Tuesday, September 28, 2004A Small Taste of ElderberryI'm far gone in this mass of plain people, where everyone looks like Ashton Kutcher and Anna Kournikova, except you can't catch one of them smiling for the cameras, let alone smiling at me, and there's no way they would bother to make eye contact in their pinkandgreen Abercrombie shirts, smelling like Bath and Body Works, walking like only money can walk. And who am I to walk as one of them, confidently insecure in my faded green shirts and tattered jeans (done by myself, of course, not some small oriental woman in a far away factory). These people have probably met one or two homo/bi/trans-sexuals in their entire life, and yet somehow have the capacity to stereotype EVERY SINGLE trait of EVERY SINGLE homo/bi/trans-sexual person, ever. I know this is commonplace, but at least most people have the decency not to vocalize their stereotypes. But i'm still being to lenient on the type of people i'm talking about: there a lot of people here that are straight up racist/sexist, and are proud of it.what...am...i...doing...here? don't get me wrong, i knew this was coming...i just expected for me to be able to take it as a grain of salt, ignore the idiots and enjoy not being in santa fe. and, by god, look what happened-i miss santa fe. don't get me wrong, i could still never live there, but going to a school that is its polar opposite was just idiotic. on another note, i'm coming back on Oct. 8th, and staying through the 12th, so if any of you fools wanna see me (y'all know i want to see you) you should make sure and do so. mmm and i get to see the most beautiful girl on the planet when i get back, fall asleep with curly hair making my chin feel all itchy, and dance with someone who actually knows what shes doing and can keep a beat AND look sexy (girls here (double parenthesis! except my black friends, they can keep a good groove) cannot, for the most part, dance). that last sentence took me about five minutes to figure out, and it still makes 0 sense. on a side philosophical note: Is it better to initially approach life as an attempt to love all of creation, or to focus your attention of one beautiful, perfect person, having a mindset of love with them, and then afterwards expand that mindset to include the rest of creation?
