i've been alright lately. these days i spend my time riding bikes, playing music, enjoying too much wine with friends and reading lots and lots of books. it's nice.

no rea.y plans on what i'm doing with myself. i may bike across the country with a freind. i need to decide whether or not i'm going to school next year for that...

um. yeah. not much to report?

so. i officially quit drinking this morning (yay me!). because it's not even fun. i just run around swearing worse than an enraged brit on the way to the world cup, which pisses off my friends and is probably really annoyng. also, i still have no job. cold stone told me i was hired when i turned in an app two weeks ago and... the bitches never called me back. god. i need money for stuff, oh the stuff i need.

by the way, did anyone see teen titans on the wb last saterday morning? omFg. i was going to kill tara. if i didn't love my tv so much, i would have kicked her as hard in the face as i possable could. and broken the screen. god, that bitch.

i'm doing this project in one of my art classes that may turn out kind of sweet, i think. we did marbalizing and now we are supposed to do whatever with the paper we have, so i'm doing a shadow/contrast thing with it that might look cool. i'll post it if it turns out. i'm doing a perspective thing, too. yeah.

untill then, somebody do a request. or offer a trade... or something to get me off my lazy ass. i'll even do anime or anthro or whatever, so long as it's something un-ugly.

and... YAY. paris guest-stars on ellen's birthday bash today, not to mention the premiere of The Simple Life 3: Interns is on. i could dance, i'm so happy. sorry i have such a retarded fetish.

fuck g, we is goin' ta hell.

i'm trying to see the silver lining. perhaps hillary clinton will run in 2008, i'm not sure she could win though. don't get me wrong, she is awesome and would totally have my vote, not to mention she would have a bit of an advantage being a woman candidate (as well as clinton's wife), but there is no way she could pull it off. she is just too left. the south hates her with a bloody passion. 'hillary clinton!' it's a dirty word, so far as conservatives and republicans are concerned.. i'm sure she would get at least 45% of the nation without even trying, but that wouldn't be enough. she's too radical, she would lose. so... colin powell, maybe? i'm not a big republican fan, but he is pretty moderate. he wouldn't be nearly as bad as bush....................

bush. ... anger or something. i wonder how things are going to work out now. republicans now have a majority in both the house and the senate, so he has a lot more power now than before, not to mention he has reached the pinnacle of his career, he doesn't have to worry about re-election so he doesn’t have to please any one any more. free hand for him i guess. 'please mr. bush, don't fuck my country and my future over.'

i am going to be crying every day for the next for years. god. um... why? how about i give you... my experienc of bush and his shortcomings:

he, being bush, has fucked up everything wonderful, or at least decent, that america had.

schools... no child left behind was just a fucking tax cut. he doesn't really care about our nation's future, so bush decided to close down a few hundred school nation wide and demand reform in thousands upon thousands more... without any grant money. ha. grant money? wouldn't that be nice. oh well, instead to help 'aid our failing schools' he decided to go off and cut funds and taxes for them. yeah. lots of help there.

then we have social security and all those fun welfare programs he cut.. sure in our dying economy, with unemployment rates sky-rocketing, let's try to cut back on taxes and spending by getting rid of all our financial aid programs. fuck the elderly and the unemployed. it's their own fault for getting old or getting let go because of our failing economy.

and his tax plan? cut the wealthy and tax the poor. he's all 'oh, don't worry, it's the trickle down effect, y'all! reagan gone off an done it in the eighties!" yeah. that didn't work. the wealthy business men just sat their fat asses down on their free money and used it to manipulate the stock market, inflating it more and more until they decided to pull out when they felt rich enough, leaving their companies, employees and american citizen stock holders out in the cold, while they walk off all nice and rich. it is this conservative tax plan that lead to the great depression and the recession that we are now in. i quote, and this is directed at bush, "it's the economy, stupid."

then there's that whole war thing. to be honest, i don't know what's going on or why we are even over there, i'm not sure that even mr. doubleya himself has an answer to that. all i know is that i can't fucking wait for the day that the air force needs to hold a bake sale to build it's next fighter jet, while our school system is actually adequately supplied for once and can afford to keep all their teachers and keep efficient textbooks and facilities for a decent education.

and for an argument you have heard before: he has no right to ban gay marriage. america was a country built on freedom of speech, choice, thought, and religion. don’t you dare tell me that in america one’s freedom to think talk and express can be taken away because of some religious bitch up in office who doesn’t even have the decency to respect other’s life styles and beliefs. there is no constitutional reason to band gay marriage. look at the civil rights act. that is direct discrimination against a minority, and by the government, no less. that makes me sick.

so ... yeah. please, defend bush. tell me why he is so great and nothing wrong with our dying nation is his fault.


sorry... i'll try to leave you in the best of spirits. um..... i was a pregnant chinese ninja on halloween. don't ask.

much love,

tonies. teh man. he has some of the most beautiful art i have ever seen. totally rocks my socks off, very very very nice guy, too.

