                <description><![CDATA[ Solar plexus<br />
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.<br />
<br />
The solar plexus, also known as the celiac plexus, plexus cliacus or plexus solaris, is an autonomous cluster of nerve cells (see Plexus) in the human body behind the stomach and below the diaphragm near the celiac artery in the abdominal cavity. The solar plexus consists of two ganglia, called celiac ganglia, and a nerve network connecting the two ganglia. The solar plexus controls functions of the internal organs as for example adrenal secretion and the contraction in the intestines.<br />
<br />
A blow to the stomach, halfway between the navel and the heart may also put pressure on this nerve cluster, creating great pain. The blow can cause a temporary paralysis of the diaphragm, resulting in difficulty in breathing - a sensation commonly known as having the "wind knocked out" of you.<br />
<br />
Other similar nerve centres are the cardiac plexus near the heart, or the hypogastric plexus in front of the last lumbar vertebra.<br />
<br />
<i>The solar plexus is also considered an energy node according to Hinduism, called the manipura chakra</i><br />

<br />
Jefferson Airplane was an American rock band from San Francisco, a pioneer of the LSD-influenced psychedelic rock movement. Various successor incarnations of the band have performed under different names, reflecting changing times and performer lineups, known as Jefferson Starship, and later simply Starship.<br />
<br />
Jefferson Airplane was inducted in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1996.<br />
<br />
The term Jefferson airplane is also slang for a used match bent to hold a marijuana cigarette that has been smoked too short to hold without burning the hands. An urban legend claims this was the origin for the band's name, though according to band member Jorma Kaukonen the name was invented by his friend Steve Talbot as a satire of blues names such as "Blind Lemon" Jefferson [1].<br />
<br />
In the Summer of 2005 Jefferson Starship will be performing at Retrofest in Chilliwack, British Columbia, with Rick Derringer, Blue Öyster Cult, Edgar Winter, and It's A Beautiful Day.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Janis Joplin<br />
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.<br />
 <br />
Janis Joplin on the cover of her posthumously released live album In ConcertJanis Lyn Joplin (January 19, 1943  October 4, 1970) was an American blues-influenced rock singer and occasional songwriter with a distinctive voice. Joplin released four albums as the frontwoman for several bands from 1967 to a posthumous release in 1971.<br />
<br />
Joplin was born at St. Mary's Hospital in Port Arthur, Texas. She grew up listening to blues musicians such as Bessie Smith and Big Mama Thornton and singing in the local choir. Joplin graduated from Jefferson High School in Port Arthur in 1960 and went to college at the University of Texas in Austin, though she never completed a degree. There, she began singing blues and folk music with friends.<br />
<br />
Cultivating a rebellious manner that could be viewed as "liberated" - the women's liberation movement was still in its infancy at this time - Joplin styled herself in part after her female blues heroines, and in part after the beat poets. She left Texas for San Francisco in 1963, lived in North Beach and in Haight-Ashbury. For a while she worked occasionally as a folk singer. Around this time her drug use began to increase, and she acquired a reputation as a "speed freak" and occasional heroin user. She also used other intoxicants. She was a heavy drinker throughout her career, and her trademark beverage was Southern Comfort.<br />
<br />
After a return to Port Arthur to recuperate, she again moved to San Francisco in 1966, where her bluesy vocal style saw her join Big Brother and The Holding Company, a band that was gaining some renown among the nascent hippie community in Haight-Ashbury. The band signed a deal with independent Mainstream Records and recorded an eponymously titled album in 1967. However, the lack of success of their early singles led to the album being withheld until after their subsequent success.<br />
<br />
The band's big break came with their performance at the Monterey Pop Festival, which included a version of Big Mama Thornton's "Ball and Chain" and featured a barnstorming vocal by Joplin. (The D.A. Pennebaker documentary Monterey Pop captured Cass Elliot in the crowd silently mouthing "Wow, that's really heavy" during Joplin's performance.) Their 1968 album Cheap Thrills featured more raw emotional performances and together with the Monterey performance, it made Joplin into one of the leading musical stars of the late Sixties.<br />
<br />
 <br />
