Now, for those who care, an update on what I like to call life.

Camp has finally ended and sent me back to glorious Missoula, where my dorm room makes up in friends what it lacks in storage space.

I am at last in another poetry class, hopefully it will get the pen moving again, in an even more productive way.

Also being a sophomore I can finally take beginning photojournalism.
As great as this is, it’s also meaning I have to re-teach myself, and break all my old bad habits, that I had taught myself. Luckily I have a super good support system. (Insert goofy happy face here.)

Fencing is back in full force and I am now playing with the big kids, and damn are they beating me up. It’s fantastic! Three different beautiful blades all taking their turn in my hand.
The noobs are terrifyingly abundant.
I am all for the popularization of fencing but dear bananas what the hell sparked such an interest suddenly that our club is flood with twenty to thirty faces I’ve never seen before, all seemingly eager to join us. How I am I supposed to gear them all?

Life has mostly remain busy, only now it is more unorganized.

I have plenty of complaints about the new living space that I’m thinking will never feel like home. Starting with the sink being so far away, that I am far too inclined to just let my dishes mold.
I’m beginning to adjust to the massive lack of storage space, that isn’t large enough to accommodate my abundant amounts of crap. I figure I’ll get organized just in time to move out.

But in any case I am ridiculously happy. I love this place.

My real name seems foreign and I’m ready to go home.

I finally got a session I was really excited to do only to realize that in conflicted, at the end, with going home for a good friends wedding. That I already purchased the plane tickets for.

Boundary Waters I hope to canoe you another day. But I don’t know when that will be.

I never get enough sleep
I miss taking pictures
I’m sick of little kids
I want to talk at a normal volume
And I want to sleep and shower where the bugs aren’t
I miss fencing

I’m glad we’re getting this break, I think we all really need it.

I know I’m really burnt out.

Let’s hope things perk up quick.

Perhaps I just need more coffee.

I am living in a large un-happy looking cabin without electricity for the next four(ish) weeks. I have 3 other roommates and my pretty purple telephone can’t get any service.

I’m washing my laundry in the staff shower room next to the pool and I am lucky I have the internet in this very nice staff lounge.

The pretty golf cart keeps taunting me but I am still two years too young to drive it by Girl Scout policy.

The cotton just keeps falling.


Yes, I am at Girl Scout camp. Tomorrow we get campers.

I’m scared. But excited.

It’s crazy to be back at a Girl Scout camp after 7 years even though it isn’t even remotely like the camps I went to as a camper.

I’m tired but pleased, however feeling out of touch with everyone. I’m glad I still have the internet as communication with the outside world since snail mail is so slow.

I haven’t showered in 3 days. Don’t worry I plan to do it in the morning before the girls arrive. It means I have to get up earlier than I really need too, but I don’t want to take one now.

(I’m not sure how coherent this all is.)

It’s beautiful here I hope I will be able to get some good pictures to share!

SORRY!

Really I am. I hate it when one person clogs my inbox.

But I haven’t had time, I have time now, and probably won’t have it again until Christmas.

SORRY!

On the bright side, I’ve been getting a lot of practice!

Happy summers to all!

I think I am kind of starting to get the hang of it. Kind of. At least I now have a tripod so I can do long exposures. More practice is needed, and probably will be gotten.

I have some pictures I am considering putting up. Want to be sure I really like them first though. Sometimes the excitement from the initial download can be misleading.

So I have just added one that I really like. Go look! Go! (Bossy aren’t I?) I made it part of the photo challenge I started like a year ago… that I realize I am cheating a little on because I take the picture and then decide I think it fits one of the themes… heh. But I say I can do what I want.

In other news,

Life is good.

Ever changing. So MANY new experiences in such a short amount of time. Flying by.

Capes soon to come.

The Rules

1.) Create 100 photos, each photo having a theme listed below. Each photo should have ONE- and only ONE- theme to it, for it to count.
2.) No time limit, so have fun
3.) Photos should be of own artistic ability. You may not edit photos, or break any other rules set out in the DA etiquette policy.
4.) The list below is to be placed somewhere in your journal for others to see that…a.) You are in the challenge, and b.) what you have completed.
5.) Make sure to update this list and check off what is done, and link to the photo.

Not that I mind.

But I need to get some new work up.

Photos.

Not that I have written much poetry lately either.

I am in an artistic slump. (Debating if slump was the word I wanted.)

(Yes I am admitting to being a hypocrite. You’re one too, keep that in mind.)

As you may know I am not religious, but my family celebrates Christmas, so I’ll enjoy the commercialized aspect of it (and savor being a hypocrite).

I have new toys.

Tripod.

Canon PowerShot A590.

YAY!

I have severe case of the Klemme Shutter Bug. Oh yes I do.

I can’t focus. Fuck finals and my freaking pink portfolios, yes pink. I hate pink. Fucking color makes me want to vomit.

And all I want to focus on is poetry. I want to drown myself in the words, sounds and logics.

Instead I must focus my mind on more pressing matters that require coherent and structured by “normal” standards, thoughts.

I hate normal and coherent thoughts. They’re boring.

Let me drown in poetry, that’s how I want to fall.

When we do get something we want, we are satisfied for a moment, and then we want something else. We never seem to be grateful to have what we do have in our lives. It seems to be the curse of our species.

There has to be a purpose for it though. Perhaps it is what gives us the drive to keep living. Wanting something gives us something to work for, which would be why, once you get it, you have to start wanting something else.

But it is also quite annoying to so rarely have that super pleasant feeling of satisfaction. Instead you are filled with constant anxiety over whatever it is that you want! And sometimes, what you unintentionally narrowed in on isn’t even something you want to want, or could even get.

Maybe we unintentionally find ourselves wanting what we don’t want to want, or can’t have because there is a higher force in the universe trying to tell us something. Or maybe it is because it will keep us motivated to keep living longer, even though we know we can never have whatever it is, we let ourselves be filled with hope that maybe we are wrong.

I keep trying to believe that everything happens for a reason, and Fate is behind all the workings, good and bad. But I sometimes do not understand the motivation behind what Fate does. I am sure there is a reason for everything, but sometimes I would just like to know what that is? The reason that I can’t have some of the things I want, even if I know I’ll never be able to keep them for forever.

It’s amazing how much I can relate to her
My best friend

It’s perfect right now

I’m shaking
Unexplainably

I have much to do

Yet I procrastinate so.

Random poem.

