the female gaze

Look with your eyes, not with your hands.


Such a minute fraction of this life do we live: so much is sleep, tooth-brushing, waiting for mail, for metamorphosis, for those sudden moments of incandescence: unexpected, but once one knows them, one can live life in the light of their past and the hope of their future.

Worst Idea Ever...

For fear of ulcers and irreversible stressed-out crabbiness... I am beginning to think that this upcoming Middlebury sojourn is definitely up there with some of my more harebrained ideas and lousy plans. I really want to go, especially after catching up with little-brother cohorts last night, but the timing couldn't be worse and I need to pull off a particularly impressive display of in-transit genius in order to make it through next week alive...

In my defense, I wrote 14 legal-pages worth of essay in my avant garde exam last night in about two hours... that was a whole lot of ink to spill to structural film, a semi-pornographic display, and ideas about intertextuality. I hope I never have to relive that again.
