Nicky's wedding day!
The groom is still asleep, the bride is missing (in-law's house?) and I'm sitting around blogging. Merp. We need a big cuppa get-up-and-go. I think I should probably go dry my hair and pack my things. |

The Velvet Underground - Sweet Jane I used to think I wanted my life to feel the way this song does. And now, when some people like to go out dancing, and other people have to work, I just kind of wonder if anyone who ever had a heart really wouldn't turn around and break it.

| | listless | ] | Sometimes when I am having my usual stressed out emotional breakdowns, I need to remember... damn. I love my friends. And even if I'm not happy, I am still happier than I've ever been before. Even when I can't see it. Someone feel free to throw this in my face the next time I am moping (not really, but, you know). |

| | depressed | ] | My dad called today to ask me when my graduation ceremony was, and to tell me how proud he was, and that he was sorry for interrupting my studies to call. I'm sitting around at Our Town, trying to study but mostly just slacking off on Tumblr. I chose not to attend the graduation ceremony. Both he and my mother are heartbroken, as neither of them went to university, but it's too late to apply to go.
In all honesty, the thought of crossing the stage is horrifyingly embarrassing. None of my professors know or care who I am. I have done the bare minimum in all of my classes. I have never turned in anything that I have been proud of. I'm sitting here just feeling miserable about my efforts, ashamed even. I've always been the kind of person who, if I can't do something perfectly, I will simply do nothing at all. I've never felt so horrible about my so-called achievements as I do right now. How many people get the opportunity to attend university, and then waste it entirely? There's not a hope in hell I will ever get into grad school with my grades, meaning I have achieved all I am ever going to achieve.
Essentially, nothing. |

I have volunteered to pose for my friend Colleen who takes photos. We are doing a shoot in Stanley Park in the fog on Saturday afternoon.
Do you want to pose with me? Please? She'd like to do the shoot with 2 people.
No experience necessary (srsly, I have none).
AWESOME. Come play with me in the park.

I fucking hate being in art history because all of the girls are cuter and more fashionable than me and all of the boys are... oh wait. There aren't any boys in art history.
Too late to switch majors? |

| | The Cure | ] | Last night Amelia and I climbed out on the roof to watch the snow. We had Japanese nicotine-free cigarettes and talked about combat boots and dogs and waved at our neighbours as they walked past on the snowy streets. Sitting on the roof is almost like having a tree fort. You can see everything and nobody else can come up there. It was cold but I was content. It's still snowing. I need new boots.
I have a really big late fee at the UBC library so next semester I am going to have to go downtown to take out books to write my papers. Did I mention that I am graduating in May? I think I've told everyone but if not: I am graduating in May. Pretty stoked to become a grown up and get a real job.
I left my kettle on the stove for too long and now it's all burnt. Therefore, I would like a new kettle for Christmas. A red one to match my pots.
I am probably not as happy as I was starting to think I was.
I'm drawing a lot. |

I don't know.
This is the first LiveJournal entry I have ever posted that features the mood "happy". I am trying it out, just to see how it feels. |

Michelle and I had some surprise-sex after the show.
Haven't gotten more than 5 hours of sleep per night in god knows how long.
Just chillin' at home on Sunday in the AM. Hmm.
Still have "Total Eclipse of the Heart" stuck in my head. |

- No, I should be really responsible and buy some groceries that will last a few days.
- Or I could get a bottle of wine.

| | apathetic | ] | I still don't have a costume yet but I'm preparing myself to laugh at everyone who is dressed as the Joker or Sarah Palin. I can't understand how anyone could think this is a more original costume than being a slutt y ______. These vapid media-vampires (media, not politics; anyone who is dressed as Palin is interested in media) will run amok at their parties and bars, exchanging high fives and slurring, ""whyyy so seriousss?" and "you betcha!" at everyone who will listen and marvelling at their own cleverness.
I think I might be a bat. (I may stay in and watch Rocky Horror while eating all of the Tootsie Rolls out of the candy bucket but we'll see...)

Deliberately sparse, exquisitely imperfect. The warmth of this recording can best be described as the delicious burning of a hearth in opposing engagement with the necessary chilling of winter. Every song feels like the emotional climax of that mixtape you made for someone you knew would never hear it.
Can you even remember the last time you felt so wholly desperate?
You can listen here, here, and here. |

Kind of wish it wasn't raining so much. Or I wish I had some shoes without holes.
I have been drawing so much lately. |
