Robert is hot. He has a sexy ass and damn fine hair.

the end.

3:47pm: 68 hours later, I'm back. Did you miss me livejournal?
Alright friends. As some of you might be aware, it is final week up here in the [not so] scenic Mount Pleasant. Clearly, through my subject and the first couple lines of this post, it is evident that I along with many other students in the quest to survive finals, have lost what little bit of my mind was left. So now here I am, in the library, putting off working on a take home exam, so that I might wander around the world of livejournal, which has never failed to be more interesting than homework.

I went to the Casino on Saturday night. I don't like the casino at all. Seriously, losing money is never my idea of fun. Anyway, I went with Robert, Jaymie, Taylor, Chad, and Tony and instead of gambling away money that is better spent on food and laundry, I played DDR like a son of a bitch. Yes, I'm bad, but I love it anyway. Then Robert and I, instead of watching Chad play blackjack, proceeded to watch the people around us and conclude their life stories, that couldn't be more true unless of course they told us their life stories. I'm sure that ours would still prove to be more interesting than what the truth might hold. Then there was the man who kept staring at me. Yes, through my 18 layers of clothes, scarf, and jacket [a parka even] he knew I had boobs and he was going to find them. Off to Lil' Chef it was because what better way is there to kill time? Justin saw a man that he affectionatly termed "Wolfman" that he couldn't stop staring at that the rest of us wished would disappear because he was kind of scary. Many hours later, we decide, let's dye Lydia's hair. To Meijer it was because where else can you get hair dye at 2:30 in the morning? And just like that, I'm turning water into wine through Lydia's head. Drove off in the snow to drop of Jaymie and Robert at a time that was far too late for how early I needed to wake up the next day.

I passed out at approximately 6 am to be woken up at 8:30 by Nick to go to church. Little did I know that this church was in the middle of fucking no where. Careful distinction to be made. Mt. Plesant = the middle of no where aka Flat Land Suck. Where this church was = the middle of fucking nowhere. Clear? Anyway, on this journey to the middle of fucking nowhere what do we happen to drive by? None other than a farm of bison!! I assure you I am not kidding. This is 100% a true story. Fucking bison in Michigan. I still stand entirely amazed today, two days later. Some other stuff happened on Sunday, not really much worth mentioning....Oh, there were a bunch of crazy Kabbalists in my living room for most of the evening. It was such great conversation and I am still amazed with that night.

Okay, so the rest of the week has been more or less normal, or as close to normal as I dare to venture. I think that it might prove to be in my best interest to start this exam that is due Thursday. ick. I'm so glad this semester is almost over. yay yay yay! This is where I must depart for today.

until next time...

2:08am: gucci..i like it.

Gucci. Sophisticated yet sensual, you are
cutting-edge. Extremely classy, your attitude
can sometimes be described as snobby. However,
you are always elegantly outfitted in the
latest trend. You are modern and usually
serious, but sexual at the same time. As far as
guys are concerned, you tend to go after the
rich CEO. Guys love your tough-girl attitude
and can't resist your bold charm.

So, a couple of things. First of all, I was asked what inspires the way that I dress when I was at the bar last night. I'm not kidding. I was so shocked. I just stood there with no ability to answer this question. Second thing. I think this is fun.

You Are a Seeker Soul

You are on a quest for knowledge and life challenges. You love to be curious and ask a ton of questions. Since you know so much, you make for an interesting conversationalist. Mentally alert, you can outwit almost anyone (and have fun doing it!). Very introspective, you can be silently critical of others. And your quiet nature makes it difficult for people to get to know you. You see yourself as a philosopher, and you take everything philosophically. Your main talent is expressing and communicating ideas. Souls you are most compatible with: Hunter Soul and Visionary Soul

have a nice day.

3:01pm: Stolen from Robert who stole this from Jaymie…

6. "You may think you see who I really am but you’ll never know me everyday "

8. "Feeling unknown, and you’re all alone. Flesh and bone by the telephone, lift up the receiver I’ll make you a believer."

9. "Don’t let some hell bent heart leave you bitter, when you come close to selling out reconsider, give the heavens above more than just a passing glance."

10. "When she lay on the table, they operating to save you, it’s like an Angel came to you sent from the heavens above."