My hearts pounding in my chest
I’m running out of breath

And I’m still
I’m not moving

Yet I’m shaking
And I’m thinking
Thinking
Imagining
Dreaming

My heart is in a race
For what?
I can only hope

Imagine

That you feel the same

I know you don’t

But why won’t my heart slow?
Slow down
Stop beating
So quickly
Threatening to leap from my chest

You
You
In my head
In my head

Perfection

And disappointment
Extreme disappointment
I won’t allow the pain

My heart
My heart
Is still beating in my chest

Too much caffeine?
Perhaps

My head
My head
Is spinning
Twirling
Whirling
Moving

I’m light headed
I’m dizzy

Am I sick?

Too much caffeine

I’m shaking

I love the leaves

I love that they crunch under my feet

I love the changing colors of the world

I love the smell

I love Halloween

I love the cooling air

I LOVE THE LEAVES!

THE LEAVES THE LEAVES THE LEAVES THE LEAVES THE LEAVES THE LEAVES THE LEAVES THE LEAVES!!!!!!!

They make me happy

I should really stop procrastinating

This a poor example of me not procrastinating

Because that is exactly what I am doing right now

Bad Sally

Quick somebody slap my hand

Though warning, I’m known to bite the hand that feeds

I want to tap dance with the leaves

I want to tap dance

Tap dance tap dance tap dance tap dance tap dance tap dance

Now.

But now… or soon actually… I get to go find out just how horribly I failed my French test.

I studied for it

I know, be amazed

But I failed

I can feel it

I thought I did okay on my math test

And then I got it back

It wasn’t what I wanted

I didn’t fail

But I am not happy

I want to go back to Oregon for a while

Or Ireland

Or Ireland permanently

I need a job…

Finding one would mean I need to stop procrastinating

Has anyone realized that I am just writing everything that is popping into my head?

Well almost.

I’m censoring it a little bit

You don’t get to know all that

That is too much

Only I get to know all that

I love fall

I want to go play with the leaves

Leaves are better than snow

For one they are prettier

And they are not cold

You can’t eat them

Well I suppose you could but I don’t think they’d taste like snow

But you shouldn’t really eat snow either anyway

I want new music

Any recommendations ?

That was a serious question right there leave me comments with artists and song titles and reasons why

Do it

Pretty please

I’m nervous to find out how badly I failed my test

And then I am also really reluctant to go to French class

Because it is hard

And the teacher rocks at making me feel even more idiotic than I already know I am

Damn it

I’ve been in college for two weeks, such a short period of time but I feel like I am missing out on the college “experience”.

I’m here
I’m living in the dorm
I’m fast on my way to gaining my freshman fifteen
I’m going to classes
Doing homework

But nothing feels different

Except my friends are so far away.

Sure I’ve met people. But when you get down to it, they’re more aquantiances. Where am I ever going to meet more people like my friends who really love and accept me for all the crazy things I am? Who love my broad intrests and my diverse clothing tastes. I mean I’ve met people I get along with but I haven’t really connected with anyone.

The only person who’s seen me be even mildly crazy is my roomate. And she hasn’t even seen all my sides yet.

How long will it take for me to make those connections.

They say college is where you grow up, and make life long friendships.

But everything for me is still the same.

I’m not used to having a town at my disposal or being able to go do things. So that is an adjustment I need to make

But I still don’t feel like I have connected with anyone.

At least I am not constantly eating alone anymore.

How do I put myself out there to make friends? To experience college?

I don’t think I should always be back in my room by 9:30 every night. Especially on the weekends. Especially as I am a night person and that is when I thrive!

I don’t know…

I’m still homesick

Can't change the mood

I can't write worth shit now thank you.

I have to have a poem written for tomorrow and I am having a hell of a time.

The teacher scares me. I feel like if she doesn't agree with the content of my poem or the way it is written she will eat me alive.

She's made me feel like I have to write about something worldy and intelligent. But I am not worldy and intelligent and I feel like I have no right to pass judgement on things.

I feel like I can't just write about a feeling. That whatever I write for a poem needs to do something.

And all of this is causing me to think too much about it all and I am getting no where.

Eventually I have to figure out what to turn in.

I am going to read some of my old poems and other peoples poems and see if that helps me at all.

then I am going to cross my finger and hold my breath.


Looking forward to ordering food with Caitlin (I knew I'd gotten her name wrong) and Angelica later.

This poem is going to drive me over the edge though...

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

So here is my first week of college in… well I intend it to be short but we’ll see how that goes.

Classes… math, eng comp, french, modern dance, poetry--------- hard, but not bad.

I actually love the dance class.

Friends---- I get along with my roomie, don’t know if I’d say we’re friends, but we talk, we laugh, we plan to call campus escort together.

A girl who lives next door, Rainy, a drama major loaned me a book.

A girl named Sara(h) ( I don’t know how she spells it, come to think of it I’m not sure if that is how Rainy spells her name) who I met during orientation is in my English class and I talked a bunch today. She is super cool. We talked piercings.

Then I was talking to another girl in my dorm, Cathrine, or something like that. And she invited me to go to a show or concert or something with her downtown. And I was supposed to meet her at her room. I went to her room. She was gone. I couldn’t find her. And since I was a dumbass and forgot to get her number I was unable to find her.

While I was trying to find her though I ran into another girl I had talked to from my dorm named Becky and I ended up going and watching the newest Indiana Jones movie with her and her sister and her sisters’ friends out on the oval (center of campus, outside, grass, etc.).

I realized later that I could have asked Cathrine’s roomie when she had left and maybe gotten her number from her but I didn’t so there you go. I am working at this whole making friends thing. At least I am getting better at maintaining conversations with strangers. I still don’t have enough guts to initiate a conversation but my confidence, I think, is improving.

I am going to a meeting for the fencing club on Tuesday. I’m excited. I want to join and learn to fence. I think it would also be a good friend maker.

So I am cold and warming up slowly.

I have to write a poem for class.

When I have to write poetry it is SO much harder. I wrote something today, but I don’t know if I like it yet.

I don’t know if I like anything at the moment.

I need to get better at this eating business though. I’m hungry. I haven’t eaten a proper meal since my parents left. I don’t like eating alone. And I don’t like eating at the food zoo. So what I have eaten has been crap. I need to suck it up and get used to eating alone or initiate some friendships… I don’t know. I’m just trying to pass classes at this point and go with the flow.

I’m a little homesick still… but I don’t know… I’m trying not to think too much (except about school and what not) and just LIVE. It’s easier said than done.

I still have a horrible feeling about not being able to find… however you spell her name for the show. I hope I run into her soon instead of not seeing her for so long that I feel even more like crap. When I see her (*crossed fingers*) we get it all worked out.

