so ray and i spent the whole day thursday making costumes (do to our need for more creative projects while waiting for classes to begin) for what was to be an "animal" themed party (something i was very excited about) but also signe's going away party (dampening the night a bit). anyway, when we arrived all were dressed in normal attire, though two ( Read more... )

i now have a bright red belly (that still feels warm when i rest my hands on it), but a boo-tay white as snow (or olive as a 4th generation italian girl). i can't sit comfortably in most positions at the moment after renewing the one bond (besides music) i have with my father, using muscles i haven't used in years. i feel the more perfect pigskin ( Read more... )

it has recently occurred to me how much i miss swingsets. mostly the particular set that was ripped from my favorite hill behind my old highschool, but really, any will do. my daily bike rides can almost replace, but somehow going fast will never be like going high and pavement will never top tree branches. it's more difficult to wear a skirt when ( Read more... )

there must have been hundreds of thousands of bras in that store and i still couldn't quite find one i liked. why does everyone want boobs that look like they are ready to attack? it kinda freaks me out. in the end i just go for this one or that one and find that it's actually for pre-teens and there's no way even the XL's will fit. thank god this ( Read more... )

it is so easy to fall in love. lately i've been flying everywhere ( Read more... )

bang bang bang in my brain brain brain
bang bang bang in the morning
tap tap tap no more nap nap nap
tap tap tap in the morning
drill drill drill gonna KILL KILL KILL
those fucking workmen this morning.

i lept a grande jetter out my front door this morning, or rather, a piccolo jetter, as i get a bit self concious when ballet sneeks its way back into my bones. (it's been about a year since i did a successful split). I managed a friendly "ciao" to the workmen outside rather than the usual HURL...after all they are finally REMOVING THE SCAFFOLDING ( Read more... )

a tiny italian girl approached me today on the water near San Marco. she wore hot pink tights. she told me she liked my painting. i told her i liked her tights. she told me she was starting her first year of school. i told her i would soon finish my last. she said she would start to learn english soon, while i have been practicing my italian for a ( Read more... )