4:36pm: sassyasiandiva: Jesus doesn't get mad at people, Taylor Wong. Jesus Loves You.
Alright Friends.

In addition to the lovely snow that has fallen at the fault of Taylor Wong, I have finished my first whole short story of the semester. [insert applause here.] Obviously it will not be coming to a book store near you, nor will I be posting it on livejournal due to the fact that it is far too long. If you would like to read it, comment and I will be happy to send it to you via email. [I enjoy the word via.]

some more conversation with Taylor Wong:
alifeofobscurity: not mary, jesus or god...a human friend....
alifeofobscurity: lol
sassyasiandiva: excuse me, don't discount mary or Jesus.
sassyasiandiva: they LOVE YOU!!!
alifeofobscurity: i know, i love them too
sassyasiandiva: good call
sassyasiandiva: so whos pissed at you?
alifeofobscurity: i pray every hour they that they will continue to love me for the sinner i am
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
sassyasiandiva: kill her.
sassyasiandiva: jesus will understand
alifeofobscurity: lol
alifeofobscurity: i know he will
sassyasiandiva: hahah
sassyasiandiva: he's so understanding
alifeofobscurity: i know, that is why i love him

I'm sorry if Taylor and I have offended any of you by our convo, but you have to understand that this is an inside joke and I appreciate Taylor for reminding me that Jesus does love me.

3:21pm: Taking a trip down memory lane...
So I was scrolling through livejournal today and I came to a journal that a dear friend of mine had posted. She was reminiscing about high school and high school friends. Like most, I am a sap for sitting back and thinking about better days gone by. So I thought, perhaps today, I would share a little bit of what I miss from high school and what I have learned in my time at CMU, [I promise there are at least a few things.]

I have to admit that I was never the popular girl in high school. At the same time, I never had a preoccupation with being the best, being the most liked or anything like that. The idea of being plastic really wasn’t anything that sounded appealing to me. As far as my friends from high school, I maintain that the people who knew me well are still some of the important people in my life. I love looking back and seeing that now, three years later, I’m still as close to some of the people, if not closer, than I was with them in high school. Yes, I miss in ways that words can’t fully describe going down to Detroit on weekends to go to punk shows at St. Andrews Hall when I had clearly told my mother I was at a friend’s house. I miss swimming and all of my girls on the swim team. I miss the dynamic we had and getting in fights with Lauren Jezoirski with kick boards in the storage room. I miss spending countless hours in people’s basements doing nothing more than wasting time with 10 other people. I miss being at school an hour before it started and having semi-political mostly controversial conversations with a certain Michael McGuinness, among others my freshman year.

As time as gone by, I have lost certain people from my life who I thought would always be there and I have gotten closer to some that I would have never thought it was possible. There are a few things that I look forward to when I go home. I look forward to the possibility of running into Michael McGuinness and having one of the officially patened “Mike and Jenny talks.” I love spending time with Nicky, even if it is just her sitting in my bedroom, half listening, half reading US magazine while we are getting ready to go to the bar. I love sitting in my sister’s room with her and watching Full House in the middle of the night. I love going to the bar with my friends from home. And yes, I love going home to work because I work with some of the most fabulous girls that I have ever met.

I have had amazing opportunities since I have gone away to school and have met some fabulous people on the way. I am so glad I came to CMU and I can honestly say that there is no other school that would have fit me better. I am so happy that I have met all of you that I cherish as friends. I like being a part of this group recognized as a “family” up here. It’s a feeling I haven’t had from a group of friends in a painfully long time.

Okay, and now the list of the top 20 things that I have learned while I have been at CMU…

( Jenny's Top 20 Lessons Learned )

So there is my top 20. To my friends who have been there with me through this whole mess and the people who will continue to be here when it is done, thank you. I am fortunate to have all of you in my life.