I hope I like fencing club.

I hope my poetry teacher gets less scary,

And I hope I make some friends, or this year is going to be really long…

I really wanted to have less time to sit around getting nervous for it but I haven't been able to sleep in since I've been here.

What use is getting your first class to not start until noon if you wake up at 9!?

I'm really nervous.

I can't wait to get it over with.

I figure once I have this first week under my belt I'll feel better.

I probably shouldn't have had so much coffee during my wait either.

At least my frist class tomorrow is at 9 so if I wake up early it won't matter.

I'm shaking.

In college

In my dorm room

I’ve been here for three days now

Today is the first my parents weren’t here either

My roomate hasn’t moved in yet, and I know no one so I’m lonely.

This is the first time in my life I have actually been homesick

College is HARD and I haven’t even started classes yet.

I’m nervous for that but I am also looking forward to it


I wanna join the fencing club! I just have to figure out how to do that


That would probably help me make friends

I really really really need to make some friends or I am going to end up spending all my time cooped up in this dorm room listening to the laughter all around me.

I’m not good at making friends

I really really didn’t want to eat alone today, because it’s awkward, but eventually, at dinner I had to talk myself into it.

I’m afraid there may be many meals like that

Oh I am so scared I am going to fuck this all up.



On the bright side I now have high speed internet so I can download my pictures in their full glory.

I’m taking a creative poetry class! I’m particuarly excited for that. I have never really known how to write poetry. It always just happened for me.


I think once I get used to all the changes it will be fine.

I’ll keep everyone posted


Anyone else starting college or having anything exciting happening to them?

On July 4th seven other scouts, three chaperones and myself set off for a two week European adventure. We changed planes in Amsterdam where I bought a hilarious postcard of a cow urinating. I mean it’s really funny. Then we proceeded on to Zurich where we ate dinner and took a train to Bern, and checked into a hostel. Of course by this time it is now July 5th, as we basically lost a day with the time change and the long flight.

On July 6th we locked our backpacks (aka suitcases) up at the train station and wandered around Bern until it was time to catch our train to Frutigen (excuse my spelling mistakes), and then a bus to Adelboden, where we then had to walk up a very steep hill, in the rain, with all our stuff. Once up the hill we had officially arrived at Our Chalet, the very first Girl Scout/Girl Guide world center (there are four total). It was spectacular. We were in the Swiss Alps!

We stayed at Chalet for a week, over the course of which I got to ride zip lines, be terrified by a ropes course (wire bridges, scary stuff), learn that abseiling (or however you spell it) is rappelling, and do that off the same bridge I later jumped off of as a human pendulum, which was the most amazing thing I’ve done so far in my mere eighteen years alive. The feeling of free falling from a height like that is incredible. I even ended up upside down because I more stepped off the bridge than jumped. Jumping more would have kept me upright but geezies capeizies it was FUN!

We took gondolas up into the Alps and hiked back down. Which was breath-taking and beautiful. We dressed up as idiots to perform the story of William Tell. I went white water rafting and was accidentally knocked out of the raft. When I was finally pulled back in (I was holding on to the side) our guide said, “Well that’s the longest rescues we’ve ever had.”

We toured a Swiss Choclatier and ate lots of Chocolate (which I think is drugged to make you crazy and addicted.) Bought expensive cookies and laughed hysterically while we photographed them.

I learned I suck at rock climbing, and that no matter how much we tried to work at it our groups communication skills would never improve.

After our week of adventure with fellow Scouts we took trains (yes more than one, some with 3 minutes in between each other, which actually went very smoothly) to Vienna. On the way I spilled chocolate on my pants, in a spot where it didn’t look like just chocolate, and we laughed a lot.

As we arrived in Vienna, it rained. We slept in our hostel, woke up, locked our bags in a train station and explored Vienna. We saw a bike race, lots of tourist attractions and street performers. A man trying to sell tickets for a concert that night began calling me Miss Lollipop, and four of us shuffled around under my tiny umbrella. We visited an art museum, and eventually returned to the train station to go to Prague.

This is where the adventure truly began. We were supposed to have a sort of sleeper to take us to Prague and the plan was to sleep on the train, which was to get to Prague at 6:30 in the morning. Well when we went to board the train they wouldn’t let us on the car we thought we were supposed to be on. Apparently we had tickets but not reservations, and as we weren’t the only ones with this problem the put on another car. We then had to change trains in about an hour. When we went to get on this other train it was also full. So we ended up packed into the end of a car where the bathroom is. There was even a guy sitting in the bathroom just to make space. Finally, some people got off and we were able move into the hallway, where we could sort of uncomfortable sit down and sleep a little. This wasn’t the cleanest train we’d been on either. About an hour away from Prague a couple compartments finally opened up and we were able to sit in seats. However instead of arriving in Prague at 6:30 we ended up on a fast train that got us there at 3:30 in the morning.

We had to use the bathroom but we had no Czech Crowns (you have to pay to pee), and no money exchange venues were open. And since we hadn’t gotten to sleep on the train we were exhausted. While two of the chaperones ran about Prague fruitlessly knocking on hostel doors the rest of us curled up on our bags on the cold, dirty, train station floor and fell asleep. About eight in the morning we woke, got money changed, locked up our backpacks, and went out to find ourselves some food.

We ate while we walked and went to Old Town where we took a walking tour. Our tour guide was fantastic. He told us what to watch out for, who was probably going to rob you, that the souvenir shops were actually run by the Russian Mafia, and also gave us a e... ]]> ~salad7 http://salad7.deviantart.com/journal/19195690/ http://salad7.deviantart.com/journal/19195690/ Fri, 04 Jul 2008 03:50:03 PDT
For those of you who don’t know (and happen to care) I am going with Girl Scouts to one of the four world centers.

It’s called Our Chalet, and I am so freaking excited!

We’re doing some other touring too but this is what I am most excited about.

Oh and I am NOT too old to be a Girl Scout.

That is impossible.

You’re never too old, you can be too young (younger than 5), but not too old.

I am actually a life time member.

Which makes me happy.

Hopefully I will take lots of deviation worthy pictures with my new lens. I’ve got my fingers crossed that the adapter we have will actually work that way I can charge my batteries and what not. I also hope I have enough memory cards….

I can’t really afford another though, they are so damned expensive.

Ok, well I really just wanted to get that old journal off my page.

Mission accomplished

I’m going to keep babbling a bit I think.

Because I am pulling an all-nighter so I will actually sleep on the plane tomorrow.

