nothing's impossible
just have to find a way

"Farewell happy Fields
Where Joy for ever dwells: Hail horrors, hail
Infernal world, and thou profoundest Hell
Receive thy new Possessor: One who brings
A mind not to be chang'd by Place or Time.

The mind is its own place, and in itself
Can make a Heav'n of Hell, a Hell of Heav'n.
What matter where, if I be still the same,
And what I should be, all but less than he.
Whom Thunder hath made greater? Here at least
We shall be free; th' Almighty hath not built
Here for his envy, will not drive us hence:
Here we may reign secure, and in my choice
To reign is worth ambition though in Hell:
Better to reign in Hell, than serve in Heav'n

I got Netflix yesterday. Best yesterday of my life. I asked Jen if she went through that phase where she watched every movie she's always wanted to watch but never got around to picking them up. I went through that phase. It resulted in: The Cake Eaters, Kate & Leopold, The Lover, S. Darko: A Donnie Darko Tale, La Femme Nikita, Race to Witch Mountain, Life As A House, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, Fierce People, Blindness, Boot Camp, Darkness Falls. All in the course of two days.

I had the most intense sex dream two days ago, I woke up almost fuckin' sweating.

I got an A in my Middle English Chaucer translation exam. Ooh-rah. Let's see... It wasn't difficult... it was just a lot to translate. 200 lines.

I'm wondering if I can spare a few days to go to Washington DC. I miss Angie already.

Naturally, no word from Ryan.

I got nothing. Bought a few books and raided the $1 section at Open Books (I mean... I got Anna Karenina with the awesome leatherbound cover for $1 so... beat it.)

ogni cuore
ha il suo dolore

If you're here, you've somehow managed to stumble across my blog. The word blog makes me think of snooty fashionistas in New York writing about their later escapades in their pink Mercedes so we'll just call this the place were Ria (yours truly) can spit out whatever the hell she wants with no responsibility or thought about who she might be offending.

Also, if you're reading this, you might want to know a few things. This is my fifth attempt at successfully keeping a record of my thoughts and doings - after a few LiveJournals, a former Blog (if you peek around you might find it), and a few paper journals - so, I figure this might be the last chance I'll give myself to write everyday - if not possible then every other day - about what's going on through my head.

N o, you're not handcuffed to a chair. You may leave if you will. ~~Go watch porn.~~

My basic goal with this is to try to flesh out the philosophies, memories, thoughts that make me - me.

Truthfully, I just want to write again. I miss it.
