You've no idea how envious I am of you, anon. I'm in my mid-late 20s now, assuming I get in next year (which I'm relatively sure I will), I'll be a few years into my 30s when I'm done.

You have no idea how much I wish I could experience an initiation into the Eleusinian mysteries

I feel things most of you wouldn't be able to understand.

I just wish In Search of Lost Time would come back into print in my country. The latest edition is from 2005 - 2010, and it's paperback. I had to shell out over $100 to get a sun-bleached set that didn't even include the footnote/registry volume.

alright man
my essay is 100% objective and i had to write it from an unbiased standpoint
the topic i chose was "is obesity a disease?" and i had to write from both sides
i am an obese man but i believe it is not a disease unless diagnosed by hypothyroidism or prader-willi syndrome or that kind of shit. fat genetics isn't real.
i used relatively simple prose, just enough to communicate the source material into my own summaries. there's nothing complicated or original about it. it's an objective essay for fucking english comp 101. i'm 8 years too late for this class.
>unrelated: i write as a copywriter online marketing
freshman english makes me suicidal i wish i wasn't a useless fuck when i was 18 i could've been done with this shit by now

Vi kom från Jorden, Doris land,
klenoden i vårt solsystem,
det enda klot där Livet fått
ett land av mjölk och honung.
Beskriv de landskap som där fanns,
de dagar som där grydde.
Beskriv den människa som i glans
sitt släktes likdräkt sydde
tills Gud och Satan hand i hand
i ett förstört, förgiftat land
kring berg och backar flydde
för människan: askans konung.

Så gick til hvila, från Slagsmål och Bal,
Grälmakar Löfberg, din maka;
Där, dit åt gräset långhalsig och smal,
Du än glor tilbaka.
Hon från Danto bommen skildes i dag,
Och med Hänne alla lustiga lag;
Hvem skall nu Flaskan befalla.
Torstig var hon och uttorstig är jag;
Vi ä torstiga alla.
