BioAbout me
My name is Ashley. I'm 22. I go to the U of M full-time, I'm majoring in American Studies and potentially minoring in Psychology. I have two part-time jobs: one at UPS, working the midnight shift, which I love, and the other is at the Guthrie selling tickets which is awesome, too, especially the building and the location.
I don't know what I'm going to do after college. My thoughts are:
Grad School for American Studies
Grad School for Creative Writing
Peace Corps.
I'm busy and I have poor time-management, sometimes. Those do not go well together. I don't like doing homework on the weekends but I have little time to do it during the week. Somehow I get it all done, though, and manage to get enough sleep and train for a marathon.
When I'm not in school I tend to get really into tv shows or movies or music. Actually I'm always into music. Music and running are my favorite highs (is that super cheesy?).
I'm pretty happy, extremely content, I have a good support system, and I write in this thing a lot, but it's normally entertaining, I think. I also love reading other people's entries, so feel free to add me.
Concert List
Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?
Thus in silence in dreams’ projections,
Returning, resuming, I thread my way through the hospitals,
The hurt and wounded I pacify with soothing hand,
I sit by the restless all the dark night, some are so young,
Some suffer so much, I recall the experience sweet and sad,
(Many a soldier’s loving arms about this neck have cross’d and rested,
Many a soldier’s kiss dwells on these bearded lips).
-Walt Whitman, from The Wound-Dresser.
me!
“they fuck you up, your mom and dad
they do not mean to, but they do
they fill you with the fears they have
then add some new ones just for you.
but they were fucked up in their turn
by fools in old style hats and coats
who half the time were soppy stern
and half at one another’s throats.
man hands on misery to man
it deepens like a coastal shelf
so get out as early as you can
and don’t have any kids yourself.”
-Philip Larkin
Here are several music charts because I know you are all obsessed with my musical tastes.
