heyho hah. no classes tdy b/c there are no classes tdy! hehh. i just realised tt its not all that impossible to do law at melbourne uni.. all u need is a 90% average.. haha if u think this is daunting, it isnt when i tell u i first thought i had to obtain a 99.3% average. well well. enough of those stats. i hate numbers of all sorts.

the following is extracted from this damn good book im reading right now : the female eunuch by germaine greer

"Women are so brainwashed about the physical image that they should have that, despite popular fiction on the point, they rarely undress with eclat. They are often apologetic abt their bodies, considered in relation to that plastic object of desire whose image is radiated throughout the media. Their breastst and buttocks are always too large or small, the wrong shape, or too soft, their arms too hairy or too muscular or too thin, their legs too short, or too hefty, and so forth.

Not all the apology is fishing for compliments. They are actually apologising.

It is a commonplace observation that women are forever trying to straighten their hair if it is curly and curl it if it is straight, bind their breasts if they are small, darken their hair if it is light, and lighten it if it is dark.

Not all these measures are dictated by the fanthom of fashion. They all reflect dissatisfaction with the body as it is, and an insistent desire that might be otherwise, not natural but controlled, fabricated."
