So...
I don’t think I’m being biased when I say my friends are the most beautiful, magnificent ladies anyone could ever come across.
THIS COMPOST
by Walt Whitman 1819-1892
Something startles me where I thought I was safest, I withdraw from the still woods I loved, I will not go now on the pastures to walk, I will not strip the clothes from my body to meet my lover the sea, I will not touch my flesh to the earth as to other flesh to renew me.
O how can it be that the ground itself does not sicken? How can you be alive you growths of...
September 2010-May 2011
Goodbye, hairy legs. Finally shaved. I feel like a woman again.
TMI?
Go Mark Strand!

In a field I am the absence of field. This is always the case. Wherever I am I am what is missing When I walk I part the air and always the air moves in to fill the spaces where my body’s been We all have reasons for moving I move to keep things whole.
Psalm 50&51
Holy Spirit, I love you and never want to be away from You. That’s why I’m so happy I’ll be with You forever in heaven! But do I really love Your presence so much to not want to waste even a day here without You even if I’m going to be with You forever? Wouldn’t I not want to waste even a day here even if I’m going to be with You forever, if I really love You...
Please, no
If I woke up after graduation and this were all a dream and I were still in high school. I don’t know what I’d do.
BUT THAT’S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN BECAUSE IT’S NOT A DREAM AND I AM GRADUATING (AND GOING TO COLLEGE WHOO!) AND I AM NEVER GOING TO BE A HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT EVER AGAIN WHEE! Going to bed at 9pm with this happy thought, mmm.
Summer
There are a lot of things I want to do. Obviously. It’s the summer before I start college.
One thing that’s been on my mind more frequently is having time to draw. I can’t wait to walk around somewhere, sit, pull out a sketchbook and pencil, and just draw. I haven’t drawn live people, or anything, really, in too long.
I reallyreallyreally miss figure drawing. I think...

Drama Queen
Sometimes, why are your parents’ voices the last thing you want to be hearing?
When I feel like I’m suffocating at home (I’m being dramatic, I know), I remind myself that I’ll miss and yearn for this in a few months.
But sometimes…I..cannot..wait..to leave..
I’m an ungrateful little child. GOD, CONTINUE TO MOLD MY HEART. Let’s start with me answering...
Late Days
I tend to wake up earlier than usual on most banking days and late days which seems pretty backwards, but I love calm, easy-going, not rushed mornings.
This morning, I woke up at 6, plugged my dead itouch in the charger, took a shower, was disappointed to come back to a not charging itouch, plugged the itouch in again, slowly got ready, listened to Mumford and Sons while my hair dried, went to...
I take it back!
Being a student is the best! I get the longest breaks and vacations, random 3-day weekends, random come to school later than usual days, random end school earlier than usual days, etc. (The only thing that stings a little is how much I have to pay to be a student after high school. But I can’t really put a price on an experience, a professor, a class, a person I meet. And maybe I’ll...
Wow!
I need a job! It hits me harder and harder just how much college costs.
When people complain about having work…the rage..
(It’s different when there are complaints about being exhausted, mean bosses, mean co-workers, etc.)
But…”F*CK WORK. FRIDAY 3-730? UGH F*CK” I’m sorry. You hate it? Quit. Then, give it to me. Or the 234234 other people trying to pay rent...
Storytime!
If summer didn’t mean no school… If summer nights didn’t exist…
I think my weather wish would be no summer. Ohp. Alliteration. Heh.
So not that you care, but here’s some storytime. Get ready for some awesome English.
Story #1: AP English Literature and Composition Exam
I arrive at 7:31? 7:32? In the car ride, I daydream about everyone in my testing room having to...
On Celebrating Death
deadpresidents:
(Quite a few people have asked me to post this so that they can reblog it, so here it is)
Anonymous asked: Do you think that Americans are just celebrating bin Laden’s death or are they rejoicing over something more? Because it definitely feels like we are celebrating something more than a killing. Also, the people saying they are ashamed of us for being happy… I don’t know....
Boys?
Personally, for now, they suck. Minus a few.
Girls? HEAD-TO THE-ACHE. Minus less than a few.
Our Generation
We just never disappoint when it comes to disappointment! Haha, I’m unintelligent and cheesy. Unfortunate combination.
Anyway, the disappointment, the sadness, the whyarewe frustration. Makes me hope in God all the more. Makes me joyful to know the Prince of Peace all the more. Makes me muy desperate for Jesus’ full glory to be shown all the more.
My thoughts are like chicken poop in...
Patriotism
It weirds me out a lot of the time. Not always, but more than I’d think it would.
I’ll only be happy when someone dies if he or she goes to heaven. Terrorist or not.
