so i talked to my friend justin (who is always is a super-happy mood) yesterday. but when i asked how he was, he was like 'ive actually been pretty upset all day.' you see friends, over in iraq 2000 american soldiers have died. how much is too much? the real problem is none of us really care. sure, we sit around and complain about president bush and whatnot, but whos really doing anything? most people in our generation, definitely myself included, just complain about ourselves all the time. just look at your friends page. god my life sucks! im in college and i hate it! i miss my friends! i dont have any money! i have the sniffles! my dad wont buy me a new car! i have so much hw! that show is sold out! my computer is so slow! my professor is an idiot! SHUT UP! all of us! if i have to hear/read one more fucking complaint about how much life sucks here in america from anyone who has not yet HAD to (not just done it for fun) resort to dealing/prostitution/homelessness, especially myself, i really dont know what ill do.

i really dont think its all our fault. i mean really, anytime we have a problem we just tell our parents, they tell a doctor, we re-tell the doctor, and they give us a prescription. you can't pay attention in class? here's some adderall. you feel a little down today? here's some zoloft. back hurts a little? here's some klonipin. so we have become selfish. we dont realize that (now this is where i make an insane, yet plausiable accusation towards the government, because its 430 am and people do crazy things like this at 430 am) the drug companies, our doctors, and YES! even our government are all working together to make us not care. all those anti-drug ads - they make drugs look pretty appealing to me. please, the DARE program? thats where i learned about drugs! and come on, all those governemtn people, they grew up in the 60's. they know how teenagers can get rowdy! so they drug us up, and we just look away. they make it easy for us to get all kinds of drugs. honestly, what do you want? i can get it for you. anything at all. and im an 18 year old white girl. ill just call up some people. or hell, reach in mom's medicine cabinet.

justin pointed out to me - now days, kids just dont give a fuck. oh we give a fuck about bitching. that's what our generation does best. i pride myself in my bitching skills. but the thing is we need to start bitching to the right people. do you think the government reads our livejournals? well ok yah maybe, but not the right people.

what am i saying exactly? i dont know. i guess i think its bullshit that all these people aren't doing shit. myself included of course. i'm not trying to point fingers. just figure shit out/light a fire under other people's asses. if you have any sort of access to a mode of mass communication, use it! in the 60's musicians used their popularity to speak out. but today the musicians that are popular only give a fuck about money, and the ones that dont give a fuck about money adn would speak out, aren't popular.

so what do we have that they didn't have in the sixties? ok. mtv. hahahaha yah right. that's done a whole lot. send gideon whats his fuck over to iraq, about get him blown up, and does it make any changes? no. i know there are mad petitions and shit online to stop it. but we can't use the internet for everything. the old people wont pay attention to us like that. we have to fight their way. does your mom watch mtv? no. does she watch south park? no. does she go to livejournal? NO! so while all of these are informative resources for us, we have to communicate their way. and unfortunately, that means getting out of our computer chairs, out of our dorm rooms, stop playing wow/halo/whatever the new game you guys play now is, put down our cups/shotglasses, put down our bowls/bongs, even put down your stupid guitar that you suck at anyway, and do something tangent.
bec
ok the next time i post, which will be sometime this weekend, i will have done something productive against this bullshit. because really, i dont want justin to be bummed all the time. and oh yah, all those dead/their families are pretty bummed too i bet.

l'absurdite de la vie quotidienne!

