I'll do this in sections.

1. I got into my number 1 law school choice YAY! smile

2. I have officially stopped purchasing sweatshop made clothing.

3, I got my first semi-harassing anti-vegan email today (not from anyone on SG). Though I was angry at first, I kind of like it now. It makes me feel pretty cool actually wink

4. Thanks to the_smaller_than I have found...

Congratulations on non-support of sweatshop labor. Curious though what you think about the freegan option? What if that sweatshop garment was found or second-hand? What then?

As a side note, I had a friend once who only stole from the Gap. She gave the vast majority of her grift away to friends and felt it was a very ethical way of punishing them for their choices in business practice.

politrix:
oh yeah... and I wanted to throw this your way too.


One ship drives east and another drives west
With the selfsame winds that blow.
Tis the set of the sails
And not the gales
Which tells us the way to go.

Like the winds of the seas are the ways of fate,
As we voyage along through the life:
Tis the set of a soul
That decides its goal,
And not the calm or the strife.

Welp, I am now 22. And for the first time in my whole life I actually feel older on my birthday. Maybe because 21 was such a big deal and now its just like....whatever. My friend refers to 22 as "the birthday that starts birthdays which no longer matter."

I have also had about enough of people being assholes about the fact that I'm vegan....

Can someone please find me a women's magazine that doesn't totally fuckin suck?

So after reading several issues of "Glamour" and being very near vomiting I bought a copy of "Bitch" magazine. I thought surely it wouldn't piss me off and might be a good read. However, it's filled with a bunch of anti-porn garbage (SG and Playboy mentioned spefically). I know I could overlook...

I wanted to post something up here to see if anyone would half-read it and then post a stupid comment to piss me off.

But I can't think of anything to talk about, so I'm going with this.

Ok so I need some advice. Maybe the students can really help me out on this one.

I had my first test of the semester last week. It was a semi-difficult test but I think I did pretty well. However, the test took me twice as long as it normally would have because there was a girl sitting behind me loudly popping gum bubbles the...

you could simply ask the prof before the next exam about the problem and how he/she suggests you deal with it, meaning should you move to a different part of the room, or maybe he/she can approach the student 'if' the prof notices the disturbances. other than that you'll have to just move yourself or wear earplugs. People take tests in different environments better than others. I had a few friends in college that when they had an engineering test they would go to the test smelling bad (I guess not showering for a few days) and making noises that were not quite out of hand but still bothersome to most. It was their way to make a better curve for themselves. I don't like taking tests in total silence, I need somthing humming or making a constant quiet noise. Hell I hate tests in general but whatever. The girl behind you might be relaxing herself by popping her gum and sniffing and so forth. Not purposefully to hurt you or anyone else, but just to help herself in the exam. Good luck.

Those people sound like assholes. Simple to me.

I've been very financially stressed lately. Between unexpected expenses (like dead cell phones and sick pets) and law school apps, and art supplies, I don't even know how I'm still buying food. Sucks...

Are law school apps and art supplies a bizarre combo of expenses? oink
plumfairy:
yes they kinda are , especially when you can't afford food. Keep a positive outlook though, it sucks ass applying for schools and shelling out so much money for each app, but once your in it will seem worth it. I empathize with you though, financially is one of the only ways I get stressed anymore, and its hard to deal with still when it hits me. good luck

I dropped my fuckin cell phone yesterday. This was like the 1000th and last time it would be dropped because it broke into three pieces. Nice. So I had to buy a new phone. Not nice. Oh well. At least the memory card survived so I didnt lose everyone's phone numbers.

Geez, it's been awhile since I wrote anything here. I've been totally swamped with law school applications and that type of thing.

Other than that, I have decided that Glamour Magazine is probably one of the stupidest things on earth.
andersin:
Law school? Sweet! Good luck; I can only imagine what a pain in the ass law skool app's. are like. Where are you applying? I'm gonna start investigating PA schools further this upcoming week.

I agree, Glamour Magazine sucksass!

Cheers!

Happy New Year!

How did your New Years turn out? I was driving back to Tampa from Virginia drinking lots of coffee and rockin' out to Coltrane and various others.

Hope these following days have been better than that first (or last) night was.
