regarding the pain others.

bye bye castro fidel
hello castro raul

musharraf.. pakistan is so over you.

did you feel the illinoise?
five college kids certainly did.

a total eclipse of the heart [read: the moon] tonight.


something is certainly brewing.
mm.. everyday there is more universal heartache, no?
i guess it's just up to me each day..
to care.. to check.. to feel the world
or not.

most days it's just easier to not.



unsure about a lot of things, lately.
i don't feel stable in any of my classes, really.
not really motivated in any clear way, yet..
i feel like a photo baby all over again.



i'm eagerly waiting call backs and email replies from AIDS organizations in DC.
is it wrong to be jealous that my friends are making actual contacts with sick people and i'm not?
yes. yes, it is.. what the hell is wrong with me?
finding joy and hope in getting access to other people's pain.

but that's the point, i guess.
how do you get to the point of showing the empathy and information through images
without doing legwork?
and how do you persevere through the rejections without a tenaciously positive attitude?



come on susan sontag..
let's talk.
