these are my confessions

1. I'm seeing someone else, and I've got one on the way.
2. It's not yours.
3. I'm lying.
4. I bought this skirt from Forever21 two weeks ago because I really wanted to buy something (anything; as Tammy Faye Bakker put it, "I always say shopping is cheaper than a psychiatrist"). I would have bought summer clothes, but I wasn't sure if I was going to be staying in Berkeley over the summer, because I wasn't sure if I was really going to attempt a Computer Science degree, because I don't love it, and I am afraid of failing.
5. I took these photos anyway.
6. This skirt makes me feel fat.
7. I like symbolic action.
8. So I returned the skirt under the justification that it made me feel fat and I am indeed attempting a Computer Science degree, and the Forever21 store credit instead went to summer purchases.
9. I was going to make a backup Fall 2010 class schedule, in case I fail miserably over the summer. But then I realized that artists do not have Plan B's, or else they will fail. There will always be a Plan B, whether or not I have thought it out in advance. So while I'm not pursuing an artistic major, I'm operating under the assumption that I am getting a Linguistics/Computer Science degree, which means I need summer clothes, dammit. I'm always so willing to suspend disbelief when it comes to theater or books. Why not school?