Wed, 26 Oct 2005 09:55:03 GMT

the only reason im posting is because i should be writing a paper right now. and being the ultimate procrastinator that i am, i write a paragraph, then fuck around for 30 minutes, then write a paragraph, and fuck around for 30 more minutes, and i repeat until i have a 1 1/2 to 2 pages of bullshit. and oh. not only am i the master of procrastination, i am also the bullshitting guru. oh, you may have bullshitted your way through high school, or bullshitted an A on an exam here or there, but here's where i top you all in bullshitting. the paper i am currently bullshitting is in french. i didn't read the play it's on and i didn't go to class when we discussed the play. (the only advantage i have is that it's comparing this play to seinfeld, which is actually pretty neato.) but just wait til i get my paper back. you will all see, that i am the biggest bullshitter. you will all feel unworthy and bow down before me. for only i, meredith cameron duncan, can actually bullshit a paper in a different language. amen.

in other news, i really like greensboro. it started off slow at first but recently ive been able to go out and actually meet new people. living in the dorm is great for meeting other freshies, but other freshies dont know where the fun stuff is. and when i say fun stuff i mean alcohol. just kidding! i mean like putt-putt gold and bumper boats and sex shops. adam and eve hollllla! it's good to have people that im close to here too that can take care of me. because we all know im incapable of taking care of myself.

this weekend i have to go home to cary. it's aunt sandra and aunt reba's birthdays so we're going down to lake waccamaw early on sunday morning. of course this is the weekend where many important people have decided to either a) go to ecu to get a head-start on the halloween festivities or b) come here for a show. great. will anyone actually be in town? well, i am really excited about seeing bon bon. and my mom will be out of town so you know what that means: shopping with homer! yay! i need new workout pants. so i can go to the gym, walk around the track twice, and come back to the room to eat a bag of cookies. famous amos is the shit!

i really love the weather now. i dont love that all my sweaters and jackets and coats are in cary. plus the wind blows like 43 miles an hour, so those of us of the smaller (and i mean shorter) persuasion get tornado-ed around campus like a plastic bag. the leaves sure are pretty around campus though. sometimes i sit on a bench and pretend to read a book, when really im just looking around at people and the sky and trees and whatnot. is it still okay to people-watch? do you have to have an aarp membershit to do that? oh well, i just pretend to read so no one notices.

okay well its been thirty minutes. time to start paragraph 2.

XOXO!!! goodnight!!!

so i've survived the first 24 hours of unc-g. robin and i have our room all decorated, complete with the devin shrine. last night stacy, paul, and david came over and watched rules of attraction with us. then paul and i ran through the sprinklers in front of the dining hall. today david took us to the grocery store. i got harris teeter brand yogurt, 2 for 87 cents! amazing! i saw the yobaby yogurt and thought of lianne. it made me sad! i wrote my frist check ever, which was exciting! robin and david laughed at me. jerks.

tonight we're having a clueless party in our room! anyone in g-boro is welcome!

xoxo!

Fri, 06 Aug 2004 14:58:30 GMT

this morning i woke up at 8. and i couldn't get back to sleep. which is really odd for me. i was pretty upset, but my mommy made me breakfast and made it better :)

so i did the jumble in the newspaper (today's was hard, did anyone get the 3rd word? i definitely didn't) then i watched mickey blue eyes on tv. i love that movie! then i watched ellen. then i had to pay the roto rooter man since both my parents are at work. writing checks is hard when you have to write so many numbers out in cursive.

so anyways today i'm doing one of the things i hate the most and one of the things i love the most. i'm not sure how i feel about today. my dad said we could go shopping for the tax free weekend thing, because i need new clothes anyway because i'm fat and can't fit into any of my old ones. but he said we couldn't go unless my room is clean! so that sucks, and i should be cleaning it right now. but i also have to go up to the school sometime i get my schedule fixed (don't freak out, i got a note from mrs cooper, so they have to help me) and i have to go up to the mall sometime after 3 because kamran found my license. it was in his dryer. odd.

oh before i start cleaning i'd like to rant on this whole tax free weekend deal. do you realize that it's only items that are under $100?! okay what about those huge TI whatever number graphing calculators. they're like 120. and the jeans i buy are like 130, which i'm sure everyone thinks is a waste of money but they're the only ones that fit me, so suck it. anyways clearly the cut off should be $200 per item. and i think purses/bags should be included, because i need and new backpack. their limit should be like 400, so i could get the pink and purple coach bag to use for my books!

oh and everybody pray for mikey today!

