I'm not ready to grow up.
Everyone seems so excited about graduating. I still have a year and one semester left, and I’m already dreading it. I have no idea what to do with my life. All of my friends have big dreams, and are moving away to university together. I’m going to be the one left behind, to do and achieve nothing. I fucking hate it. Of course we’ll try and keep contact, but life will get in the way and my friends and I will slowly drift apart. I’ll probably never hear or see from them again, and that scares me to the point of tears.
“That foundation rested on our critique of what we then called “the enemy within,” referring to our internalized sexism. We all knew firsthand that we had been socialized as females by patriarchal thinking to see ourselves as inferior to men, to see ourselves as always and only in competition with one another for patriarchal approval, to look upon each other with jealousy, fear, and hatred. Sexist thinking made us judge each other without compassionand punish one another harshly. Feminist thinking helped us unlearn female self-hatred. It enabled us to break free of the hold patriarchal thinking had on our consciousness.”
