So, i managed to completely fuck myself over. No more cali for me. Turns out at least one of my grades is much worse than i thought, so if i dropped out i cant be sure i'd get back in anyplace decent, and so my parents wont let me (and i know i shouldnt) just leave. But fuck. There's a lot that i would have done (or not done, as the case may be) if ( Read more... )

Holy shit. I got a tattoo. I had known for a while that i was going to do it and this was what it was going to be (there's a complicated story behind it. trust me.) but.. i actually did it. at first it was ging to be smaller and on the nape of my neck, but my dear father made a very valid point about semi visible tattoos and the professional world ( Read more... )

I'm moving to California right after Christmas, working, then hopefully transferring to someplace in DC next fall. Anybody who knows my current situation can probably guess at the reasons. Maybe its a huge mistake, i guess i know that it probably is, but at least it'll be something different, and i just cant deal with shit in Asheville for another ( Read more... )

Sorry all, i'm a terrible live journal keeper. lots has changed, existential angst, life plans, etc, and i'm totally not going to write about it. I'm just posting to say this, a few days late:

For those of you who knew what my travel plans were, you will understand why this is a problem. I'm stuck forever in airport purgatory. I'll see you all when i see you. Wish me luck.

Yes. Yes i am. And its fucking awesome. We're here in Saltillo for the Model UN coference, but me and two other people (one of whole speaks fluent spanish!) got here a day early and have been wandering around. We stayed in this cheap little hotel on the outskirts of the city last night cause we were paying for it ourselves, but we're now in the " ( Read more... )

It feels like i only write in this when i'm at home anymore. Probably because honestly this is the only place where i take the time to stop and think and assess everything. School... doesnt feel like home yet. It feels transitional. There are always things going on, and always people around, and time flys by so fast that days dont feel like days ( Read more... )

Is it just me, or do blind contour self portraits seem like a really really bad idea to everybody else too?

uuughh, i'm so sick and so sleepy....

Dear god its been a long time since i've written in this. I'm not going to try to summarize the past month or so, but here's the important stuff briefly:

*College is not nearly as much work as everyone gave the impression it would be. Unfortunately, that makes it much harder to get the amount of work that we are assigned done. It feels like there's ( Read more... )
