I also wanna buy the ring of Aragorn for myself smile Oh, my mom works all the fairs out here in california and she says they're really fun and worth the time and effort. Anyhow, how are you holdin' up? Are you feeling any better? I hope so wink Take it easy.

it's so easy to get sucked into photoshop for hours and hours. you barely notice the time slipping away.

once i had a part-time job dropping the backgrounds from objects using the pen tool for a jewelry retailer. it was a pain in the ass because you tied to complete them as fast as you can but you had to do a decent job and you got paid by the piece so you could see the time slipping away as you toiled on every detail of these gawdy watches adn bracelets. terrible job but i got to work at home. the only benefit.

The Renaissance Festival kicked ass.
I had more fun there that day, then i've had anywhere in a good month. I spent about a hundred bucks on a bunch of cool junk. I knew i couldn't afford it, but hell, that bill i brought was burning a hole in my pocket. They had some pretty good wares in the Armory section, cool swords and what...

Well, yeah, it is happening to me, but it's not bugging me so much. I'm a tough one. Don't want more drama.

I didn't see Mars! I didn't even know it was there to be seen right then!

Heh, the little poem is a couple lines froma song by K's Choice.

I've always wanted to go to a renaissance festival. I think I would be a good ren fairie.

Richard? Wheelchair?....so was he the long-haired guy in the wheelchair in the movie? you met him? WOW!

As terrible as what those two did at Columbine, I find it hard to....to be angry at them. granted I had no personal stake in the tragedy, no family members or friends. But still....focusing all that hate and blame on just those two...well, they were a symptom. If you remember what Matt Stone - creator of South Park - said about that very same school he went to....the social killing grounds, the incredible pressure to be 'in' or 'out'...the utter conviction that if you failed in high school socially, academically, athletically: you failed your entire life.

What's also tragic is that this most likely taught that town and the entire nation absolutely nothing. Instead, the youth got demonised and subject to a subversive witch hunt that shit in the dignity and rights of one of the most repressed and manipulated social groups in the world: teenagers.

*****

You are welcome for the testimonial. I sense a kindred spirit in you and it deserves notice. In fact, you are kind of scary because I can sometimes see myself crystal clear in the challenges I have already faced, and am still facing. We all learn at our own pace, and that pace is perfect, but I want to help nonetheless.

*****

Having a girl...

Yeah...I even gone through that. Look, I know you've heard this before, but really you need to focus on yourself. When you find your own center, you won't have to find a girl. A girl will find you. It's really clich but I have met more than my share of people who have discovered it by will or by accident. I am hardly a poster boy for this clich since I have only begun to find my own center. I am really very very single most of the time. Nor do I lack admirers, but often they reflect my flaws and are not the kind of partner I seek. I will never go so low as to just accept whatever will have me just to not be alone. I have my dignity. I CHOOSE to be single knowing it is the healthier option right now.


I personally don't believe in luck. Not one bit. So you shouldn't either.

And you know what? I'm personally learning to be very OK with not having anyone around. Loneliness is a challenge but it can be dealt with and it's worth finding those ways.

Tell me if I'm repeating myself or you've heard all this before.

You have barely started, so don't worry about finding a path. Just keep your eyes open and try really wild and different things that catch your interest. Heck, if it'll help and it's within means, travel.

When I get done taking a 200 degree shower late at night, I like to go outside right away and let the cool breeze dry me off.

I was driving home today and this song by Stained came on the radio called "so far away". Really hit me pretty hard, so needless to say, when I got home I downloaded it and listened to it all day at work. Some songs say it better than me sometimes.....

I'm sitting here trying to think of something I have to look forward to within the coming month, other than tiresome bouts between me and the antagonist called depression... Lets see.... I hope to be jumping out of a plane again soon. Woohoo for freefalling. The chute ride is pretty extraordinary too. But damn skydiving is pricey. $198.00 for about fifteen minutes of fun. Meh,...

So who is this new penpal from Finland you're referring to? biggrin

You're too sweet with your words..

It's nice to hear how much you'd like to travel to Finland.. In which time of the year you think you'd like to visit this place? Would you like to see the light on a summer's midnight, or experience the cold and dark Santa's land in winter? Autumn and spring are really beautiful here as well, the four seasons in here are really different from each other.. I'm not exactly sure where I would take visitors who come from far away lands, but it depends on what the person wants to see of course. I'm always dreaming about traveling and running away as well.. I need to see many places in Asia (especially Japan, which has been my biggest dream since I was 4 or something), and many countries in Europe that I haven't visited yet: Poland, Czech Republic, Italy, France, Hungary... I want to see the whole world..

Yes you can stay on my boat! There are at least 10 members on the crew now, mostly princesses who want to be sailors.smile I hope we won't irritate you too much.wink We could use a good swordman and fisherman in there. My SG dream boat will be starting its course in mystery seas in a short while, so please join us soon! smile

I'll e-mail you about the penpal thing, ok!
Hope you're enjoying your day..

Hugs!

Oh wow....to read your Journal is like going down memory lane.

Happiness comes when you don't give a shit what people think of you. I'm looking for that too. I think I'm doing well in my progress. Nowadays I react to lame people not with a slump, a sigh and a 'poor me' but with self-propping anger...'you don't know me! you can't say that! you have no fucking idea how cool I really am! I don't need to stick around here and waste my time with you!'
....and I just ignore them and hang out with people that rock.

Hey, I'm sorry I took so long to answer. And thank you, really, really, really thank you for the little dedication you put up for my friend. She's going to get it soon. smile
It's very sweet and it's more than anyone could ask for or expect.

Your doing that Zen archery stuff with the Daikyu right? What was the art called again...?

i never have that problem, quite the opposite actually.
i am bordeline narcoleptic.

tornado sirens are going off, it's eerie out, the stillness is a tell-tale sign of that reality. i grew up in oklahoma tho so this is nothing for me.

thanks for your sweet journal entry LO smile

hope you get some sleep
ingrid:
Oh no, don't tell me you're an insomniac as well.frown
I hope you eventually got some sleep last night.. It's about bedtime in here again already.smile

Ooohh, I would love to have a real quill and ink well for letter-writing as well.. I only have a couple of re-fill ink pens.. And calligraphy pens. I bet your letters are lovely. Yesyes, it would be great to be penpals.biggrin I'm sorry to hear that the girl you know from here only writes about school.. I know a few people of that type as well, and it sometimes feels a bit sad that they don't seem to have anything else in their mind.:/
I'm from the west coast of Finland.. The part where people are the most suspicious, prejudiced and jealous.tongue But don't worry, I'm not like that (or at least I like to believe that I'm not!) and when you visit Finland, I'll surely be your guide and take you to all the fun and beautiful places.. Maybe I can take away a little bit of your nightmares by saying this: It would be VERY hard to get lost in Finland. There's so few towns and cities in here, and the public transportation system is pretty simple. Of course there are the big big forests.. And in fact I sometimes wonder when I will get lost in a forest for the first time in my life.. But it's really mellow in here, you don't have to worry about basically anything, except maybe the people who might seem like they didn't notice you, which is only because most of us are really shy, or just taught not to talk to strangers... So, when will you be traveling here? biggrin
