I don't think people like me belong in the world... I have too much personality and am too passionate about life.
If I was a man people would hear me & want to listen... and I could have made a difference or be making a difference right now... and I would have moved up a long time ago instead of being stagnant... I would have been sucessful if I was a man and people would never discredit my thoughts or ideas or think I am just some girl who knows nothing about anything.
Why is it when u have an expressive personalitiy people say you are crazy? Personality is a natural trait of human beings and something that makes us distinct and unique from one another. No one on this planet has the same personality. Imagine if we were all the same, life would be so boring.
Why is it when u r creative people think you are stupid? Creativity isn't something you memorize... it is being created from you, like improv ideas from your brain. Anyone can memorize.
Why is it when a woman expresses sexuality people think she is a slut? The world judges her on her sexual past or the way she looks... her thoughts or ideas will be discredited based on this yet sex is a natural part of being a human being. No one ever does this to a man, it is ok and natural for a man to be sexual... why are women spose to supress theirs sexuality then?
On Sat I so wanted to live, tonight/this morning, I so want to die. I don't know when the day will come when we stop judging people on color or sex or the way we look... I don't know when the day will come when we just look each other in the eye and really see who's inside. I don't think people like me belong in the world, but we so do... I just don't know where my personality fits into this world.

Am so extremely sick... this is the first time I've been able to get up and/or move today w/out spewing up something. And I can't keep even keep water down, making me dehydrated and weak. Its horrible that I did this to myself by drinking last night... which is also a combination of my friend w/a stomach virus. I know the booze brought down my immune system opening a huge door for any bugs to get in or if they were in, the totally fester up.
Can't write any more... going to go vomit up the tiny bit of water I just drank. I want some gatorade, crackers, pepto, and a banana... but everyone I know is trapped at a festival today. Help me!
This totally reminds me of when I came out of surgery... was so sick from the anaesthesia that I couldn't eat. They gave me food, I took a bite of lettuce and vomitted it up. I was hooked up to a catheter and of course, an IV and couldn't fucking move because I just had surgery. There were compression things hooked up to my legs (to keep the blood circulating so I didn't loose my legs).... I was so freaked out but the worst part of it was the nausiation. Someone should make a documentary about surgery... what the patiend goes through. Everyone lies to you about... saying you'll be fine or it's not so bad. But that is bullshit and they tell u this so u get it... if people told the truth, we'd all be scared shitless to go in. Well, I am not bullshitting, back surgery is fucking horrible and the recovery is so fucking hard and painful. I guess a mockumentary would make it easier for people to deal with things like this... but when u live it, it's not so funny.
I feel horrible for people who have to go through chemo... because they feel like I feel now, but probably ten-fold. I can't believe I made myself feel this way and am missing out on being with my friends.
I gotta go... man o man, this is horrible. I really have to be done w/booze after this... it's not fair to my spirit especially being alone and sick is so scarey but I have to deal w/back pain every day... I should make my spirit suffer even more.
it's july 19, I needgatorade, crackers, pepto, and a banana... moral support and HELP!

Нашел у Монти Пайтонов скетч о швейцарских часах. Вспоминается немецкий таможенный контроль, очень милые ребята. Цитата: "Schweiz ist bekannt als Uhrmacherland. Wie können Sie beweisen, dass Sie diese Uhr nicht in der Schweiz gekauft haben?"

Для тех, кто в танке, в Швейцарии в этот день национальный праздник и у меня следовательно выходной - ура!

Вопросы почти все тривиальные. Тест явно не расчитан на носителей русского языка.
Вопрос 11 вызвал у меня сомнения. Действительно ли происходит слово "немец" от "немой"... Я попался на вопрос о Красной площади. Тут у меня тоже нет уверенности, обязана ли она своим названием "крас(н)оте".

| Курьезы сайта одноклассники.ру |
[16 Jul 2008|06:02pm] |
На сайте одноклассники.ру появилась новая (и совсем не бесплатная) функция.
Цитирую описание: http://w9.odnoklassniki.ru/dk?st.cmd=helpPhotoInsurance&tkn=2310
"Застрахуй свои фотографии от плохих оценок! Теперь Вы можете застраховать любую из своих фотографий от плохих оценок... Страховая компания «выплачивает» Вам баллы, недостающие до оценки «отлично» (+1, +2, +3 и +4 соответственно)."
Можно подумать, что рейтинг фотографий вообще кого-то интересует. Предположим, у кого-то этих фоток целых сорок наберется. Если каждую из них застраховать, получится по всей видимости достаточно круглая сумма.
Ну и потом размещать заведомо безобразные снимки и по этой причине их страховать мне кажется абсурдом. Проще и дешевле будет пользоваться услугами фотостудии.
Интересно они на вырученные деньги доделают человеческий интерфейс? До комфорта/надежности ЖЖ или фейсбука им такими темпами еще понадобится не одна пятилетка...
"Компания «АльфаСтрахование» объединяет ОАО «АльфаСтрахование» и ООО «АльфаСтрахование-Жизнь» ". Они вообще известны кому-либо?

| I'm...back |
[15 Jul 2008|11:31am] |
Now that I have daily internet (8 whole hours at work everyday!) I figured I can start getting active again. So I'm back at Georgetown, overpaying for housing but I had to do it because I couldn't spend the entire summer at my parent's house. Like....I move in and my entire closet is filled with my dad's old soviet university physics textbooks and my sisters extra toys and clothes. I didn't even take my clothes out of my suitcases the entire time. The bed was mostly occupied by the new cat. And I felt too guilty to go explore NYC or do anything most days because I felt like I should be helping around the house or helping to take care of my sister. So I decided it was better to just move to DC. I have a new job with a firm called Social Technologies. It only pays minimum wage, which barely even covers rent, but hopefully it helps me out later on. I'm mostly doing research on Russian markets and stuff, its not too bad. And all the supervisors are nice, so no big complaints. I also got hired at Annie's Cream Cheese, a pretty well-known designer vintage store around here, I start next weekend. The rest of the time I spend trying to decide what to do with my life in a year....I can't believe college is almost done! I start studying for the LSAT and got pretty good results, but I'm just not sure about being a lawyer. So I've been doing some other research. The fellowship office at school says that my chances at getting a Fullbright are nil with my current essays, maybe I'll just apply for a teaching assistanship in France. I'm also considering the MSc program in Environment and Development at the London School of Economics. Its only a year, so I won't have THAT much debt, and it might help me get a nice consulting job. I just don't wanna live in the states. I know its the perfect country for most people-all the opportunities, etc. But I hate the food, the work-first mindset, the men, the lack of any aesthetic or fashion sense, lack of interest in anything but making money or being successful. I just don't want a cushiony life in some suburb with 2.5 kids, a bmw, a "perfect" husband who I'll stop having sex with after the first six months, and constantly worrying about food, exercise and gaining weight. I want to see the world, experience new things, go to museums, be surrounded by stylish and sophisticated people, have intelligent conversations, fall in love, eat real food...its not gonna happen here, I know it.
