alright, kids, it's not finals week this time.
if you want to post something positive anonymously, do it here.
pleeeeease be nice. say nice things. things that you normally wouldn't tell people because you're embarrassed to, but that would make them happy.

many thanks to [info]drabheathen for the original idea.

doooooo iiiiiiit.

(although it might be a good idea to steer clear of this so that you'll actually be able to get work done!)

[edit: okay, fine. i know obies have a hard time not being angsty or negative. it's okay if you can't be positive; just try not to be particularly mean, yeah?]

I still can't talk to you about everything, but we're getting there. After all, it's only been a couple of weeks.

Thanks for being a great guy.

I posted before that I wanted a three-some. Some of you might remember. Well, now I have the greatest guy ever, but I still want girls, and am allowed pussy by said guy. But, even so, I feel guilty for wanting pussy. Why?

i'm scared. i'm scared of you not liking me, i'm scared of me not liking you as much as i think i do, i'm scared i can't compete with those other guys you aren't having any luck with. i'm scared of you in general. we don't know each other nearly well enough, and i really want to be friends first, but i'm scared that by the time we do, you'll have decided that i've already had my chance.

and yet every time i start to think it isn't worth it, i find myself at your doorstep.

I don't go to Oberlin, I'm at its GLCA sister school Albion instead.

I obsessed over transferring there all last year. It seemed so perfect.

Now it just seems very insular and militantly political-- to the same inane extremity as a super-conservative school.

A friend of mine here wants to transfer there now. She'll definitely get in and go.

I'm so jealous.

I transfered. Best decision I've ever made.

I left DePauw, a super-conservative school. The liberalism here is nothing like the banal uniformity of conservative America. Rock on, Oberlin!

Hate to burst your bubble, but all you have to do is talk (about Anything). It can be hard with people you don't know, especially if you don't share many interests; but it's easier than it might appear.

A,
I still love you, I will always love you. I wish there was some way we could work things out. I want there to be a way, with every fiber of my being.

I've started writing opuses to you, and believe it or not, that third chapter you've never read, that's all about you. Sometimes, one writes things without even realizing who they're meant for. But they're meant for you. That whole book is meant for you. You are Marco, you've always been marco, with the black tendrils of hair and the languid stare.

.“'I’m not just resting my feet here, sir,' the stranger continued, and took a larger gulp of water. 'I left everything I knew to lose myself, to lose some fucking image people had of me, to lose the pain of what any man in our day and age has seen. And I was alone, alone for a really long time, and that was okay. But then—“ he stopped, took a breath. “When you have that connection, you can’t do without it anymore, you see? I used, to wander for months and never said a word to a soul, and here I am babbling like a goddamn brook, like a river flooding over. I’ve been broken into, I’ve been broken.'
...Roosevelt interjected, getting into the spirit of his role as he had determined it to be. 'But, patron, you mentioned something ‘bout being broken into. Something must have had a point. Something made you stop.'
The stranger gave him an impatient look. Of course he was going to come to it, he had to. He was only delaying the telling of it, as much as he knew he needed to. But he didn’t tell it, instead he said, very quickly, 'But then one day there was a point. A point like a line, A line like a cord that bound me to someone. A connection.' Roosevelt noted the light in his eyes, and also the softness in his voice.

yeah, if someone wants to steal that, i don't fucking care. it's for my love. love.

I'm a first year. I don't know if I fit in yet. I love Fairchild, I love my classes, but I don't have a set group of friends to be with when I need support, I don't even feel like I could call anyone to go to dinner with me.
I want to love it here, I want to feel like I belong.
I have wondered if I was gay since I was in Junior High. I am scared to find out...

To my residents,

Thanks for being the greatest bunch out there. I was afraid at first because I don't know how to be an amazing RA, and I don't know what you expect of me. But despite all that, and despite my automatic shyness and awkwardness, I've found friends in all of you. Much love.
