  • No Stranger

    Six sided dice and a pack of cards
    Arsenals of wordage and plenty of scars
    Patched jeans and a phoenix tee
    and wishes and wishes made on dandelion seeds.
    Love in an earbud, love pounded into heads
    Who knows what brings a goddess to her knees
    Leaves mellow falling in the line of sight
    Sun of another age burning up kites
    Waiting for the inevitable fall
    Delusional; listen to the foxes for one last call
    Wishes on stars fade with the wishes on dawn's light
    Better to have loved and lost, than have never loved at all.

    Meh. I would like to fix my itunes somehow, I need more music....

  • "Add New Weblog Entry"

    About what?

    I see you have scraped off your nail polish
    I too have scraped off my nail polish

    I miss the mornings where Anne and I would sing Beatles

    French is such a mushy language. It makes you pucker your lips like you want a kiss.

    Dirty holy jeans.

    You make tuna salad the night before so you have a lunch the next morning and refrain from snacking on the last of the Eggo waffles so you have a breakfast as well. But the next day, there's nothing left. My family keeps me thin.

    Philosophy is birdshit on the statue of a horse and rider. The pigeons think the know it all and have a right, but they know nothing of cold copper in the middle of a traffic circle past witching hour. They only know their own warm feathers and what is beneath them. A copper statue knows only the elements and of bird philosophy. Which is shit.

    There is a big difference between knowing and realizing.

    Another time? There is no time after this, there's only time now.

    He's seeing a girl in Seattle.

    Ghetto tea: After scratching out the crap out from the bottom of a borrowed mug, fill it up with water from a school fountain and nuke it in a dirty microwave. Then dunk in the tea bag that you brought in your back pocket from home. Enjoy with stale, stolen chips ahoy cookies.

  • Hung Over

    6- Bandness
    3- Black belt test madness
    6- Chill at Lei-Lei's
    10:30- home.

    I am so tired. No blog please, such a headache.
  • Love those Bones

    They are real, they are fun, they are thoughtful, they are insane, they are legitimate. They know pain, they know about separation, sibling rivalry, drugs, alcohol, love, apathy, problems, crushes, sex, regret, writing letters and not sending them, frustration, stupidity, knowing which email to send, music, issues, family screw ups, the good love of an animal, depression, medication, life, suicide, paranoia, fear, loneliness, partying, chocolate chip pancakes, scary movies, anime, pop music, piano.

    These are the people that know how to live. We know we are complicated, but we do not dwell on it, we are not confusing. We know we are hiding and that we suffer from it, but we do not make our problems different from anyone else's. We are not the best students, we are not the most talented, we have never won, we don't always speak or act intelligently, and we do not always give %100. But we know how to take a break, how to laugh, and how to non-chalantly slap each other on the ass. Love those bones.

    I find I like to keep myself socially stratified, I like being comfortable in many groups of people, it's not hard for me. But I've spent forever still trying to find my exact niche, my person, if you will. There are few people who enjoy being socially stratified, they're hard to find, and are usually rather flakey :) . Unfortunately, I don't think I've ever considered my section as deep as should have. I suppose I took it for granted. This section that always made me laugh, I could always depend on for a smile, and that I really cared for. I never really thought about opening up to them in return. There were other's who I wanted to receive all of me, I don't know if it's an egotistical thing or not, but, I didn't feel my section could take it or understand or simply keep quiet. I like being in many circles, not for the popularity, but for the sake of knowing so many different people, I like people! I like helping, being involved... mostly, but I only really want to depend on one person in return, only one to know all of me, I don't want to spread myself out.
    After tonight of just riding and around and talking after the show. I don't know anyone as real as them. I still don't know how much I would open up to, but, I won't have to plan that, it's not always necessary. We can just have fun.

    They are smart, but that is not their life, they have felt pain, but they are not so outwardly steeped in it. They are very very real people. Mature people. We are teenagers, we do ride around with the music too loud, singing at the top of our lungs and the windows open, even though it was freaking cold, and I did surreptitiously edit the lewd things they drew into the frost of Matt's car. But we are not mean, and we are not bad.
    We are real like no one else, we cover all ends of the spectrum, and you're not going to be able to find anyone who has more fun :) . Enough fun to make me forget even.

    ...Last show tonight, and the coldest one I will ever remember at that. My toes were so cold that I thought I was breaking them back-stepping, but I wouldn't just because I wasn't able to FEEL them! Tulkoff was there! It's funny talking speaking to someone at a football game, the conversation went something like this at the end:
    Tulkoff: "...I should find of some those- NO! GO! GO! GOOO! YES!" Absolutely no hesitation from the slip of private conversation to extraordinarily loud yelling at the game. Hee hee.

    I will miss marching band and all it's pointless glory. One more competition tomorrow, then that's it.... no more study halls >.< But there will definitely be more Double T, Fatal Frame on the big screen, therapy in parking lots and just generally more bone-o-rama.

  • I also wish

    That I could draw... I suppose I'll go try that now.

    EDIT: Nov 6 12:16 am

    EVERYTHING I DRAW ENDS UP BEING REALLY DIFFERENT FROM WHAT I THINK OF! Last night, I had this vision of a sort of heron costume, then it turned into "Madam Scare Crow is not quite a zombie but close enough" and then there is "The Ledge" which consist of broken wings and a blindfold, and "M.M." The menstrual monster, which I believe is an accurate depiction of what it feels like sometimes (heavy rope around the limbs, twisted pokers in the abdomen, a broken back and bricks in the head anyone?), and my personal recent favorite "Damn Wind..." which isn't so odd, but fun.

