enlightenment day if any of you students are asked to start an organization in your schools, whether high school or college, DO IT. i can't tell you how fulfilling it is when one of them texts, calls, emails and then guilt trips you into coming and seeing how the group is doing now, or to come please save us all from ourselves, seven years after you sacrificed innumerable unmentionables just trying to get it started way back then. :-)

i can't tell you how happy it also makes me to turn down an invitation, like i did today. AHAHAHAHA! what can you do when they text too late for me to call in sick without raising colleague whispers and eyebrows? ahahahaha. i'm so going to hell. my comfort is that i'll look up, and there they all will be, among the puffyness of clouds, and it will be enough for me to know that without me, they'd all have never made it! AHAHAHAHA!

but ya. start a group backed by a cause you feel passionately about. all them crazy hormones and heady feelings and ideology and hobbies and consciousness things in college are actually real and lasting, i tell ya. no, really. the things you learn in college make such an impression on you, making change and erasure, i think, at this point, i haven't left school for very long yet, and i still want to go back, impossible.

but no, i'm not tellin' what group i hella formed in college. three guesses. ...  ¶ 2/17/2005 04:17:00 PM