Janis Joplin singing, from the cover of the posthumous album Super HitsAfter splitting from Big Brother, she formed a new backup group, modelled on the classic soul revue bands, named the Kozmic Blues Band, which backed her on I Got Dem Ol' Kozmic Blues Again Mama! 1969 (year she played at Woodstock). That group was indifferently received and soon broke up, and Joplin then formed what is arguably her best backing group, The Full Tilt Boogie Band. The result was the (posthumously released) Pearl (1971). It became the biggest selling album of her short career and featured her biggest hit single, the definitive cover version of Kris Kristofferson's "Me and Bobby McGee", as well as the wry social commentary of the a capella "Mercedes-Benz", written by beat poet Michael McClure.<br />
<br />
Her last public appearance was on The Dick Cavett Show in 1970, where she announced that she would attend her 10-year high school reunion, although she admitted that when in high school she had been "laughed out of class, out of school, out of town, out of the state". She made it there, but it would be one of the last decisions of her life and it reportedly proved to be a rather unhappy experience for her.<br />
<br />
Shortly thereafter, during the recording sessions for the Pearl album with Doors producer Paul A. Rothchild, Joplin died of an overdose of unusually pure heroin on October 4, 1970 in a Los Angeles, California motel room, aged only 27.<br />
<br />
She was cremated in the Westwood Village Memorial Park Cemetery in Westwood, California, and her ashes were scattered into the Pacific Ocean. The album Pearl, released six weeks after her death, included a version of Nick Gravenites' song "Buried Alive In The Blues", which was left as an instrumental because Joplin had died before she was able to record her vocal over the backing track.<br />
<br />
i miss janis joplin.<br />
<br />
maybe i'll make a shirt that says that and wear it on October 4th.<br />
i actually get sad when i think that i wasn't able to share the planet with her.<br />
at least not in this life.<br />
i miss you janis.<br />
<br />
you are beautiful.<br />
i love you.<br />
and remember, you will make beautiful things.<br />

<br />
<b>haight ashbury</b><br />
<br />
The Haight-Ashbury is a district of San Francisco, California, named after the intersection of Haight Street and Ashbury Street, commonly known as The Haight or, in recent years, The Upper Haight. The district is famous for its role as an epicenter of the 1960s hippie movement, a post-runner and closley associated offshoot of the beat generation who swarmed San Francisco's "in" Northbeach neighborhood 2-8 years before the "summer of love".<br />
<br />
The Haight-Ashbury district was one of the fortunate areas spared in the disastrous fires that followed the catastrophic San Francisco Earthquake of 1906. Known for its tracts of elaborately detailed 19th-century multi-story wooden houses, it became a haven for hippies during the 1960s due to the high availability of cheap Victorian properties for rent in the district and the bohemian subculture that briefly flourished there.<br />
<br />
It gained a reputation as a center of illegal drug culture, and especially with the use of marijuana, and the area was thus sometimes known as The Hashbury, but ca. 1967 its fame chiefly rested on the fact that it became the neighborhood of choice for a number of important psychedelic rock performers and groups of the mid-1960s. Acts like the Jefferson Airplane, The Grateful Dead and Janis Joplin, who all lived a short distance from the famous intersection not only imortalized the scene in song, but knew many within the community as friends and family. Its mystique was further enhanced by the 1967 Scott MacKenzie hit "San Francisco" a blatantly commercial pop song that climbed the charts much to locals' chagrin.<br />
<br />
Today the district has lost little of its status as a center of such alternative lifestyles, though much has changed. The area still maintains alot of it's bohemian atmosphere, it has become a major tourist attraction and has suffered the effects of gentrification to some extent. Perhaps the best illustration of the district's unwanted slide into the mainstream is the presence of a Gap store, a major international retailer that (happily) started in San Fransisco in the late 60's, now fell to mixed reviews by the city's trendy inhabitants. Though the Gap and Ben & Jerry's icecream are now located at the famous Haight-Ashbury intersection, the neighborhood remains, however, a thriving center of independent local business (keep in mind that nothing that loved or "authentic" ever inhabited the commercial space at the four points of the intersection from the start)! It is home to a number of independent restaraunts and bars, as well as clothing, smoke, and record shops, including Amoeba Music: San Francisco's largest new and used record store.<br />
<br />
As it is located between Buena Vista Park and Golden Gate Park, the district draws the homeless, and teen runaways to some extent, the main commercial area's blend of diverse sreet life engulfs them in the carnavelesque and liberal surroundings well, however. Recent police and community efforts help mantain park curfews and "no camping policies" as well.<br />
