oh my god ap classes

i’m killing myself and it’s fucking GREAT

i’ve never actually learned anything in an english class before and i kind of love it when i answer a question and my teacher says “well, i’m sure that answer would’ve been acceptable in an honors class”

i kinda feel like i have so little control over so much of my life right now and i want so many things that i can’t have, but acing the fuck out of all my classes and making the AP exams in may my total bitch are two things that are both a) ways to prove that i’m capable of achieving things and b) totally under my control

like i don’t know if it’s normal to reread chapters of the american pageant more than twice or recopy all my notes or spend 7+ hours a night studying in the first week of school or neglect pretty much everything else or generally be this obsessive about anything but uh fuck the police

i just hate the feel i get from other facets of my life that i’m miserable and there’s literally nothing i can do about it and i hate feeling this helpless and not being in charge of my own life and i guess i’m channeling that unhappiness into a determination to succeed with flying colors in an area that actually is 100% under my control?

i guess some girls get eating disorders and i just study harder

koalanap replied to your photo: i just got my first license in the mail and can we…

AWWWW TOO TRUE. also, you can’t just go around posting your drivers license number. people will STEAL YOUR ACCEPTABLY ATTRACTIVE IDENTITY.

well if anyone is motivated or talented enough to try to decipher what that actually says i think they deserve my identity but i can edit that anyway

kid a: I had never even seen a shooting star before. 25 years of rotations, passes through comets’ paths, and travel, and to my memory I had never witnessed burning debris scratch across the night sky. Radiohead were hunched over their instruments. Thom Yorke slowly beat on a grand piano, singing, eyes closed, into his microphone like he was trying to kiss around a big nose. Colin Greenwood tapped patiently on a double bass, waiting for his cue. White pearls of arena light swam over their faces. A lazy disco light spilled artificial constellations inside the aluminum cove of the makeshift stage. The metal skeleton of the stage ate one end of Florence’s Piazza Santa Croce, on the steps of the Santa Croce Cathedral. Michelangelo’s bones and cobblestone laid beneath. I stared entranced, soaking in Radiohead’s new material, chiseling each sound into the best functioning parts of my brain which would be the only sound system for the material for months.

The butterscotch lamps along the walls of the tight city square bled upward into the cobalt sky, which seemed as strikingly artificial and perfect as a wizard’s cap. The staccato piano chords ascended repeatedly. “Black eyed angels swam at me,” Yorke sang like his dying words. “There was nothing to fear, nothing to hide.” The trained critical part of me marked the similarity to Coltrane’s “Ole.” The human part of me wept in awe./10

No Children The Mountain Goats

butitlookslikefun:

no children - the mountain goats

I hope it stays dark forever
I hope the worst isn’t over
And I hope you blink before I do
And I hope I never get sober
And I hope when you think of me years down the line
You can’t find one good thing to say
And I’d hope that if I found the strength to walk out
You’d stay the hell out of my way
I am drowning
There is no sign of land
You are coming down with me
Hand in unlovable hand

The most remarkable thing about you standing in the doorway is that it's you, and that you're standing in the doorway.

“

Jeez, how much can be said about loving somebody? Do that, do it do it do it. I don’t care if the divorce rate is 96% and the only proof of romance is 36 Gary Marshall movies staring Julia Roberts, I want you to think love is something worth having. I hope we never become too spineless to do something selfless for somebody else, and we’ll always be willing to do something risky for our own heart happiness. I hope Carson Daly doesn’t still have a job, and I hope that you still can get robot butterflies in your stomach when some idiot half-grins at you. I hope that romance doesn’t involve only text messaging and vampire tween novels.

And if you’re a kid now, I hope that you know that you are smart. And that you should have faith in yourself and people and you don’t become more cynical as years go on. And don’t become too full of yourselves, and you learn from our mistakes and read the things we wrote and say ‘hmph, I can’t believe they thought nachos were delicious when they hadn’t invented ____ yet.’ And you live in a world where more girls are happier with their bodies. And every gay kid can dream of his/her wedding. And Independence Day happened and Bill Pullman really was president, or there was a woman prez who wasn’t Michelle Bachman. And you cured diseases. And you made some peace. And you are more educated, and more hopeful, and watching better television sitcoms. The thing is, these are not the ‘good old days’ because tomorrow is always better.

Unless the robots take over, of course.
