Blah
I just wanted to pass this along. This was sent to me by one of my friends that I've not talked to all summer. I really like it. I'll post it in a second. Today, there's not much going on. Gonna hop in the shower, and head to school around 3:30pm. Im going to do the two journal article reviews this afternoon before 6pm and get those turned in on Wednesday. This weekend I am going to at least do the research part of my 10 page paper and do the 2 papers that are due next week. Tonight my family is getting together to have a big dinner for Heather and Curtis since they're in. I wish it was tomorrow night so that Steve and I could go, but they can't reschedule it for tomorrow. Mawmaw just called and told me that they couldn't. I tried to tell everyone yesterday that Steve isnt off on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, he's off on Wednesdays and Thursdays. I get out of class on Wednesday nights around 7 - 7:30 and I could've made it tomorrow night. Im kinda sad, but thats just the way it goes sometimes.
So today is going to consist of writing papers and going to class. This quarter is just freakin depressing me for two reasons. Number one: None of the classes I'm busting my butt for this quarter are going to count for the Communication degree I have to get now. Number two: I got an email today saying that they *over*awarded me SEOG money, so they're going to be doing a deduction over the next school year to even it out. Also, this quarter, Melanie did alla that crap. That's depressing. Gonna spend my birthday alone, that's always depressing. BAH! I have too much to do than sit here and write about this! Im gonna go now. Gonna hop in the shower and get going. I'll update later tonight or tomorrow.
Here's the thing I wanted to post. Bye.
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE
...one old love
she can imagine
going back to..
and one who reminds
her how far she has come.
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE
...enough money within her
control to move out and
rent a place of her own
even if she never wants
to or needs to.
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE
..something perfect to wear if
the employer or date of her dreams
wants to see her in an hour.
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE
..a youth she's content to leave behind.
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE
...a past juicy enough that
she's looking forward to
retelling it in her old age.
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE
...a set of screwdrivers, a
cordless drill, and a black lace bra.
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE
..one friend who always makes
her laugh... and one who lets her cry.
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE
a good piece of furniture
not previously owned by anyone
else in her family.
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE
...eight matching plates, wine
glasses with stems, and a recipe
for a meal that will make her
guests feel honored.
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE
..a feeling of control over her destiny.
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW.
..how to fall in love without losing herself.
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
..how to quit a job,
break up with a lover,
and confront a friend
without ruining the friendship...
and how to change a tire!!!!!!!
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
...when to try harder... and
when to walk away.
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
...that she can't change the
length of her calves, the width
of her hips, or the nature of her
parents.
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
...that her childhood may not
have been perfect...but its
over.
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
...what she would and wouldn't
do for love or more.
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
..how to live alone... even if
she doesn't like it.
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
...whom she can trust,
whom she can't,
and why she shouldn't
take it personally.
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
...where to go...
be it to her best friend's kitchen table.
or a charming inn in the woods...
when her soul needs soothing.
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
what she can and can't
accomplish in a day..
a month...and a year.
