“the legislative history that exists suggests it is intended to prevent hippies and hippie communes from participating in the food stamp program. the equal protection clause does not allow that a constitutional desire to harm a politically unpopular group can constitute a legitimate governmental interest.”

yesterday i had a bizarre dream
if you dont watch dexter, it probably wont make sense to you. but you know how dexter sees and talks to his dad? well, i was a ghost he could see and talk to, just like that. so his dad and me would kinda just stick with him. he killed this couple (the one that travis killed and took over their house if you watched last weeks ep). and later, his brother, who wasnt rudy, but someone dream me...
i would make a great dictator
i wish i had the power to make doing something i dont want to do something that could be considered a badge or incident of slavery, thus making that thing illegal as a violation of the 13th amendment, which prohibits slavery and involuntary servitude in this country (except as a punishment) as well as gives congress the power to enact whatever laws necessary to enforce that power.

despite the bitter pill that is finals,
i survive, if only because i know that waiting for me in my bedroom at home is murakami’s latest novel, 1Q84. ever since i first heard that this was to be the title of the book, i have been dying to get my hands on it and read it. 1984 is one of the greatest books i have ever read, and i love that underlying theme. no, that was not a typo. for those of you who do not understand, i will...

i love you
ive always been in love with the idea of knowing you and i are falling sleep with the same moon watching over us, even though were far apart. the sand, silvered, carries the moon, on its shoulders. is it possible to put this night to tune, and move it to you?
ive also always been in love with the idea of sunday morning. waking up entwined in bed with you, sunlight streaming through the...
obligatory thanksgiving post
i am thankful for my family, the coco, my super awesome wonderful friends, and the fact that i am still drunk this morning. no, not really, its actually kinda annoying. im thankful for the fact that even if my life isnt perfect, its interesting—the shit that happens to me dont happen to no one else, and im glad im unique like that.
happy thanksgiving, bitches n hoez!

toast
as promised, here is my toast for sara and shane’s wedding. i was told that it was really good, and the best toast given~
hi everyone,
my name is puja, and i’m a friend of the bride, sara. she’s that girl over there, in case you don’t know her. anyway, i met sara four years ago at berkeley, when she sat behind me in italian 1. i, always super responsible, would be...
a real fairy tale wedding
the cutuli-franklin wedding blew kim kardashians out of the park, and i can say that without having even seen the kardashian wedding on e. i never want to forget this weekend.
from my spot in the bridal party, i watched shane as he cried while sara walked down the aisle with her dad. she was crying too. her parents gave her away, and then sara read her vows. as soon as she finished, shane...

day thirty
(3 things you love and 3 things that you hate about tumblr)
i neither love nor hate anything about tumblr. i do like that i can post things fairly simply though. sometimes i dont like that i feel like i have to censor my posts here though. but those posts i leave on my livejournal so it works out fine either way.
30 day challenge is now over :o
day twenty-nine
(the year of your life you loved most and why)

&exeunt.
day twenty-seven
(tell us about your sexuality - do you think its possible to be completely straight?)
i prefer men. i believe it is possible to be completely straight. i also believe most straight people can be attracted to people of the same sex sometimes.
day twenty-six
(5 things you look for in a person/relationship)
1. first and foremost, someone around whom i can be myself. if i cant be comfortable enough with someone to let them see me at my worst, then they sure as hell dont deserve me at my best.
2. someone i can talk to about anything and everything. i dont like feeling like i have to censor myself. and i would not want to be with someone i dont feel...
day twenty-five
(a picture of you a while ago/a picture of you now and your thoughts)
the first one was taken my freshman year at berkeley. it was right after caltopia, i am holding this black and white framed johnny depp poster thing that they were auctioning off to whoever won this basketball game toss thing, and it was john and a bunch of girls in line who wanted the poster. but john won the game first,...
day twenty-four
(list everything you have eaten/plan to eat today)
i have not yet eaten today, because im going to the doctor later to figure out why my stomach feels abnormally full after eating less than my normal portions (which arent super huge anyway) and they might want me to not have eaten. this has been going on since monday, and i think its why i threw up after lunch -__- if the school doctor knows...
day twenty-three
(tell us about you acidemically - how well youre doing at school/college, your subjects, future plans for higher education/careers)
first of all, its spelled academically…im doing alright, i suppose. in law school you pretty much just have finals. some classes have midterms, and others writing assignments, but thats generally it. whenever ive been called on in my classes ive been able to...
day twenty-two
(a letter to somebody who means a lot to you)
do you remember how on saturday night (well, technically sunday morning) you were telling me about how you put in your 100% effort into sports, because otherwise you feel cheated? i didnt really say anything then, but the truth is, i figured this out about you awhile ago. you dont half ass things; you give everything your all, and its one of the...
day twenty-one
(on a scale of 1-10, 10 being ridiculously happy and 1 feeling rock bottom, how happy are you today?)
around a 9. i woke up to gchats from sonya telling me she read the email i sent her last week and her response was positive! alex was never mad at me, and her and jeff are back together! it is my bb boy, fonzies birthday today! boyfriend has a crush on ryan godling! the only thing stopping...
day twenty
(someone youre jealous of and why)
im dont get jealous of other people. its counterproductive, and im ridiculously awesome. other people get jealous of me. i am, however, jealous of my boyfriends ability to sleep for a zillion hours at the drop of a hat, whereas i am cursed with insomnia. unless im studying or in class, that is. then i have narcolepsy.
day nineteen
(a photo of you from the last time you went out—tell us about it)
sadly, i do not have a photo. but it was last night. rachel and i went to see the sounds at webster hall in manhattan (the show was from 6-11) and then we stayed at the web so that we could see nero (12-4). it was a pretty crazy adventure running from the gremlin old lady who like wanted to kick us out cuz we had the wrong...
day eighteen
(a quote you live by)
“in three words i can sum up everything ive learned about life: it goes on.”
- robert frost
day seventeen
(something you worry about a lot)
i try not to worry about too many things, because there is no real point in worrying about things that have not yet come (since you dont know they necessarily will come/happen), but i find myself concerned over my future more than anything else.
day sixteen
(go on your dashboard, write down the name of the 3 first blogs whose posts appear and tell us whod you marry, who youd fuck, and whod you kill)
nanabuuui - marry
parrtydiaries - kill
laughingsquid - fuck
day fifteen
(tell us about something you feel strongly about)
gay rights. why? because i dont believe that some people were born more equal than others. this means that everyone is equal, and as such, should have equal rights. i just cant understand why some people are so backwards and cant get this concept through their thick, useless skulls. blah blah blah religion. religion is fine, i get that some...
Imagine having a teacher named Alejandro, so...
