graduation day

I didn’t go. I am working instead. No point in going. Did make me a little sad though.

Stupid thesis

thesis eatting life and soul. bbs.

9,961 Words. 47 pages. 16 Graphs and Figures. 52 Entries in my bibilography. 2 Appendices. Hell there is even a table of contents and Figures! And this Thesis Draft is Done! Unfortuantly its is 4:05 am and there is no one to high five. So Ummm *high five internet*

here is a sample of what has been consuming my time and will to write:

New York City and Boston do not rank in the top ten metros with the highest concentration of American Indians. However, they do have a 193,100, of American Indians living within their combined metro areas. This means that 4.5% of the American Indian population lives within the New York City and Boston metro areas.To put this in perspective, the largest reservation in the US is the Navajo reservation. It has 180,472 people living on it. There are more American Indians living in Boston and New York City than American Indians living on the largest of the 314 reservations in the US.

yeah, so Im a terrible blogger that doesnt update nearly as much as I should. But for the most part its o just a long series of wo my teeth, ow my uterus. read read read writers block. Work work work.

I need adventure
I need to get away
I need the bright lights
and I need the dark alleyways.

I need to go to a club that doesnt open till 11pm I need to hang with freaks.
But unfortunatly, instead I am home on a friday night trying to not avoid writing my thesis, getting horribly depressed by my raw data, and drinking far too much diet coke.

Its prolly for the best. My friends have matured past me again. Its really kind of depressing. Im back to being religated as the wild one that no one hands out with much any more. Hell, I cant even get anyone to go to roller derby with me.

On the upside, this lack of friend bonding has made me not have any good reason to not spend money, and to not be writing my paper. On the down side, come june I will be one lonely sad sack of an individual that came late, and the party is over… or at least moved on. This is the second time … no wait.. third time I have been part of a crowd that has moved on without me. The last time that happened I moved to NC. I dont want to move to NC. Im starting to get that restless useless feelign again and Im not sure if its just that Im undateable, or that Im a complete looser that men really dont want to be seen with… bah.

People keep telling me Im not undatable. yes I have gone on many many many first dates. Im over first dates. Im over hanging out with just women. Im over. Its over. blah. Great, I sound depressed again.

Im not really. Im busy. And lonely all at the same time. And Im frustrated. Im gettig to old to go to bars. But I still want to see the bands. All my friends are in bed by 11. When the hell did that happen?

I need the bright lights,
I need the dark city

Some women choose to follow men, and some women choose to follow their dreams. If you’re wondering which way to go, remember that your career will never wake up and tell you that it doesn’t love you anymore.

Canada is a Huron word. It means Village. Cultrual appropriation from Native reight from the start. Yes I have problems with the Olympics trotting out Native peoples trying to show the world how “great canada is to its first nations” No marketing imagery ever could erase these ongoing legacies of a history of colonial …genocide in Canada (and elsewhere). As this article points out, there are significant political issuse in Indigenous Canada that the games are glassing over and the games are marketing Native culture as homogenous and interchangeable. Why else would they be using an artic cultures symbol for a logo, totem poles ( Pac NW) and grass dancers (Plains). Fuck you Canada, and Fuck you olympic committee for being the same old colonizers in a glossy new package.
