where can you run to escape from yourself?
"It's just usually... it's myself that I wish I could get away from. Seriously, think about this: I have never been anywhere that I haven't been; I've never had a kiss when I wasn't one of the kissers; Y'know, I've never, um, gone to the movies, when I wasn't there in the audience; I've never been out bowling, if I wasn't there, y'know making some ( Read more... ) -
cake or death?
By far the best stand-up comediant I've ever seen in my life (and I've seen plenty, unfortunately only on tv). Eddie Izzard is hilarious!

I'm walking in my own footsteps, once again
Every once in a while I get a nostalgic feeling towards life... let it be a song, a phrase, a certain scene of a movie or even a smell, can bring me back fond memories. The weird thing is, I'm not sure they're memories of the past; it's more like promises of things to come. It's difficult to explain, but I just wanted to let that for the record ( Read more... ) -
up one side and down the other
So, I have been to school for only one week and already I'm neglecting this journal. And it's not cause I haven't had the time to write, it's because I haven't had the energy. Luckily I could change some classes so that I only have to go from Monday through Thursday, which is why now I have plenty of time to write (even though I should be reading ( Read more... ) -
a kind and compassionate act is often its own reward
Since the whole tsunami disaster happened there have been countless organizations getting help to assist the people who were affected. My mother and I already gave some money to the cause. It wasn't much, but it's better than nothing. Now, for my part, I told every person I saw to go to the movies today, because everything that goes in from the ( Read more... ) -
censorship
Until quite recently I was working at a magazine from my school. It was something exhausting but really fun to do, plus I got to meet a lot of talented people. The thing is, I'm planning to go away over the summer and I need money, and since the pay there was... well, nonexistent, I quit. Besides there was the unavoidable issue of censorship that ( Read more... ) -
darts of pleasure
Another school year starts tomorrow. I really don't know what to expect, I know it be hectic and total madness, but I don't care. It's the last year! I had mixed feelings during this holiday though. At the beginning it was pure joy, this perfect bliss because we were finally over with exams and those stupid team projects our school loves to impose ( Read more... ) -
take it easy... but take it!
Who would've thought? I'm an easy-going kind of person on the road! Tell that to all the people who are afraid to jump with me into the passenger seat.

"How little are they? I mean, are they, like, scary little?"
I began reading "Little women" the other night. A friend lent it to me almost 6 years ago, and it wasn't until now that I finally opened it and began reading. The way these March sisters act around each other is disturbing to me, I mean, all their kindness and nice behavior is too much. It is amazing how the world and the way people act around each ( Read more... )
