oh, hi livejournal. it has been some time. but i am pretty sure that there are like 3 people who still read this so whatevs.. BUT if you are one of them, here is what is going on. i am spending 3 months in germany working at a bakery trying to improve my germany. i am half way done now. i am living in dahme which is on the baltic sea. it is very pretty and full of old people and babies. i live with two really fun girls in a gross basement apartment. my boss is an idiot called herr wagner. the women i work with are all really nice but the men are all disgusting muslim perverts from albania. i am now a notable racist and basically hate muslims. and i am actually not ashamed at all. and turkey should not be a part of europe. and i am excited to come home so i can be vegetarian again. i also have to come home and get my blood tested because i am for some reason covered in painful bruises and am scared that there is something wrong with me. Also, i am paranoid. i hate public transit. i am a little bit homesick today but normally i am quite happy here. in general i am having a great summer and this may in fact be the most important thing i have done with my small life so far. tschüss |

so the deal is, that yesterday my T.A. came to class, and we were talking about wilhelm boelsche that day, and he says "i don't know about you...but when i was reading this, i got really hungry!", so he brings out this bag of melba toast, and this jar of pickled herring. "i looked all over kingston for this! it's REALLLY hard to find!". and he makes himself a pickled herring on melba toast, and then passes the food to the rest of the class. what?? so we talk about boelsche, and obviously i don't eat any herring because i hate eating in front of people and ....ew. i'm obviously not going to eat herring in front of people i barely know. but after that class, i get an immense craving for pickled herring. like soooo fucking badly. it's all i can think about for hours. so after i'm done my classes that day , i go to my local grocrery store , and look for pickled herrings . i search around, but the closest thing i can find is...pickled eggs. so i buy this jar of pickled eggs. and i somehow managed to eat the entire jar by about 5 minutes ago. i will never eat a pickled egg again. ew. i am such a british wench. i drink gin, and i eat pickled eggs. what?? |

this christmas vacation so far is amazing, in the most reclusive nerdy way ever. every day for the last week, i've woken up at 1, eaten a ton of festive food, spent a few hours reading paradise lost, spent a few hours working on my study-abroad application, and then i sit around watching crime shows and reading my old comic books. i have made absolutely no attempt to be social, and it's unbelievably satisfying. i also haven't changed my clothes in nearly a week. what's more, the rest of the break will be possibly even more fantastic. the next four days i'm dedicated to solidly drinking spiked eggnog and stiff gin beverages with my extended family, and also girlfriends. then after christmas, i'm going to montreal for a few days. for new years, i'm staying in toronto. then i intend to decompress at home, and play with all the new things i got for christmas. so a bunch of books, i guess. i am simply filllllled with the christmas spirit!

HOLY FUCK I HATE EXAM PERIOD SO MUCH. i barely have anything to study. for the last week i've woken at any time between 8 am and 3 pm, then i usually spend a couple hours eating breakfast and watching the food network, then i study for about 5 hours, and then i make dinner and watch the food network again. however, last night i went to go see broken social scene, which was alright. tonight, i ended up drinking a pot of coffee and lurking around pro-anorexia sites. WHY?? I have absolutely no clue! i am neither anorexic, nor making any sort of attempt to lose weight. for the record, my BMI is hovering around 20. i guess that's...normal? but is it normal to check the Weather Network 20 times a day??? i actually get a sort of evil vindictive glee whenever the forcast is false. and i add my own predictions. right now, it's saying something like 5 degrees for the weekend. HAH! what a load of garbage. it's going to be cold! i can feel it in my bones. i have also run out of space on my ipod. on the one hand, i feel like this gives me some sort of "cred", on the other...it sucks. i have to delete things. also, season 11 of south park has proven to be quite the disappointment. WHO ELSE HATES EXAM PERIOD??????????? i have wayyyyyy too much time on my hands. i actually watched 3 episodes of FRIENDS in a row earlier. FRUSTRATED. RRRRR. |

oh my gosh. i am so hyper. i've been drinking a pot of coffee to myself, and all i've been doing for the last hour is occasionally pretending to do something on my computer, running up the stairs, and singing the bleepy part of daft punk's "around the world" to anyone that's in the living room. it goes like this: "buh beep boop beep buh beep boop" -(around the world around the world around the world) |

i have been ttrying to go to sleep for 3 hours, but i can't. i hate when this happens, whenever i'm up late, i get morose for no reason at all. i have everything to be happy about, but since it is almost three in the morning, i feel foul. and i keep on expecting this stomach cramp to go away, so i'm refraining from taking medicine, but i've had it for hours now. grr. ever since i got rid of facebook about a month ago, i've been replacing it with celebrity gossip blogs, the weather network, and checking livejournal (for no reason) constantly. this week i lost 2 pounds. last winter i got kind of fat, i hope it doesn't happen again. i can't look at pictures of myself. i also can't read my writing. sometimes fantasize about staying up all night and watching the sun come up, for no real reason. i fantasize about having to stay up all night writing an essay. or i get excited at the thought that one day, i will actually only have enough money to survive on ramen noodles. one day i ate mr. noodles for breakfast. i felt vile for the next 12 hours. at the gym this week i rowed too hard. now my forearms are killing me. i don't care about having a boyfriend. i just want someone around. every once in a while i remember a dream. a while ago i dreamt that i was lying under some steps on campus, i was drunk or something. and all these people left the math building, one of them a boy i cared about last year. he didn't notice me so i said his name. there was some sort of exodus. then for some reason we were lying together on this very high platform on a pole with all these hundreds of people below us. i was trying to carry on a conversation with him, but i was drunk and making no sense so he started talking to this other girl instead. i think i'm prettier than she is. i might be getting tireder....more tired? my spelling and grammar are getting worse all the time. it's probably because i rely on my word processor so much. i don't think i'd be able to write a paper without my thesaurus. eventually i am going to run out of a word for "us": humanity, civilization, humankind, the world, society, people, individuals.... the intellectual realm is such bullshit. everyone just pretends to have something to say, but they're just really putting their thesaurus into order. overanalyzing...at least i only do it at this time of night. i've been doing much better this year. my grades have improved, i'm more social, i'm eating well, exercising, i kick leaves on my walk home and listen to dance music, my heart is not "broken". i have terrible split ends but i don't know what to do about that... |
