Dear Me,
Hi. Hello there.
I know how much you have been stressed out lately. With classes that you don’t particularly love (except for Hinduism!), applying to study abroad, preparing for alumni shadowing, and finding a summer internship, this quarter has been awfully hard. It doesn’t help that it’s wintertime and rather gloomy outside. But you know what? You can get through this.

I hate anthropology
I hate my BioAnthro class. My teacher isn’t very good and this lab report is killing me. You suck, anthropology! Everyone who likes it should be exiled to Madagascar so they can play with lemurs all day. Good riddance, you bastards.
pet peeve

Are you sexually active? Y or N
Which birth control do you use? Birth control pills, condoms, spermicide, other

Foucault's panopticon + gender = manopticon
Yes, I came up with that all by myself.
so I'm not doing too well in school
Three weeks into school, it’s all catching up to me. I haven’t been motivated at all to do schoolwork because there are so many other things that need my immediate attention. Homework then gets put off until the weekend but by the weekend, I’m tired from working on everything else. Ugh. It’s Sunday afternoon, I’m exhausted, and I still have so much work to do.
Plus,...

G.O.B.
Five fields I’m interested in:
social work
health communications
editing/publishing
secretarial duties
interwebz/blogging
If anyone can help me consolidate this into one super amazing (preferably decently compensated) job in L.A., Hawaii, or Santa Clara/San Jose, I’d be forever indebted to you.
I think there are two kinds of people: ones that love fried food and ones that...