<br />
Both commercial and residential property in the district are in high demand today, a testament to the area's long history and many charms.<br />
<br />
<br />
i wish i lived there then. that would have been the collest thign under the sun.<br />
<br />
wow. i suggest you al go to wikipedia rright now and research something you've been wondering about. i love encyclopedias.<br />

"well, that's bits of bricks on sticks"<br />
<br />
"more like bric-a-brac on stack"<br />
<br />
"BRICK A BREAK ON STEAK"<br />
<br />
"we're l.s.d.k.f.c., yo"<br />
<br />
"a cactus ate my parents"<br />
<br />
"i'm feelin' shivvy-shavvy, where's all the towels?"<br />
<br />
it was really fun. i love you leah. <br />
<br />
we did it at svetlana's grandmother's house. sven's boyfriend ( who is nice and named jeff ) did shrooms, for his first time trip. it wasn't until after he had taken his shrooms that i found out that he had only gotten his lip pierced the <i>day before!</i> were i to have known that before i went to pick up the drugs, i would have recommended that he just get really stoned. as it would eleviate the pain of a new piercing a little. i hope he is okay now. poor boy, not a good tiem to do your first hallucinogen.<br />
<br />
oh dear.<br />
<br />
the night went pretty well though, leah and i were out on the balcony for almost the whole time, and we were watchign these two streetlihts that would turn on and off at different times. it was actually really interesting. they would turn on and e blue, then one of them woudl turn orange, and shut off. leah and i had lots of fun. it was great. so many tea biscuits. ( cheers, leah ^^ ) i erally like spending tiem with sven, i need to hang out with her more often.<br />
<br />
i'm done babysitting rosie, and i made 80 dollars. i'm going to buy some canvases, and go to many vintage shops in montreal.  it will be delightful. <br />
<br />
i watched a really good movie last night it was called "the ballad of jack and rose" it was amazing. it's an IFC (indepentdent film corporation, i beleive ) film, about this man and his daughteer who live on this old hippie commune ( which is built into a <i>hill</i>! ) the father, whose name is jack, has a heart disease, and feels that he needs to find someone to take care of the commune with his daughter when he dies. so he asks this woman who he has been sleeping with, and she brings herself and her two sons to live in the commune, and things go all icky. i won't tell the ending because i recommend you watch it, it's worth renting. but it's filmed in p.e.i. and the cinematography is pretty good. <br />
<br />
i made vegan cookies today, they are delicious. i found the recipe at this amazing vegetarian and vegan website --> <a href="http://www.vegweb.com">[link]</a>. it is full of yummy thing that are good to animals, and good for you.<br />

<br />
charlotte-thanks for giving the keys to my folks. ti woudl be a real bummer if i didn't have them. thanks again love.<br />
<br />
anyways, the time between my last journal and this one has been full of many things. substances, giggles, forests, goodbyes, and more are to come. if i had to sum up the space between my last journal and this one i would label it "discovery" i've been learning alot about myself and abotu the people i love in the past while. not in crazy spill-your-gut sessions, but just by being around them. i think it's been good for me.<br />
<br />
i'm still eating healthy, and getting exercise, and brushing my teeth at least twice a day, thank you very much.<br />
<br />
leba is in toronto, charlotte is going to be in toronto, natasha is/is already in toronto, and where am i going?? leba's house, i'm taking care of her sister for a week while charlotte is in toronto. and sarah is going to wakestock, ><. i would really like to go to wakestock. oh well. at least i'm making some form of spendable while they're all gone. and leba has the longboard. i hope you use it all the time leba! <3. i have got to get myself a longboard...they are actually soo much fun. it's truly eye opening. i love them...^^. <br />
<br />
i really need to see gnat. i still haven't given her her <i>birthday</i> present, i haven't seen her since her party!! i have a severe gnat deprivation illness. and it pains me. oh dear.<br />
<br />
i'm going to purchase some spraypaint in various pastels and brown of course. then i can let some of my drawings out into the real world through the defacement of public property! but nothing offensive or ugly. absolutely not.<br />
<br />
you've all already heard abotu our "you are beautiful" rampage...it's an epidemic you know, and the first illness that is addictive, more so than crack.<br />
<br />
i hope you all fill up the last of your summer with the best!<br />
have a great day<br />
you are beautiful<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ <b>for your everyday life</b><br />
<br />
