Late-Night Musings

When people get a little strange in the head.

Late-Night Musings

When the hours blur together (usually this occurs between 4 A.M. and 6 A.M., when 'too late' becomes 'too early'), the mind tends to go a bit wonky...

And what results is a random conglomeration of totally irrelevant, non sequitur trains of thought. Here's a peek at what the mind of Julianne wanders off to explore at the wispy hours of late nights/early mornings. (Coincidentally as I compile this, it is 4:08 A.M.)

4:08:05 a.m. I wonder what would happen if I wrote love poetry for myself?

4:08:30 a.m. What if I used toothpaste as face wash, and face wash as toothpaste?

4:09:00 a.m. What if I just never washed anything?

4:13:12 a.m. Why is the Twilight Saga soundtrack so good?! (Also... Why "saga"? Like, that just sounds so pretentious and ridiculous.)

4:20:01 a.m. I could legally get married right now. But I have no one to marry.

4:20:45 a.m. Though, I suppose that's not true... If I went to Vegas I bet I could find some random kiddo ready to jump the gun.

4:25:32 a.m. I wonder what it was like to be Kurt Vonnegut. Did he have a wife?

4:30:20 a.m. Pubic hair is like... a vagina beard. Like a full on beard. That was so wrong. I should probably delete that.

4:31:02 a.m. But I won't.

4:31:10 a.m. I want breakfast. Three more hours to go before the servery opens...

4:32:00 a.m. Oh. My. Gosh. I am so hungry.

4:47:09 a.m. I wonder if anyone would yell at me if I just ran up and down the central stairwell. But then, why would I ever want to do that?

5:02:12 a.m. Roommate: Let's have some drunken kung fu!

Me: No. That is a terrible idea. (At least I was coherent enough to realize that.)

5:15:34 a.m. Huh. Taylor Swift is pretty hot. Too bad she seems like... not the nicest person in the world.

5:27:45 a.m. One day they're going to find a way to marry yourself. And by "they" I mean me. I've thought about this, yeah. Isn't marriage the celebration and declaration of your love? Why can't you do that for yourself? Right?

6:01:03 a.m. That moment when you think you're gonna stay up for breakfast and feel like a badass mofo, but you're just fooling yourself. You're going to fall asleep. And miss your morning classes.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
