[So, you called me this morning. My voice was still raspy from this cold that only seems to linger until I've fully woken up, but you didn't mention it. Our conversation wasn't awkward. You asked me how I was doing, what exams I had left, when I was heading home to Comox for the holidays, and if I would like to get together sometime soon....

And today I was walking on cement and watching the sky. The only word I could think to describe it was "polar"- but of course, that is spurious. Suddenly, without warning, there was clarity of thought for the first time in several weeks, maybe even months. Unfortunately, it was not the kind of clarity that lends itself to helping me realize what it is I...

I liked it. It was good story. I was just thinking that what you said is basically the main thing I pulled from the book.
I have fond memories of people from my parents church borrowing my copy of it from my mother. All the comments I got back were to the effect of "interesting read". It was funny having all these devout Christians who believe in absolute truth wanting to read it because they heard that review that said, "It will make you believe in God." (Which was a ridiculous statement that was obviously not the authors intent.) But after reading it they all realized they had been flummoxed into reading an argument for relativism.
and then I found five dollars.
I'm off to take my psyc exam. I hate this class, but it's the easiest exam i'm going to take.

It wasn't as bad as I'd feared, but it was still pretty horrible. Unfortunately, I have to go back again, but I'm not sure when.
And hi.
And hi.
Kids, I'm back. And I would like to publicly thank Mr. jasonmcdermott for getting me back on the site, as well as Malloreigh and pixxy for selling my best qualities without any shame. I appreciate all of it. This was the most wonderful thing to wake up to this morning.
Now I have to hold true to my word and post on the boards...

hey you're back. coolio.
sorry my weekend entries suck, proper response to com.e.

I just went on the most pleasant walk in the rain. My gold umbrella above me, my black sneakers hopping over puddles, headlights in my eyes and up my nose and on my cheeks. Cars don't seem to have much regard for pedestrians, ever, but it becomes even more apparent when it's raining this hard. The whole "one minute I'm dry and warm, the next...

Thanks. I'm not sure how I'd look in paint yet anyways.
icantplayguitar:
still thinking. I'm not that funny.
that's not what i'm thinking about though.
The character sketch bit is a good idea, yoink.

One exam down, one to go.
A week to kill with tea, Latin, cleaning, liquor, movies and friends.
A new place to live come January first.
A bank account that's teetering dangerously on "flat broke".
A hope for a Christmas without any drama. Just rum & eggnog, chatting with my grandparents about their lives, making mix tapes to drive around Comox with, and cooking with...

lemonkid:
Yeah. I dunno.
I wanna jump jump jump rope and play hop hop hopscotch and drink brandy overlooking the sea and never ever forget and swim as a fish amongst starfish [your eyes blue with dots of red, yellow, green] crawl crawl crawling over barnacles and watch the clouds float by in unrecognized intangible shapes and rollerskate with you on that crumbled cement road and so a secret...

also, i think some bridges fall into disrepair and crumble. they don't necessarily burn themselves, but they fall anyway.
lemonkid:
What color are my eyes? I think that they're green.
I live like such a slob when I'm in my own suite. It's almost amusing how radically different it is than living with roommates- with them, I'm all respectful and whatnot. Here, I have nobody to answer to... except for the landlady.
She's five times the worst roommate I've ever had, and hell, she's not even supposed to act like a goddamn roommate. I gave...

Don't begrudge me my science.
I believe I excell in fields like... biology.

I'm an expert on hard science I'll have you know.
As predicted, life is wonderful again.
So deliciously delightful.

I got somethin' but I don't know what it is.
lemonkid:
Nope. Thanks for posting it twice though.
I feel really emo and silly saying this, but I think I'm beyond crying right now.
I just want to be held and kissed and told that maybe everything will be okay. Or that even if it won't be okay, I will be okay.
But instead, I get to spend all day tomorrow in the library, researching and frantically paper-writing. Hur-fucking-rah.

It's all eventually going to be OK. Things won't be the same in a week let alone a month. (oh, and *hugs*)
And besides, isn't self-torture what being a student is all about?

Thank you.
I save almost all of my stories for el-jay.
This weekend involves end-of-semester homework, tea with my mother, seeing Alexander, and generally chillaxin' with friends. And I'll likely be getting my mattress back at some point from ze ex-loverboy, so that should be a wonderfully fun time for all involved. That can wait until tomorrow, though, so there's no need thinking about it now....

You're obssessed with the Earl's fabulous invention. But who could blame you?

I bet you'd be feeling scrumstralescent if you had more cowbell.
Apparently, I rather close to you. I'm in Victoria.
