Staple Everything

Staple your damn mouth.

[But who would want me anyway...]

I have one of two mid-term papers that are due this week all finished. One more due tomorrow. I get to submit that one online so I'll be "working at home". 2 of my classes didn't meet this week and it was fricken sweet.

[I have nothing left to give]

Not much really to update on. Just writing 'cause I have an hour until my feminist film studies class. Class is kind of a joke. Not because it's a feminist class, but because of what we do. I would consider my self a feminist so I thought it was going to be a lot more interesting but it hasn't turned out that way. The class meets once a week and we watch a movie pretty much the whole class period. Then we blog on that movie and read abstract essays that go like this, "blah blah blah, vagina, blah." I thought we were going to be all like, "fuck people who don't believe in equality". We watched Basic Instinct in that class and one of the students had to leave due to the graphic sexuality. She looked to be very "pure" and churchy. You know, one of those kids whose parents doesn't want them to see the real world so they block them from everything violent and sexual. And so the first time that child sees something violent and sexual they don't know how to react to it. My parents didn't shield me from everything but they did limit the quantity. They also told me that I need to learn how to separate fantasy and reality. If you're a parent and you can't do that with your child because it's "weird" - just quit. But no one should take my opinion on this, I'm not a parent and I have no idea what I'm talking about. I honestly mean that. How could I have any understanding of how to raise children, I've never done it before. This is the trouble with blogs because you lose the timbre of the voice. I'm assuming people are thinking I'm being sarcastic when I say don't believe me because I'm an arrogant mo fo. But I seriously mean it. I have no experience being a parent, so I can't offer good advice. It's just how I feel. I just feel bad when people aren't educated on real life things.

[Accept the answers without a question, it's easier]

Anyone else bumping this new Senses Fail? I got a lot of mixed feelings for it, but it's Senses Fail, I could never hate it. It's tough Still Searching had to be their 2nd full length (I consider it their 3rd album though, 'cause that EP is so legit), 'cause that was a epic masterpiece. This new album doesn't sound as nearly as polished as Still Searching but Buddy comes through and speaks words that can lift any confused soul. I can't wait for the next time Senses Fail rolls through Minnesota so I can scream these new tunes out with them. Screaming is the right word too, a lot more screaming on this record. I'm pretty sure I've seen Senses Fail more than any other band. I want to know which song on this record was inspired by the latest Rambo movie. Oh, and how come Minnesota sucks for shows. So many tours skip over us. But I guess it's better than the Dakotas. This fall I'll be missing, Anberlin, Scary Kids, and Senses Fail. I chose not to go to the Chiodos 'cause Escape The Fate has fallen apart with the departure of Ronnie and their guitar player. But I do plan on hitting up this epic Underoath show. (I think I should not use the word epic.)

[turn my cuts into scars]

Well, I didn't want this blog to be long so I'm going to end it. Oh wait, no I'm not. I saw Quarantine this past weekend. I liked it of course, anything dealing with the death of stupid human beings and massive amounts of zombies is all good. There are some issues with it but nothing I couldn't get over. Check it out if you like zombo flicks. Just don't pay $10 for it like I did (Damn you AMC!).
