Working on it

I got a lot done this weekend/Monday. I am completely exhausted. I am hoping that I was able to pull out papers good enough to get me Cs in my classes. I do not want to take classes over. I am really really hoping to graduate in May 2011. Really really. I plan on going to grad school anyway, but I feel like if I can just get my bachelors the hard part is over. I will no longer have to take bullshit classes. Or at least that is what I tell myself.

I tell myself a lot of things to get through each day.

I just read an amazing essay by Herbert Marcuse. I would suggest people read "Repressive Tolerance." It is super dense, but plow through it. It is about 15 pages. Interesting stuff.

I got in a cyber fight with someone who supports SB 1070. He called me stupid. I cannot stand that. All my life I never thought I was pretty or funny or interesting. But I knew I was smart. I know I am smart. And when someone calls me stupid I get really self conscious and really angry. If I'm not smart, then what do I have?

Scary thought.

Good thing I am smart.

It's annoying how smart you are.

This guy made me feel really lame. Then I realized he was lame. And I felt better.