Archimer. i have been following her forever, since i was thirteen or fourteen, i belive. she is insanely nice and has one of the most origional styles i've ever seen, a swell writer to. if you love 70's underground british punk culture, you'll love archimer .

hokuto. i don't think there is a sweeter girl alive, she is so very insanely nice, it's like she is a giant bundle of limitless love. or something. she kicks my ass at cg-ing, too.

postcore. also a nice girl! she has a sweet emo rock-meets-squirrels thing going on.

and.. one of those rant/whine things you don't actually care to hear.

art... is gay... i hate it. in advanced composition we are writing collage apps, and a friend was proofing mine for me.. then he just started ripping on me... because mine was all a bunch of crap about being an artist and stuff..i'm applying to milwaukee institute of art and design, so yeah. artist-art school... and my friend was all

"but you're not an artist, you only draw those gay japanese stick people."

and i got pissed and didn't say anything. i've never actually considered myself an artist by any means, just a kid who draws stuff, but still. i have been trying desperately to branch out and try different styles and medias. i had given him a hi-lighter richard simmons in complete colorful realism/expressionism the day before out of the kindness of my heart... and it looked really good, if i say so my self... and he tells me he is better than me and shit because he is a photographer... and all the kind of cool stuff i draw is...

"just a gay rip-off any way, and it's all on lined paper."

ah.shutupshutupshutup. i try. sorry i don't please you.

i finished my interview for the paper, it was fun. the teacher i talked to is awsome. she likes hiking and flying kites, hates television and is an old hippie. i can't wait to write it up tomarrow.

i'm working on a portfolio. it's hard. everything that i like has a very amature feel to it... or is just scrape-art.... like stuff drawn on notebook paper and grocery bags and other... i don't know. useless things.

yeah. i have a friend named phil. i told him was going to get my fill of him. he told me to go away.

schools been alright. i hate my first hour class though. the teacher deserves to get kicke din the face. he kicked me out of class on hte third day (did i tell you this already...?) for giving my friend a picture i drew in study hall while he was lecturing. i had perfect notes and so did she, we weren't disrupting class or passing actual notes... he just turned around and said "get out of my class" and that was that... everything else has been going alright. work is boring. the end.

job! i am almost down at noah's... just three more days. saterday. then next saterday and sunday. i am so happy i could die... and i got a new weekend job at the local antique mall, i worked my first day today and i'll pick it up again in two weeks, so i should have a bit of money through out the school year. this job seems fun... my boss is giving me a copy of photoshop, too. *dances*

speaking of jobs... i have a few freinds who want me to edit their senior portraits once i get photoshop to get rid of nasty shadows and unwanted blemishes.. so more money for greedy me. i feel so rich.

um... how have things been in my life?

ok! kind of.

i got off work today because we have been having terrible weather... that would be a good thing.. but i was actually looking forward to going in. and i need the money. you see, i was going to work with all my favourite work freinds today, in my favorite store and it was going to be fun.. and i was going see the pictures from the kareoke party. no i may not get to. hmm.. this probably made no sense to any of you.

to clarify things: i work in the gifts department at noah's ark (america's largest waterpark) in Wisconsin Dells. the worst town ever. jus a bunch of cheap tourist crap, run by dirty people. any way, there are about forty people in gifts, and five different stores that the employee's can be placed in, so the odds of actually working with your friends in a fun store are very low... that's why today was going to rock. i was going to work with holly, my favourite manager, kelly and sarah, two kids that go to my school and i've gotten to know ofver summer, and amy... amy rocks. she is so funny. but i didn't get to go.

and the kakreoke thing i mentioned. another work thing! it was the end of season gifts department party. i wasn't going to go... but some friends talked me into it. it was fun, i got to know some people in a non-work way and holly pulled me on stage not once... but twice. we 'sang' mmmbop ... the opening song, and wannabe. bleh. we were hot, though... and i got free pizza... so... holly took a lot of pictures and a few with me so i wanted to see them. but i may not get to now because holly is going away to collage.. and i have school starting on the 1st. so... :' (

