| Beloved was messed up
she had no right to kill her baby, even if she says that only she can make the choice. |

| Nothin' like a little one-hit wonder, 80's Hair Metal to express our feelings:
Europe - The Final Countdown
We're leaving together
but still it's farewell
and maybe we'll come back,
to earth, who can tell?
I guess there is no one to blame
we're leaving ground (leaving ground)
will things ever be the same again?
It's the final countdown.
The final countdown.
Oh, We're heading for Venus (Venus)
and still we stand tall
cause maybe they've seen us
and welcome us all, yeah
with so many light years to go
and things to be found (to be found)
I'm sure that we'll all miss her so
It's the final countdown.
The final countdown.
The final countdown (final countdown).
oh...oh
The final countdown.
Oh, it's the final countdown.
The final countdown.
The final countdown. (final countdown)
Oh, it's the final countdown
we're leaving together
The final countdown
we'll all miss her so
It's the final countdown (final countdown)
Oh, it's the final countdown
:P |

| SpeakEasy, I have been listening to that all day as well! my playlist for right now is:
The Final Countdown by Europe
Good Riddance (The Time Of Your Life) by Green Day
Anxiety by The Black Eyed Peas
Who Will Save Your Soul by Jewel
Is Anybody Listening by Danity Kane
Closer by Goapele...
They all have sad/confused/anxious undertones, besides Closer, which makes me be optomistic ("I'm getting higher and higher..closer to my dreams. It's so close I can almost reach") |

| The Bluest Eye is the only Toni Morrison I've ever read, but it was really good; I've actually been meaning to read Beloved sometime. |

| beloved was a great book. despite the somewhat, shall we say, "disturbing" nature of its content, i really enjoyed it.
what's to dislike? |

| I've been continually trying and failing at distracting myself from waiting, because college has been the only thing on my mind recently... so I went to the bookstore and bought Fat Envelope Frenzy. It satisfies my needs while passing the time. ^_^ |
