I read this today

I think it pretty much sums up the bitterness of gay people in America right now. Check it out:

OBAMA ELECTED PRESIDENT

Oh my god. I'm still in shock. Barack Obama has just been elected President of the United States. I cannot articulate how happy I am right now. It's crazy to think that our country has come so far. We are living history at this very moment.

God Bless the United States of America.

Thoughts on Homecoming

So, this week has been pretty tough because of Homecoming and the fact that I was not selected to be on Court. However, after a few long weeks of being depressed about it and a very tough Homecoming Week, I have come to the conclusion that I do not need to be on Court to feel good about all that I've done at Ohio State. Moreover, while I may not have been selected as an official representative of the University, I know that the system is flawed and, more importantly, I represent Ohio State everyday in the work I do.

I am truly happy that I have been granted the opportunity to have such great friends and mentors. Sphinx has been amazing and will continue to serve as a meaningful capstone experience to my 4 years at OSU. Being around so many Sphinxers and other great friends made me realize that that is what life is truly about: sharing our experiences with the ones we love. So simple, yet so overlooked.

p.s.

my neighbors are fucking right now, and I think my wall is going to come down any second.

Just thought you should know.

I have not forgotten about you...

I just am crazy busy with school work and, I guess, life in general. Honest.

a few things

1.) My apartment has officially turned into the seventh circle of hell. I literally have been laying on my livingroom floor, naked for the last 3 hours trying not to die of heat stroke.

2.) Orientation starts tomorrow! Words can't even communicate the excitement!

3.) I turn 21 in 6 days. s!t!f!u!

Spring Quarter Grades

So...I'm sort of bummed out right now. I just got my Spring Qtr. grades back and I didn't do so hot. Well, I guess I did well, with the exception of one class: Communication 602 - Magazine Writing. I started off doing well in the class, however, I slowly but surely let it all go to hell. It doesn't help that the only significant grades in the class are two 6 page articles. Truth be told, I didn't dedicate enough of my time to the class. I easily could have pulled an A, but instead I couldn't bring myself to prioritize and ended the class with a B- . For me, a B- is the worst grade i've ever gotten in college. I received another during freshman year. But, on the bright side, I received an A in my honors geography class and an A- in my Communication 637 class.

The biggest reason for being blue is that one of my goals in college was to graduate Magna Cum Laude (3.7). I'm pretty sure that this quarter has ruined any chance I had left. My GPA has now fallen to a 3.62. I highly doubt there is any way to raise it .08 in two quarters.

End scene.
