why do we say 'he/she left me' when we break up?
It sounds crappy. Just thinking to yourself “I got left behind” just sucks a bunch of ass (not for me. I usually do the leaving in my relationships). But its just such horrible terminology.
It sounds so final. It sounds as if you’re going to be lost for good. Like no man or woman will ever want you. Like you’ve got a big fat red sign on your head that says ‘LEFT...
I'm tired, you're tired..
but mostly I’m just bored.
I think I should study now and wait til my parents get home. Blah
But first! my favorite online robot romance porn-ish comic!

like sunlight through ice cubes
You know you’ve never taken a good look at the sky until you’re on your back falling into it - drowning in it. I’ve claimed to have seen God before. Like during sunsets when the sun dies behind a mirage of clouds. In between the flashes of gold, purple and mercury, I thought I saw Jesus reading upon a cloud, glasses and all.
I woke up at twelve, saw dust streaming in, dancing...
thinkandconquer:
I’m so annoyed at how a lot of people (mainly the ones at school) think I’m stupid. I mean, it really doesn’t matter at all, but I hate that I’m constantly being underestimated. I don’t know what it is, maybe it’s my physical appearance or my being quiet and shy… I don’t know. Do I need to wear sign with my GPA on it or something? Because that seems to be the only thing that...
I am very giddy
And I have no idea about what. Just happy as a motherfucker. And usually I would try to examine why but I’m not going to this time. It just feels nice. I’m always content yes, but right now, I’m just super chirpy.
I hope you feel the same way. Really.
Did you cash in all your dreams?
RIP, J.D. Salinger

A Literary Icon has just passed.
Now we’ll see whether the rumors were true.

Loved his work.
Well I’m happy for him. Betcha he was tired living among us phonies. Rest in peace :)

I adored the speech. I think it hit on everything Congress needed to hear. Like STOP PLAYING BIPARTISAN GAMES AND START MAKING CHANGES FOR THE PEOPLE.
Obama was looking good.
I’m excited for the new political year :)
In other news: Just submitted some scholarships, going to do english, and will sparknote the shit out of A Tale of Two Cities.

Three dollars in my pocket and hitting Jamba Juice with the girls (and guy) tomorrow.
Should be fun. Things to do tomorrow:
Sparknote the shit out of a Tale of Two Cities. I need a freaking refresher.
Ask Wiesty when the competition will end next Saturday
Email Mrs. Williamson

Something else I can’t remember.

Listen, skank, get off the stage.
I'm miles from where you are.
I think it's Joy's bedtime :)
Brown emailed me for an interview!
Bout to respond to that, pronto :)
Very nervous (if I get it) because I haven’t had an interview yet. Hopefully I charm the socks off of ‘em. Hopefully its a man.
Gah!
Can’t wait to tell my dad.

Sleep now, starry-eyed wanderer.
if you ever really wanna get lost, follow me.
I feel frustrated for some reason
I don’t even know why.
Not frustrated, just weary. I think I desperately need this upcoming weekend. I need to rejuvenate.
Nah, perhaps I need to write.
Yes, writing sounds lovely.
Writing and tea.

And what would they find?
Could they translate into words my yearn to be important? Could they paragraph what the passing of time has done to me? Could they begin to ink the messy layers of my passionate heart? Could they bleed - bleed for me - the beauty that hollows out my eyes. Could they understand why the fact that he wants me scares the shit out of me?
And maybe...

Tell me your deepest darkest secrets, or bullshit to me. Make me laugh, make my day or just talk to me about nothing at all. I want to hear from you - even the insignificant things.

I take my last post back - you can't fucking...
This is me, take it or leave it. And after thinking about it, if you don’t want to hear about hairy balls or the intricacies of intercourse, you don’t have to talk to me.
Or you could exit the room, or you could tell me to be quiet and I’d happily oblige. But I don’t think its good to set yourself to people’s standards.
And that’s all I have to say about that.
I realize now, that I should find myself a filter...
Because I say things without thinking (as we all do), but I do it copiously. So much that whenever we’re talking sex and Beloved in English class the very vulgar comments just keep coming and coming (and along with them the death stares from Ms. Karl).
And you know, people laugh and say, “Oh, well that’s just Joy. I wouldn’t have it any other way.” but I’m sure...
Goodnight, universe
Joy has Calculus to ignore, and applications to not finish.
Haha, this three day weekend was excellent. Hopefully it rains tomorrow. I hope there’s a storm. I’d really like a storm. Shake things up.
Goals for this week:
BE MORE PRODUCTIVE.
Ha. Ha ha ha. Yeah right.
forgive me, father
Dad: Joy! I spent six hundred dollars fixing your car window!
Mom: Six hundred!
Dad: Let this be the last time you play with that damn window!
Mom: Mhm!
*silence*
Me: ...At least we have our health? ^^;

Ten dollars is not so bad, guys. Its nothing compared to what other people have lost.
And also click to give at The Hunger Site. Each click gives money to sponsors who then donate the proceeds to charities and organizations. Continue to click the tabbed browsers to donate to Breast Cancer Research, Animal Rescue, and Saving the Rainforest.
We have to all do our part.

Since tumblarity died I don’t have much motivation to post things. I just reblog and write crap.
So happy Tumblarity is gone. So people like this ^ can get the fuck off Tumblr.
We’re starting to weed out the idiots who thought this was a social game.

saper-lipopette asked: Dear Joy. I think you're writing is amazing. It always brings forth an emotion that I never knew I had in me. I wish I could do that. I envy your talent and the fact that you've definitely found your niche. Where's mine? Help me find mine? Anyway, I tell you this a lot but I'm a broken record and its good to hear. You're beautiful and so very talented. Remember that pact...

in response -
She is lovely. And she could never know. Eyes all wild and tongue hot and carmine, she never could run out of smiles. Always a supply of sunshine in her blood, a surplus of love, more than enough sun. She is an ATM for wise words and wiser truths. An old soul?
Yes. I’d like to think so.
She bears herself in homespun and threadbare, head held modestly low, eyes turned to the side, shy. And I...

as I was devotion-ing I loved & wrestled with a few things. here they are:
first. I was reading from a book called Velvet Elvis by Rob Bell - a book that strives to repaint the Christian faith (not solely my own interpretation, mister Bell has printed just that “striving to repaint the Christian faith” as his subtitle). I like it. some parts I find hard to swallow due to his...
Dear tumblr,
After I finish my Calculus homework I’m due for a movie (probably The History Boys), a snack, and then some tea. Perhaps some writing. I’ve been working all day. At this point, any form of relaxation would be welcome.
Tomorrow includes applying for scholarships and studying for Academic Decathlon (my spirits have been rejuvenated).
Wishing you all a lovely three-day weekend,
- Joy
