hey claremonters and others! Guess what? I'm still alive!!!! The march for women's lives is over, so that means I have so much time on my hands I dont know what to do with myself. In case you guys are wondering, my semester was filled with planning a radical cheerleaders cheer and noise bloc to the march for women's lives. It was the largest women's rights march in history, and there were hundreds of cheerleaders!!!
We were fucking hot!!!!!!!

see us at http://dc.indymedia.org/newswire/display/95239/index.php i didnt want to post the pictures myself because they belong to someone else and i am not mean


1.2 million people felt that reproductive choice was important enough to bus and fly themselves into DC for the weekend and attend what is now turning out to be the largest march in history.

where were you guys?


k bye

I went to chiapas, if anyone is interested in hearing about it, get in touch

for those of you who didnt guess, I got back to DC ok.

Man I think this is the busiest semester I have had yet. Right now my coworkers and I are tabling at NCOR (national conference on organized resistance) and it has been pretty succesful. We are tabling for the My Voice Counts campaign and everyone seems pretty interested. There are funky activist people everywhere it is awesome!

anyway that is all I have to report for the now.

I hope everyone is having a good spring semester.

ok bye

my car was stolen.

I dont care

there were 25 cds in my car

2 I had not even completely listened to yet

my favorite album that I listen to at least every other day is gone

I love all you claremont people, but I really think that this will be my last extended vacation to this white gentrified hellhole where people somehow still manage to get their cars stolen

at least when you live in the ghetto its easier to justify

at least when you live in the ghetto you can kneel to the god of public transportation

that is all I have to say

Home is starting to become boring. So boring that I am updating my god damn lj. Annie b. please BE home soon so we can watch some SERIOUS elimidate and practize our moves for L.I.C.K.!

Started writing American University students for choice Manifesto. Most of it I stole from the choice USA webby, but meh. It has made me start thinking seriously though about what choice means to ME exactly, which I think is hard and complicated to put in words but I am trying.

News of the good: Met cool new girl who works at my new hang out for this break, the local bread shop. She has good good taste in music and a cool name, I hope we get to hang out. This town needs some new blood.

News of the awesome: whoever the hell dov at rise up is, (mr bryan of the kruglak variety, I think) they sent us an email about the food not bombs convention, which is mucho excitement in NY this august!

that is all I have to say, for today,
ok bye

right now I should be studying for spanish but I cannot find my review sheet and its really pissing me off. tomorrow I will be done with finals and I wont have to do anything the rest of next week except for wait until I can get the hell out of here.

I had a lot of high hopes for this semester. And I have not neccessarily been let down, but I would have to say that there were a lot of ups and downs this semester, and extremely sorry to say that this semester ended on a horrible, horrible down. I dont mean to be overly dramatic, but after the untimely death of a friend, you really begin to understand that life is so much more precious than anyone will ever know. Sometimes it's so hard to admit to myself that crying is ok, and we should all cry sometimes. Now I understand that crying is important and we all have to shed a tear, especially for someone that left this earth way too soon before his time.

and thats not to say that I didnt have fun this semester. I laughed, I made friends, I had sex (for all too brief a period), I learned more about myself and the world around me than in any other school year.

But now is the time to cry, to shed a tear for a boy who was only on this earth a very short while. A boy who only gave love and sweetness to the people I knew, who was always friendly, and always looked towards the positive. I didnt even know him that well, but I can say that whenever I talked to him it was always a pleasure. And so it goes.............

You will move
With me and we will
Stay still and
Words will move
Around us.
Surround us in gold
And in our own world
We will be
Silent

You will swim
To me we will
Be free
And words will
Swim around us
Surround us in
Schools and in
Our cool
We'll be reminded

That you refuse to fade away
*I hide to stay the same
Where do we go from here
I don't know

For me you flower to be chosen
I fall down to be noticed
Where do we go from here I don't know

It was a time
A way of life
The only secrets
We talked about
Were all the fears
In all these years
We spent together

*repeat

its amazing to me how I can do everything I do, go to school, work 2 jobs, laugh, paint, see some shows, do stuff on campus, chill with friends, and fall asleep at night and still feel sometimes like my life could be so much more with so many more people and be so convinced that I hate everything that I want to cry but I just force back the tears, suck it up, and write the next 5 page paper on gestaltists and how their laws can be applied to music.

ahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaa

hey everyone!

so I am sitting on my bed, in my cool new apartment downtown. In the downtown downtown of chocolate city, listening to all the sirens go by and tomorrow is school again........

yeah so I saw this crazy fucking movie and I really think everyone should see it. It's called thirteen and its about what happened to this girl when she turned thirteen.
watch the trailer
then see the movie especially all you LA folks

went to the civil rights march....that was pretty cool. Got really sunburned and heard jesse jackson, coretta scott king, martin luther king the third and.........Al Sharpton! speak. Good old Al. His speech was the best one I thought too. I will have pictures soon

k bye

HwarrangWarrior: I want to see how many people would show me their boobs
MissMakiNomiya: ha
HwarrangWarrior: I wonder how many I could see in 1 day
HwarrangWarrior: probably 1 or 2
HwarrangWarrior: I bet Anna would
HwarrangWarrior: I know anna would
MissMakiNomiya: you should call yourself the one man mardi gras
HwarrangWarrior: just because I want to see some titty
MissMakiNomiya: dress up like a big sparkly clown and buy some beadss to throw
HwarrangWarrior: I don't think that would work
MissMakiNomiya: hahahaha
MissMakiNomiya: its funny though
HwarrangWarrior: I bet if I went to clubs during mardi gras week I'd see some
HwarrangWarrior: I'll try that

well, the past few days have been strange to say the least. I am not really going to say how, I guess if you are really interested you could ask me. But a few cool tihngs have happened in the last week.

