Bitter
Jill Sobule, Richard Barone


I could slip, I could fall
Down that mean and awful hall
With the other jealous bitches
And the bitter grumbling men

I could sneer, I could glare
Say that life is so unfair
And the one who made it, made it
'Cuz her breasts were really big

Well I don't wanna get bitter
I don't wanna get cruel
I don't wanna get old before I have to

I could bitch, I could moan
Say I want to be left alone
But that's not really true
Because I like my time with you

Till you rant and you rave
Wishing fat folks to their grave
But I feel sorry for them
You say they get what they deserve

Well I don't wanna get bitter
I don't wanna get cruel
I don't wanna get old before I have to

I don't wanna get jaded
Petrified and weighted
I don't wanna get bitter like you
Like you, with the darts in your eyes
Like you, with disdain for mankind
I was charmed, now I wonder

Well I don't wanna get bitter
I don't wanna get cruel
I don't wanna get old before I have to

So I'll smile with the rest
I'll wish everyone the best
And know the one who made it
Made it 'cuz she was actually pretty good

Well I don't wanna get bitter
I don't wanna get cruel
I don't wanna get old before I have to

Mexican Wrestler
Jill Sobule, Robin Eaton


Sometimes I wish that I was an angel
A fallen angel who visits your dreams
And in those dreams I'd blow you a message that says
You really want me

Sometimes I wish that I was a wrestler
A Mexican wrestler in a red vinyl mask
And I might grab you, body slam you, and maybe cause
physical harm
But when we would land
I might take pity on you
I can crack all your ribs
But I can't break your heart

You will never love me
And this I can't forgive
That you will never love me
As long as I will live

Sometimes I wish that I was a beauty
A beautiful girl who was still 21
And I'd turn your head as well as your buddies
And I could afford to play hard to get
We'd go to parties and you'd show me off
And I'd go home with someone else

You will never love me
And this I can't forgive
And it will always bug me
As long as I will live
You will never love me
Why should I even care
It's not that you're so special
You're just the cross I bear
You will never love me

why, oh why, am i perputually a freshman in the WPI eye??


yeah, so every year when i go into myWPI at the beginning of the year, i'm 'welcomed' to the newest freshman program.. like insight. what's insight.. it's friggin' a bunch of freshman living on the same floor and stuff. i'm not a freshman. i don't live on campus. geez.

i'm never graduating. i guess i've walked on the seal too many times.. and i haven't even tried reversing the curse. phew :P

in other news. i should be in bed. my foot hurts a lot. and only 33 more days of A-term. thank god it's not a semester.

"i will not be here forever so i will not waste anytime... everybody falls, in small degrees... it's gravity" -jjg

decent start to a-term.. diffeqs is packed but looks like it'll be ok.. just hoping to pass..

proj management will be like 1030 last year.. sounds like salazar is teaching a lot of the same stuff... it'll be trying to stay awake, but should be ok.

haven't had mg2950 yet, have that tomorrow... and erged for 25minutes today to start the daily exercising off decently...

prolly workin' this weekend at vic.. and doing homework through most of it too i'm sure...

otherwise, just tired.. need to laundry.. waiting for big d to return (if ever).. gotta read.. not even starting the diff eq's... gonna need a lot of review... it's been a year since i took calc and two since i took physics/mechanics.. so yeah. blah :P

i suppose it's time to blog it up....

classes start thursday.. blllahhh.. it's ok though.. i'm ready to kick into the routine. hopefully i can find a job on campus soon.. although it sucks big time if you don't have work study here.

not much is new... so much fun living in 94w.. this is going to be a good year... at least, we'll make it a good year... cause that's the way it should be. yeeeeah.

classes this term should be 'interesting'... business ethics, project management, and good ol' diffeqs... and b-term more civil and social classes. woohoo...

we'll see if i survive tomorrow.. i'm sure it will be good :P

get over yourself.

Friday, August 16

You are Kermit!
Though you're technically the star, you're pretty mellow and don't mind letting others share the spotlight. You are also something of a dreamer.




take the which one of the trading spaces cast are you? quiz!


good times last night... clay time... sakara tokyo... and 1/2 of high fidelity :P very fun though

and like malia said.. claytime could be come an obsession.. or more like an addiction.. it was all sorts of fun.. we have to go more and make more crack-headed dishes for us...

other than that.. today REALLY is my last day at the ODAWP office.. it was really supposed to be last friday.. then yesterday.. but today for sure.. although it looks like there's a buttload of work to be done.. *sighs* it's ok though

that's 'bout it

and when they carve my stone
all they need to write on it
is 'once lived a man who got all he ever wanted'
tell me something, who could ask for more
than to be living in a moment you would die for

better than expected.. and then i hit the mall and bought jocelyn a kick ass present, visited malia at bath & body works and of course bought stuff and now i'm home...

on the slate for tomorrow.. oil change (or at least make an appointment for one).. finish the soldering (cause we have to).. go to the reach end ceremony thingy prolly.. hitting up BJ's for a table.. more birthday shopping with ben? (yeah, let me know man)... last minute cleanup and stuff for the rooomies arrival on saturday!! yay!!
