How can you live so happily while I am sad and broken down? Emo posts are a blogging staple, and since my revamp I don't believe I have had a truly emo post (maybe with one exception). So here goes.

Recipe for an emo blog post:
1) An emo title, preferably from an emo song
2) Stir in melodrama and self-pitty to taste
3) Mix well and serve chilled
Note: For less self-indulgent bloggers, add password protection.

I really wish I was still at home. I was fine last semester but going home just reminded me that some places in the world are exposed to the sun. It reminded me what it's like to have people around who genuinely love and care about me. It reminded me that life is short and why am I wasting the next five years of my life in school six hundred miles from my family? I didn't feel the weight of that distance last semester, but now its weighing down on me. I miss Brandeis and S2P - and playing Final Fantasy with Carrie -- and just hanging around with Aimee and Dena and Jill and Kim and talking and eating junk food. I even miss Bob and Vision Lab and all the great people I worked with there. I miss my mom and I realize my dad has worn his scarlet letter for long enough. I miss my brother. I miss my grandparents.

There ya go. 10:01 AM
