As dysfuctional as these two may be...

with all of the making up, and the breaking up...

the fights, the tears, and the drugs...

there is true love at work here.

I want something like that.

Summer is finally here...

and I am going to allow myself to love...

after all, I do deserve it.

Perfection is a figment of the imagination.

Those that strive for perfection are simply fooling themselves.

I've tried for the perfect relationship,

and I failed... or rather, it failed.

Looking towards the future...

I want that beautiful chaos...

It keeps me on my toes.

Kiss me through the phone...

"I don't like being single, no. I live this fantastic life, full of all these magical things, and at the end of the day all I want to do is pick up my phone and share it with someone. The other day I'd sold a million records in the U.S. and I didn't have anyone to tell. It was actually a really lonely moment."

Public Service Announcement

Oh, and by the way... I'm deleting my facebook at the end of May... I'm going to focus on things that really matter... like social justice issues, environmental concerns, and public policy... I came to realize that so much time is wasted on these social networking sites... and for what reason? They are just another excuse to spend hours on end staring at a computer screen rather than going outside, reading a book, watching CNN, volunteering, developing ACTUAL relationships with people... I will however continue to blog and twitter [@SmellsLikePeas]... but I won't allow myself to get sucked in any deeper into the facebook craze.

peace & love.

As we go into the next two weeks, I'm going to take a break from blogging for a bit... final exams/papers require much attention...

but don't fret, I will be back on the 21st... and it will be worth the wait.

This summer is going to be amazing, I just know it.

******************************

Now, I'm going to invite you into my stream of consciousness...

When asked to describe my style, I say Park Avenue Hippie Chic if that makes any sense... in keeping with my new self-actualization, my look is beginning to change as well... these are my style inspirations: Shwayze, Dyshaun from Stylista, James Baldwin

******************************

What else can I tell you about? OH! I met Jessica Valenti a few days ago... Thursday to be exact... I'm not gonna go into extensive detail of who she is, but I'll say this much, she is one of the main reasons I was able to recognize that I am a feminist... she's an amazing author and such a cool person... =]

******************************

I am currently in search of a pair of cotton shorts either in a nice red, blue, or green color... though white wouldn't be bad either... so if you happen to find some, I'm a size 26 in men's... size 4 in women's... thanks!!!

******************************

I'm sure there is something I am forgetting... but I can't remember... OH!!! Prom... the pic is posted below as you can see, but here's a link to the other pics if you are wanting more... if the link doesn't work... lo siento/je m'escuse,/please forgive me... -->link<--

New York... in threes

"There are roughly three New Yorks. There is, first, the New York of the man or woman who was born there, who takes the city for granted and accepts its size, its turbulence as natural and inevitable. Second, there is the New York of the commuter--the city that is devoured by locusts each day and spat out each night. Third, there is New York of the person who was born somewhere else and came to New York in quest of something. Of these trembling cities the greatest is the last--the city of final destination, the city that is a goal. It is this third city that accounts for New York’s high strung disposition, its poetical deportment, its dedication to the arts, and its incomparable achievements. Commuters give the city its tidal restlessness, natives give it solidity and continuity, but the settlers give it passion. And whether it is a farmer arriving from a small town in Mississippi to escape the indignity of being observed by her neighbors, or a boy arriving from the Corn Belt with a manuscript in his suitcase and a pain in his heart, it makes no difference: each embraces New York with the intense excitement of first love, each absorbs New York with the fresh yes of an adventurer, each generates heat and light to dwarf the Consolidated Edison Company. . . ."

Matthew Shepard Act Passes HoR!!!!

I don't ever post two seperate posts in a day... but this is a VERY special exception... The following is courtesy of PerezHilton.com

On Wednesday, the US House of Representatives passed the Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act - also known as the Matthew Shepard Act.

Passing with a bipartisan majority, the bill will provide additional resources to local law enforcement in the investigation of crimes driven by race, ethnicity, gender, religion, national origin, sexual orientation, gender identity and disability.

Additionally, the bill will allow the feds to step into an investigation when local agencies can't or refuse to look into serious hate crimes.

The bill will also extend federally protected categories to include sexual orientation and gender identity.

Senator Edward Kennedy of Massachusetts will introduce the Senate version of the bill soon, and President Obama has suggested that he will sign the bill should it come to his desk.

President of the Human Rights Campaign, Joe Solmonese, said that "The nation cannot wait any longer to protect all of its citizens. We should all be able to walk the streets without fear."

Finally, equality... let's get on getting a marriage bill passed shall we... I wanna hit the aisle... j/k
