The abolishing of self and form, beauty that will undo the creature in us. Words and imagery that hopefully make you want to dance and sing as much as they do me.

"I put my hand on him. Touching him was always so important to me. It was something I lived for. I never could explain why. Little, nothing touches. My fingers against his shoulder. The outsides of our thighs touching as we squeezed together on the bus. I couldn’t explain it, but I needed it. Sometimes I imagined stitching all of our touches together. How many hundreds of thousands of fingers brushing against each other does it take to make love?"

I just spent the last two days at an Asian American leadership conference because I had to take pictures for the Public Asian. I am officially more in touch with asian culture than all of my asian friends combined. NO MORE AMANDA. NO MORE HELLO KITTY. no more holmdel-FOB pictures. No more. Poland/Austria/Germany/Russia/Ireland forever.
Boring, I know, but I love this movie: its historical implications, its gender role reversal, Gene Kelly, everything. And Paris also starts with a “P”. I never said I was a writer/particularly interesting, people.
My psych team No Dice made a PSA about how fun exercise can be for class. PLEASE watch this video, click the link, and re-blog. Send this on! Part of our grade is going to stem from the number of views we can get.
Reason why college classes may not be a total waste of time: watched this with my class today (Last Tango in Paris). Aside from the brutal rape scene, the movie was pretty hot BUT WHAT DOES IT SAY ABOUT ANTI-AMERICANISM? is the US figuratively raping Europe? this is what our professor asks us as soon as the movie concludes. I’m sorry, I just watched a lot of sex, I can not talk to anyone right now.
My little brother is getting an apartment his freshman year because he doesn’t like his roommates. Right now his “dorm” is a newly-renovated Victorian house with giant bay windows and window seats overlooking Lake Champlain. -insert dramatic commentary about horrific Centreville Hall- At least this means I have a real home base up in New England?
