The cosmic egg of time and space

Wee. I was supposed to be productive today but I wasn't. June is nearly over but I've barely started on my homework. My sister was hogging the computer. I spent the weekend reading Lolita. It wasn't as good as it's hyped up to be. I don't like reading long books and this book didn't have to be this long. Many pages were very boring. About four pages were spent describing the cities Lo and Humbert visited and seven were spent describing Lo playing tennis. I wondered "How is this relevant ton the plot at all?" It was also annoying how Humbert used French phrases throughout the book and I didn't understand most of them. Many parts were funny though, especially near the beginning and the end. I don't see why the book is so controversial. It's not explicit or anything. It's PG-13. I want to see the movie but the reviews for both the 1962 and 1997 version aren’t that good. The ending made feel sympathy for the main character though. Lo was such a crude, manipulative, and rowdy character though. She seemed nothing like the amarori's and gosurori's you see at cons. I guess the 'Lolita' part of Gothic/Sweet Lolita only refers to youth and nothing else. I have no one to borrow anime from. I might have to actually start buying it. 0.0 I don't work though so I have no income. T.T My dad won't let me work or sell stuff anyway. He says that I don't need money My mom is teaching me to sew. I'm too impatient and inattentive to be good at this. I was just excited at the thought of being able to sew my own clothes instead of buying stuff on clearance at Wal-Mart. I don't know anything about fashion anyway. I wish that we wore uniforms to school. I wore uniforms from the time I was 2 years old until I finished middle school. I hate that people treat me differently because I don't dress like them. I know that uniforms wouldn't make us all 'equal'. In the seventh grade a kid was mean to me because my sneakers were “imitation addidas” to school. I, being ignorant about brand names and anything trendy, didn’t even know what addidas were. I bough the sneakers because I thought they looked nice. Still, uniforms would eliminate some of the teasing. People who oppose uniforms say that it constricts their individuality. The funny thing is that most people in my school dress alike depending on who their friends are. Even the people wearing the most outrageous clothes have at least five people who dress exactly like them. So, that’s all I have to say.