Everyone should go check out my buddies.

and are both writers. They have just written a book. It’s not published yet, but they are posting it together and it is fantastic. I haven’t read the whole thing but what I’ve read is REALLY good. Mind you they say what they have up is just a rough draft, and believe me there is a LOT more to come.

beat me in the pageview war. She is a pencil artist and is amazing! And I do mean amazing!

I love you one and all!

btw my mood is excited not lonely... it's not letting me change it...

I still have a massive headache, but I am functioning normally.

On the happier side… (which involves much less unwanted matter emerging from the body), my lens came!

It’s beautiful. I haven’t had much opportunity to truly test it out. It’s heavier than I expected but waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better than the kit lens I was using.

The trip to Europe in a few weeks will be the real test.

I took some flower shots today before the flowers I got after the recital a week ago died… I’m so happy with them that I can’t decide what to post!

Oooooooooooooh! Yay!

The only problem I’ve had is while I was shooting the flowers my camera did one of those error things which I’ve never had happen before. So I’m wondering if it was the lens, or something I did wrong… I don’t know but I got it working again fine.


Ji-hye (our exchange student) left today. I am happy and sad to see her go.

I kind of got used to her being here… and everything rearranged to accommodate having another person here. It’s weird having the computer back where it used to be. It almost doesn’t feel right.

Things are starting to sink it a little bit now about having to move on in life. One phase is over. Starting… only starting to sink in… it’s not all the way there yet.

I’m really wishing I had high speed internet right now… My computer keeps fighting me. That should be one really nice thing about college… faster internet… I hope. My luck having all these gadgets like a cell phone and my own computer aren’t going to be as great as I am imagining them. I dreamt about the laptop though… I kid you not.

Argh! Damn computer I am too tired for this! This keeps happening! I get on with all these things I plan to do and by the time I get deviantart and my computer to start kind of liking each other my purpose has gone to “damn it I’ll just post this stupid journal I typed to keep myself from being bored while it let me on to deviantart and then I’ll just get off.”

Geez I’m lame.

And a rambler extrodiaire.

I wanna go sleepy time!

I won’t get too into the whole graduation thing, and the busy stuff, I will say though that I am going to purchase a new lens. I want a really versatile lens that I can just slap on my camera and is good for travel. I don’t want to take more than one lens to Europe with me, and also I don’t know when I will ever again have the money for a new lens so I want something good that will work for just about everything.

I have a lens in mind, but I would LOVE (this is me commanding input from photographers!  ) suggestions on a great all-around lens!



That said I know I haven’t been that active recently and I’m working on it… slowly but surely… I don’t really have anything I desperately want to post… or I don’t think… there are a few items I am thinking about putting up. But for the most part I’m just trying to clear out my inbox.


Keep talking to me I’m still here!

Schools almost over… I am freaking out… I don’t think I am ready for this.


I think I want to try painting a face… in an abstract way… I may give it a go as soon as I have the time…. Painting is fun.

However ~michaelphelpsismine and I both got a tad screwed over on the local scholarships.

Answer me this. If you saw something that said, “You need one reference from a faculty member, and two others from people not related to you.” Wouldn’t you think you could use 3 faculty members because they aren’t related to you?

Well that is what I thought. And Amy. But apparently those other two couldn’t be faculty members. Luckily we were both the only two to apply for those scholarships so we get to turn in new references. But it’s is one more thing to stress me out.

I’m not feeling well either.

I’m MASSIVELY behind in math that I don’t have a flying clue how to do.


But anywho. I’ll try and post some photos this weekend that I’ve taken.

I’m also planning on posting my senior paper.

Yup.

I love you all…

Well not really because that would be creepy.

I just wanted to say that

I do love some of you though but you already know that (so don’t go yelling at me Samantha, Megan, Amy and Amanda!)

Enough procrastinating and more pretending that I understand all this cos, sin, tan shit.

So go look at her stuff because she is one of my bestest buddies; and I kid you not, very talented. She is also in the process of losing her dog so it’s a sad time for her! Go give her some love!

Secondly… only 33 days of school left! Holy crap nuggets!

I am super busy. I might post my senior paper when I am finished with it because I feel that my topic is very important and I want to get it out there. Let’s just hope I get it finished on time.

The ADX dance competition this weekend went alright, a bit disappointing but I don’t really want to get into it. It was fun anyway.

I’m off to FBLA state today. Hopefully that goes all well.

On the downside I didn’t think last night when I was packing and I only brought heels for my business attire and my ankle has really been bugging me lately so that may not have been the best idea. Plus the are kind of crazy boots that look really professional when worn with pants but I forgot to bring something to go with a skirt so I may be wearing the same clothes for stuff. If the judges saw the tops of the shoes I’d lose points for dress code violation.

Anyway I really felt like I needed to update to let you all know I’m still alive I’ve just hit a really busy month.

I took some pictures on the way to Portland over the weekend, but I haven’t gotten a chance to see if I find any of them deviation worthy yet.

I feel like an ass since my journals are very rarely just deviantart related like they should be. But tough toots I guess because this is just what I do.

Go check out ~TheRaptor-Wolfy and cheer her up about her doggy!

It snowed over half a foot.

Good thing I decided to wait to buy a swimsuit.

The government never has enough of it.

The schools never have enough

Charities never have enough

Families never have enough

No one ever has enough.

It is the driving force of our worlds.

It is what we spend our whole lives trying to earn.

It is the aim of every person to gain, so they can spend it.

And money, turns into possessions.

And possessions turn people on one another, whether it be small children arguing over a toy or a husband and wife who each bought the exact same item and can’t tell who’s is who’s.

And then money becomes our whole existence, our whole purpose in this universe.

Our purpose, becomes, a man-created terror.


I know all the logical reasons behind money so I don’t want to hear it from anyone, but I am now starting to understand how it affects our lives.

And I have finally figured out the one major guilt trip my parents use all the time.

Take today for example, I was reminded that it was “his computer,” “his car,” “his television,” “his house,” and that he was going to be “shelling out big bucks” for me to go to college.

I don’t think they do it on purpose but every time they remind me how much money I cost them I feel guilty for being alive, for wanting to do anything, for wanting to get a higher level education, and choosing a facility which is out-of-state, and not being as smart as my brother, which meant I did not receive the scholarship that would grant me in-state-tuition.

I don’t feel when he tells me things like, “Who’s car is it?” I’m ever implying it’s mine or asking anything unreasonable.

Sometimes I’m just stating something I find slightly unfair, like that if I want to drive myself to a friend’s in La Pine (half and hour away) and stay the night, his first reason for rejecting the idea is, “I don’t want the car left up there all night.”

