SO MANY GOOD MOVIES COMING OUT AROUND CHRISTMAS. I CANNOT WAIT. I’VE BEEN ANTICIPATING THESE MOVIES SINCE FOREVER. THEY BETTER MEET MY EXPECTATIONS. ESPECIALLY LES MISERABLES SINCE I’VE BEEN WAITING PRACTICALLY CENTURIES FOR THAT. CENTURIES I TELL YOU.

Talking Clothes
I try not to buy clothes that have words on them, because people feel compelled to read whatever is written on clothes and for the most part, the words are meaningless. Of course, sometimes it’s impossible to avoid the “brand est. year” logos, but I would never buy one of those damn tight shorts with writing on the ass.
But when I went to F21 today, I realized that there were a...

Losing My Mind
These days I feel like I move my mouth more often than I move my brain. I’m losing thoughts. No, I’m losing the power to generate thought.
Is this what “losing your mind” is supposed to refer to?
I never thought that “losing your mind” was an appropriate description for madmen. I’ve always thought that crazy people have overly active brains. Minds that...

Michelle Dean, “Me Be Pretty One Day” - The Rumpus
“Because I know what I know about the way ‘prettiness’ is artillery to the soul, I clamped down on it quickly. But the blush crept across my face, anyway.”
This is so interesting. I’ve always been fascinated by (and wondered why) the fact of beauty is so important to me—how...

one thing i’ve noticed is that people on tumblr are very prone to mob mentality. for example, that photo of obama fist bumping a janitor at the white house that went viral on tumblr. it was a cool photo and everything but i guess what bothered me was that so many people wrote things like “OBAMA 2012!” or something generically anti-republican/pro-obama (“I HATE RICK SANTORUM”)

Online Dating Experiment: Marlababy →
The world is fucked. If you are single, you’re fucked. If you’re married, you’re probably going to get divorced, so you’re fucked too. Online dating is taking over, and it’s as bad as everyone says it is. The general population is morphing into lazy, fake, desperate, and creepy weirdoes on the internet, and I did a little experiment to prove it.
Oh my God. This made my night. Some of these...

Back!
It feels good to see my dash again, but I’m surprised that I didn’t feel as withdraw-y as I thought I would. Maybe I’m not that addicted. If this is the case, I should seriously start limiting my time on this time-sucker.
It’s been a hectic weekend with math cramming (and I still might not get that A QQ. But oh well, Brown doesn’t accept credit so differential...

Read on at your own risk. Brief synopsis: this is not my fucking week.[[MORE]]
So I feel like I need to write this somewhere, but fuck I am going through one of those damn mental breakdowns that I have once or twice every semester. Except I think this time it’s worse since I’m sick and PMS-ing and stressed all at the same fucking time.
I’ve been expecting this for a while now...

Four days before prom and I feel sick. Good timing, Iris.

I was going to open my Haagen-Dazs Green Tea ice cream at 10PM, but I decided to do a quick Tumblr check. Now it is 11, and I would feel too guilty if I started eating now. QQ I have missed out on yummy ice cream tonight.
Life Lesson #26: Don’t procrastinate.

I just finished Sherlock today, having started on Friday night.
I had no idea this was going to be such a great modern remake. Everything, EVERYTHING, was done perfectly. So many little things have made me really happy (the deerstalker hat and the journalism titles especially). I love how they incorporated so much technology and made it work. Irene Adler turned out to be…different from what...

Things that Annoy Me:
Eating too much.
Not eating enough and being hungry.
Exercising.
Not exercising and getting fat.
Studying.
Not studying and bad grades.
Going out.
Staying home.
Going on the computer.
Not going on the computer.
Sleeping too much.
Not sleeping enough.
Too many things to do.
Too little things to do.
Why is it so damn hard for me to feel satisfied.

I hate this goddamn heat
Yeah I was trying to organize my thoughts but that’s the only one I can think of right now because this goddamn heat is messing with my brain
It’s so damn hoooooooootttt.

I just finished Les Miserables. All 1463 pages of the unabridged brick. I cried my way through the last two chapters/sections. Too many feels. ;___;
Detailed thoughts on the novel tomorrow, but overall, it was amazing.

Technical Difficulties
I finally got around to doing some college stuff today and I started with the roommate questionnaire. However, Brown keeps on saying that I can’t access the information, so under Kevin’s guidance, I reset my password. Not once but 5 times. On multiple browsers.
And it still doesn’t work.
Now I’m really starting to think that Brown just messed up my admissions decision...

Happy Tuesday!
I started off today wanting it to be a Thursday already, but it ended up being a really good day.
I actually paid attention in Music Theory for once and I did my examples on the board correctly. FOR ONCE. I feel so proud of myself. I’m still going to fail dictation though. QQ
Sitting next to Kat is rather entertaining.
Work was actually really nice today. It’s usually disorderly and...

whenever i’m bidding on something on ebay i like to message anybody else that bids on the item to tell them that i’m not here to make friends, and i’m in it to win it.
spinnercat asked: The notation is 1/8 * ∫∫∫ [with a W underneath] z dx dy dz and then he wrote underneath "w is a cube bounded by the 1st octant with a length of 4." So it's integrating over the region that is that cube, right? My multivar is really rusty >.<

“To embark on death is sometimes the means of escaping a shipwreck; and the coffin lid becomes a life saving plank” (1195).
Is it just me or is this an allusion to the scene in Moby Dick where Ishmael survives the battle with the whale by floating on the coffin of Queequeg?
Only 100 pages left to go of the brick!

azul-e:
I vacillate between absolutely abhorring humanity and falling thoroughly in love with people. Most often I am disgusted by humanity, and I struggle to refrain from ripping my hair out at all the trivial, irritating actions that bother me to no end. I am terribly passive, however, and If I am completely honest,it is my passivity that bothers me the most. Some days though, days that are...

A Real Dream
I lived within a dream
with the red redder and the
blue bluer
with exponential sounds amplified and dropped
like pearls on a piano
Phosphorescent leaves
Light’s broken shadows and her
breath
enveloping me
in me
Dawn woke I
to see this dream is a real dream.
Christina Pan (Brown ‘13), Visions
