sorry i haven't posted in a while. Life has kind of been stressful and sucky. Key friendships fell apart, were put back together, and then fell apart again only to be put back together once more. This emotional roller coaster was exacerbated by a junior high style web of lies where i told someone a secret who told someone a secret who told someone a secret who told someone else a secret, who happened to be the person the initial secret was about.

Lessons i have learned this summer:
1. I do NOT enjoy keeping people's secrets. AS much as i love a good chisme session next time i here the phrase "ok you CANNOT tell anyone this" i am going to say "stop! i don't want to know!"
2. i need to have multiple friend groups/worlds so that i can have places to escape.
3. I need to remember NOT to mix my worlds otherwise there is no escape.
4. Friends should not date other friends in your circle because it complicates things and adds to the aforementioned "web of lies." Which concludes with the realization that as much as my high school fantasy was for my best friend to fall in love with me, this really does not work in real life, and thus i am growing up and getting over my Pacey/Dawson/Joey love fest.

On another note, barack obama has stolen my boyfriend. And on yet one last note, my life has revolved around books, articles, and a windowless office for 6 hours a day. I have all this shit to do before sept 15th so i can reach candidacy so that i can dissertate and get my phd 3 years from now. My friend Hugo just defended his disseration yesterday and afterwards it left me wondering, "is that all there is to grad school?"

The only real outfit i put together last week. Otherwise i dressed like a slob for the most part

Shirt = converse for target, cut offs = citizens self made, belt = banana republic, green polka dot flats = coach, earings = mom's hometown in Mexico.

monthly mixed tape party tonight with the theme "boogie nights." Yesterday i managed to procure a totally amazing zip up, short sleeve, denim full body suit. Can you guys even handle that?? can i even handle that???? will post hopefully tomorrow if not too hung over.

this is why we hang out with the gays. there would be no interdating and if there were, they wouldn't care to keep it a ssssecret because we would all be blabbing about it and blaze on with our lives.
