Prreeeeeesenting 10 Things You Don't (but should!) Know About Women (well, college girls anyway). By Kate. * 1. Girls are nasty. When we get together, we burp, we fart, we make horrible jokes, we throw together terrifying combinations of food and eat every last bite, and we don't shower. If not for disposable razors and tweezers, we would be as hairy as men are. And we're always going to be nasty - periods are digusting, giving birth is not going to be a pretty miracle, and contrary to...

Being fifteen at the time, I responded, " Well... sadness... I guess." But I, being young and an idiot, did not know that there was worse. The most horrible feeling in the world is not plain sadness or depression. It is guilt. It's knowing that you've done something irrevocable that will or that definitely has the potential to change your life for the worse - or someone's whom you love. And you have to live with it, because it isn't in your power to change it, or make it better. It's knowing that you...

I do love America. I finally was well enough to burst into random bouts of song today. First time in a week and a half. It was godly-good. Hanky-panky. And my new room has great acoustics! Compensation I suppose, for stifling my creativity. I need blue to feel comfortable and relaxed, and all the green makes me want to do is listen to Enya and wear Pretty Pink Princess...

Yet today, organizing and re-organizing all my things and carting them all down the hall a hundred billion times, it suddenly occurred to me that my head hurt and I wanted to lie down. Wait a second. I haven't had lunch. Cue "Kate-you-are-retarded" auto-answer. Well I did have coffee at breakfast; I was probably coming down from the caffeine. There is nothing more entertaining than IHOP. It's just such a wonderful novel idea, and it always is! It never gets old! "I'm hungry. It's 11 o' clock at night....

In the AM. Because his power was out. (Man I love cell phones!) It suddenly occurred to me around 5 that I was exhausted and my throat was sore, but I just crawled under my covers and talked more softly for ninety more minutes. We talked about... hmmm... life, I think. We probably went through every event that had happened to us during the past two years, and then some. And the next morning (at 8:30 - it was like a 2-hour nap!), my...

Even though it shall be music (or some insane form of it) that will kill me next Saturday morning." - 10/18/03 "I wish I could just take everyone's angst away from them and dump it on some remote planet somewhere. Or put it on me. I could deal with it. I'm not crazy. I know I'm not going to take any strange pills or play with a razor blade any time soon." - 11/6/03 "After we left the mall... we went to Bueno and bothered Paul. I asked him if he whistled while he worked. 'No,' he said, 'but sometimes I hum.'... Paul is a very amusing kid." -...

At that point, you can do anything you want. 2) Where were you when 9/11 happened? I was coming out of first hour in 8th grade, and Elizabeth latched onto me and said Somebody bombed the World Trade Center! 3) What do you do when vending machines steal your money? Push the button - hard - over and over, and go "NNNOOO!" 4) Do you consider yourself kind? Ish. Sometimes I'm a bitch. 5) If you had to get a tattoo, where and what would it be? While this will never happen, if I really HAD to... it would be a tiny blue star, on my side, above my right...

Call me obsessive if you wish; I know I can do better. (At least I'd better do better if I want to stay part of my family.) A twenty-something is an average score, and an upper-twenty-something is something most parents and colleges would be excited about. Not my parents, and not OCU. I have to get a 30. Repeat. This is my mantra. I must get a 30. I must be discounted ten-thousand dollars. Little dollars. Ten-THOUSAND of them. That's a lot of dollars. I have been studying out of this damned ACT-practice book (that cost entirely too...

And this time last year, I couldn't believe I was going to be eighteen. It simply would not happen, because I couldn't picture it. I was seventeen and I had a magazine named after me, and I was ready for senior year. I picked up my diploma today, and it was a weird experience. The short distance from my parking spot to the building, being right on top of a giant desert of asphalt, was gruellingly hot, and as I opened the door to the building a wall of cool air and the smell of cheap cleaning chemicals hit me. As I walked around the corner of the...

If I were a sea animal I would be: A killer whale (I'm small but I pack a punch... what??)