Wed, 04 Aug 2004 18:47:43 GMT

well i haven't updated in a really long time! lots of things have happened since prom. um, i went to seattle and san francisco with my family, i worked for my dad, more coincidences (aka signs!) with the boy were revealed, i went to france, i didn't make cheerleading, i got into unc-g, and some of my best friends got in big trouble! what a summer!

i'm really excited about this school year. not because HELL YAH SENIORS 05! none of that. more because i'm ready to get out of cary, and the whole high school atmosphere. just a few more french classes and i'm ready for paris.

well today i'm going to the mall to get my license back from kamran. thank god. tonight maybe going to that club, i dont know.

i hope everyone is having a good time and wearing their sunscreen at the beach!

xoxo

ps-
don't be shy! call me or im me and ask me out!

Mon, 03 May 2004 00:43:57 GMT

ok so prom. with a 3 o clock curfew it's kind of hard to have a crazy wild time. and, we dont have too many black people at our school. i mean, i like to dance. and some white people just really cannot dance. if you know that you are not a good dancer, you have no rhythm, and you dont like to dance stay off the dance floor!

anyways

aaron was a fabulous date. he put up with my dad's harassments, and mine. and after hour's. yay for aaron!

i dont feel like going into every detail of the night, but it was fun. everyone looked really hot. blah blah. i'm really tired. blah blah.

Fri, 09 Apr 2004 21:44:22 GMT

last night was so fun! i hope tonight is equally as fun.

my grandpa and aunt are coming tonight. too bad i wont be here when they get here.

not much to update about. spring break has been really fun. even though i didn't go to the beach or anything i still had fun hanging out with people here. yay!

Sat, 03 Apr 2004 15:04:38 GMT

yesterday i took a nap, at ruffly 5 pm let's say. then this morning i woke up at 9. i hate when i do that. because i tell people i'll hang out with them. and then i seem like a jerk for sleeping! but i also love when i do that. because the next day i actually feel rested, which isn't something i get to feel often. i had odd dreams last night. one where i called one of our old neighbors and asked to speak to her mom, and she said she was busy and asked me what color my g-unit was. in another it was like the holocaust but like, now and it was the al queda or whatever coming to get us, so a bunch of people were hiding out in my house, like evan peirce and his girlfriend and this boy jacob from my church and like 10 other random people. and we were like in my kitchen all being completely silent and like we heard footsteps and the garage door raise. it was really scary, because like there was this lady who was like the leader or something and she was like 'these will be our last moments, so let's tell each other how we really feel about each other' and i would continue but everyone would just make fun of me. thank god i woke up after that one.

so after i woke up i took a shower. today i plan on cleaning my room. it really is a huge mess. and doing laundry. and tonight hanging out with shro and mandar and jenna.

i feel bad but i can't go to lindsey and danny's show on sunday! i have to go down to the lake for a funeral :( it was my great-uncle tilmon, who ever since i've been alive has been really sick. but he was really funny and always knew my name, unlike some of my relatives who have been in perfect health their whole lives and who are half his age. he never even confused me with one of my sisters, which even my own parents do sometimes. my dad said that my great-aunt is really torn up about, so i'm glad we're going down. but i hope everyone has fun at the show!

well i'm going to eat some breakfast. and so some laundry.

xoxo

fine, whatevuh bitch!

Fri, 26 Mar 2004 00:20:09 GMT

i'm in the giggliest mood. i think it's the weather. or maybe it's the reefuh. just kidding!

i sort of have a crush on someone. and it's really stupid. because i'm too pussy to talk to him outside of class, even though i see him between every class. and he doesn't hang out with any of my friends. i dont even know who he hangs out with. so it's impossible. we have no connections. :(

tanning beds.
what's your opinion?

i got un-grounded. because of my report card. so lick it.

i got two new bras. and five new panties. i love undies. a lot! i'm thinking of maybe going in to lingerie design. but i want to do purses and shoes too. so along with your matching bra and panty set, you can have a matching bag and shoes!