My argument, “How is it different than when we stay at a hotel? You’re still there, the car is still outside in a strange place instead of tucked snuggly in our garage. How is it different from that time when mom went and stayed with Kay?”

His response is always some bullshit reason that really doesn’t make any sense, followed by, “It’s my car.”

Today I didn’t even ask to leave it over night anywhere. I asked to take it for the day tomorrow, and I only asked, because it is his car.

He grills me on who will be with me.

“I don’t know, probably Amy and Samantha for sure, since I have to pick them up to get to Shelby’s.”

He wants to know why I need it.

“Because there are probably going to be seven of us, not for sure yet, but Shelby, Whitney, Megan, Amanda, Amy, Samantha and me… we’re not all going to fit into one car.”

Then he wants to know where exactly we’ll be going.

In my head I’m thinking we’re a bunch of teenage girls do you think we plot out every single thing we’re going to do?

I tell him, “Well we’re going to go to the movies and then get something to eat for sure.”

But that is not enough, where else? Where else?

I don’t know. I make a few guesses. Eventually he’s semi-satisfied, then…

“I want you home before dark.”

Me- “I can’t guarantee that.”

“What’d you mean you can’t guarantee that? It’s my car.”

There he goes again reminding me what is a huge DUH! If it had been my car, (you can probably tell I don’t have a car) it probably wouldn’t have mattered as much… still some interrogation…but not as much.

I finally get him to end it by saying it probably won’t be that late because Shelby will have to work the next day, and that I will call.

I really have no idea what time we will get home.

And to satisfy him even more I tell him that before we go to Amy’s I’ll come home so he can drive us there and take the car back so it’s at home, “Because I know you don’t like it to be other places at night.”

I should’ve stopped there but I didn’t… and we got into the issue about how I can’t sleep over at someone’s house with our car parked right next to their very responsible parent's cars.

I don’t remember how the college funds came up at dinner, but they did…

Getting money for college is proving to be a nightmare.

I’m drowning in scholarship applications I know I’m not going to get, but I am applying for to please my parents.

And then there are the discussions about finances for college with my friends. These always make me feel horrible, because we have WAAAAAAAAAYY more money than any of them.

Every time the topic comes up I... ]]> ~salad7 http://salad7.deviantart.com/journal/17451973/ http://salad7.deviantart.com/journal/17451973/ Sat, 22 Mar 2008 01:37:34 PDT
Today was surprisingly good.

I had my usual trouble dragging myself out of bed, but once I did and woke up I actually felt totally refreshed. I had gotten 8 hours of sleep.

And I didn’t realize until this morning when I worked it out in my head that on school days I average around 6 hours of sleep which would explain why I am always so tired and sleep for 12 hours on weekends.

So with a delicious cup of coffee and a rather large breakfast (by my standards) of cinnamon toast and hash browns, and I went to our French “final”.

For our final we had to give our presentations which I was really nervous about. The final started at 10:15, so we left here at 9.

What we didn’t know was the roads were icy and we were fifteen minutes late!

Both our presentations went really well! Perhaps a bit short… but we didn’t totally humiliate ourselves.

And then I got my hair fixed… there is still a piece of nasty green but it’s not that noticeable, and the bottom half is almost black now but it is a massive improvement and I like it a lot more! I don’t think I’m going to go back to that hairdresser though… I sensed some hostility… I think I am a tad too eccentric for her.

Then we went and kidnapped my Kirsty Wirsty for lunch, and a Barnes and Noble trip!

I bought a book!

Samalamy got her phone replaced and I just had a good day!


Now my brother is home so he can help me get caught up in math.

I still feel totally weighed down and drowning in stuff.

The fact that I am coming down with the uber deadly senioritis isn’t exactly assisting the problem.

I have to make sure I get some stuff done over spring break… oh and believe me there is A LOT of it to do.

My top priority is probably the scholarship application due on April 1st.

I don’t have a chance in hell of getting this scholarship but I gotta try!


Anyway… after seeing some breathtaking pictures of the Alps today I am really excited for my trip this summer to Switzerland. Because I will be staying SOO close to the Swiss Alps! I may even get to go hiking in them!


New Subject!

Recently I read a journal of a very talented photographer which was funny, and I also read some of the comments. One thing I found in there bugged me a little and I kinda wanna address it from my viewpoint.

He made the comment that there are a lot of teenagers on this site.

He is right, there are. I am a teenager.

And some of them are incredibly talented…

And some of them… well not so much…

The way it was put made it seem like he thought it was terrible that this site is so overrun with teenagers…

But teenagers are internet addicts! It’s true! I am a culprit!

But some are also on her truly to try and improve their work.

I know I shouldn’t have let his comment bug me so much… but I don’t think I’ve ever been on a site that was so varied in ages… it’s good.

I can watch older photographers and ask them questions… which I do, and a lot has been very helpful. Mind half the time I have no idea what they are on about and I feel like what I am, an ignorant little girl, but asking their advice really helps.

So yeah….

I have now lost my train of thought…

It went “chug chug chug” right off the tracks!


Anyway… I’ve been feeling a lot lately like it’s time to “grow up” and it’s not only people telling me; it’s all the responsibility and expectations that have been falling on my shoulders.

I can’t seem to remember my age for the life of me either.

Plus people have recently reminded me that we have less than 50 days of school left… and then jobs and college…

I’m SCARED.

And definitely not ready to “grow up”.


Now for some random stuff

1. Ji-hye has fallen asleep on the couch… she just woke up and looked at me, I thought she was going to get up and go to bed… she just fell back asleep.

2. I’m freezing

3. Thirsty but lazy

4. My broth... ]]> ~salad7 http://salad7.deviantart.com/journal/17356391/ http://salad7.deviantart.com/journal/17356391/ Sun, 16 Mar 2008 01:41:06 PDT had.

Well she is going to have to get rid of them really soon, so I went over to her house and took some more pictures for her. They are much, much bigger but still really cute. They were much harder to photograph this time since they moved around a lot more, but I enjoyed the challenge.

Also the first time I shot them I was borrowing a better lens from yearbook which I didn’t have this time.

Anyway I have posted a few, more than I normally would from a single shoot, I hope you enjoy them.

I decided to make two of them part of my photo challenge because I felt they fit two of the categories… but I didn’t want to try and put them all in.

I’m sorry I haven’t post much else than journals… I haven’t had much time to take pictures… it felt really good to do so.


Anyway, I haven’t been able to do away with my anxiety about the French Presentation but I am temporarily relieved because I didn’t have to do it on Thursday because there wasn’t time. So now I have more time to improve on it! YAY!

