This Miranda July quote is my favorite of alltime
"Just because something's uncomfortable doesn't mean it's wrong. And just because you have your doubts about what you're doing, or you don't trust yourself 100 percent, that's normal. There's this illusion that people who do stuff are totally confident, and I've never been. I've been riddled with doubt through the whole thing. You know, with a few flashes of maybe, MAYBE this will be great."
--Miranda July, interviewed in ReadyMade mag
This aged little magazine quote clipping has been taped to my computer monitor for over a year. I read it whenever I'm stuck hating myself too much to be any kind of productive. It helps.
I decided to gank this quote from one of my fav blogs to read Sarah Spy. This quote really rings to me, now especially. There's so much that I want to do, but I think finding the starting point is the hardest thing to do. And who knows if I ever will be as successful as I know will be. At the end of the of the day I just want to apart of something great whether it be something of mine or some else.
I've got one final left, Philosophy 101, my last Gen. Ed. Hopefully forever. Not to worried I'm at B+ and a barely read the text. I just skim or get a kid from the class to reiterate the important parts.
I was talking 1 of my roommates yesterday and we had a indepth discussion about finals. Why is it that some teachers in fuckin kids over in the finals? Like a teacher tells you what to study for final yet ignores their statements and put stuff you never went over in class on the final? Many if not all, already know how overly critical/stressed about their grade already. I think it's unfair that so much one's grade has to be put into 1 test, even thought u just spent 15 weeks learning about it. We can came to the conclusion that school should either not have cumulative finals or have a cumulative final that is not excessively weighted. Thoughts?
Side note: just heard John Legend's first album for the first time in awhile.... we need to bring back the old Jlegend and forget this greenlight crap, although i am afan of that song.
anywho im going to bed. I'm excited about getting more than +4hours of sleep tonight, haven't had that in ahwile.