SATs on saturday. i'm really scared. but rebecca and becca and i are going to bojangles before. and we always crack each other up. so it won't be too bad.

well i'm still dateless for the prom. and hey everyone, you know that one boy you keep suggesting? yah, stop it. i'm not going with him. i'd rather go with my dad.

ok i have to go watch jeopardy. i'm semi-good at jeopardy. if they had like a father-daughter thing, me and my dad would kick ass. even if they were asian. i could win wheel of fortune on my own though. unless there was an old black lady. they always win. time for trebeq.

xoxo

ps - yay for ashley for getting her lisense!

Fri, 12 Mar 2004 01:05:18 GMT

i think monday at 6:30 at los tres will work for most people for MY birthday dinner. AND SBC'S! and keegan's! and vanessa's williams! and queen latifah's! since all of our birthdays are march 18th! if you have to work or something and want me to push it back just comment, because i want EVERYONE to come! no joke! everyone on my friend's list must attend!

i had a really great day today. thanks matthew joseph osborn.

this weekend should be wonderful too!

xoxo

Thu, 11 Mar 2004 02:52:14 GMT

gosh i haven't updated in a long time. but i have something worth saying!

i want to know everyone's work/class/practice schedules for next week. i'm trying to plan a birthday dinner and i want to make sure that EVERYONE can attend. also suggestions for places to go would be great! i was thinking something along the lines of los tres. thanks!

<3!

hey chingy, why your eyes so chinky?

Thu, 12 Feb 2004 20:07:19 GMT

so i finally got my after nine license. the picture is HORRRRRRRRRRRIBLE. they zoomed in and i look huge. oh well. at least i got it.

i have kickboxing tonight at 5:30. it's an hour class. that's sort of intense. but i'm sure i will burn lots of calories!

i dont really have much to update about. hmmm. oh i have an a in clothing design, a b in us history (which can easily be pulled up when i turn in my make up work) a c in french and an incomplete in algebra 3. most teachers just don't fill the grade in when a student hasn't made up a test. odd.

oh well, i have to go finish cleaning out my car.

that seems to be true. i guess. i didn't go to school today or yesterday. i have a sinus infection and went to the doctor yesterday (finally) and got some meds. this morning my throat still felt like someone was strangling me and i had a fever. so i missed again. big deal.

so i'm really excited about this weekend. YAY.

xoxo

Wed, 04 Feb 2004 01:16:57 GMT

today i was tick, so i didn't go to school. the sad thing is my parents didn't even notice until 10 when my dad was leaving for work and noticed that my car was still in the driveway. i think i have strep throat. i used to get it so often in elementary school that after a while i didn't even have to go to the doctor. i would just tell her, yah i have strep throat and she'd look at my throat and write a prescription. no throat culture or anything.

so i just layed around and ate ice cream all day. great for my diet. i did pretty well with it yesterday too. i had to make up for sunday night when robin and i conquered the great wall of chocolate at pf chang's.

i was a little nervous about robin's bday present, and wondering if it was going to be stupid and cost too much money. thank god for ac moore. those over-charging bastards at michael's can suck it. i'm never going there again.

well i'm going to do something new and exciting. like watch tv.

Thu, 15 Jan 2004 22:46:24 GMT

today i was supposed to go get my nails done and pick out persis's present with rachel. then she was like well i have to do hw blah blah. and now she wants to do it tomorrow. i'm going dress shopping tomorrow! so i dont know if i'll have time. oh well.

ok so i am the official loser of my so called 'oc girls' clique.

amanda has a boyfriend
andrea has a boyfriend
hannah is going on a date tomorrow night
jenna is going on a date tomorow night
robin is going on a date tomorrow night

sweet.

ok so this weekend:

friday : dress shopping with nikita and kelly and whoever else wants to come, possibly getting my nails done and getting persis's present, possibly a sleepoever with the turds, except i dont know if want to hang out with a bunch of girls who just got back from dates. you understand right?

saturday: unc game with my fam, (if they didn't already give my ticket away), persis's bday party

other than that, i dont know.

today my clothing design teacher out of the blue suggested that i TA for her next year. after i stopped laughing at ta (you know, t and a...) i thought how fun that would be!

oh well, i hope everyone has a good friday.

