Last Day of Reading Period, While Writing My Paper...
Wake up and take a 54mg Concerta then go on Facebook for half an hour.
Read over the paper prompts and pick the only one about the book that I read. Draft it out on yellow lined legal paper while googling the author.
I think this one is about social mobility.
Not hungry but I grab lunch at noon because that is socially acceptable. Shaking and sweating uncontrollably because that is what...

boys and girls in america
She was good and drunk. She was all sorts of hot and sloppy, glistening with the sweat and wet and probably some beer and she was good and drunk. She looked around but she couldn’t find her friends, or anyone really, everything just kind of looked the same and she was good and drunk. That was for sure. So when the guy in the green jacket and the backwards hat and the nice looking pants, she...

i can write poetry
i can write the things that everyone
is so enamored with
“i wish i could write
that sort of stuff, and make people sentimental”
bullshit.
that sort of stuff
isn’t any good at all
you just like it because you think
that pretension is
the same as appreciation

i’m going to start slowly
just a short work to
make you think that...

I should go take a nap, but I’m in the library pretending to do work, instead wasting time stalking girls facebooks. It’s a hard life. Lifted this morning hungover, but won a water polo national championship. People tell me I type funnily. Got swim practice in about two hours. Gotta go. Gotta roll. Getting things done with business endeavors, but less in school related. What is...

A college application essay I wrote two years ago:
PROMPT: WRITE THE BEST ESSAY IN THE WORLD…
Write the best essay in the world. Make sure you’re influenced by everyone, but make sure no one else is influenced by the same person as you. Be original. Write to what the readers want to hear. Write to get into college. That’s all that matters. Make sure your essay is the best ever. It has to be witty and out of the box and original and...

Spent most of last night relearning how to style things, but I’m still not very good. A better use of my time would be studying for finals—whatever. Going to be famous. Internet famous. There is a difference. One is much more useful. The former. The latter means nothing. It’s fun though. Is a choppy sentence structure more “mature” than flowing, complex one? Seems...

Mike wrote a good post. I wanna write a good post. I’m in class; I should be paying attention. Instead I’ll write and play poker. Or pokemon. What if someone made a game about poker player pokemon? A movie? What’s the difference? Do you know what I did yesterday? Started a paper. Finished it this morning. On poker. Need to work out after class.

Stream of Consciousness
Do I use this enough? Probably not. My IQ has gone down since I got to college? Wouldn’t doubt it. I just wanna write stuff, but I’ve become to self-critical. Will writing stream of conscious help? Maybe. The problem is emulating without emulation. Write like your favorite authors, but not blatantly. Like Kerouac, Salinger, Fitzgerald, and Max. Can you do it? I should try harder. In...

Poor/lower income families barely (if they even) pay taxes at all. It’s pretty difficult cut taxes for someone who barely qualifies for taxes to begin with.

Dara Torres and the Olympics, Steroids, and Shit
All right, so everybody thinks Dara Torres is on steroids and some dude on Rome is Burning just said that he won’t watch the Olympics because “somebody out there is trying to get an advantage over everybody else.” Well, uh, obviously. Isn’t that the idea of sports? Now I’m not condoning steroids, but seriously, to not watch the Olympics because people have a...

catbird:
Shocking Revelation of the Day #2: I watch almost zero web video. It annoys the piss out of me to have to stop whatever it is I’m doing, pause my currently-playing music / unmuting my volume, and then waiting to passively absorb whatever it is the video is about. Yes, of course, I DO watch SOME web video from time-to-time, but the notion that a person would consume EIGHT HOURS OF IT...

Unpaid internships - Marco.org →
Here’s what I have to say: “A middle-class student from Pennsylvania can’t afford to take an unpaid internship in New York: it would cost him thousands of dollars just to live here for the summer, and he’d lose the opportunity to make a salary at a paying job.” So he doesn’t take the job. He is not forced to go to New York to be an unpaid intern. if he can’t afford...

Texting Roulette
jakehurwitz: Last night some of my friends and I invented a new game. Texting Roulette is where a group of people pass their phones counterclockwise and each person gets to text someone from another person’s phone. There are a few rules. - The text can’t be insanely vulgar. - You can veto family and business relationships. - All texts are read aloud before they’re sent. - If you don’t allow a...
