The sky is blue
and all the leaves are green
The air's as warm as a baked Potato
I think you know exactly what I mean
When I say it's a spadoinkle day!
Went kyaking today. First time this season! It was very nice. I love being out on the water. It's so peaceful and exciting and everything all at once. I'd do it everyday if I could.
Also did some cooking with Ian. That was fun.
Oh, I got a new camera!! It's so nice! It's a Kodak Easyshare (I forget what exact model). It's got a 10x optical zoom and 4 megs. It also has a video record function. It makes me extreemly excited to get started on my summer research. I literally stay up at night just thinking about this project. I can't wait!
Despite an overall good day, I'm feeling down tonight. I think that boredom and disalusionment have set in. That's what tends to happen when I come home. I'm ok being here, but I'm pretty sure I'll be ready to leave when the time comes.
I need to get laid...

I wasn't going to post today, but I feel that I must. I actually kind of like not having cable, because it forces me to watch PBS. I must admit that I really love PBS a lot.
I just got done watching Guerrilla: the taking of Patti Herst . It is a very well done documentary on the Symbian Liberation Army of the 1970's. It's really facinating stuff, that I never knew ANYTHING about. The documentary uses a lot of actual news footage, and it's just amazing. There was a hardcore shootout that was actually captured on live news, the first time anything like that was done live. It's very facinating. And I feel like the show doesn't portray the SLA as complete nutballs. Of course I believe they were extreemists. I don't think Comunisim works, no matter how nice it sounds in theory it never works in the real world. And I don't believe in their use of violence. In fact, they weren't a 'good' radical group. But I think it's good that the film makes some sort of attempt to show where they were comming from, so you understand the situation and the series of events better. I think it's amazing the things they don't teach you in school. So my advice for the day...watch this documentary, and watch more PBS. You'll be suprised at what you don't know.

Been a busy girl this week. Mostly hangin out with people. Saw Star Wars on friday night. It was very good, certainly did not disappoint. Of course, I don't think it can compare to the origional trilogy, but it definantly comes close. My major qualms with the movie was the over use of CGI. I mean, there are plenty of things that could have been done using real props and people. This is something hollywood (and Geroge Lucas in particular) doesn't seem to realize. CGI is overratted, and is most effective when used sparingly. I also took issue with some of the dialogue ("you're breaking my heart"?! come on...show it don't say it, that's the first thing we learned in screenwriting). And of course, some of Hayden Christenson's acting could use help, but it actually was probably his best performance. Anyway, it was a good flick, and i had fun.
Life has been interesting. I'm very glad to be home.

I'm home, yay! I got home sunday afternoon, hung out with Ian, Rob and Matt all night. Today I just kinda bumbed around BG. The gaming store closed, that kinda sucks.
Just in case you need another reason to love South Park, here is an interesting article about the Libertarian themes of the show. The article is written by a somewhat conservative guy, so some things are kind of biased, but the information in the article is cool. I always thought South Park was cool because it really goes against Republicans AND Democrats, it just points out bullshit wherever it may be. So I'm not very suprised to learn Trey Parker is a self-proclaimed Libertarian.
that's it for now. Keep on rockin' in the free world.

so, it is saturday night, and i am still at denison. To make a long story short, res-life sucks my ass, and therefore i was homeless for most of this week until today. I basically just slept around (haha) on different couches every night. I was a hobo. It was actually kinda fun. This week has been plesantly hedonistic. I got to hang out with some senior peoples and drink a lot everyday, so all in all it was nice. But I'm ready to go home now. I moved all my stuff into my summer housing today. Tomorrow I'll help jenna move her stuff. Hopefully I'll be on the road around 3, so I'll be home around 5 or 6. I'd like to meet up with people, but i might just crash and sleep till monday, I could really use the rest. But either way, I promise I'll be home soon.

Rocky Horror captures my sentiments perfectly once again.
On the day I went away
Goodbye Was all I had to say
Now I
I want to come again and stay
Oh my
Smile, and that will mean I may
'Cause I've seen blue skies
Through the tears in my eyes
And I realize I'm going home
I'm going home
Everywhere, it's been the same
Feeling
Like I'm outside in the rain
Wheeling
Free to try and find a game
Dealing
Cards for sorrow
Cards for pain
'Cause I've seen blue skies
Through the tears in my eyes
And I realize I'm going home
I'm going home
I'm going home
I'm going home
*well...on saturday that is
On the day I went away
Goodbye Was all I had to say
Now I
I want to come again and stay
Oh my

Well, this week has been shittastic. But it's almost over. And for all the complaining i've done in the past few weeks, it's been a pretty awsome year. I know I say this all the time, but I have seriously changed over the last year. I've experienced so many new things, I've seriously altered my point of view on so many things. This past year has been so different from anything else. And over all, it's been good. I've become less angsty, more laid back, more confidant. My social life this year went from almost non-existant to rather interesting. I've met people I'll remember for the rest of my life, and I've had some awsome times that I'll never forget. Of course, there were some shitty things that happened, but I think I learned from them. I doubt I'd change much if I could go back and do it again.
But I'm ready to go home now. I'm tired of denison, and in all honesty, there's a tad too much drama in my life right now. It will be nice to go home and get away from it and just relax. I miss my friends from home, and I can't wait to see them all again. But ya know something...I'm kinda scared to go home. I mean, I've changed so much...I just don't want to disappoint anyone.

I want to go home. For a while I just thought I wanted the semester to be over. But as it turns out, I really just want to go home. I was really psyched for senior week, and I still kinda am, but what I really want is to be home. It's weird, cause I usually don't get homesick, and I'm sure that after being there for a few weeks I'll be ready to come back. But right now, I just want to be home, in my own bed, with my family, with my old friends. Ian comes home this friday, and I just really really want to see him again. Honestly, knowing that he's going to be back makes me not want to stay the extra few days for senior week. But, I probably will end up staying, even if only for Mandy. She's been a close friend these past 2 years, and I want to spend time with her before she graduates.
I want it to be over. I want the work to be done. I want to go home. I want to see my family. I want to see my friends. I want to see Ian. I want to see my kitties and my turtle. I don't want to be here anymore. I don't want to write this script. I don't want to edit my film. I don't want to study for astronomy. I am so physically and psychologally tired. I'm tired of Denison.
This is the first I've cried in 6 months...

Ok, Let's try this again...fuckin' server keeps being bitchy. Normally I'd say fuck it and not try posting again, but I've got pictures to share with ya'll today!!
So last night I made a Mother's Day card while I was very high. These were the results:
(front)
(Inside bottom...the thing in the corner was supposed to be a fairy)
(Inside top...the guy was supposed to be Michael J. Fox after he falls out of the Delorian in Back to the Future (we watched all 3 last night). But his arm turned out wanky...and yes, that is kermit)
(back)
Although I kinda like it, I realized this morning that I clearly cannot give this to my mother. So while working in the print room today I decided to make a real card for her. Here's how it turned out (all the images are etchings):
(front outside...lift the elephant to see....)
(front inside flap)
(Inside...this one turned out kinda crappy)
So that's my card. Don't judge, I made the entire thing in about 3 hours.
As long as I'm posting pics, here's what my hair now looks like:
Ain't I smokin' hott?!
ok, off to work and stuff. Caio!
