I have lived four lives. I know this because each time I have come out with different colored eyes. What happens when I run out of colors, I do not know. But, in this life, my eyes are brown, like the earth that I am tied to, but it was not always so.

I have been feeling like the knot in muscles after the sun has set; I have nothing of consequence

your words are like silk, jessica.

and greg is an idiot and i hate him.

[oceanfloors]

heehee, that means a lot to me, kelli. you-have-no-idea.

oh god i hate him sometimes too, he is obnoxious and annoying and i just want to punch him in the face, but i am stuck sitting next to him in programming. damn creative writers!! ;]

[melaverdebella]

hahaha you really should punch him in the face. i've always wanted to witness someone punch a jerk in the face over something like poetry or art. :)

[oceanfloors]

you are just saying that to make me laugh! you should have known me last year, i punched a girl in the face for stealing my birthday cake.

[oceanfloors]

no, no, that was jamere who called me Mulan. he avoids me now.. i wonder why, hehehe.

oh god it is, i want to delete it but they took me off mods, so i am powerless. but never fear, i will make a better community and shame them into something or another.

have you started open boat yet? i have my notes with me so i will post them on ascetics soon.

and lindsay, i hope you are not upset with me. i saw that you deleted one comment but i just wanted to let you know i was not avoiding you, but i was just trying to think of how to say what i wanted to say, and what that is, i'm still unsure.

[oceanfloors]

I am always wanting to listen to the things you have to say to me. I want to move and leave the South so badly, because I've always imagined racism is the worst in the South, but that is probably a misconception.
(I will eagerly wait for an e-mail.)

I will make another community tonight, as soon as I think of a name (any suggestions?) Closed membership is a yes yes yes.

I can relate so much to this post. So much.

(In response to your response to Colette), being a minority in a Southern state is, indeed, hell (I'm a Korean girl living in Georgia). I cannot wait to leave.
And tell this Greg that all perverts are geniuses.

[oceanfloors]

I always forget you're Korean. I'm Chinese, =] God, the South is so horrible sometimes, you know? I never got to be a Southern Belle with all of my friends because my skin is the wrong color, so is my hair.

It's comforting to know someone else relates.

We are practically neighbors, me, in Alabama.

[yeuxfumeux]

The prerequisites for being a Southern Belle seem to be: blonde hair, blue eyes, and a "cute" Southern accent. I never strove to be a Southern belle because I refuse to conform to a group that has set prerequisites. Although raised in the South, I have been told that I have a neutral accent and my political standing is opposite of 95% of the population.

Where in Alabama are you? I've made some short trips to Alabama recently to visit a friend in Auburn.

[oceanfloors]

I'm in Birmingham, which is like 2 hours away from Auburn. Well, I go to school here but I live in Tuscaloosa (where the University of Alabama is, maybe you've seen their football games? haha!) I always wanted to be a Southern Belle, probably because I know I cannot and that makes it all the more worth wanting to me, but if I were blonde & blue eyed, I probably wouldn't want to, you know?

Oh God, the politics! My school is very liberal & open minded so here I fit in with about 99% of the school. It's nice.

Better to be a genius-pervert than an illiterate wanker.
I would have punched him. I can get very defensive about Bukowski.

Where is the first part of this post from, the big in italics?

I joined/requested to join your community. I'm in thosegypsies too - some of the posts are stunning, some are pointless, so I have never posted because I don't know what I would say.

[oceanfloors]

Haha, agreed. I am so defensive about my favorites.

The first part? Heehee, it's from me, of course.

You're in my community now! I'm not quite sure what's going to happen there, but I'll figure it out. Thosegypsies is going down, you should have seen it a long time ago, God, those were the days when everyone was amazing.

[ofbirdsandwires]

I know you said that you didn't want this journal filled with comments about how talented you are, but darling, that first part is exquisite. I don't think you even know.

[oceanfloors]

rachael, you make me sound very vain!! as if i think i am wonderfully talented. the first part is the beginning of something in my head, i'm not sure where it's going, but we'll see, i guess.
