Things Fall Apart

"If I hold her hand
She says, 'Don't touch!'
If I hold her foot
She says, 'Don't touch!
But when I hold her waist-beads
She pretends not to know."

I'm reading this book in my honors english 2 class,
and I am actually enjoying it. I don't love it, but it's holding my attention. I think it's pretty interesting. Anyway, this evening I have a bit of home work and some cleaning to do so I'm going to get going but I bookmarked this page a couple of nights ago in my reading because I thought this little tid-bit was beautiful.

Talk to you sooon!
xox,

Quick update before bed

I'm typing this up feeling so good. I'm warm and snuggly in my mount holyoke hoodie. Tonight I signed the papers for my deposit and am officially attending the perfect college for me! Things are winding down at school-- feels like I'm inching closer to high school's end with one stupid project deadline at a time. Busting my multigenre out for next monday/tuesday... every day it feels like I learn of another attachment I have to include... Oh well. Trying to decide what to wear to Easter mass this Sunday with my boyfriend's family. (Why don't I own any pastels?!) Played my first match of the tennis season today. (Lost to Amherst hehe no surprises there. But played well! 1-6 to 3-6) Now to read some Survivor before falling ashleeeep! -M

Bridges And Balloons :D

Today, i spray painted my vans again. When i bought them they were black and white checkered. I then spray painted them white, then brown, then green, then one brown and one green, then one white and one brown, now they're both brown. I'm running out of spray paint! I haven't been working on my 10 people project lately, i should be, and diligently at that. Danny came home for the long weekend. I looked at baby pictures. I ate some soup, some PBJs, and drank a lot of cranberry-raspberry juice. I can't wait for Thanksgiving. Maybe, the mom will hook me up with some tofurkey. It was late, and rainy. I was on my Thanksgiving break. I remember the tar smelt good, like it always does after a nice thunderstorm, as i have come to know as the smell of Ozone being produced from lighting. So, i had first given up meat and my mother, being the dear she is, offered to take me to the grocery store to get some necessary items for the week and to buy me some vegetarian delicatessen...

I apologize because I feel like I just cyclically keep neglecting my blog and then posting an update and forgetting about it (and you) all over again. Not much has changed recently, that is, except the weather is totally rock solid righteous slammin' groove thing. I've also begun the familiar, however still arduous process of rearranging and reorganizing my room. I forgot how ceremonial and therapeutic I am about this process. Not only is it a change I need, a little change up to signify spring and to keep things dynamic, but I am moving literally about 5 feet up to my brother's bedroom right above mine in August when he and Kelly move to New Jersey so he can attend Rutger's for his phd/masters (which we're all excited/proud of). I'm also typing this blog on his computer because he's using mine to record music for the album Aeroplane is hopefully gonna have out in May! Yay, bro! In the past couple of weeks and most significantly during Easter I have lear...
