where did the love go?

I hate to say it, but I think there is becoming a lack of love in the world. I had a suspicion when I discovered there really wasn't a God (in the dogmatic sense) because we have no one to really show us how love is supposed to be displayed. Or maybe confidence is in our DNA and there is less and less being reproduced. I say this because since I've started this fall semester I've seen a lot more students on campus and a portion of them are couples that walk together. Not only are they paralyzed in a social coma product of technology, but it almost seems like they are not holding hands for the sake of showing love towards their partner but more so for claiming their partner. If they aren't both texting someone else they are walking around (in both cases holdings hands) with the most jealous and defending look on their faces. This saddens me but like a lot of other things in the world, I can't do anything about it. But my main thought about it all is people my age and younger don't really know what love is and how to express it without being jealous. Maybe we should re-define the definition of love to fit more perfectly to modern day. Just and idea. All I can really do is appreciate my amazing boyfriend David and even more so appreciate the relationship we have. I really don't think I could ask for more.

Sooooo what's new? Well, school is yet again taking up about 110% of my time, but that's okay, keeps me busy. I have some exciting things coming up that will be just in time for a small break for me. David and I will be going to see Dave Matthews Band in Dallas on sept 11. I'm really fuckin stoked about this. It's going to be a me and him date, that's my favorite part about it, of course. (It was his idea too, even more special :)) And then, two weeks after that Dusty (his new girlfriend) Ashley, David and I will be going to North Carolina to go wake boarding for a couple of days... for free. :) Maybe I'll just wait and do a huge picture blog of all the new stuff in the past and coming month.

Quotes

"Nothing is impossible, the word itself says 'I'm possible'!" — Audrey Hepburn

"Paris is always a good idea."
— Audrey Hepburn

"We the american working population hate the fact that 8 hours a day is waisted on chasing the dream of someone that isn't us, and we may not hate our jobs, but we hate jobs in general that dont have to do with fighting our own causes. We the american working population hate the 9-5 day-in-day-out while we rather be supporting ourselves by being paid the perfect the past times that we have harbored based solely on the fact that it makes us smile if it sounds dope!" - Aesop Rock, 9-5ers anthem

"She sat listening to the music. It was a symphony of triumph. The notes flowed up, they spoke of rising and they were the rising itself, they were the essence and the form of upward motion, they seemed to embody every human act and thought that had ascent as its motive. It was a sunburst of sound, breaking out of hiding and spreading open. It had the freedom of release and the tension of purpose. It swept space clean, and left nothing but the joy of an unobstructed effort. Only a faint echo within the sounds spoke in laughing astonishment at the discovery that there was no ugliness or pain; and there never had had to be. It was the song of an immense deliverance." -Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand, p. 20

"My philosophy, in essence, is the concept of man as a heroic being, with his own happiness as the moral purpose of his life, with productive achievement as his noblest activity, and reason as his only absolute." - Ayn Rand

"Photography is like a mistress whom one cherishes and hides, about whom one speaks with joy but does not want others to mention."
-Ernest Lacan

"The Christian resolution to find the world ugly and bad has made the world ugly and bad." - Friedrich Nietzsche

"But since they had no identity from the start, they started to resent the scene when they couldn't become a part. They been failing for years and call themselves vets. That's Bold. Motherfucker you're not a vet, you're just old. I'll slap the shit out you then continue my nerd-rap. Making this money fist over fist, fuck what you heard. Rookie cays talk about boom bap and golden ages, pat themselves on the back for making that new outdated shit. But I been putting out vinyl since '93 and never looked back at y'all trying to chase me. You don't innovate because you can't innovate. It's not a choice, despite what you might tell your boys. Keep your identity crisis under the table. I always knew who I was and I'll always be more famous." - We're Famous (Feat. El-P), by Aesop Rock (El-p's verse)

"I believe in pink. I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing, kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles."
— Audrey Hepburn
