On a rather sentimental note...

[mariad214]

I feel odd. a strange mix of relief because I found an apartment in Montrael and finally got something I can call "my home" again. I am tired of floating around the world without roots in one place. My mother told me I should buy some paints today and do some painting... So I bought a watercolor set even though i have one already but left it in

Hey there! It's been a while since we touched base. Moving to Montreal, very cool. Montreal is not a long drive from where I am - I could maybe go visit you one day?

And I know how you feel re: your ex. Things have sort of disintegrated with the girl I've been dating, and it's not really her fault she never has any free time, but it sucks anyway.

Hey! We leave for new lives in faraway places on the same day! A national holiday if I do say so myself!

[mariad214]

A national Holiday indeed... but in which nation ;).
where are you going Jimmy? and what are you doing? And how has your summer been?

[jimbotron3030]

I'm moving away from you, that's for sure!

It's true, too, I'm moving down south to Baton Rouge, Louisiana. I got a residency in LSU's ceramics program.

Summer's been good, if a little boring, I've kind of been a hermit for a few months. But I guess that's ok.

Your journal would make it sound like you've had quite a tumultuous post-grad lifestyle. I'm glad to hear that you are moving to a place that makes you happy. I wish you all the best, and we should probably keep in touch.

Well i've lived out of a suitecase for basically more than 3 months... I am tired of it. lol
Congratulations to the residency! that sounds fantastic! I btw saw your portfolio on facebook, very impressive jimmy.
How long are you going to be in Louisiana for? that is definitely moreso the opposite direction of my destination.
We'll basically switch places.. you'll come north to south, and i'll be leaving the southern states behind going up north.
i've been graving the hermit life but it hasnt been happening as planned. And I doubt even more so that it will happen once i am in Montreal. lol.
We'll definitely keep in touch. Please keep me updated with your work :) I would love to see what happens to it in Louisiana

One thing to say to you:

You are livin' the dream...

[mariad214]

[mariad214]