My roomate and I got an apartment. One bedroom, at the Westpark in Dupont circle, the predominantly gay neighborhood of DC, and one of the nicest in the district, if any one is interested.

My father bought me an early b-day pressent. I know I have bragged to most of you already, but this is my big chance to brag on lj that he got me a digital camera and it is soooooo wonderfully wonderful it just makes orgasm after every single picture I take. Thats how fucking amazing this camera is.

And as always, I cannot wait to go back to school, now that I have a place to live. I am counting the days, hours, and minutes until I get back and my roomate picks me up from the airport. Me so excited!

eww now I have to go to work and then ugh, gynecologist, so peace ya'll

hey you lame little russian grrls, you better watch out, because Sonya and Annie are forming a NEWER and more IMPROVED girl pop music group entitled l.i.c.k. And when we make out with eachother for money, damn it its going to mean something, because we have been friends longer. So watch out America, here comes l.i.c.k.

ok thats all I had to say.

more news about l.i.c.k. as it develops

old job: taking care of old woman who had a stroke. Horribly depressing

New and Improved job: Nanny for two kids, Hannah and David, 9 and 6. Really really involved.

I feel like I am a mother in training, even though I never planned on having kids. Oh well, at least the money is good.

how did they know she was my favorite?

To link it (the actual code):

what summer is all about:

driving home from the 24 hour wal-mart at 11pm singing the beach boys with angelique

O lordy lordy the year is over and here I am back at home, talking to the montians and contemplating all the stuff that happened at AU this past year.

Man I had a ridiculous amount of fun this year. I met some kick ass people, did some cool stuff, drank some drinks (that was for all you homestar buffs)

Ok so lets start with people...........

I had such a great time chillin with Chad and I am ever greatful that I got to meet him and in turn, meet all his cool friends. Thanx so much Chad. Yeah, we had our problems, but we got past it and I am proud of us for that. Kick ass spring break and such also.

The freshie bitches!!!!!!! Ben, Enver and Jesse (yes jesse, you are too my bitch) I love all of you so much. Ben, it all started with you. You are definately the funnest friend I made this year. Oh, and you introduced me to Jeff, which, yeah. Enver, you crack me up. Need I say more? And finally, Jesse. Oh Jesse. I heart jesse. and spade him. He's the torturous big brother I always wanted but never had. Jesse makes me stop and think about things I instead of just rushing into stuff. I am going to miss him this summer.

Jamia and Mollie you are my best grrls and I am sad I did not get to see you guys before I left for cali cali. But the summer will fly by and we will be reunited at the black cat soon enough.

Jeff will probably never see this cause he hates ljs (sigh, what a hater) but I feel the need to say something......Man, I have never had so much fun in such a small amount of time with one person. I really didnt realize it was going to be so hard to leave you until you smiled at me the other night as we toasted with our champagne and you said "to us meeting." That and the incredible sense of purpose I get from cleaning pink packing peanuts up off the living room floor of the brandywine house. I hope all of my c-mont friends get to meet Jeff, cause seriously!

And last but not least, my roomate, who better come visit me this summer. In college, people either love their roomate or hate them. I havent met anyone yet that felt lukewarm about the person they slept in the same incredibly close quarters with. Well, I gotta tell everyone, I am sooooo incredibly lucky. My roomate is roomate-tastic, roomateriffic, and roomate-licious. She kicks so much ass and pretty much all of the big highlights of this year involve her. Too many jokes to even start. And I am so proud of her and us for that matter for just GETTING OVER IT as many times as we needed to. We are going to have the coolest apartment and the best junior year ever. No, like, seriously.

What I learned this year....................

1 million ways to burn
by Ursula Rucker


One million ways to burn
choose one
One million ways to burn
choose one

I look upon you
with eyes burnt from tears
sear the meat of my heart with
memories

of your hot/cold words
your dry ice words

sticking
stinging
singing

with vision blurred
I watch
our love go up in a frigid smoke
guess I got too close
I inhaled
I choked

slow burn, slow burn
slow burn, slow burn

Shall we leave our love at the stake
within a fence of flames

sacrificed on an altar of discontent
sacrificed for no greater purpose
on an altar of self
for the purpose of self

Will the rains come
to douse or drown
will we rebuild from the ember and the ash

or will nothing ever grow here
on this burnt earth
that was
us

slow burn, slow burn
slow burn, slow burn

slow burn, slow burn
slow burn, slow burn

Burn
from passion
or displeasure
Burn

slow burn

One million ways to burn
choose one
One million ways to burn
choose one
