A Neslo In Space

I'm a college student in Michigan and my life isn't very interesting. I enjoy cookies and coffee and W. Somerset Maugham.

one of those

jours:

Sometimes I just want to sleep for a million years, and wake up when everything I’ve ever known and cared about has died and been reborn. Then I’ll wander among the ruins until I disappear or turn to stone, and no one will ever give a fuck, thank god.

I have to say—being alive means you’re always looking for a way to be whole; being human precludes any chance of ever having the satisfaction of wanting nothing.

give me one good reason as to why i shouldn’t turn this into my next arts and crafts project, and make it snappy. and legitimate. (via the sartorialist)

When I’m no longer completely broke, I am for sure crafting this.

I liked Ben Whishaw as Keats in Bright Star.  The movie was so subtle and tentative about everything - just the way I like it.

I am just so bored with my life right now.

I might go dumpster diving with a quasi-freegan tomorrow night, though.  That will be pretty exciting (if it happens).  Maybe that will start my week off the right way.  And get me out of this emotional slump.

The difference in mind between man and the higher animals, great as it is, is certainly one of degree and not of kind.

After going to Philosophy Club a few times, I have found that there are two types of people that consider themselves philosophers:

1. People who are generally able to make concise, convincing arguments.

2. People who use too many big words and don’t actually say anything that makes much sense.

People are often in love with one another at different times, at the wrong times, at times that overlap but somehow manage to conflict. You’re with someone else, they’re with someone else, you’re still thinking of somebody else. Supposedly we remember incomplete actions more vividly than finished ones, which might help explain the sort of perverse pleasures associated with longing, regret, and melancholia. Look, I’m not in love with the tragedy of this thing.
