Semester is over, passed all my classes. (Go me.) Working at the theatre rocks. (It's a little weird.) Everything else is pretty much the same. Which doesn't bother me one bit. Should be getting a car soon, if not soon then by next semester. Won't really be able to afford to put gas in it so i'm not sure what i'm thinking. It's all good though. We're having a beer-b-q tonight. I should call Anna. |

finals week is finally here. on monday i perform my monologue(act 2 scene 2 of the crucible, which was cut out of most productions other than the original and can be found in the appendix), hand in a paper on toni morrison's beloved(great book) and take a test on brave new world. wednesday is just to get grades on those three things and thursday is my abnormal psych final. which i probably wont do good on. i actually failed the test on the anxiety and personality disorders chapter. i know, right? that's like not being able to write an autobiography. i don't know if i really failed it, he uses that standard deviation curve bullshit and i got a negative number so, i think that's not good. whatever, it's booshit anyway. he told us a joke in class today that i will now share. what do you get when you cross an epileptic with romaine lettuce? ( punchline ) hahahaha. peace |

Technically, 3. A pair of chucks($14, from payless) that I wear pretty much all the time(they're falling apart), a pair of flats that cost $8 and a pair of high heels($18) for occasions. Materialism is not my thing. I guess I could understand if someone had a seemingly uncontrollable compulsion to buy things, i.e. shoes; but reckless spending, if for no other reason than "looking good" is pointless. No one cares what you look like. I've tried to explain this to many-a-friend. When you go to class do you sit down and examine everyone around you and notice if they wear the same thing twice? No, you don't. No one does that. And of course it's easy to think people are noticing you, but they're really not. Just like you're not noticing them. I always wear the same thing, because college is a pain in the ass and so is laundry. To the self proclaimed "shop-a-holics" out there: Stop spending money on things you don't need, go to your church and ask to sponsor a kid in south america for $30 dollars a month. They get medical care, better education, better home life and the knowledge that someone out there really does care if they eat that night or if they have a proper bed to sleep in. Plus, they write you letters and they are the sweetest things ever. I'd take the warm feeling you get inside from helping someone in need over a pair of manolo blahniks anyday. |

| No. I'm sure that's only because I try to be forgiving. Like Jesus. With me, everyone gets second chances and the benefit of the doubt. I get taken advantage of a bit, if I'm not careful, but even the people who have done me wrong still deserve my help if they need it. For a while I thought that it was pointless to be that way, because it seemed like I wasn't getting anything out of it, but I soon realized that getting something good for yourself through any means isn't really the point. That's not supposed to be your incentive. Once you learn that for yourself, you start to see that you do have wonderful things in your life, because you make them wonderful. What makes me sad is that some people never learn these things. So it goes. | |||

The second installment of 'Playful Penguins!' has been officially named 'Rogue Unicorns!'. I figured I'd follow the adjective + animal pattern and give a Flight of the Conchords tribute at the same time. Still narrowing down the tracklist but some of the artists include: Rainer Maria, The Breeders, Oasis, Silversun Pickups, The Long Winters, Modest Mouse(would have been a perfect album title), The Mars Volta, the Beatles, The Who and Enon. Oh, and Rogue Wave... =P. As soon as I decide on a final tracklist and order them correctly, they will be burned and distributed to all of you, who don't actually read this. |

| Yes, actually. This is one adolencent human experience that I actually was a part of. The whole thing is a bit fuzzy, but it involved wearing all black(as to insure maximum sneakage) breaking a few laws and climbing a twelve foot fence. I believe we wrote our names in whiteout on a desk in the office of the place we snuck into, which was a public pool but I doubt I'll ever go back there. That was just one of the many very scary but ultimately greatest experiences I had with this guy who for some reason unknown to the rest of us, has ball-and-chained himself to a girl everyone hates and decided he didn't want to be himself anymore. I do miss hanging out with him, but mostly I just feel sorry for him. A guy who was once considered cool enough to break into a public pool in the middle of the night and take a fourty five minute ride home in the back of a pickup truck in the pouring rain is now painfully devoid of all characteristics I would consider attractive. | |||

On the brighter side of things Caitlin is doing a gigantic painting of me and it looks awesome. Cathy is driving(not so often) but it takes the pressure off of me a bit, which is nice. Dil is on her way home from florida. need i say more? Yes. As long as Dil is home, everything is alright. Melissa will be home soon. I got my headshots done Thursday night. for free! It's beautiful out but my mom is power washing the fence so it's too loud to go outside if you're within a 2 block radius of our backyard. So i nixed reading under my tree. Power washer also creates a serious splash back effect, not enjoyable. I guess ill go back to bed until work at 6, which ironically coincides with the bbq my family just decided to have tonight, how nice. |

i wish i could remember the very moment i gave up all control because it's proving difficult to win myself over with promises of better things to come. and to answer your outstanding question: yes, i have. and it would be best if that were your last, but the dynamic shifted so quickly i'm having trouble gathering myself up and holding my breath with anticipation to see if i will be standing when the smoke finally clears. and if this time, you'll not be here. |

You know what's lame? People not seeing you for who you are. People who don't hear the messages you have to bring them either because they're too into themselves to hear anyone else or because they just don't believe you have anything substantial to teach them. It won't be like that forever, though. I mean, if it is then...there is no point. And how boring it is to think that Life has no point. Atheism is the highest form of arrogance I can imagine. Everything is so intricately connected and complex. There's no way anyone will ever scientifically prove existence. I read something yesterday about finding your Life's purpose and how most people fail because they start at the wrong place: themselves. To find your life's purpose you have to start with the one who made you, with God. In the book they gave the example of an new invention that no one had ever seen. You don't know how to use this invention and it certainly can't tell you how to use it so you have to turn to the inventor or the users manual. Users manual, you say? Yes. We have one. And it tells us why we are here, how we should go about living our lives, what to look out for and stay away from and what will come after it's all done. But now people are just becoming so selfish that they can't possibly conform to such a following. Let me tell you something, following Christ and conforming to the laws of God is not weak. It is not a way to let your troubles go by chalking it up to fate. Because only after you've gotten past the selfish wants of the human endeavor, only after you've learned right from wrong, righteousness from wickedness can you let go of your precious "pride" and your mortal handicaps and realize that Life is not about you. Even your own Life has nothing to do with you. It is for God and of God. It is what God needs to happen. You're here for his purpose. Only after you let go of your inevitable inability to really control anything, can you be comfortable and ready to accept the Lord, Jesus Christ and conform as best you know how. |

The last three lines are brilliant. We also read "the Waste Land" by T.S. Elliot and she had us take a dozen or so lines from the nearly 14 page poem and arrange them as we saw fit. So this was mine... |

Today, I replaced one of the insufferable, tri-weekly, hour and fifteen minute sessions of solving for x with sitting under my favourite grove of cherry blossoms on the small hill behind the library, with Yeats. It was nice. At one point, a squirrel ran across the branches above me and I clicked my tongue and he stopped fast and turned and stared right at me. We both sat for a minute and I clicked a few times more, lower, and he jumped four branches closer but when I reached in my bag for a honey wheat pretzle for him, he ran back up, found a crossing of strong branches and layed down to sleep. Which is when I turned, unknowingly, to: |

There's something I can't quite shake. I don't know if it's a feeling or a vibe but it still hasn't gone away. The last time we spoke, your girlfriend was in earshot and you regarded me as "mah nigga". That was lame. |
