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. A grad student muses on her life, film, friends, politics, reality televizzle, and music.

Relish I just bought an ibook... it's not every day a girl spends a grand, let me have my moment. Now it's a race back to Madison, and with any luck, the post office will delight me and have the computer waiting for me on my Wednesday arrival. Whatever doubts I might have had, this confirms that I am officially a geek - even with all of this money burning a hole in my pocket - what do I buy - fancy purses, design items for the home, put it toward a car, a week in Bangkok... no, a computer, but a slick one at that. I guess that makes me a stylish geek. Also, I just looked over this Law School Blog, and while it doesn't pertain to me, I want to send the link to some of my lawyer friends, just a mental note to myself for the time being. |
