Brushing my teeth never feels as good as it does when I'm here. After working from 8am until 11:30pm what else could a decent human ask for but to have some freaking time for HYGIENE?

I have to wake up at 5am to go on an Explo college trip to Brown/Providence College.

"Let's listen to our hearts, trust our instincts, and refuse to participate in anything that bores or outraged us. We need to nourish our idealism and willingness to take risks, not work out new ways to integrate our frustration and our desperation for change back into the society that engendered them. Remember, every day we spend "using the system" is another day we'll have to wait until new networks and better ways of life replace the old ones. Yes, it often seems like there's no alternative to "working within the system" if we want to get things doe and not keep our ideas quarantined within the narrow confines to the underground. But why keep the underground quarantined to narrow confines? Surely if we put all out energy into expanding the spaces in which we can interact as free, equal human beings, rather than trying to repair the burning machinery of this doomed society, we could make at least as much of an impact. Imagine what we could achieve if we kept all out potential in our own hands, and refused to waste it ever again working for their system even for a minute. There's no excuse to let a fraction of our lives go by doing things we don't love or to let any of our talents and efforts serve to prop up a world order we oppose. Instead let's fight so hard and live so fucking hard the others inside the cages of mainstream life can see us and are inspired to join us in our complete rejection of the old world and all it's bullshit. The system we live under offers only loser's games- so why play them? it's up to us to create new games, more joyous and exciting than the old ones. Let's not try to beat them at their games but make them join us in ours!"