    It's really quite interesting...

  • Unraveling in Elsewhere

    A snare in Elsewhere has occured my dear!
    I think that you may find it queer
    the things that change
    when Elsewhere's estranged
    And the pieces that are falling out of my ear
     
    Some frightful thread is giving a fight
    that will surely snap on someone tonight
    on friend or foe
    we'll never know
    until Elsewhere's sky shines white
     
    The funny apparition of
    this mental attrition
    you sly scissors that snap
    a snare into Elsewhere
     
    Your silly rendition
    of a sink to submission
    is not going to help you
    in Elsewhere
     
    My
    mental
    thread
    is
    in
    Else
    wheres
     
    Piano was therapeutic tonight; discussion, venting, and Claire de Lune. Of course, in terms of actualy piano, I fail *tear*. But, love sings in major thirds.
  • i

    have no beautiful words today... none that I can share anyway ;) But if I don't blog, then all is lost.

    Piano tonight, missed it last week because my brain was being wonky and my body was like *zoom ouch* . The guilt trip to therapy I should call it. I hate, hate, hate, hate that I cannot practice as much as I would like. And now with the cold coming in, my piano is out of tune and it makes me cringe.

    I am being a bad student and should be studying for a huge World War I test tomorrow and a math quiz. But I will most likely not be able to xanga when I get back.

    My piano teacher, she said once that she felt like all of her students came to her as types stones and it was her job to simply polish them. Years ago, she told me I was a diamond, that was the sort of potential I had. The musicality and intuition I contained, just not yet the technique and the self-discipline. She told me there was no other student like me, there were other gems, yes, but I was a diamond. She believed I could really go somewhere with my music. I've known her long enough to know she meant this statement. She believed in me then, she still believes in me now to succeed in whatever it is I decide to do, but the years passed and I know I am no diamond. It literally makes me cry to think what a dissapointment I may be to her sometimes. I've never been able to rise above the crowd in my competition cirlces, and it is my fault, I do not, DO NOT, practice well. I am not a good student in general. I don't know why, I don't know what's wrong with me. But I do love the music. I just wish... I wish I could have really made something out of it. Something for her, as well as for myself. God, a diamond... if anything, just having someone who continously told me they believe in me has been the greatest influence on my life. I've felt we've sort of become distant, especially when I started crashing sophomore year, but I'm trying to return back to the surface. Something that shows love and opens up again. I'm going to miss her.

  • Lux Aurumque

    My dream is to conduct this
    gold.
    Rise from the dark
    rise from the swell to a golden
    dawn
    the sweet oboe the delicate oboe
    this love
    and hold the air until it falls
    back back back
    into the chasm
    into the mountains
    let these caverns of the soul
    ring with
    the silver light of
    horns
    and hums with the strength
    of a beating heart
    This glorious green sound
    that breathes
    cool and dark
    I could open my mouth
    and swallow it like a liquid
    and sing
    all at the same time
    it could pour from my center
    I want to make it reverberate in you
    so that you stop thinking
    and only breathe and live
    of this golden light
    beating gentle
    the heart of a tawny beast
    that fades soft
    fades soft
    soft
    this perfection
    of air
    Breathe


  • Aging

    Dear Anon,
    Do you remember when you were little and you thought that teenagers were so cool? Maybe you were five at a family party or something and you wanted to hang out with all the older girls and you couldn't wait to be at that perfect age? That magic age where you were grown up and energetic and wild and talkative and intelligent and doing real things? Whatever "real" things are...

    And then you got there. I don't feel like the wise, chic, complete human being with something amazing accomplished that I imagined myself being so many years ago. Instead, I still feel everything day by day, and all the little things that I do. Somedays I wish I'll just grow up all of a sudden and become a "woman" and I'm just waiting for that moment and that opportunity (unfortunately, I may be fantasizing college too much, either way, getting away will do something for sure.)What is the rite of passage into "womanhood" anyway? Menstruation? Well, screw that :P. I wait for that day where I wake up and know what is about and what is within.
    But, I've come to realize that that is probably not what aging is about. We never become complete human beings, at least most likely not until we are much, much older (but I am a young'un, what do I know.) I feel that to become older and mature is not to really become wiser and perhaps more fulfilled, but more just learn how to deal with the disappointment and frustrations in life. I think for awhile, everything remains just as scary as it seems now, and as you get older, you just learn how to deal with it.

    We don't ever quite master anything, we just continue to learn.

    Love,
    S.C.

  • Denial

    Of work, what else. I don't know what has made this week so hard all of a sudden. I have decided that this balloon does indeed have a brain, excuse me.
    Let's run by my DADA poem

    What?
    r u
    looking
    4?
    In this
    pinkinkmess
    there's nothing here
    paperthin deep
    thesauri dinosaur
    o' words in pinkink
    and featherstuffs
    wat?
    do u
    expe
    ctoo
    find? Hm?
    It's paperthin deep!
    Une histoire d'amour, d'amitié?
    de colère?
    Non, c'est rien
    mais
    vous vous demandez
    "Français? Pourquoi?"
    C'est rien, c'est
    trois
    fois
    rien
    ...then again
    i am the girl
    who fell
    in lo
    ve with a
    rock.

    And I suppose I have to continue this letter writing.

    Dear Whoever the Hell you Are,
    I decided to change your name from "Me" to what you see there, just because it sounds a little egotistical otherwise. I am sure you won't mind though, seeing that you never really established who you were to begin with. Tomorrow, you will probably be an acronym.
    Much Love,
    Whatever