until next time…

7:37pm: update.
* I am reading three books right now and am really enjoying it.
* I am writing my first short story worth mentioning for the semester. I have gotten to the point of putting on my computer and editing and I am loving it.
* I have a GSA meeting in 20 minutes that I need to leave for right now.
* I am really enjoying Christina Aguilera and Britney Spears right now more than usual. Yes, random thought but my friends, it is the truth.
* I bought Britney's Greatest Hits today. I have to laugh at myself a little for that but it was a good investment.
* Last week, despite it's downs, was mostly good I think and I find it very amusing that my rooommate now refers to me as "Whore." I love that this is the way that we show our affection.
* I went to GR on Monday night with Jaymie, Justin, and Chad. We played CMU [from last year] Trivia, Jenny Trivia, Sex and the City and/or Buffy Trivia, and Never Have I Ever. It was quite an enjoyable time.
* Robert and I are the poster children for working out because we make it look fun. LoL.
* At one point today I was wearing two ties around my neck. I am now only wearing one.
* I am about to be late so I am off.

Life is pretty damn good right now.

4:00pm: what states have you slept in?


create your own visited states map
or check out these Google Hacks.

12:23am: alright, it's my turn.
I got an email today and when I read it, it made me a little bit sad. I decided that instead of looking at all the things that are bad about America and the things that would make it easy for anyone to want to not be proud of being an American citizen, that I would look at the things that make me proud and realize how fortunate I am to live in America.

( I am proud to be an American Citizen. )

4:33pm: Four years isn’t the end of the world.
Hello Friends.

So the results of yesterday were not exactly what most of us had been hoping for. With the monkey being put back in the White House and the discriminatory proposal being put in our Constitution, it isn’t what I would consider a victory. But at this time, what I have been told is a “dark time in American and Gay History” we need to try and stay positive about the situation.

As far as proposal two is concerned, yes, it is really shitty that it has been passed. But at the same time, this is just one battle in the war for equal rights for the GLBT community. Now for me, this would be an easy time for me to give up as I already have the ability to get married but will I? No. Because I know that this is not right, I know that in my heart, that marriage is for those who love each other, not for those who hate. If you want to protect marriage, Mr. Bush and the rest of you right wing extremists, then you shouldn’t be married. You are destroying it by showing that it is okay to hate to protect an institution of love. Now is the time for us to continue the fight. When the other side is taking a break and celebrating that they have won, let’s sneak in and show them that they are wrong. Show them that we aren’t going to win this war, because that is what this is. This is a war for equal rights. So let’s fight, so we can win and show those conservative, right wing extremists what we are made of. Oh, and as a point of reference, this proposal, which is unconstitutional, there are 5 law suits currently against it and some people I know from HRC and the ACLU are meeting Friday to find a judicial way to defeat it.

As far as George W., I know that most of you know how I feel about him. I still feel that yes, he is an idiot without half of a functioning brain and yes, I am including the alleged brain of Dick Cheney. But at the same time, it is only another four years and in the grand scheme of things, that isn’t the end of the world. It’s no reason for us to give up or move out of the country. Let’s put it this way. Bush will more likely than not do a lot of damage to the country in the next four years, however, we still have so many more years left in our lives and so many more years to see good things happen from our country. So many people that I have seen today have told me that they want to move to Europe or Canada and while if that is what you want to do then I’m not going to stop you but at the same time, I have just one thought: how can things change if all the young people leave? If all of us who are fair minded and are working for a positive change in America, what good could come? We would be quitting on our country and more or less saying we have no hope that things will get better in the future. But things will get better because we will make them better.

I usually find it really funny when people feel compelled to remind me that, as a young person, I am the future. But this is my reminder for everyone today. Hey guys, this just in. We are the future. 20 years from now, who will be the old people in charge? Sad to say but yes friends, some day we will be those old people. We will be the ones who are making important decisions. So for now, we might not see the results that we want but there is no reason for us to give up on America now. That’s not how democracy works. If George Bush is right and the terrorists “hate us because they can’t stand our freedom,” then let’s make America look like the freedom we are supposed to have. Don’t quit. We don’t get anywhere by quitting.

Okay, so I want to leave you with a quote I got in my email today. Hopefully this will be uplifting and we can take some of this steam from being pissed off and turn it into something positive.

“Thank you for your hardwork in our fight for equality. No one moment, no one setback determines the final outcome. This defeat hurts a lot but the question of full equality is not an “if” it is a “when”. You know that and we will persevere.“

Cheryl A. Jacques, President, Human Rights Campaign