Sama ( ) and I were both shaking and then incredibly relieved when we didn’t have to go.

Anyway I decided I wanted to “feature” some of my friends’ stuff that I think is really good. So here’s the best I can do without a subscription.

I have to give a French presentation tomorrow.

I am really really really really times infinity reallys freaked out about it.

I don’t wanna fail

I don’t wanna embarrass myself

I don’t want to say something stupid

I don’t want everyone to look at me, hear what I’m saying and just know that I am only an average high school student… definitely not a college student.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Anyway I am still swamped and have no idea when, if ever I am going to get some new deviations up. Maybe over spring break which is coming up.

Anyway I am still putting out there that I want people to add me on msn. Salad_Seven_7@hotmail.com

Even though I still have like a trillion deviations to look at (I exaggerate immensely) I must go to bed now… I seem to have developed permanent bags under my eyes and sleep is the only way I can think to get rid of them.

Arrgh

And thirsty

I want water

But I am too lazy to get up and get it

So I will torture whoever reads this with my randomness


I am putting out there now that I WANT ANYONE WHO HAS MSN MESSANGER TO ADD ME.

Seriously

Do it.

I think the address is on my page

But by the chance I took it off

Salad_Seven_7@hotmail.com

DO IT!!!!

ADD ME!

You know you want to.

I’ll admit… at times I am boring… but aren’t we all.


I actually have a lot of stuff I should be doing right now besides this…


I’ve waited too long to do my exercises… I’m going to have to work hard at being quiet so I don’t wake everyone in my house up.

Only I feel like it’s really late…

But it’s really not…


I have gotten in the habit of drinking hot water each night.

It used to be hot cider…

But then mom sent all the cider to my brother…

So I just drank the hot water I heated up for the cider before I remembered there was none.

And now we have cider again…

And I am still just drinking hot water…

It’s delicious.


My brother got me the Hairspray Soundtrack for my birthday.

I am in love with it.

Musicals are snazzy.

I think I was probably the only 8 year old who knew who Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers were, let alone watched their movies…

It makes me happy to see musicals making a come back.

Not that I can really remember them being a cool thing… hmmm…

You know I call myself old sometimes… but I’m really not.

I’m starting to get sick of my dad saying things about teenagers thinking they know it all… because I don’t say that… oh no I don’t.

This is getting so ridiculously random that I’m sure the only people still reading are my really close friends who are only reading it out of obligation.

You guys can stop.

This is really for my own bored pleasure.

But I’m still posting it to torture you all.

Wow…. I’m getting tired.

I’m going to have to get off soon so I can exercise and hit the sack.

Hehe… that expression makes me giggle… “hit the sack” hehehehe…

Yup I am definitely immature.

As it should be

Oh and I can’t decide who is the sexiest man alive. It’s between James Marsden and Rupert Grint… oh yeah they are both so attractive it should be illegal.

And I have a feeling I didn’t do anything to squash the lesbian rumor with my senior research paper topic… oh well.

I know in my last journal I was complaining about how my mother was messing up my plans.

Well I got that sorted out.

And then… I got a nasty nasty NASTY cold.

Still have it.

Came down with it on Wednesday, lost my voice, which I just got back today.

I am REALLY happy to have my voice back!

It was starting to annoy me not being able to vocally express myself.

It seems I have been taking the ability to speak for granted.

I completely lost it a couple of times yesterday.

Anyway even though I didn’t have a voice on my birthday I was feeling a little bit better.

Not as good as I am feeling today.

So I went ahead and took my friends into town, that is except Meg ( ) because she is REALLY, horribly sick. (Go check out her gallery so she has something to make her feel better!)

We all fit into one car without Meg though. Lets say my driving still needs some work but we’re all still alive and the car is fine so whoooo!

It kinda sucked that I couldn't taste any of the great food we ate yesterday.

I hope I didn't get any of my pals sicky...

I didn’t stay over at Shelby’s though.

I would have if I had felt yesterday like I did today. (Might've been able to taste the food too.)

Anyway I did take some pictures though.

I have no idea if they are deviant worthy though.

I probably won’t be downloading and posting for a bit still.

I am still sick but not nearly as bad.

I think mostly what I need is a lot of rest so I’m gonna take it easy for the next couple of days and try not to stress.

Whoo for birthdays!


(I'm not sure that makes much sense... I am still out of it... but I wanted to update

Which sucks because my day was going so well until mom announced that I did not have a say in where I spent the night on my 18th birthday.

It is not like I am irresponsible or spending the night with guys.

Here is the plan, on my birthday me and 5 of my best girly friends go into town and have fun. We’re also celebrating Amanda’s ( ) birthday, which is this weekend. So it’s a double party.

All girls.

That we were going to stay the night at Shelby’s house since it is big and her parents won’t make us go to bed at a “decent hour” or tell us we can’t be noisy after 10 like my parents will.

This was the consensus with all of us.

Shelby volunteered her house.

It’s not so much a birthday celebration as it is a chance for us to hang out and have. Take some down time from our busy schedules.

And I told mom about this and she didn’t freak out, didn’t say no.

She said “Okay”

So I assumed it was a go since she didn’t say a DAMNED thing at the time.

But here today she tells me that we are NOT having the sleepover at Shelby’s we are having it here because it is her prerogative to ….blah blah blah.

It made me mad!

Don’t change your mind on me!

I’m going to be 18!

Legally I don’t have to listen to a damn word she says!

But I still live under her roof…

I’m just pissed about it.

I don’t want to stay here.

And I don’t have a damn clue how to get that across to her.

She censers movies, bed times, junk food intake, volume which ruins all the fun.

Plus there is a certain person living here who I like well enough but truth be told I don’t really want to include on the festivities.

This is mine and Amanda’s party.

Our CLOSEST friends.

That’s it.

ARRRGH!

It’s probably stupid and self centered to care about stupid shit like this but honestly right now I don’t care.

I am a selfish teenager this is how all this works.

I get to be selfish and gripe about stupid crap when there are other major problems in the rest of the world because that is how…. Actually there is no good reason but still…

If you were in my head this would make a whole lot more sense and you would know what I was trying and failing to say.


Trying to get away from that topic… My throat hurts.

Damn it.

It sucks.

Not as bad as when I had strep though, that sucked.

I have a mountain of school work and scholarships and stuff to do.

It never ends.

I finish one stack and another appears.

Sneezing hurts my throat.

I have a lot of deviations to look at….

Oh geez

This is ridiculously long.

I don’t care, it’s not like I’m forcing anyone to read it

So if you’ve read this far you did it of your own choice.

