I'll let the band say how I feel...

Helter Skelter

When I get to the bottom, I go back to the top of the slide,
Then I stop, and I turn, and I go for the ride.
When I'm back at the bottom, then I see you again!
Yeah yeah yeah
Do you, don't you want me to love you?
I'm coming down fast, but I'm miles above you.
Tell me, tell me, tell me, come on tell the answer.
You may be my lover, but you ain't no dancer.
Look out!
Helter skelter
Helter skelter
Helter skelter
Yeah Yeah
Will you, won't you want me to make you?
I'm coming down fast, so don't let me break you.
Tell me, tell me, tell me the answer!
Well, you may be my lover, but you ain't no dancer.
Helter skelter
Helter skelter
Helter skelter
LOOK OUT!!

What is finals week/grad school apps/conference doing to me? I think this is how I feel. Just going from the bottom back to the top and doing it all over again! All I do is write! I write and write and write! And then I write some more! I'm probably deforesting some humongous rainforest as we speak--so much for "Going Green," huh? I need a break, otherwise I think I'm gonna go nuts before my conference!

But I will not crack. Alex does not crack easily. She might tear out her hair and blast the loud music, but she does not crack. Mark my words, I'm gonna take all this writing and make it the best I've ever done, even if it kills me! Prepare for no sleep and excessive amounts of caffeine, I'm kicking this time's puny little @$&! GWS majors wrote the book on the ancient art of ass-kickery. If we can dismantle the patriarchy and fight hegemony, then mark my words, some apps and essays should be nothing new. I might go insane, but I'm gonna rock this thing like it's never been rocked before!