i'm still eating very healthily. i feel good.<br />
<br />
it just struck me that i didn't tell the world about lillians good advice yesterday. she was on e (as said in "inked"), and decided that she should give everybody a good piece of advice. she was really good at it too. <br />
<br />
i'm so proud of her.<br />
<br />
she said stuff like:<br />
<br />
"if you want to know where you are going, check a map."<br />
<br />
"if you have to go to the bathroom, there are some over there." ( we were at majors, and she pointed in the direction of the waterfront, because there are actually bathrooms there. )<br />
<br />
"if you want information, go to the library"<br />
<br />
and many more things.<br />
<br />
<br />
then she blessed erica and chelsea. this whole process of blessing led to one of my favourite quotes of the day.<br />
<br />
"but i've been blessing you for like half an hour!"<br />
                                                                      -lillian<br />
<br />
i figured no one should not know about this, as i found it both musing and interesting, and it brightened my day. i need to find a little black sketchbook. they have some nice ones at loomis and toles.<br />
<br />
and there is one very good climbing tree at majors. oh princess buttercup. how i love you.<br />
<br />
have a wonderful day.<br />
dream.<br />
you are beautiful.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ <b>completely incomplete?<br />
i think i prefer it that way.</b><br />
<br />
yep.<br />
<br />
<br />
today, on the bus, an old fellow asked me if the kids today still liked janis joplin. <br />
<br />
i said yes, for sure.<br />
<br />
and then he started humming good old janis to himself. i think it made my busride home very special.<br />
<br />
i've started drafts for my zeppelin adventurer series. it has great potential. and it makes me happy knowing this.<br />
<br />
<u>what i did today:</u><br />
<br />
-ate really healthy food. grapefruits, granola, soymilk, spinach salad, orange, strawberries, whole grain bread. and i loved all of it. eating healthy makes me feel accomplished. and i think it must oddly make up for all the bullshit i put my body through.<br />
<br />
-ran into lillian and erica (lillian's friend) at rideau, they were on e, and we met up with kelly and chelsea and went to majors.<br />
<br />
-roopa and alex w. came by and they <b>ate</b> some shrooms. (icky, i prefer tea to a much greater degree)<br />
<br />
-climbed a tree with lillian (she's my bud) it's kind of a tradition of ours to climb a tree when we see eachother. the tree we climbed at majors was so great, we named it princess buttercup. (oh, princess bride)<br />
<br />
<br />
-i went home and ate sweet potatoe salad with whole wheat pasta. (yum.)<br />
<br />
-wrote "inked" on d.a., and contemplated where to get a job.<br />
<br />
i need to have more days like today, with my good friends. it makes me happy. being around good people is healthy. lots of fiber and vitamins. yeah. good vibrations<br />
<br />
i need to write things down more often. if i don't i'll lose my childhood. i've got to keep it close at all times.<br />
<br />
lets adventure.<br />
it'll be super.<br />
we'll have to climb a tree...<br />
and pack a picnic.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ <b>you are the pilot.</b><br />
<br />
<br />
i just did an online quiz.<br />
like two hours ago.<br />
the "the little prince" quiz.<br />
i want to buy the french and english copy of that book. to chapters i must walk.<br />
and it told me that i was the pilot. i'm comfortable with that. i think it's good and accurate.<br />
if i were to be any sort of pilot what so ever, i would be the pilot of an airship, and fly over the ocean and try to find deserted islands, and put up a treehouse in each one, fully equipped with everything you need<br />
-hammock<br />
-toothbrush<br />
-floorboards<br />
-antiseptic<br />
-good books<br />
-longboard ( oh dear )<br />
-mary, lucy, continue the menagerie...<br />
-et cetera et cetera et cetera.<br />
<br />
and my friends and i would have marvellous adventures in our little zeppelin, and we would skydive, and try to touch the stars ( they're not that far away you know. )<br />
<br />
and make patchwork parachutes.<br />
<br />
and fly kites.<br />
<br />
oh so much fun. peter pan knew what he was doing when he decided "first star to the right, straight on 'till morning". what a smart boy.<br />
<br />
and we would live forever as the illustrations in childrens books.<br />
<br />
my mother washed my jeans today. they no longer smell like my summer so far. (an eclectic mix of dope, fun and dirt.) but they do smell like "orchard breeze" which is a good smell. but i think i preffered "stuarts summer 2005". oh well. i'll live, smell changing pants never hurt anyone in recorded history.<br />
