get into law school (read all 7 entries…)
Woo 3 days ago

LSAT is done with. I think it went okay, so now it’s just ever more waiting.

And writing a damn personal statement.



stop swearing without provocation (read all 8 entries…)
Getting a bit better at this one, 5 days ago

except when I think about how the LSAT is in two days, I didn’t finish all the physics problem set, my apartment is always freezing, and the guys across the hall are superfratty… which is sad, because I saw one of them driving this really crappy van and I thought, “Oh hey, cool people!” but they just play their music super loud, and chain smoke in the hall and leave ten to fifteen cigarette butts on the wall and yell down the hall at their “pussy friends” that they’ll “kick their ass” the next time they play whatever video game… something that sounds like “sex.” CXS? CSX?

But I’m going to start volunteering with kids next week, so I better get it in check by then !

.mason.jennings. 5 days ago

spinning your umbrella over your head
you should be in bed but you’re here instead
walking with me towards a midnight swim
i can give you baby what you can’t get from him

songbirds singing in an old dead tree
the way you drive, honey, scares the hell outta me
hundred miles an hour on the brand new road
look at me again you’ll make my heart explode

clouds roll by laying up on the hill
everything is still
do you think we will?
if we do there’ll be no turning back
if we don’t, babe there’s no chance of that

hey hey little fighter girl
it’s you and me up against this whole wide world
sleeping together in the lion’s den
got your earrings in my pocket til i see you again

cars in the distance, a bicycle bell
dogs are barking as the kingdom fell
in its place, stood a golden town
where people walked without touching the ground

hey hey, little fighter girl
it’s you and me now against this whole wide world
sleeping together in the lion’s den
babe but i can’t sleep at all until i see you again

yeahyeahyeah-yeah,
come on, kiss me
keep on kissing me..
