The Fountainhead

Sometimes I feel lost and apathetic and worthless and fun-less. But then a little voice sneaks up in my head and says "girl, quitcho whinin... you don't know how good you got it."

Then I smile and think about fucking cute ferrets.




Whoever thought fresh, luscious dirt in a Soho loft could be so intriguing? Well, it intrigues me at least... think of how humid it would be in there (they water it)




I am going to go on a road trip to Utah to see this as soon as I possibly can. (You have to follow incredibly specific direction and then ditch your car to walk the rest of the way)




Two of my favorite landscapes.


It has been quite a while since I last updated (or should I say, since Laura updated for me), so I decided to take advantage of the three dead hours I had working in the ARC in McCollum to post some pictures that make me happy (and further prove that I am an art slut).
Here are some updates since my last real update:
- my hair is nine inches shorter
-i'm over partying (save red wine at best friends' engagement parties)
-my best friend is engaged!
-i had my first "gig"
- i have had 2 pomegranates in the past week
-i will start painting again after i buy supplies with the extra $$ i'll make over Thanksgiving break
-i have realized that having an apartment that (for the most part) only you occupy is lonely and unhealthy.
-i saw ani difranco sing and speak, then died and went to heaven
-my hideously dirty car is clean
-i am confident

I kicked college's ass this semester.

An 'A' on my Art History paper definitely means I deserve this trip. Yeeeaah for best friends and tearing up NYC.

can't afford me, though. My name is Saturn,

- Nature

"Where we'll go, baby, I don't know. We should just let Nature run the show."

Even though things may seem a bit perscrubled in my life right now, I think I'm doing a damn good job keeping up with real-life stuff. Not to say that I wouldn't love to just run around all day talking, playing, conselling, cuddling, eating and looking at art books.... but I think I've got a pretty nice balance going. That also may be because I stay up until 1 or 2am every night now.

I am really excited to start singing with Joe and Brendan again. I was always kindof half-assed about it before, but it was only because I didn't think I was good enough. Well, now I'll be in Olathe every Saturday practicing; hoping to get a gig eventually.

I cannot wait to see Alyssa and Cale for Cale's birthday night at Dave and Buster's. Missing people in Kansas City or Topeka or Salina is hard, and it is so true that living in the dorms just sucks you in. I mean, we all get out to go to class and run around occasionally... but most of the time it feels like McCollum owns your soul. I'm glad I chose to live in the dorms this year, but honestly... I'm ready to get out.

This cooped up, gloomy feeling came about the time it always does... my soul gets all antsy for spring. February has just been very tricky this year. End of February/beginning of March is about the time when school gets old, and thoughts of summer start to take over my brain.

Shit, maybe I'm just stressed out. Maybe I'm lonely. Maybe the weather is fucking with my emotions. Maybe I need some more chocolate covered almonds and a strong drink.

take time.

 

           

           

 

and the bell sounds
and the lights flash
and there's all these questions milling around
and there's no time to ask
