[oh look...I have a blog.]

hello. don't hate me.

I've read the first halves of many a good book this summer. Perhaps I will finish a book yet--I'm 3/4ths of the way done with Murakami's latest, After Dark. Other good halves I've read include: A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius by Dave Eggers, A Room of One's Own by Virginia Woolf, The Tangerine-Colored Streamline Baby by Tom Wolfe, Cash by Johnny Cash, Revenge of the Lawn by Richard Brautigan, Door Wide Open by Jack Kerouac and Joyce Johnson, The Beautiful and the Damned by F. Scott Fitzgerald, and several newspaper articles.

In other news. I watched all three complete seasons of Arrested Development. I completed my very first paint-by-number. I thrifted hard.

so. there's that. And my love for Justin Bowsher. And my excitement at returning to school if only for another class with Dr. Hurlow and rooming with Jade and living close to Michaela and Katie. And all the wild orgies we'll have at Colin and Sam's duplex once Rhea and I get to know one another better.

Ah...what hell. Ummm. Who is the we? I'm sure there will be the occasional party/get-together. And maybe even a couple stop-bys a week. However, I'm pretty sure orgies, wild or tame, are out.

My Life As: A sort of quirky girl with big dreams and the alarming tendency to say exactly what she thinks (even to her grandmother).

I'm a nineteen year-old aspiring revolutionary. I would love to sit down and discuss life with you over coffee and a cigarette. Those are the kinds of people who you really value in your life. The ones you can discuss current events, lit, and pretentious music with over coffee and cigarettes. My sister is my hero. Most days my brother is my best friend.


My first blog entry, so very long ago: Allright, I have finally put all these insane thoughts in my head onto the internet for billions of psychos to have complete access to. Why? Because after seeing what happened to Kurt's PRIVATE JOURNALS i figure i better just put it all online so my brother can't sell my journals for millions of dollars once i'm dead. Plus ink and paper was getting pretty expensive. I can't promise you that this won't be boring but i am really hoping it isn't. I mean i'm a pretty interesting person and once i've had a White Chocolate Carmel Oreo Chiller from Gloria Jean's i'm ready to start spilling my guts. Once again...YOU'VE BEEN WARNED.


"All the cracks you see can be repaired
and if you start to fall, we will be there
don't drown yourself in all your old regrets
because all the heaviness will steal away your breath
step out of that life
it's nowhere near your time
and don't forget you called it all bullshit
it still is and if you stop giving into it
you will walk away the freest man
shake your head
loosen your grip
raise up your fist
you are the freest man
open your mouth
scream it out loud
forget all your doubt
you are the freest man"
-Tilly and the Wall

Eight things you should know (about me):
  • I am constantly reading. My current obsessions are Haruki Murakami and F. Scott Fitzgerald. In spite of this, I would not yet consider myself well-read. I have yet to tackle the Russians and I forget books very easily.
  • I waffle between co-dependent and fiercly independent.
  • I despise bullshit and cliches. I am impressed by honesty and candor. I do not mean to offend people by the things I say. I respect individuals' opinions (even if I disagree).
  • I'm trying to learn Czech so I can travel to Prague with my grandfather next summer. If I can convince him to go with me. I wish so much that I knew him better.
  • I like vintage and retro stuff. Especially clothing. And cigarette holders/ashtrays from the 60s. I have reached that stage in life where I desperately desire an apartment to decorate and a kitchen to cook in. I can be very domestic when I'm in the mood.
  • I did not think I was very smart until I came to college. I wish I had realized my potential sooner in life.
  • I am idealistic as well as cynically realistic. It makes for quite the internal struggle.
  • I am not emotionally affected by children. I don't dislike them, but babies don't make me all hot and bothered. I don't intend to have children until I am thirty.
