking up and down the greenbelt.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I took 3 summer classes and got straight A&apos;s.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My english teacher became somewhat of a mentor.  He challenged my ideas and required me to vocalize my opinions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sean is, very much so, more than a &amp;quot;boyfriend&amp;quot;. Actually I find it very hard to describe our relationship, other than it is like nothing I have ever experienced.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I hate this city, the reasons I moved here. A few good things of come of it though, mainly finding myself through isolation, meeting Sean, and working at the WC.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I miss a lot of people; my grandpa, my mom, peep, carrie, my dad, my nieces, Sarah, Tara, Courtney, Rachael, Kayla, Lynnly, Angie Munoz, even Tony.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I sit in the bathroom with my lights off and spy on my neighbors.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wish I was a lot of things&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One of my best friends is Charity, my partner at work. She is amazingly honest. It is people like her that I would have never had met if it weren&apos;t for the women&apos;s center.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anais Nin and I share the same birthday&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My favorite season is the current season, whatever it may be. (upon reflection, it is always the NEXT season, whatever that may be)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am going to Prague this summer for six weeks&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am moving to Portland next fall to attend Portland State University and to enjoy the (relatively) large feminist population.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My journal is post-dated to the year 2013&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That is all :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Re-reading my old thoughts makes think I do have some off handed chance at becoming a writer some day, if I really focused on it.&lt;br /&gt;</description>

  <title>Life Update</title>
  <link>http://hype-city.livejournal.com/75206.html</link>
  <description>I&amp;nbsp;don&apos;t know how many people are into reading LJ these days, but one-on-one communication is wavering and I&amp;nbsp;feel the need to write about my personal current events.&amp;nbsp; I have become the friend that no one knows what the hell is doing because I&amp;nbsp;lack phone skills and live in another state, so if curiosity strikes you, read on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Upon returning to the good old USA from Prague, I&amp;nbsp;opted not to work and sat on my ass for a month before finally leaving Les Bois and moving to my new third favorite city, Portland.&amp;nbsp; Sean and I&amp;nbsp;found an apartment that holds no attitude, flare, or charm, but at least it is somewhere to live for the time being.&amp;nbsp; For the first 20 days, work was impossible to find and after many frustrating &amp;quot;I&amp;nbsp;am going to be homeless and starving because I have no money&amp;quot; thoughts, I&amp;nbsp;have finally found work at my local Starbucks.&amp;nbsp; This is not bad and it feeds my love of coffee steadily. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;Sean is working at a Thia restaurant until he finds a career in his field of public administration.&amp;nbsp; We have met some interesting characters and have a new roommate moving in on Saturday.&amp;nbsp; This will be a big money saver and will ease much of the current stresses.&amp;nbsp; His name is Sid and he was born in Spain, raised in France.&amp;nbsp; He moved to New York city a year ago and moved to Portland 3 months ago.&amp;nbsp; He is inteligent and enjoys the finer things in life so it should work out just fine.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I&amp;nbsp;have decided to double major in Women&apos;s Studies and Community Development, so it should take me another 5 years to get a BA.&amp;nbsp; I&amp;nbsp;plan to be patient and enjoy education at its finest&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I just finished reading Even Cowgirls Get the Blues by Tom Robbins and highly recomend it to anyone looking for a quirky, witty, inteligent, and philosophical fiction novel. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I</description>

  <description>Well, I&apos;ve been back in Les Bois for almost three weeks and it already seems like a lifetime.&amp;nbsp; We&apos;re moving in a week.&amp;nbsp; Found a two-bedroom off of Division St in Portland.&amp;nbsp; It is a nice apartment but will only be temporary.&amp;nbsp; In a couple of months we will be moving again into a neighborhood with more character.&amp;nbsp; After visiting Portland last week I am in love.&amp;nbsp; Money is tight and all that shit but the new surroundings will alleviate my soul.</description>