<3

practice makes perfect

Mon, 12 Jan 2004 23:55:51 GMT

i don't really have much to update about.

the ski trip was fun. margarette fell off the side of the mountain, i realized i love all the sophomore boys at my church (at least most of them), i got really bad wind-burn (i guess that's what it's called) on my cheeks, and since i got about 5 hours sleep the whole trip and i was freezing the whole time, i got sick. so i didn't go to school today.

i'm going to do yoga before bed tonight. i want to start doing it twice a day like i used to. i was a lot happier then. and skinnier.

i guess that's it. everyone leave comments about what they did this weekend!

oh and ps - i get my after nine in 4 weeks!

A new friend will help you see a painful issue from a fresh perspective. This is an exciting time of discovery for you, Pisces. Allow your heart to open. Being vulnerable takes great strength and in the end, it affords its own protection. Express your feelings and you will experience deep healing.

Tue, 06 Jan 2004 22:12:22 GMT

i think i have a fever. for real. i'm not just trying to get out of going to school. i am actually looking forward to this semester.

i was excited that david is in my 1st period alg 3 class, until i realized we have to sit alphabetically. at least we can make faces at each other from across the room. i do get to sit next to lane alo. mr mills is so cute. he's never taught before. and he told us that! that was probably a mistake. and he kept messing up during the lesson. oh well, he's better than ms stewart.

second period i got my phone taken away thanks to nikita's text message. it was worth it though. i got it back. i am so excited about clothing design. my teacher used to work for SAKS! so she actually knows how to sew. she's also really excited about teaching our class, and kept telling us how sewing is her first love. Y A Y !

french is going to be tres difficile, but it's a class i enjoy because mrs cross is so enthusiastic. there are a lot more people in this class than last semester's. and ryan, you are right. she is going to pick on you a lot more. we have a quiz tommorow, but i was a little surprised we didn't have one today. i feel like i'm going to do well in that class.

us history is going to be EEEEZ. get this chicas: in addition to a fat-ass book, WE GOT OUR BOOK ON FUCKING CD ROM! i'm sorry, i just find that insane. anyways i think us history will be interesting. i hope we'll actually talk about politics a little bit.

maybe i'll get good grades this semester and my parents will let me have a job!

well i'm about to head out to pick up kelly. then we're going to ac moore and target and some other places probably. i'm going mom style, with my hair in a messy ponytail and slippers - THAT'S RIGHT - slippers.

i want to go see rent on sunday night. the cheapest tickets are like $25 but it's so worth it and since it's a play and it's um educational maybe your parents would pay for it...? it might just be a family thing but if not, what a fun way to end the break!? who wants to go???

i really want to sponsor a little filipino girl. her name is dona, she's three years old, and she likes to dance! i LOVE to dance! in case you're interested: http://www.children.org/childDetail.asp?id=849663&sid=102C1F24-61D1-4284-AC81-5DE7C5D3B0ED

jake lives in atlanta. and if he lived here we could be best friends. we're going to make matching blue shirts that say "omg what was he wearing?" to go with our matching blue eyes. we're going to wear them under our matching banana republic jackets when we go shopping together. once jake skipped school to meet hillary duff at the mall and she told him that she liked his outfit. in 8th grade jake gave me his chicken sandwich from bojangles. jake is going to send me pictures of himself. he says that they're black and white, and he is wearing a scarf and has facial hair. with the pictures he's sending a letter sprayed with his favorite cologne. jake keeps a journal and when he falls in love he will give her his journal. he's also p i m p.

he's coming to visit feb 14-19. and he is my valentine.

yay.

ps
i'm going to the mall tomorrow with joshua travis pope
