hannelynne:
angry. so fucking angry. fuck. All women are women, fat ones, thin ones, medium ones, small boobs, big boobs, NO boobs, wide hips, slim hips, big feet, no toes, too many toes, big noses, long hair, short hair, shaved hair. I’m so sick of body shaming. Being skinny doesn’t make me “a plank with…
All of this. All of it.
Listening to Biggie
while I’m doing my reading for African American Literature.
I’m the whitest person I know.
(Oh god, I switched to Band of Horses and now I really am. This is not a joke anymore.)
“There’s too much work to do. I just want to smoke weed and cuddle with our...”
– My roommate is a wise lady.
Instead of
being angry or hurt, tonight I have decided to spread the love.
There’s some stuff going on right now—really petty bullshit that is a blip on the radar in perspective—but at first my emotions started to drain out of me and onto the gravel of the parking lot I stood in. It was cold and my jacket was ripped in the middle, letting gusts of icy wind into the small of my back. I had a long,...
Turns out
I blow at writing fiction.
You’d think I’d be more comfortable with this since I’m in a fiction writing workshop, and if you’re in a class about learning to write fiction you’re obviously here because you don’t know how to do it yet, right?
WRONG.
My professor expects us to nut the fuck up and know everything about fiction writing already, and if we...
Oh, what?
I have to write a piece of creative fiction?
Quick! To Tumblr!

This is going to be a good thing. I can feel it.

I’m so excited for these guys. Every time they play a show I feel the need to turn to people in the crowd and yell over screaming guitar riffs, “I KNOW THEM. THOSE ARE MY TALENTED FRIENDS. ACKNOWLEDGE ME BECAUSE SOMEDAY THEY’LL BE FAMOUS AND I’LL GET TO SAY I KNOW FAMOUS PEOPLE.” But seriously. If this is what their first album sounds like, my friends are definitely...
“Pop a wheelie through this life. Ollie off your tombstone.”
– gave some cool anxiety advice this morning (via drinkyourjuice)
This term I have a stupid amount of work to do. That sounds ridiculous, especially since I hate when people complain about having to complete assignments in college. I’m overwhelmed and it’s only the first week. I have my senior thesis and six other reading-based classes, which accumulates to 400 pages of reading every night and a 10-15 page essay due every week. I genuinely enjoy...
Bathroom adventures pt. 2
Woke up this morning to discover our water heater is broken, so I get to go to my first day of classes smelling like stale beer and cigarettes from the bar last night.
I also just received an email about the homework that was apparently due today. It’s reading from a book I don’t have yet.
It’s only 10am and I’m winning. I’m winning so hard.
This morning I woke up to get ready for work and as I stepped in the shower I felt something weird crunch under my toes. I looked down and saw frosted mini-wheats all over the bathroom floor.
What the fuck happened in my house last night?
Anonymous asked: I HAVE A SECRET TO TELL YOU. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH. YOU'VE NO IDEA WHO THIS IS. HAHAHAHAHA.
You can always tell. Some choice people are going to be fine. Everything is okay because who cares about how cool you look on THE INTERENT?
I have
a list of adult things to do today and only enough motivation to re-watch Better Off Ted.
And so, the battle between responsibility and internet wages on.
Watchgarunriot:
OMGOMGOMGOMGOMG.
Maddie and I just watched this and I haven’t laughed this hard in a long, long time.

“Find people that make you feel felt.”
– Dr. John Thuerer
I have internet, a cozy-Saturday-sweater, Mexican coffee, and a cat on my lap. It’s gonna be a good day.
(It was not a good day.)

Right now I'm feelin' like a dick
because the Chinese foreign exchange student giving a presentation in class went 15 minutes over her allotted time, making me late to my tutoring session. I get it. Girl has a hard time speaking English, and she was doing a damn good job talking in front of a group, but I tutor in the Academic Support Center as a job and I need to leave. There are, like, people who need me to teach them and stuff....
Living on my own has taught me two things:
-I never fully appreciated constant access to a washer and dryer. Now I don’t have either, and I’m getting more creative with my outfits than I thought was possible.
-I am really bad at Hearts. Since we don’t have interbutts, when my roommates are gone the only thing I have to do is watch movies and play Hearts. I haven’t won a single game.
This is the life, man. This...
So I moved out,
which is great, because I no longer represent college students who live in basements like trolls across the nation. Our house is adorable and close to the college, and my roommates and I are adopting two cats today. I’m in heaven. The only downside is we’re too poor for interbutts at the moment. My phone is my only connection to tumblr and I’m much too lazy (and drunk, usually)...
Unpopular opinion:
I think, at times, Colbert’s satire of Des Moine County’s news team can be pretty mean. They’ve adjusted well by agreeing to appear on the show during the Iowa caucus, but I still think some of the jabs at the fluff stories Des Moine’s news team covers can be a little harsh, even for Colbert’s sardonic style.
Or perhaps I have an affinity for small towns where news...
