| Deer. |
[Sep. 2nd, 2008|01:11 am] |
Deer because they live between our world and everything else.
And because they're the only animal that has an ounce of the grace that a unicorn has. Or so says the last unicorn. |

I've spent a lot of this summer working and looking forward to certain events that seem like they'll give me a break or perspective on the summer and work i've been doing. They come, then go, and are usually too short, a sip of water when I really want to chug the whole bottle. It's okay, but I can't help but feel a little stir crazy, it's seeping through the cracks of my room and shakes the air, agitating all who are attune to the vibrations.
Frank told me that even the street lights sound bored with their buzzings. Their steady hum (mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm) reflects the stagnant nature of the insanity, left sweltering in the heat. We might just explode.
Not really.
People are coming and going, the dynamic changes each week. It's kind of lonely here, but good to be home, wonderful to have a loving family, and I'm happy that I'm not dead. Still, I feel consistent yet restless, and I would like to stop feeling like I'm waiting and instead be happy that I'm doing.
I am getting more and more into the idea of painting dead animals. Dead deer, roadkill, in headlights, covering the walls. Piles of deer on the side of a road as a car drives past. Massacres, due to accidents. Deer smashed through the window of the William Sonoma uptown, as the display window behind cheerily blurbs out "Now that I found love, what else do I need?" It's a start, thoughts about nature and being outside of your element. Nature outside of its element, Alienation. After that we'll see where it goes.
Anyways.
I'm taking next year off and I think it's a good decision. come September I'll be moving to Brooklyn, then in January I'm off to Hawaii. These are two of the events that I'm looking forward too, and I think it'll be good to be living free from school and family and pretty much all other familiar ties, as comforting and wonderful as they are. Maybe it'll make it more refreshing, more exciting to go back to school a year from now. Maybe not. Either way, I think it's a good way to spend my time, and hopefully it'll help remedy my belief that my aspirations in life are petty ( i just want to illustrate children's books) and I don't actually have to be someone that helps save the world from horrible destruction and imminent disaster and horror due to overpopulation and constant pollution. Actually, I only feel that way when I'm in a shitty mood, which I'm not right now. And that's not really the point or what I feel like talking or thinking about. Life really is very amazing and interesting, And basically what I'm trying to say is that I'm really excited to be doing and living and with such opportunities. I have no idea really what to expect in the next year, but I'm excited to see what happens. |

over enthusiastic interviewer apparently he thinks id be a great field manager.... I think he probably says that to everyone seeing as they seem to need a lot of people.
This could work out. And then I could go work at the Opera house in Seattle. I like this. |

soooo....
I'm sorry i've disappeared on a lot of people. I've been having some trouble.
The semester is over and I'm coming home this week
My phone is broken.... I can receive calls but I cant talk. People can hear me when I answer it but I cant hear them.
I'm probably going to see a therapist this summer
My parents think I'm depressed (and have been throughout the school year?). I think I might agree.
I went to Long Island with Revel yesterday in his monster truck. We got pulled over by a cop because his taillights had gone out. His car is ridiculous, and fun to drive, in a scary way. But road trips are nice.
I miss a lot of people and Im sorry if Ive been neglectful. I'll try to be better. Ill be back home soon. |

last night
I randomly decided to see my friend from CTY
Who I haven't seen since the camp, 5 years ago.
I left at 8 last night, got there to Bumblefuck NJ at 9, hung out til 5, slept til 6 30, then drove back and got back at 8 30. Stopped at eagle rock and watched the sun rising a little over the silhouette city, the storm clouds arent over the ocean so the light from behind the city was a pale yellow. it was beautiful.
back to school today. Lame. I've had fun. |

last night I had a dream in which I was persecuted Invisible Man style. I kept trying to do the "right" things and kept on getting fucked for it. In my dream I sat there and watched my hair cut itself short. It looked cute. I ran away from someone (and his organization, whatever that was) who was yelling at me for failing, failing at something they had forced me to do, that I hadn't wanted to. Ran away, flew a bit and jumped into the water and became a mermaid. Green scales reflect the sunlight. Suddenly it was a parallel to the Little Mermaid, and yet, it had nothing to do with it at all. Beating up dangerous fish, in hiding from that man, those people. Good thing I had fins.
I'm forgetting more of it as we speak.
Fucking weird man. |

I really need to start going to bed before my angst takes over and I go crazy.
Retarculous. This weekend I got to look at the Millbrook boarding school zoo and went into the lemur cage. They licked my fingers and i got to pet them. They're beautiful. I almost got to go into the deer cage but we didnt have time. Ellie and Lily are sweet. I also got to see Moira and Annie and they invited me and other people up whenever. And Moria invited me to paint in her studio. Mmmmmmm studio in brooklyn? Mmmmm.
I get flustered too easily and I overanalyze everything. |

"I know, I know. and you know -- sometimes it is okay to let life wash through one like a bass line. sometimes it is okay to be very small like the tiniest piece of a particle so that when hardness comes it can sift around one like so much dust -- one can keep spinning then. "
It's pretty. I miss my sister. She had her art opening last week. I'm proud of her. I cant wait for her to send pictures of her work. Still having touble sleeping. meh. |
