Anonymous asked: Middlesex is NOT about the trans community, it's about inbreeding and intersex people. Which is definitely something that needs to be spoken about, because intersex is something that most people are incredibly ignorant about. But saying it's about the trans community is false. Trans does not equal intersex.

When the Red Solo Cup Becomes the Ultimate...
If you consult any parenting book published in the past 10 years or pick up any magazine during the school year, you’ll get the impression that every person from the ages of 16 to 24 are drunk 90% of the time.
Going on to facebook is not going to deter this thesis, as you will see college kids unabashedly posting glassy eyed photos with red solo cups in their hands. Or posting statuses...

How To Cheer Yourself Up!
So today I had a pretty decent Monday. But then President Obama and Congressman Boehner gave their speeches about the debit crisis. The lack of partisanship and the political agenda show boating was enough to drive a girl crazy.
But instead of getting sulky I got spazzy!!
So bellow I have created a list of things I did that made me feel better! Because I am an attention whoring first world...

Liberating a Nerd
So today I got my nose pierced! It’s something I’ve wanted to do for a really long time. I kept going back and forth, wondering if it would affect peoples perception of me or if would hurt me when I was applying for jobs. I was also really afraid of the pain. But then last night my friend Loni looked at me and goes “what are we doing tomorrow?” and I said “I...

kaseysaidmaybetomorrow:
I question who I am and what I am doing every single day. College helps you in some ways to figure those things out, but with only a year left I don’t know if the person that I am today will be the same as the person I will be tomorrow, or will want to be in a week. I don’t know so many things…
This is the most wonderful thing I’ve read all summer.

No One Really Has Their Shit Together
This past weekend I had a really lovely time visiting friends and road tripping to visit friends even further away.
My friend Annie and I drove 3 hours to see our friend Alex perform in a show. While the show was nothing too special, seeing Alex perform and her reaction when she saw us (it was a surprise) was probably one of the best things I’ve seen all summer.
Three hours in the car...

J.K. Rowling should write a book about Lily, James and Severus. How good would that be! Seriously, there is so many things that we can know about them. We need stories Jo! Please write this, this book should happen! I know we would buy and read it. It’s a good story to tell!
Sincerely,

So Harry Potter Happened last night.
Sobbed from probably 60% of the movie.
That Lily and Snape montage was a KILLER.
Could say more but I am too tired from all the crying.

Harry Potter Love.
I can’t tell you for certain when I first read Harry Potter. I am pretty sure I was in the first grade and I was in my grandparents house. I can’t be sure when it all started for me, but all I know is J.K Rowling and the Harry Potter gang have always been in my life.
The world Rowling created for me and so many others was so wonderful and freeing. It gave birth to my generations...

Your house: Gryffindor. I have taken the online test like 800 times. Plus, I am kind of a natural born leader and I work really hard for things that are good. Your favorite character from the trio: Hermione. Looking back I realize she was one of the first feminist fiction characters I ever loved. I credit her and rory gilmore for my passion for learning. Three other favorite characters:...
