me @ myself : a journal entry (lmao) 

this year i decided it was a fun idea to take 6 courses, 2 jobs and volunteer all at the same time and all it did was make me wanna die 

i handled it tho my GPA is fine i got into a research program i really wanted to get into i have 2 scholarships for the fall and im safe 

but i SLIPPED so many times this year i missed 2 assignments which is beyond unlike me its not who i am its not who i ever was and it BROKE ME in the weirdest most incomprehensible way but i reiterate: i made it back 

but i also died constantly over and over again i kept feeling like i was losing my humanity i was just the # of hours i worked and the grades i got and aunties and uncles still didn’t take me seriously its always just so what boys do you like when u gonna get married you’re gonna do that alone? 

i felt like no matter what i did it wasn’t enough so i started to do more and more until i was satisfied but really lmao i never was i just got sadder and withdrew more and just took more responsibility than i should have i was mean and angry and not nice in anyway i kept a safe distance from my family and my work became all that consumed me 

the end of the year came and suddenly after powering through 3 exams crying cutting and screaming i spent the past week sleeping and smiling and now ive realized oh my god bitch you have to start taking care of yourself 

so new (school) years resolution include: quit of my damn jobs, take a reasonable course load, convince myself that i am doing enough i DONT have to do more to prove to anyone anything i dont owe anyone anything i know im good and i dont need anyone else to tell me that, people are allowed to take care of themselves and i am allowed to,,, im gonna start talking to my friends more (and i have) and im gonna allow myself to enjoy more things (and i have). i still have 3 exams left but im relaxed in a way that i never have before been because i know that im gonna start self caring and its gonna be ok. its all gonna be just fine. everything’s alright

“Your mental illness is all in your head” where did you think it was????? my ass????

[pixie-tot]

why are non-millennials so personally offended by everything? like if i’m still wearing my jacket indoors, it’s because i’m cold, not because i disrespect your home/your classroom !! if somebody has got your order wrong, it’s because they’re very busy and simply made a mistake, not because they’re trying to jeopardise your meal !! if somebodies phone rings during a meeting/lecture, it’s because they accidentally forgot to put it on silent, not because they want to disrupt your speech !! just calm down, sharon, not everything is about you

Students who considered themselves socialists were not so much interested in the poor as they were desirous of leading the poor, of being their guides and saviors. It was just this paternalism toward the poor that the vision of solidarity I had learned in religious settings was meant to challenge. From a spiritual perspective, the poor were there to guide and lead the rest of us by example if not by outright action and testimony. As a student I read Marx, Gramsci, and a host of other male thinkers on the subject of class. These works provided theoretical paradigms but rarely offered tools for confronting the complexity of class in daily life. […] [W]hen I told friends and colleagues that I was resigning from my academic job to focus on writing, I was warned that I was making a dangerous mistake, that I could not possibly live on an income that was between twenty and thirty thousand dollars a year. When I pointed to the reality that families of four and more live on such an income, the response would be “that’s different”; the difference being, of course, one of class. The poor are expected to live with less and are socialized to accept less (badly made clothing, products, food, etc.), whereas the well-off are socialized to believe it is both a right and a necessity for us to have more, to have exactly what we want when we want it.

Christopher Nolan Talks The Triptych Storytelling Of 'Dunkirk'

Christopher Nolan‘s “Dunkirk” sees one of the best blockbuster directors of the moment turning his talents to WWII.

Christopher Nolan‘s “Dunkirk” sees one of the best blockbuster directors of the moment turning his talents to WWII. Indeed, it looks like we’ll be getting a very different kind of filmmaker than we’re used to in Nolan’s next effort, and it goes beyond the casting of heartthrob Harry Styles, and using IMAX cameras to capture the horrors of war. The director’s storytelling techniques are also getting a new spin.

In a new interview with Premiere, Nolan reveals that dialogue — which some have criticized as being too expository in past films — has been pared back, with the director likening “Dunkirk” to a survival tale. Even more, the film will feature three different perspectives moving from the beach (with Harry Styles), to the sea (with Mark Rylance and Cillian Murphy), and up to the sky (with Tom Hardy).

“The film is told from three points of view. The air (planes), the land (on the beach) and the sea (the evacuation by the navy). For the soldiers embarked in the conflict, the events took place on different temporalities,” Nolan said (via Google translation). “On land, some stayed one week stuck on the beach. On the water, the events lasted a maximum day; And if you were flying to Dunkirk, the British spitfires would carry an hour of fuel. To mingle these different versions of history, one had to mix the temporal strata. Hence the complicated structure; Even if the story, once again, is very simple.”

However, this is all in service of Nolan doing justice to a pivotal moment of the war.“This is an essential moment in the history of the Second World War. If this evacuation had not been a success, Great Britain would have been obliged to capitulate. And the whole world would have been lost, or would have known a different fate: the Germans would undoubtedly have conquered Europe, the US would not have returned to war,” he said. “It is a true point of rupture in war and in history of the world. A decisive moment. And the success of the evacuation allowed Churchill to impose the idea of a moral victory, which allowed him to galvanize his troops like civilians and to impose a spirit of resistance while the logic of this sequence should have been that of surrender. Militarily it is a defeat; On the human plane it is a colossal victory.”

“Dunkirk” opens on July 21st.
