One of the things I love about oasis is that you can say whatever you need to. Yes it is a community for queer and questioning youth, but just because that's what it's for doesn't mean that that's all it has to be or all that can be discussed.
Being able to come here and just rant about whatever inane things are bothering is freeing
Being able to come here and joke around with people or share stories or debate is amazing.
Even though I've only been a member here for a short amount of time in comparison to some people, it's hard for me to remember a time when I didn't come home every afternoon and check to see if someone had commented on my latest entry, rant about what frustrated me about my day, or see if anyone had posted anything entertaining.
Anyway, as to why I wrote this, I want to talk about plaster, which is a substance I am currently covered in. Somewhere out there is a plaster mask in the shape of my face, the residue of which is currently stuck to my eyelids. However, since this entry is called what I love, I'm going to make a list of things I love. This may sound shallow, but I am going to skip over my family. The fact that I love them has already been established, this list is purely non-family. (By the way, this in not necessarily in order of how much I love these things)
1. The Library. It's cheesy but my local library is amazing and I love to read.
2. Thai food. BTW I worship at the shrine of Phad Thai.
3. Korean Food.
4. I am just going to come out and say this ( no pun intended) Asian food in general.
5. Girlyman. Yay for Doris!
6. Camp. I haven't talked about it much yet, but my camp means the world to me. It's my favorite place in the world.
7. Once. I swear to god if I ever meet Marketa Irglova I will fucking bow at her feet.
8. Gay english teachers with baby twin boys, aka my sixth grade english teacher who just had babies with his partner (long story).
9. Chocolate. What can I say it was love at first taste.
10. Okay… we’re just gonna say food in general and get that out of the way.
11. My headphones. Good sound makes ALL the difference.
12. My iPod. I love the little bugger.
13. CDs. I still have to say that I like buying CDs much better than using iTunes, I really don’t know why.
14. People. Specifically, I like nice people. Most of the time, I’m a people person!
15. Music. I just like music. Yes I have specific favorites and there are bands and singers and orchestra’s that I don’t like, but in general, music is the shit.
16. Laudate Dominum. Motzart was the fucking MAN.
17. Bubble tea. I know I said no more food, but I don’t know if anyone has had thai milk tea with coconut jelly. It is possibly the only thing I can think of that makes me think there is a god
18. S. One of my best friends, also one of the few reasons I am not entirely Lesbian.
19. Karate. It’s fun, it feels good, and it makes me feel like a TOTAL badass
20. Zoom. No, it’s not that PBS tv show from forever. No, it’s not a mazda. It’s what I call my cat. She is in fact named Chelsea, but Zoom, which is short for Zoomzoom suits her much better.
21. Piñatas. They are the shit. You hit them and then there’s candy. I only say this cause I have one on my desk… hehe
22…There are lot’s of things I love, I honestly can’t think of anymore.

To tell the truth, I wrote this list because I feel really mopey and disconnected a lot, but I don’t know why, so I wrote this list to remind myself that there are TONS of fucking amazing things in my life!
