sylvia plath’s notes to self from her first year at cambridge university, april 1956

why am i dressed slutty you ask? to read classic literature alone in my room. mind your own business.

“How many thousands have I spent on perfume and alcohol, cigarettes and Turkish baths, disappointing trips and third-class movies; how many months in silent bars or parks, expecting, in a chair with a book not reading, or waiting in line, waiting in line? Who will tell me it’s a loss when I know life must be for pleasure? The parks were balanced by museums, the baths by oceans, bars by composition, and the dreaming chair by books finished. Nothing is waste that makes a memory.”

—   Ned Rorem, The Paris Diary & The New York Diary: 1951-1961
