I see in Fight Club the strongest and smartest men who ever lived. I see all this potential and I see it squandered. Goddamnit an entire generation! Pumping gas and waiting tables, the slaves with white collars. Advertising has its taste in cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy shit we don't need. We're the middle-children of history, man. No purpose or place; we have no great war, no great depression. Our great war is a spiritual war - our great depression is our lives. We've all been raised on television to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires and movie gods and rock stars, but we won't. We're slowly learning that fact, and we're very, very pissed off.

Just to let anyone who still reads this blog know, there will be no more posts. At least for an extended period of time. I've realized I just have nothing to say on blogger.

My Computer Science class is awesome!!!! To start the girl to guy ratio is about 1:6. Very nice, and lots of the guys are extremely good looking. And then, my teachers really cool, he's working for his Ph.D. and is like 23. He doesn't take attendance, and really cares about the subject, which is awesome. Every single person in my class is majoring in computer science, so there aren't gonna be any annoying people that are holding the class back. I can't wait to really get into the class, plus I'm the only girl in my study group with 3 very hot guys. (:

So first day of classes, didn't start off very well. First of all I woke up early for my 8:00 history class, got all the way to the building, only to find out the days had changed to tues and thrus. So I head back to the dorms to catch some more sleep to be woken up by my mother telling me my brother is missing. Not such a great thing, but as he is 21, not too worried. So then I decided I'll ride my bike to Calc as it's all the way across campus. BAD IDEA. I was confronted with the biggest hill in existance. I almost cried. And my gears weren't working right so it was even harded to bike it up than it should. I ended up lugging my bike up the last half of the hill and got rid of it at the first bike rack I could find. It's still there. However, after a horrible start, calc made my day a lot better. My calc class is tiny, only like 17 people, and they all seem really nice, the professor's really smart and the class was actually interesting. I'm excited about the class. Then I found this awesome little lounge place with couches and stuff for hang out in for the hour between that and my political science class. That class is going to be a breeze. 300 people, lecture about "Why We Have Government" and "What taxes are." No problems there. My lit class is awesome! I've already read half the books and my teacher really knows what she's talking about, even though she has an extremely thick spanish accent. There's only like 15 people is that class which is really cool too. I'm not used to such small classes. And our first book to read is Candide. I'm like I read that 2 months ago! And we're reading the Death of Ivan Illich, which I also just read. So I'm pretty excited about classes. I have tons of work though already, which kind of sucks, but whatever. It's not like I didn't expect it.

So haven't updated in a while. Prolly cause there isn't much to say. UGA is awesome. My roommate's real cool which is nice, I'm very happy I didn't get some freak. I learned how to make coffee!!!! That's a big thing, for me, so you should be proud. My DVD player stopped working though ): Garrett says I have to buy this cord thingy, but I don't want to. I got a loft bed though, and it is soo cool, I love it. There's tons of room and stuff, and yes I know I'm not the most descriptive, get over it. It's weird being here though. It's different than living at a house in so many ways, including the fact that your always surrounded by friends, which is cool. It's odd though, I don't feel like it's real yet, I feel like I'm on some extended vacation or something, I guess that'll change when I start classes. Speaking of classes, I looked at my calc book and almost died. It's ALL proofs. There's nothing else. It's pretty cool though, I'm actually excited about starting classes. God I'm such a dork. I talked to this senior who's a Comp Sci major for a long time and felt like an idiot afterwards, but I can't wait to start those classes, they seem awesome. It's kind of weird though, I'm really not all that excited about starting debate. I almost wish they didn't give me money because then I could do whatever I wanted, but now I feel like I have an obligation to the team and stuff, but I really don't want to start doing that much work. Hopefully I'll get more into it as the season starts. Anyway I'm off to get dinner and see Uptown Girls. Not too excited about that, but it's something to do.

I've gotta say Colorado is just beautiful. I don't think I've ever seen some of the places like this. I mean I still like Georgia more, I like the green, but the mountains here are just breathtaking. I can't even describe then, pictures will be coming later. Anyway it's a bit hot here, like over a hundred, and no one seems to have air conditioning, which can get a bit annoying, but it's still cool. Aspen though, not at all what it's cracked up to be. Like I didn't like it at all. Houses there that are smaller than my old house would be around 10 million and have a view of the city, NOT of the mountains. And if any of you thought Aspen could actually be considered a city, your terribly wrong. It's like the size of downtown Alpharetta, only 4 blocks on each side. Oh well. So being bored as I am I decided to take this quiz thingy, so here you go:

1. Kucinich, Cong. Dennis, OH - Democrat (100%)
2. Dean, Gov. Howard, VT - Democrat (90%)
3. Edwards, Senator John, NC - Democrat (75%)
4. Kerry, Senator John, MA - Democrat (73%)
5. Gephardt, Cong. Dick, MO - Democrat (73%)
6. Moseley-Braun, Former Senator Carol IL - Democrat (67%)
7. Sharpton, Reverend Al - Democrat (64%)
8. Lieberman Senator Joe CT - Democrat (63%)
9. Graham, Senator Bob, FL - Democrat (57%)
10. Libertarian Candidate (43%)
11. Bush, George W. - US President (28%)
12. Phillips, Howard - Constitution (12%)
13. LaRouche, Lyndon H. Jr. - Democrat (0%)

This week's been good. The Braves won last night, which rocked, along with finally seeing a game in Turner Field. It was a little sad Sara's family was Cubs fans, so not lotsa cheering, but still very cool. Also, winning Trivia pretty awesome. Haven't done that in a while. Don't like complete sentences apparently. Going to Colorado at 4:45 in the morning tomorrow, which won't be so much fun. But I finally get to see my puppy again which makes me very happy. I don't like being far away from her. She's gonna be mad at me ):

So I decided it was time for a new blog. The old was was getting on my nerves, I didn't like blue, and the title wan't happy. This is more me. It's half stolen, half my creation. And the song's one of my favorites. What do ya think?

Oh, and I'm not really sure why there's a big break under the first post, I can't fix it, so ignore it.

Just saw When Harry met Sally, and I'm now throughly depressed. I lay in bed crying for an hour after seeing it. I don't normally do that. The reason is that it reminded me way to much of a friendship/relationship that I had. You know how you have a friend that you talk to for 6 hours every day. That you know what they are doing every day. You know what they are thinking when the pause in a conversation, or what the shrug of their shoulders mean. A friend that you turn up at their house in tears and they calm you down. I've only had one friend like that. And we had to go and make it a "relationship." That ruined everything. We couldn't talk about everything anymore. We drifted. And I don't miss the relationsip at all. I miss the friendship. I miss getting home from school getting online and waiting for him to get online so I could talk to him until one or two in the morning and we went to bed. That was my life for a good while. That's what I miss. I've tried so hard to get that friendship back. But it's so hard. I didn't realize until tonight that all I want back is the friendship. I'm trying to do that right now. It's hard. I just want that friendship. Can girls be friends with guys after all?

Edited to add: No
