YAY!!!!! i know it is soon to hear from me again but since i share all my sorrows with you i felt i should share a triumph (of sorts). i have just printed out a rough final draft of my entire thesis! this is a very joyous occassion as this goddamn thing has been consuming my entire life for some time now. it's multi-coloured b/c my black ink ran out and my discussion is rather crappy, but at least it's done! hopefully i can have the final draft done for tuesday. and, my results actually turned out to be very interesting. i would tell you all but it would take up a lot of space and bore the vast majority of you... power to jenn for kicking some boy's ass! very impressive. and for the sorrow part of my post: i hate it when i get left out of things. there are 3 of us girls doing our theses in the same lab and the other 2 always do lab stuff without me. i've gotten used to that, but this morning they went out to breakfast and didn't even invite me :( i always get left out of things. luckily i am so tired lately that everything just rolls off my back. no stress no offense. it's not bad. apart from being completely useless after 9pm. i am boycotting the oscars tonight. i am bitter about the shafting of fight club. that was such an amazing movie and it's being completely ignored. i'm not a big fan of violence (despite what you might think from my support of jenn's ass kicking and my love of this movie) but i don't think that fight club should have been ignored just b/c it was bloody (i don't see anyother reason for it to be ignored). it was clever, entertaining, thought provoking...everything a movie should be. why am i getting so bitter about a movie? do you think anyone ever has a right to be bitter. one of my philo profs thinks that bitterness is anger that lasts beyond a time where anyone else is willing to sympathize with it. but how can you just let something go? if you have a right to be angry why should you stop just b/c everyone is sick of hearing about it. plus to let it go you often need to vent and when no one will listen to you anymore how can you vent that festering anger? hmmm...i'm not really bitter about the movie i'm bitter about the stupidity of people. today i opened the paper to be greeted with an article about how feminism is bad b/c some nutty women went around a church spraying anti-religious slogans. so now all of feminism promotes intolerance of religion. ok, i'm starting to ramble and i could go on for ages. just wanted to vent. don't know if i can let my bitterness go yet... -di he who hates is to be pitied, but he who loves is to be pitied more -german proverb +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
