getting bigger and sleeker and wider and brighter

11. dear prospective lovers: the way too my heart? long hair, artistic talent of the musical/visual/linguistic variety, and a mix cd with tom waits - i hope that i don't fall in love with you.

12. i can sum up the past year or so of my life in three songs: neutral milk hotel - song against sex, conor oberst and the mystic valley band - breezy and bob dylan - it ain't me, babe. not nessecarily their meanings (although a bit i guess), but just the memories they invoke and the feelings they bring up.

13. my favourite poem in the world:
since feeling is first
e.e. cummings

since feeling is first
who pays any attention
to the syntax of things
will never wholly kiss you;
wholly to be a fool
while Spring is in the world

my blood approves,
and kisses are a better fate
than wisdom
lady i swear by all flowers. Don't cry
—the best gesture of my brain is less than
your eyelids' flutter which says

we are for each other: then
laugh, leaning back in my arms
for life's not a paragraph

And death i think is no parenthesis

14. i've dabbled in a lot of arts. i used to paint when i was little, my grandfather (who is now dead) gave me a beautiful wooden case with a set of paints when i was about 7. i won some art contest and had a painting made into a postcard for the christmas craft fair. i painted the inside of a dollhouse my mom made when she was pregnant with me and made a ridiculous ammount of furniture for it out of bits and pieces of things (what up, milk creamer garbage can) i've been dancing since i was 5, stopped for two years, and started again this year. definitely happy to have started again. i was even in a musical in grade 8, ~hansel and gretel~ but i can't sing for shit and so idk why they gave me a lead. theatre feels like home though, more than i can explain.

15. i used to really, really love pink floyd.

16. alan shore makes me want to be a lawyer. james spader is a sexy bitch.


17. i used to kind of want to be alexis bledel in sin city

18. or anna paquin in almost famous
19. i tamed wild kittens when i was little and danced at community hall dances.

20. like every other teenage girl, i have trust issues. i'm a lot better than i used to be, though.

sticks and stems

What a beautiful face
I have found in this place
That is circling all round the sun
What a beautiful dream
That could flash on the screen
In a blink of an eye and be gone from me
Soft and sweet
Let me hold it close and keep it here with me, me

And one day we will die
And our ashes will fly from the aeroplane over the sea
But for now we are young
Let us lay in the sun
And count every beautiful thing we can see
Love to be
In the arms of all I'm keeping here with me, me

What a curious life we have found here tonight
There is music that sounds from the street
There are lights in the clouds
Anne's ghost all around
Hear her voice as it's rolling and ringing through me
Soft and sweet
How the notes all bend and reach above the trees, trees


just a quick post before i head off to school.. i was at a friends house last night working on a biology project invloving plants and clothing and her brother modelling the finished product for us. we're pretty sure we're going to get an A and we're only about 1/3 done. we're thinking of creating a line called sticks and stems. i hope you all look forward to the pictures that i'll be posting more likely today after schooly(all i can say is thank god for our three day weekends, eh breezy?). my friend SB seriously rocked the modelling, although she thinks i'm lying. seriously. can i just say that when you see these pictures you will be amazed at how beautiful she is? and she doesn't think she's pretty. enough ranting. i have a pug staring at me longingly and some coffee to drink. please excuse this post, i am half asleep.