Though I know Samantha ( ) will tell me I forced her to when I did NOT!

I hate silent favorites by the way.

In my opinion if you like something enough to add it to your favorites you should have something to comment.

I hate it when my stuff gets added to favorites and they don’t leave me a comment to tell me why they like it or critique or anything.

See I like complaining and griping.

Dear god I am turning into Sama

The computer is making funny noises.

I wanna eat left overs

But I know I shouldn’t

I wanna go to bed, and at the same time I don’t

I can’t even remember Monday, I remember feeling busy and tired. That was the ONLY day I got to go to all my classes.

I had hip hop and French class Tuesday and stayed up until one in the morning to memorize my speech for FBLA the next day.

Wednesday I had to get up at 5:30 to be at the bus at 6, which was half an hour late.

Didn’t get to sleep until around 11 or so.

Thursday I had school, French and ballet.

Friday I left during the end of first period for Wrestling districts, and by that point I was wiped.

Stayed up too late watching 16 candles and had to get up at 6.

Got maybe an hour of sleep on the bus on the way home.

Got back an hour into homecoming, ran home and changed, went back danced like a lunatic and now I am here.



I took a bunch of pictures. I’m not downloading them tonight, we’ll see if I ever have the time to post them. Next week shouldn’t be as crazy so who knows.

There were loads of HOT guys at the wrestling meet. It was fabulous. I’m just sad I didn’t have one of my girly friends to share it with.

I’m hungry but I know I shouldn’t eat this late.



HOLY SHIT! I have 111 messages (I just got on to deviant, I type these in word), and they’re mostly messages and favorites. GEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEZZZZZZZZZZZ!

I’m confused.

What the hell!

Not that I’m complaining I’m just shocked.

It hasn’t been THAT long since I’ve been on.

I mean I am not surprised to have 155 deviations but 111 messages…. Wow.

I am baffled

I knew bunnies were cute but seriously…. I am stunned.

And someone is featuring me in their journal…. Whaa………… *dumbfounded look*

I wish I could remember what my page view count was before so I could know if it increased any.

Holy shit but my gallery stats sure went up

Ok I’m in shock.

That was probably a once thing since bunnies are so cute.

I’m still amazed though

And in shock.

Posting this now.

I hate that I can’t get on here at the school anymore.

I don’t have much time to other wise



I AM SO SICK OF SNOW!

We haven’t gotten this much snow since the early 90’s, there is probably over 3 feet

We’ve had school cancelled 2 days in a row which may sound great but really it sucks because it was spirit week and now homecoming is being postponed and I am going to be all messed up because of it.

Now I can’t go to homecoming.

Not that it really concerns me but I am a little worried about the yearbook stuff.

*Sigh*

It’s out of my control but I actually really didn’t want to get these days off.

Plus ballet was cancelled yesterday.

It was nice to get out of teaching but not out of my lessons.

I need those.

Anyway I posted some stuff. If I had been feeling up to it I might have taken some snow pictures today but I didn’t.

And I didn’t exactly have the best of day

Not really any particular reason for that except that I woke up in a bad mood or something

And now I feel like both my head and gut are going to explode.

I’m tired but I know this is my best chance to get the use the internet undisturbed and unfiltered so I am taking advantage of it.

I am so overwhelmed I am on the verge of giving up… there is so much to do that I don’t’ even know where to start.

And when I think I’m getting it figured out someone is nagging at me to do this and this and this and this that I was putting off so I could do other stuff and it is nearly impossible explaining to them I have other priorities.



I don’t even want to think about all that though

It stresses me out

I wouldn’t be surprised if I was getting an ulcer

That would be horrible

I am too young to be this stressed

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Anyway Meg aka and me haven’t gotten around to painting yet but I did take a bunch of pictures of her baby bunnies which I have yet to even download and look at and see if there is anything worth posting…

Ditto with a lot of other pictures I’ve taken.



It’s been FREEZING here lately… always in the negative numbers when I go slouching off to school… bleh… I’m ready for it to warm up to at least 18 degrees farenheit!

You know I am discovering if I don’t move much I don’t feel as ucky… and in pain… ugh… and I can’t figure out the pain… I am pretty sure my appendix is on the side opposite the pain…

Hmmm…. Hopefully it will pass and in the morning I will feel fine

I really want to read before I go to bed but I don’t think that is going to be such a good idea… maybe I will try shooting the basketball game tomorrow… hmmm

Actually I am so … bleh… that even though this may be my only chance to really spend time on deviantart for a while (she doesn’t pass out on the couch like this often. Nor does both mom and dad go to bed this early when I don’t have school the next day often) I am not going to look at all the deviations in my boxy…though I feel confident they are all fantastic and I really want to see them all but know it won’t happen…

I am just going to finish my cider and collapse into a heap underneath the blankets on my bed.

And I’m not going to post a link to my old journal that has my latest photo challenge update… it hasn’t changed since then and if you really care as me and I’ll give you an update..

THEY ARE AMAZING! It was beyond amazing… I can’t even think of the words…

Well actually I could earlier but now that I’ve waited too long to write this it has all gone from my head.

But it was better than a rock concert.

It got my adrenaline pumping and I didn’t even have to jump around screaming at the top of my lungs…

It was that good.



My poor kitty…. I sorta kinda dropped her earlier today….

And then I noticed she is limping a little.

I feel awful.

I hope I didn’t hurt her

But I don’t know what to do

I feel SO bad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wuv my kitty!

Stupid! Stupid! Me!

I am so angry with myself.

And what is worse is I feel helpless as to helping her…

If this was Korea I would now be 19!

I wonder how many journal entries are being posted with the same title as this one?

I’ve been updating my journal like I am Sama (aka or something. (haha, jk sammy I love you!)

I took some pictures today at the New Years thingy I went to

It was good fun, I’m still wearing my New Years tiara (it matches my hair.)

I’ll upload them later

Tomorrow hopefully

I graduate in about 5 months, turn 18 in about 2, and will be attending my first college class in about 7.

Wow.

Now here is a task for you… I don’t make New Years resolutions because I end up contradicting my resolution so it works better not to, but if you do tell me what yours is!

HAVE A GREAT NEW YEARS!

I got to hang out with my Kirsty Wirsty today, and her and Flon are back together, and even though I don’t like him she is happy so I am happy.

I’m into the school I want

I got an awesome new pair of jeans

Alvin and the Chipmunks is a great movie

I love coffee, I drank 5 cups

Things are good

I discovered a great Camera store in town

Things are great!

I’ve been feeling better, though I am still not sleeping well.

