I saw him at the Met Breuer last year. It was like...WE were panopticonning HIM. poetic justice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omg same I keep picking up unknown numbers because any call could be *the call*, but the more you pick up the more they call. Ughhhh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jadeisokay Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 (edited) does anyone else have senioritis bad? barely a quarter-way into this last semester and my brain checked out already. thinking about apps/moving/health insurance/medical issues and moving... there's not a lot of space left over and my brain didn't have much room to begin with. on a happier note, i just had a fantastic vegan donut. probably not what my body needed after the gym but very soothing for the soul if anything.

Y E S. The amount to which I've been phoning it in in my classes is extreme. In one of my classes I literally just peruse GradCafe for the entire hour. The other day I said to my housemate "I don't have any homework!" and she said "Listen. I know for a fact you do have homework. You're just not doing it!" mustmatatus and jadeisokay 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

havemybloodchild Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 I graduated last spring, and now I spend time wishing I were back at school, talking theories with my classmates, doing research in the library, and crashing my professor's office hours to pick their brains. Haha, the grass is always greener, I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been digging back into the work of Czeslaw Milosz, who is a particular fave of mine. Also, I bought Ocean Vuong's Night Sky with Exit Wounds at a Planned Parenthood used book sale in the fall, and just now got around to reading it. It's AMAZING. I'm also a huge fan of Chen Chen. These three are probably my favorites of his: Poplar Street: https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poetrymagazine/poems/58154/poplar-street Poem in Noisy Mouthfuls: https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/143242/poem-in-noisy-mouthfuls I'm Not A Religious Person But https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poetrymagazine/poems/58152/im-not-a-religious-person-but Also recommend signing up for the poets.org Poem-A-Day thing--sends one poem every morning to your email!