i think i have to go see the orthodontist soon. this is where i'm going to put my foot down and tell him to take the metal pieces of satan out of my mouth and fit me for a retainer. i won't take no as an answer. unless he is positive that my teeth will go back to being all british and shitty ( screw my father's bad orthodental genes ) then i will have to take no for an answer. but iwon't do it happily. no siree.<br />
<br />
i feel like going out and getting a smoothie. something that will make me happy having it's taste on my tongue. perhaps i'll take a little feildtrip to billings. perhaps.<br />
<br />
i was reading my science notes from 274629387 years ago, and i turned to my geology unit from grade five, and i drew faces on all of the rock diagrams that i copied, and they're all saying " if i only had a brain", i was such a creatively suppressed child at my school. oh well. canterbury cures that and many other things. like...well...lots of stuff.<br />
maybe i'll start illustratin a storybook about a grouop of kids and a zeppelin. that sound interesting. it would be a good summer project. <br />
<br />
maybe a series of deviations coming up finally??<br />
<br />
i certainly hope so.<br />
<br />
i was reading the newspaper today, adn they had two ladies from that tatoo parlour on dalhousie, they work there. i don't know if they're artists there or not. "living colour" i think is the name, i'll have to check. they were both showing off their oh-so-beautiful sleeves, my mother saw the picture and our conversation went like this:<br />
"are those real?"<br />
"yes..i love th-"<br />
"they're really ugly"<br />
"no they're not, i love them."<br />
"who would want bad art up their entire arm"<br />
"it's not bad, i'm sure they at least helped in the designing process"<br />
"i really hate tatoos"<br />
"but you have four!"<br />
"i didn't tell you? i'm getting then removed, i'm asking dad to get his removed too"<br />
"that's dumb"<br />
"that's <i>hygenic</i> stuart, you know nothing about the tatoo process."<br />
"i'm not dumb, i know wha-"<br />
"no you don't"<br />
-this is where i exited before i started yelling, i've made a new resolution to never yell angrily at anyone, becuase it gives them reason to yell angrily back. i'm still getting my tatoos, i'm going to talk to my cousin to see if she'll sign for them, she's 22. maybe that'll work. she moved out of myt house becuse she couldn't take my mother's menopause (which, oddly enough has been lasting like 6 or 7 months...that is not normal.)<br />
<br />
i like the fact that my mom and dad both have four or more tatoos. they would always show them to me, i remember when i was three my mom took me to the parlour with her to pick out one with her. it's a dove, and it's on her back for three more weeks. i wonder if she'll keep the one that my dad and her got matching ones of?<br />
<br />
whatever, i ramble. i ramble.<br />
keep your eyes out for deviations soon. sorry to keep you waiting. they'll be good when they come, i promise.<br />
let's fly airships<br />
<br />
<br />
and dive in yellow submarines.<br />
you are beautiful.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ <b>"father mackenzie,<br />
writing the words to a sermon <br />
that no one will hear"</b><br />
<br />
my great uncle is a priest (ick) in scotland(yay!), and my dad still makes fun of him because of this song. <br />
<br />
my dad needs new matierial.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
i have had the urge to do many creative things during the past couple days. things that i have never thought to do before. my imaginatioin is growing and it tickles.<br />
<br />
-i went into my backyard, adn sat on my hammock and blew bubbles, it is highly theraputic. i loved it.<br />
-i'm creating "mnu" stickers for future sticker vandalism. they say good stuff like " you are beautiful", "make love", and "hold hands." so what if i'm mshy? i'd rather be a softie than a cold hard bitch. <br />
<br />
i've had random songs by final fantasy stuck in my head, and i don't know the words, so i'm kinda filling in the blanks. it's interesting, but i need the real music so my brain dosen't explode from music-creating frustration.<br />
<br />
annie called me a couple nights ago, i haven't seen her since my birthday. it was so good to hear her voice. she's a good one. i love her terribly. but the conversation was short lived. oh well. it will just make seeing her agian more beautiful. ^^<br />
<br />
i had a weird dream a week ago or so, and ive had it twice since. all my dreams have been recurring since the whoel white hair fiasco. it's me standing at the edge of this forest or feild of what looks like really green bamboo, but theree are these yellow flowers that look like oversized lotuses on top. it's a very interesting dream. and i've been drawing those plant things everywhere. they're even on my "mnu" stickers. they're wonderful. and i like them alot. <br />
<br />
summer school is now officially over. i went in to get my mark today. and i passed with over 80%, so i'm happy. but i though i would do a smidgeon better, but oh well. i still passed, so i'm oky. good. : )<br />
