I am bitch and all that come before me

 I am committing to finishing bell hooks this week, I want to start Giovani's Room by James Baldwin. So I am reading bell hooks and it according to me that while I have heard and understood what 'self actualized' means I only know it by my context clues  definition  and not the textbook definition.   Self actualized: means realizing and fulfilling your unique potential, creative abilities and your personal desires. (Coined by Kurt G.) Maslow's hierarchy of needs is a conceptualization of needs  that motivate human behavior. I needed to write this definition because I wanted to talk about what I am reading and I did not want to discuss without knowing what I am talking about.    "Young women want to embrace the "hard bitch" image because it keeps them from having to confront the pain that comes when females are pain that comes when females are punished for choosing to be self-actualized and successful."  What we do think, are we embracing...

just because we are

kay, I made a mistake. I deleted all my blog post from 10+ years ago, so I won't be able to see how much I grew or if I actually did. But whatever, I don't know what I am going to write about, even if I am going to write or if I am doing this is b/c I am bored on a Saturday night on my last night of Thanksgiving weekend. I am Anissa. I am 26. I was born and will die a Southern girl. I for those who are interested am an Aries sun, Cancer moon and rising. I still do not know who am I or even if I am. I hated metaphysics, but "I think, therefor I am." so yeah maybe I am b/c I think I am sarcastic and vaguely resemble a 



    Now it is June 21, 2025 and I am 29 and I still hate metaphysics b/c of the unknown, I also wrote that in November 26, 2022. "I think therefore I am" although I now know that is not metaphysics pretty sure that is rationalism....after a quick Google search I was right. No I do not think anyone would understand who I am but I am sure of what I want to be and how to get there. I am a Library Science graduate student with dreams of working for the Library of Congress. I hope to live well and I hope in 10 year I can still say my favorite book is On the Road by Jack K. I still hope to be able to laugh at things I thought were a big deal and they were not. I type like I talk in a ramble fashion, with random quotes and facts when I can. On Saturdays I do 'Cinema Saturday', where I just watch movies I have not seen or maybe sometimes have seen, it just depends on my mood. I do not know how long to make blogs. Today, I went to my grandmother's house so I was not able to watch as much as I would like but I am watching Eraserhead directed by  David Lynch. It is very surreal and makes me feel. Movies like this I remember forever. Okay so what else, I am single and I do not mind. I am living in Metairie but this time next year I hope to be moving out of state maybe to San Fran, Miami or a place that has a beach. I do not know how to end this off, I do not think I talked about anything profound or this blog will be my magnum opus but I am here and I am willing to speak. Maybe do a different topic everyday even on the days where nothing makes sense. I will end off by saying I am an Absurdist which I would like to explain what that is. An Absurdist is - a belief that the universe is irrational and meaningless. It states that trying to find meaning leads people with a seemingly meaningless world. A core tenant of absurdism is to find meaning in the meaningless. I just found that picture I added maybe I can do that on June 22, although it is now June 22. Here is my quote:
"The realization that life can is absurd cannot be an end, but only a beginning." - Albert Camus
