Update

Well some people try to pick up girls and get called assholes. this never happened to Pablo Picasso. he could walk down your street and girls could not resist his stare and so Pablo Picasso was never called an asshole.

I am so down for this show!

so the first week finally petered out & once I actually started the Aeneid, I liked it. a lot. Hopefully the Romans can fill up the holes that the Greeks left - I still will not succumb to Roman names! I'll shut up. no i won't. I'm so disappointed that we're doing Hamlet (A-Level Hamlet anyone?) & Pride and prejudice because both texts will haunt me for life! Autobiography of Alice b. Toklas is really good & Albert Maysles is talking at Columbia at the end of this month. I have a few Grey Gardens questions to shoot his way.

I also sent in my WBAR app and, if I get it, my show will be called 'The Train Out To Montauk' (yes, eternal sunshine) and I will be playing 'world' music, which just means it's from all over and mostly from new york :) ... i like the ny music scene. a lot.

Tomorrow I get my credit card so I can buy a lomo & pay for my mandolin (i am currently a month and 9 days late). I am also a littled scared about turning 19 because it means i will soon be 20 although 19 feels grown up in a young girl kind of way. The world is my oyster with the pearl slowly slipping. Before I turn 19 in less than a month I need to cut my hair really short, lose some weight, and clip my teeth with nail clippers because regina thinks it's nasty.

I am having a gelatin crisis. today I had a gummi bear craving so I got some & as I chewed and chewed I kept thinking to myself: ge-la-tin! ge-la-tin! boiled connective tissues! hypocrite! okay. so I will finish this bag but I will not be a fairweather jew vegetarian & i will not eat gelatin, which is fine since my rice krispies addiction died. HOWEVER! did you know that gelatin is used in photograph film + paper? conundrum!

nevertheless, it looks like everything is going great even though Bill O'Reilly was only on for like 5 seconds & was particularly unentertaining. Yeah. So now I'm actually taking a creative writing class and despite culpa's opinion my teacher actually seems really cool BUT now that I need pent up frustration & problems with the world, my life is actually going excellently great. this means i'll start writing political/social-observances poems and god knows I hate it when I do that.

We all need the longing. it gave us the world.

I get to keep a dream diary & write a poem about it! I love my school.
& I am going to an anti-war protest in DC!



oh and IT FUCKING SNOWED TODAY! like for shizz. i like, i like. and it's not THAT cold :)
