I TRY TO MAKE THINGS IN AN ENVIRONMENT
OF
CONTROLLED LUNACY
don't be calm jump first ask questions later
something good comes from kinda being out of control
don't be so hard on yourself mistakes are good-i think they help us to see
it's so beautiful to see someone who has made something and didn't quite know what they were doing but did it anyway-when you can really see the fire was under their feet and they had to make it or else

this is a new person i want to meet.

updates soon i swear i swear
I'll write a more COPIOUS post later....like maybe tomorrow...

....put it in a boat
light it on fire
you can use the gasoline
you can send me out to sea

Haha not really depressed in a body burning way. Viking funerals are just COOL.

prepare for the rant.

Anywho, first week of school is done and i think we can survive. Classes are actually pretty fun this year.
And I don't think I'm too worried about the future anymore. Still not sure art school-wise...but whatever I do it won't be because of what someone else thinks.
I know it was that guy at CMU who sparked the flame, but truth be told it was when i first visited w/ clare before i met him that did it...i snagged one of those art college brochure things and mentioned it to my parentals...and got a ho-hum response. So i put it in with the rest of my art college stash. But now that I actually told them that I might be really interested in it, they're okay with it. As okay as parents can be.
I think I would feel better about it if they were something less imposing than lawyers, so I didn't feel as though I had to be something equally imposing. Not to impress or even appease them, just to make me feel like I was accomplishing something big.
But I don't think I feel like that anymore. I'm just going to pick a place that I like, pick classes that I like, and be what I like, not what teachers or interviewers or parents suggest to me. I really don't now yet what exactly, but I'M GONNA FIND OUT. And hopefully get some good food whilst I'm finding out

One big careerish factor is that I want to be proud of whatever I do. No offense to CEOS or marketing directors or tv anchors or anything, but I don't think i can wear that badge proudly. Dolphin trainer's sounding pretty good right now.

on a more exciting note, hip hip for katie at her new educational camp! She is our pioneer into this world of wonder.

and NEWSFLASH
THE HARRY POTTER EGG IS DEAD
SOMEONE SMASHED HIM
OR SAT ON HIM
VOLDERMORT PROBABLY
OR THE AMISH PEOPLE WHO GO THERE
sad news indeed. we may have to make another one.

and I found this really awesome bizi-ness:

all their jewelry is made out of seeds to provide an alternative for ivory. I know it's illegal to import/ex ivory, but apparently the UN lifted this for some countries. Way to go kids.
so these will probably be your xmas/ winter solstice presents!

I'm reading over the college rant right now and it sounds really lame. But it felt good to type it all up so thanks for putting up with it

LONG LIVE POTTER THE EGG

heyyy kids.....i finally updated!!! it was being slow so i only got two things up but i will try to get more soon. dudedudedude like three days till minnesota!!! i really can't wait, but i have a crap load of stuff to do before i go.
summer seems like its going by so fast...( i usually try to hurt the person who says this but it's true) but, like the korean baristas say, FIGHTING!!!!
just saw da dark knight yesterday...twas awesome. so sad for harvey. not so sad for rachel. it was great but nothing like i remember of the old tv series...except maybe the creepiness. i'm going to hunt those down and get them! and samauri jack!! and hey arnold!!!
then life will be a step closer to completeness.
oh! if YOU want YOUR life to be a step closer to completeness (like meee), then CLICK HEREEE [link]
seriously. this made me so happy
someday we will go travel everywhere like this awesome guy....i hope u guys get happy too! or if you're sad, at least have fun being sad! altho julio seems to be the only one to have mastered this...
FIGHTING!!

and if home is really where the heart is
then wer're the smartest kids I know
because wherever we are in this great big world
we'll never be more than a few hours from home
and that's important because I need to travel
I've had this itchin in my shoes since I was just a little kid....

....your ass!
but in other newsss there is no other news. i just wanted a new journal
my wisdom teefs is out and i am feeling loads better but still unable to eat like a normal person, which is starting to really annoy me. pureed peaches are all right for some fine folks but i want some FREAKING BRUSCHETTAAAAAAA!!!
i've just finished pride and prejudice, and i liked it a WHOLE load more than i thought i would- girls were such nasty bi-otches back then!!!
you couldn't let your guard down for five seconds for fear of having your marriage destroyed or a crocheting needle stabbed in your back!
i guess it still is like that but jeez, at least most people now are mean to your face! unlike the old-timey british, who seem to have a talent for displaying perfect manners and politeness while verbally abusing you. but that's what makes them awesome.
anywayyyy...what i came on to say was i seriously am going to use this site for what it was concieved for in the beginning of time and fulfill its purpose- i WILL UPDATE
soon.
but not probably til a fortnight is nigh, for kitty and i are off to meryton with wickham to prepare a cucumber and salad, and i daresay if you're obliged to come and join us, please do, my good friends!
cuz we rock the hood in meryton.


-Oh, Brooklyn's on fire, and fills July hearts with desire
Sleep will not come, until the morn
Cause tonight your memory is born
La dee da, la dee da.... (loverly song

um...this prolly wont make sense unless you listen to 'handlebars' first by flobots.

then you can read this.

I like to use words that I don't know
that I don't know
that I don't know

I can bore the shit outta anyone
with my pointless blogs
all about myself

Look at me, look at me
I need some attention can't you see
I'm not your average teen drama queen
I'm spillin out thoughts like my pal FitzG.

I'll prove to you I'm a prodigy..
Show you some genius like Kenny G
I can change the world with my beliefs
And piss off the people that don't agree

I know you don't know who I"m talking bout
when i'm slammin all the kids i wanna bitch out
i disguise it so well with general words like "this damn bitch" and "those damn hoes"

Me and my bloggers we know whats up
the world ain't kind its just plain fucked
I just gotta tell you all
How hard it is to be a middle class white chick

Cause I am seein' shit that don't exist
That don't exist
That don't exist

My prose is filled with words that I can't pronounce
that I can't pronounce
that I can't pronounce

I don't trust in God, I'm an evangelist
An evangelist
An evangelist

- thanks mostly to the idea of morgan and the lyric-skills of julio, who seems to be channelling raine maida tonight...