<br />
now i can adventure all i want, and do crazy things and not have to worry about fucking summer school. what a releif. it feels so good. it has made me appreciate summer more, because i almost forgot what it was like during the 8 day period that i was stuck in that awful, hot classroom. ick. ick. ick.<br />
<br />
my mom bought this cd that she thought was plain, normal, best of the beatles for only 6 bucks. she thought wrong. it was best of the beatles done by 101 strings. oh dear. so she asked me if i wanted it, because i wnated to start violin, so i said yes, and listened to it in my room. most of it sounds like elevator music, which is okay if you're in the mood, but "elanor rigby" and "yellow submarine" are decent. the strings in "elanor rigby" are fantastic. it wakes me up in the morning.<br />
<br />
there are so many things i want to do before sarah leaves.<br />
-longboard down hills with pillows ductaped to our <i>everywhere</i>, wearing helmets and goggles for safety of course.<br />
-followed by insane pillow sumo wrestling.<br />
-get lost.<br />
-go to the place where they had the hookah party last year. maybe i've been there, i don't know.<br />
-2ci again, and laugh for an entire night, again.<br />
-many other things that my growing imagination will provide.<br />
<br />
summer school is over.<br />
war should be over.<br />
you are beautiful.<br />
love. love. love you guys.<br />
<br />
<br />
would i then be stuhairrt? ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ park that car<br />
drop that phone<br />
sleep on the floor<br />
dream about me<br />
<br />
<br />
wow. it's been a long time since ive submitted anything resembling a journal on d.a. not to mention a deviation. but i haven't been proud enough of anything to actually submit it yet. i'm waiting for the perfect time. the perfect time to open the internet world to my art. i love art so much. it saved my life. along with rock n' roll and such.<br />
<br />
i start summer school tomorrow. i really hope it goes by fast, i have absolutely no desire to be inside in a flourescent-lit room full of desks and students, and careers, when there are adventures to be had. careers is the dumbest course in existence, i don't need anyone to tell me what i need to do to "suceed" i'm going to be an artist-illustrator-astronaut-astronomer-adventurer-yogi-historian-mythologist-egyptologist-poet-dream interpreter-painter. and i don't need any tests to tell me that. the thought depresses me. i guess i just have to buckle down and be productive. it's gonna stink. i don't like school one bit. we live 80 years, why do we have to smoosh school into 20? i don't get it. <br />
<br />
so after the first day of school ( ick ) i'm gonna visit sarah and leba and bryce and cry and cry. and tell them how much i hated it. though it would be better is my calss is full of cool, interesting people. but i'm too used to canterbury, so it will probably stink. i'm not being a pessimist, i'm being a realist.<br />
<br />
but it's only 3 hours a day, and only for two weeks. good.<br />
<br />
i'm putting my resume in at the second cup that charlotte works at, at least if i get the job, i'll be with my secret sister. that would be superlative. <br />
<br />
i've been devising plans for a mass adventure, with everyone. we all need to just go on an adventure in ottawa, and go places we've never been before, adn get lost, and have fun finding our way back to civilisation. i think that is a good idea.<br />
<br />
i have such a desire to just adventure, to just finally get out of my house, and make my own way through the cosmos. i hate the way my parents raised me. they always treated me like i was dumb. i don't think a parent should be a parent. but a friend. it sounds really teen angst, but i really think it would wrk better, a realtionship based on friendship and taking care of <i> eachother</i> not just mommy telling you what to do and when and how to do it.<br />
<br />
i need independance to function. otherwise it just dosen't work.<br />
<br />
i went to the bluesfest webpage to find out when gentleman reg, stars, and broken social scene are playing. it's july 9th ( saturday) and it's $25 for the day...i think. it dosen't give individual show listings. i'm all for just hanging outside major's on a blanket and smoking bong, because it'll be free. but i want to see the bands actually play too. : (. i dunno. i'll have money i think. so it really dosen't matter.<br />
<br />
i want to be free and run aroung and scream and dance and puddle splash. i need a really warm comfy sweater. charlotte has mine i think. *growls* but it dosen't matter.<br />
<br />
i can't wait to get a job (again), it would be so good. when you think about it, getting a job it what starts off your independance.<br />
<br />
to do:<br />
<br />
a) get job<br />
b) get many room mates<br />
c) finish school<br />
d) live a life full of art and love and fungus.<br />
<br />
who's with me...?<br />
<br />
