tomorrow my little sister, jessie, is going back home. she has been here visiting with me since tuesday and it has been a blast! today i took her shopping since i will not see her for her birthday--february 13th. i spoiled the lil bugger rotten!
it was also a surreal experience bringing her, and her little boyfriend (my best friend hillary's little brother) to the bar with us. she got a fake id, oy vay. it was sort of, bittersweet. so fun to have her there! but, i felt guilty nonetheless.
know what else is bittersweet? when visa ups your credit limit when you already owe them 2 grand. thaaaaaaaaaaanks visa, thanks so much. temptation is an evil mistress.
i'm getting really behind in school, i hate it. i've got to pull up my socks, because right now i am getting too caught up in fun and making money (i am opting for shifts at work and skipping classes). and, i go to class feeling very indifferent. i suppose in a feminist program, arguments and heated debates are bound to come up, i welcome them! but lately, it's just been ridiculous. there's no structure to them, and i feel that a lot of my peers end up saying what the teacher is teaching us is bullshit, and close minded, but i feel what they are saying is absolute genius and i love it! it's radical, and it shakes you up, but i truly appreciate and see what point they are trying to make. however, i feel as though i am one of only a hand full. it leaves me feeling very hopeless. it's like, here i am, working amongst a group of women whose aim is to change women's lives and our society, but they remain so close minded, critical, and judgmental about anyone who is different than them, and they shut down any sort of radical idea or opportunity for them to change their thinking. i hate it.
i need to be surrounded with more like minded people, to keep me motivated.
i have a guilty pleasure for silverchair, too.
anyways, in a few days i am going to see joan jett with my beautiful hot babe girlfriend! her mum bought us tickets. miss jett is playing a casino, how sad is that?
