Insert witty title here
I feel that I still have yet to post anything meaningful. No cute little cartoons that you have to see, not really insightful quotes that you have to read, I think it's cause I haven't found my groove yet. It'll come....
But in the mean time...
So, I was hypnotized today. Yes, it was as wierd as it sounds. Relaxing, but wierd. Don't ask why (it's a terribly long story and too private even for my blog that no one should read). Bottom line is, I got hypnotized, it was wierd, but if you ever get the chance, you should try it. Now, I'm not talking about that guy who came to your highschool and made you look like an idiot infront of hundreds of people, this was cool - well, I thought it was cool. I better stop before I look like more of an idiot than I actually am.
Oh, and I bought candy canes today. Yay Christmas time!! I can't wait to go home for the holidays. I'm heading to Cincinnati in 2 days but it's only for a couple of days. I'm a sucker, but I really miss my parents. I think it's because I can't just go home and see them anymore. I think it's also because almost everyone I care about has left this crazy place and all I'm left with are a bunch of replacement first years who I can't really hang out with - AND with work & other stuff, I can barely see the people who are left here.
Ah, that which is my life
Dammit
So I just had this long, beautifully written post and I pressed a button to insert a picture, and it disappeared. Story of my life! Well, at least I can pretend it was beautifully written - it was more about feeling angsty again, but I think it's because I live with 20 18-year-olds. It's in the air...
Well, I'm still not really started my essay on AIDS in Cuba (well, you'd get the reference if you read the post that disappeared), but I am learning a lot, like how Cuba has a lower HIV infection rate than Canada. And we thought we were a developed country (maybe George was right in calling us a developing country .... naw .... he's just an idiot).
Speaking of elections, now calling Ohio home is kind of weird, since it was the big decider in the presidential election. I haven't spent too much time there, but I could have called it Republican a while ago (oh wait, I did). But no use crying over spilt milk, or a total idiot being elected to run the most powerful country in the world - AGAIN.
OK, I'm stopping now, 'cause I'm not too sure I want to make this blog in any way political, I'd much prefer random ramblings to actual debatable substance - I don't want to make anyone mad.
rabble rabble rabble
*And I guess this is growing up*
Still figuring it out
So I haven't decided if I want to use this forum as a place to discuss things about the world that bother me, or maybe just vaguely rant about my day. Maybe I'll use it to poetically describe my very bleak surroundings, but in such a way as they start to seem artistically depressing. Whatever. I think I'm going to go for the stream of consciousness blog-postings. I think that works the best (or at least the easiest). It's fun to just let stuff come to you in the dark while you are sitting at your computer. Unfortunately, if you have just seen a rather gorey horror flick called "Saw", you would be turning on the lights right now (done).
The movie was pretty good. A couple of insincere scenes (well, just one) near the end kinda killed a little bit for me, but in all, I really liked (OK, it scared the crap out of me) the movie. Carey Elwes is very convincing right up until his final scene, when the theatre burst into laughter. Wow, that was some effective acting.
Sci formal is tonight. It reminds me of last year, when I was all dolled up for Sci formal. It was such a great night, with some people I knew, but a lot of people I had just met. It was an absolute blast - so beautifully constructed and just an all-around amazing evening. I was so lucky to go. But enough reminsicing...
I'll save that for another day, because BELIEVE ME, I could go on forever with nostalgia. Ahh, to be young again...

And so it begins
Welcome to my blog. I must admit, this is kind of strange for me in a voyeruish kind of way. Who is reading this? I kind of hope it's just me, I think I enjoy the illusion that I could actually post what I'm really feeling and not have to answer to anyone else. Is that selfish? Of course it is. But I'm really not that interesting, so I don't feel like it's going to be a big problem.
I kind of feel like a follower right now - almost everyone I know has a blog of some sort, and I think I'm just a bit of a late bloomer when it comes to following trends, so really, this is perfect timing for me - about 1.5 years out of date. OK, maybe just a few months, but whatever.
I'm excited that I'm finally getting that little soapbox I always wanted, though. It's wicked! I need a refreshing break from the things that burden my life, from the things that suck up my time, from the things that plague my general existence. OK, so maybe it's not so bad, but it's still kinda cool for me. Eh, what the hell...
Peace out.