it was at the rave in the eagle’s ballroom Milwaukee. however you spell that. we (carltown and i) got there early and sat around in a dark red and black bar looking at all the emo kids, feeling a little intimidated by all the image obsessed kids that were massing around us. it immediately became clear that this wasn't just a show for the sake of the bands and the fans... it was a contest to see who had the woolliest wool hat, the oldest shit thrift sweater, and the biggest, heaviest, and most hidden (buttons patches and safety pins, kids) messenger bag. i kind of wished i had dressed more for the occasion, as i was only sporting a set of layered tank tops, a hole ridden pair of old navy blue-hued tilt jeans, and a bit of old hemp jewelry a friend made for me. and my purse.. i guess i should remember that as long as i am elaborating the useless details. the point is i was dressed more for... not being super emo. i don't know. It’s a concert man. why should i ruin my good clothes? yeah... so eventually we were escorted to the ballroom . that consisted of a stage and.. um. an eighties styled ballroom. it had florescent ceiling lights and these neat-o balconies. it looked like it used to have a huge chandelier (sp?) in the middle, but all that was left was a very large oval ceiling. so we sat around and waited for the music to start.

yeah. the first band didn't show. i forget their name... those fuckers.

and.. water was four bucks, more fuckers.

the walkmen were awesome.. their drummer was insane, so much fun to watch. he was practically dancing on top of his drums; it was beautiful. they played a nice set, although i thought it was rather short. a bit of old stuff, a lot of people liked "we've been had," i suppose that was their big hit. any way. it was a nice performance.

between show break!!!!

then........ carly and i shoved our way through the large crowd that was gathering around the stage. we pushed ourselves forward until we couldn't move anymore, that was okay though because we were only about 10 feet away from the corner... the show started soon, i can't remember what they opened with. something from the new album. carly and i were both insanely into the show from the start, jumping up and down screaming every word of every song as we swam tightly together in the sardine mess of the tightly packed dance floor. all was well until float on started playing. then a bunch of nasty, fat, balding, and drunk. very drunk. 35-year-old men found there way towards us. they immediately began jumping right next to us and.. touching us and spilling their beers all over us. they said they couldn't help it and it was the crowd.. but that was kind of a bunch shit.... we yelled at them and they laughed at us.. eventually we got mad and left the conglomerating mass in the pit. it was sad parting, i was only a few feet from isaac, the lead singer... but it would be impossible to enjoy the show with yucky old men trying to molest me an' my g.

i said g. i am so ghetto.

so we went to the back of the room. kind of. middle-front of that back actually. there was a lot more space to move around, no drunken middle-age men, and not so many wannabe teenagers who didn't even know any old music, let alone the stuff from good news. so yeah they played all from that except for dance hall and remember the tetons... they did a really awesomely sweet mix of cowboy dan and black cadillacs.. they played some stuff from the moon and antartica, birds vs. worms.... during this whole ordeal i was jumping up and down screaming along with the songs.. i think i have fainted half way through. i can't be sure... then this lesbian lady started grinding me from behind. she just attacked me and through her leg around me... i guess molestation is inevitable at shows. i ended up dancing with her for a bit. she had to be at least 23... and she had a really slutty tube dress on that was intentionally to tight for her own good... i didn't mind though, in the spirit of things it was kind of beautiful really.... i found out later she wasn't a lesbian.. she just attacked girls. i saw her with her boyfriend (assuming...) doing all but fucking... and somehow that made me happy. high on life i guess. wow i must be a fag. then they tried to end the show. but they actually didn't. after about twenty minutes of shouting they came out for a three-song encore that ended with the never-ending math equation... they never played styrofoam boots.

i left hardly able to walk or talk, reeking terribly of spilt beverages and second hand cigarettes... but in an in... ]]> ~wrong http://wrong.deviantart.com/journal/3002950/ http://wrong.deviantart.com/journal/3002950/ Fri, 30 Jul 2004 10:23:52 PDT

i am in a bitter / bored mood so i am going to delete all my pictures and journals and such when i get back from work.

sorry i haven't been updating at all. i think i hate my computer so i never go on ever... and i havrn't drawn in months unless you count the sketches at art camp in green bay. that was fun-ish. i am going back for figure drawing next year, so if any one is in hte area, you should come, it shall be a gay ol' time.

i will try to comment occassionally, but i don't have all that much freetime anymore between work and freinds, so we will all be lucky if i make it on more than once or twice a week.

un-art news:

modest mouse is on the thiry-first ohmygod. got my tickets the day they went on sale and i am sooooo stolked!! this is going to be such an awsome show, i can't wait. oh yeah, i might get backstage passes!!!! *starts dancing*

end:

yeah. i will get a picture up next month and do some deserved commenting on all you kind folk.

happy birthday me, i'll be seventeen this saterday.

much love and many s, ariel ]]> ~wrong
