guys, school started up again this week.
i’m happier than a jack-rabbit on speed that was just given a can of mountain dew. and i’m jumping on a personal trampoline. don’t know how the trampoline got there, but it’s there and i’m pleased. ugh, now they gave me a kazoo.
i already have a strain in my arm from raising my hand too much.
i want to hug all of my syllabi. and smell them. is that bad? i hope not, because i just hugged all of them.
i got new pens and a new notebook and a gender studies professor that asks us to sit on the ground in a circle and talk about feelings. and lady-parts. and more feelings. i kind of think i love her already.
i’m also taking two poetry classes(!!!!!!!!!!)
(i have to scream into a pillow out of joy every time i remember the aforementioned fact.)
guys, every time i think i am not going to apply to six-year ph.d programs, and get
really strong bifocals because of too much reading in poor lighting, and stress-eating noodles in libraries, school starts again and every poem is like a present and yesmyroommatesandmotherandboyfriendcannotstandhowdisgustingiam
andyestheyhavetoldmemanytimes.
now if you’ll allow me, i have to go spoon all of my textbooks. they are very needy and i must attend to them.
I can totally relate to this.
Excited for you!!!!!!!
