you are not my typewriter
{Sunday, April 17, 2005 . Shut Off}


I've shut myself off from the real world. I don't watch the news anymore, I don't read the news paper. It seems that even the blogs that would bring my attention back to the world stage once it strayed have stopped blogging about current events.

I guess, for all my blustering and claims to uniqueness and intellectual/moral superiority, I'm just a typical American teenager. I would much rather watch Queer Eye For The Straight Guy than MSNBC. I would much rather wallow my own wealth and comfort than be reminded that not everyone can. Even things that I claim to care intensely about pale next to an opportunity to go shopping. God I hate my generation. And I hate even more that I'm such a ... part of it.

And to prove to you, reader, just how shallow I truly am, I'm going to post some of my senior pictures on my buzznet.
