petty thievery

i am feeling so awfully adolescent today. so many moronic things going on, which i am briskly becoming part of since i frankly have no other choice. this has happened one too many times before, this little conflict i always seem to have. people should, as i mentioned in a previous blog, keep to their own identities and not clash with others'.. it's truly pathetic. but, nonetheless, i am once again trying to compose myself and being the champ' that i am, i will get up on my feet. hopefully, i will manage. if not, some fresh parisian air will assist me in this process. i am determined to make the most of my summer, sans connards. maybe some hymen breakage will do me some good.
speaking of hymen breakage, tonight we will be working in my mum's store for a project some classmates and I have, and the outfit I have chosen to wear is one that bears an uncanny resemblance to a certain character that goes by the name of Dolores Haze. Nabokov's eyes would just water, i tell you!
Well, whilst i try to cope with such surroundings, i will leave you with a little Nabokov quote regarding the release of his novel, Lolita.

"I would say that of all my books Lolita has left me with the most pleasurable afterglow —perhaps because it is the purest of all, the most abstract and carefully contrived. I am probably responsible for the odd fact that people don't seem to name their daughters Lolita any more. I have heard of young female poodles being given that name since 1956, but of no human beings."