I am still procrastinating dangerously, and wasting huge amounts of time...

But things are good.

I got accepted into the University of Montana, which was my first choice school so I have that settled for next fall, so it’s one less thing to worry about.

I’m looking at the website now. Exciting.

I didn’t get the scholarship I was really hoping for, so that is a bummer but I did get a scholarship that should cover my room and board I’m thinking.

So I feel relieved that the only college oriented thing I’m going to have to focus on is getting some more scholarships.

My Christmas was pretty good.

Hope everyone else is doing well!


(I just heard our wind chimes and for a minute I thought I was in Ireland again.)

A year ago exactly I was getting all hyped up to go there, it was all I could think about, I was so excited, and so nervous.

Now I’ve been back here for over 6 months. Longer than I was there.

And I guess I’ve sort of settled back in, but nothing is really the same, nothing is ever going to be the same.

So much of me changed in the time I was in Ireland, I’m still getting to know myself all over again.

I don’t get the same rush out of performing anymore, I get nervous…

Performing hasn’t made me nervous since my first competition, and then again at my third competition after several years without competing.

I don’t like it.

What is wrong with me?

Is something causing me to lose my passion for dance?

I’ve had problems feeling completely and utterly happy since I got back.

I don’t like it.

I’m so confused about everything.

I don’t really know what I want to do with my life so I’m guessing.

Everything is going by so fast, it’s all a haze.

I just seem to be robotically living one day after another, going through the motions and actions, even my words are automatic, it’s almost like not living anymore.



And no one has seemed to notice I am so good at being robotic.



I hope I’m not getting truly and actually depressed because that just doesn’t seem like me. But then again I don’t seem to really know me anymore.

Last time this happened I started journaling. Now I journal everyday and it hasn’t helped a bit.

I don’t know what to do.

And I don’t even really want any advice… I don’t know what I want.

I don’t know if I want someone to confide in.

And I think I am probably going to regret posting this… if I even do (and if I have you’re reading it.)

I’m just tired of feeling so blue… and I don’t even know if blue is the word to describe it.

*sigh*

No one seems to have noticed anything different either.

*sigh*

I’m so so confused.




You know I haven’t written poetry or any imaginative stories in a long time. Nor have a felt any impulse to.

I use to love writing.

One of my ambitions was to publish a book.

But I found myself thinking today, that I don’t want to minor in creative writing, and I don’t particularly care if I’m ever published.

What is happening to me?

I don’t know myself anymore!

I don’t think anyone understands how much anxiety that puts me through.

I have always known myself so well.

So well.

And I had always prided myself on that.

And now I am constantly confused.

Questioning different things.

I am totally different.

Help

(I think? Do I want help? I don’t know? I don’t know anything….)

I got my class ring today and I really like it.

I have a lot of things I need to do though… I don’t think this is really going to be much of a “break” except that I can sleep in most mornings.

I have 0 Christmas shopping done yet.

And I have a lot of school work to get caught up on.

*sigh*

I still feel pretty overwhelmed but I’m trying not to.

I took some pics but now I can’t decide which ones to post… I’m torn… I hope to take some more but who knows.

My brother is home.

He’s already kind of annoying but not so bad.

I still love him.

He told me about this interesting tradition they have involving their class rings and the Air Force Academy that I feel the need to share…

Ok so their Junior year they have a “Ring Dance” which is like the equivalent to a Junior Prom only they get their class rings.

Pretty much everyone brings a date (how my brother will get one no one knows.)

Anyway sometime between dinner and the dancing portion of the evening they are given glasses of champagne that have their name on it and everything, and at the bottom of the glass full of champagne is their ring.

They then toast their dates and drink their champagne.

Then they kiss their date and transfer the ring from their mouth to their dates.

Their date then takes the ring and puts it on the Cadet’s finger.

I know… GEEZIES CAPEZIES!

And ew.

I think that is all for tonight.

And since I still can’t decide which shot to post I am going to wait for a while until my mind has cleared more and I can settle on something.

Hope everyone is have holly jolly holidays!

I’m still pretty tired but I feel better. A bit gloomy still but on the whole much better.

I have so much to do. I need to get organized.

I want it to snow….. and I don’t.

I don’t want it to snow because I don’t want to have to drive it in.

But I want it to snow so I can take some pictures of it.

I feel like painting.

I’ve been getting that feeling a lot recently.

The desire to paint.

I am not particularly good at painting….. in fact I’m not particularly good at anything but ho-hum pigs bum.

It’s kinda funny actually. Because when I started on here it was with writing. And then I started messing about with photography and started posting that and now it is mostly what I post. And now I am starting to mess about with painting. Interesting no?


Hmmm… I have a science test today. I predict failure.

Good thing Mr. Rea isn’t going to be in today so I can attempt to get caught up in math.

hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[link] <--- still haven't progressed from what I posted here on my photo challenge. I haven't had much of a chance.

Cramping…….uggggggggghhhhh

Feel ugly

Am ugly

Feel overwhelmed

Am overwhelmed

To much pressure

Pushing down

Think I’m shrinking

Just want to sleep

Relax

Enjoy life

Nothing is ever enough

Why is nothing never enough?

Why can I never be good enough?

Why can’t you truly be proud?

Why can’t you see how hard I try to make you happy?

To please you?

To make you proud of me?

Why is it never enough?

I’m never going to be enough.

I’m never going to achieve that much.

I’m never going to be that smart.

But why can’t you see how hard I try?!

I just want to enjoy my life.

Why can’t you see how hard I try?

I hate to cry.

I hate to cry.

I hate to cry.

I hate to cry.

I hate to cry.

I hate to cry.

Only it was different from when I was little, I looked forward to it for different reasons and enjoyed it for different reasons.

Oh fuck, it seems, that I may be growing up…

I enjoyed how all the preparation made for great family bonding, and made the meal all the more rewarding.

I liked how things that really are so trivial could really make us all so happy.

I enjoyed the unnecessary amounts of food I ate until I felt sick (and still do).

It was fun using the fancy dishes that all have to be hand-washed and are almost pointless to have in the first place.

That was never why I enjoyed thanksgiving when I was little.

In fact I don’t really remember why I liked it then… well I kind of do…

I liked pretending I was a pilgrim or an Indian. I liked seeing people I ordinarily didn’t see.

I liked the desert.

Now I enjoy the work that makes the meal rewarding. I enjoying sitting around with my dorky family and forgetting my manners completely while I try to out-eat my brother.



I fiddled with my camera a lot today which was fun.

I’m posting a few. I’m going to try and apply them to the challenge I started doing.
