dodging mirrors

morning,

me: does this hat look stupid?
lyss:
me: hey! it looks stupid, huh.
lyss: weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeellllllllll ..
me: you know, i think i like it. i think i can pull this off.
lyss: it doesn't really matter, though, if it looks stupid, though, does it?
me: what do you mean?
lyss: it's keeping your head warm, you have less of a chance of getting sick. right?
me: right. yeah! you're right, good point.
lyss: that and .. well. pull it down a little.
me: so it DID look stupid!!
lyss: yeah but i had to make you feel better first.
me: thanks. thanks a lot. i'm taking it off.

“ It’s hard keeping everyone in check. I feel like once I talk to someone, someone else is depressed. I can’t believe this.

Me either, friend. We’ll get through.

alright, girl. you’re a good one - sweet, you are.
i’m going to continue to give you the benefit of the scraps of a doubt i have left.
soon, i’ll be able to trust you completely, dare i say.
and then, lady, we’ll have a giant
conflict of interest.

won’t we?
but isn’t that more fun?

Can you say "Conflict of interest?"

Because I can. Oh, oh, I can..

So I bought a new journal...

jaketc:

This, in kiwi.

I’m in love with it, and the fact it’s made from 100% recycled stuff.

Put in my very first poem,

Pomegranate. But you’ve seen that.

And then a added a little actual pomegranate juice for colour.

Those things are damn hard to open.

But quite yummy.

Moral of the story:

The environment can be better, one pomegranate-stained journal at a time.

I can’t believe you involved yourself with another pomegranate ;P

.. but I did have a dream last night about Dylan McKay. Oh, yum.

Last night, I went upstairs to get a drink of water. I went to my room (no water there..) and went into my bed.

I completely fell asleep. 6:15PM.
My dad woke me up for school today ..
Still. Tired.

I hate being sick.
And I hate being lame enough to sleep at 6:15PM.
Oops, homework. Oops, social plans. Oops, not being three.

I’m still tired. Yuuuuckkkkk.

I made a decision today that I want a tattoo and a nose ring. I’ll wait a couple of year, plan it all out. But really, I’m going to. It’s important to me that I do what I want to express myself and my getting a piercing and a tattoo won’t hurt anyone. It’s an appropriate way to express myself - It’s perfectly alright. I don’t know why I’ve doubted myself before but not now. Today, I had a conversation that made me realize what I want isn’t strange or weird or upsetting or hurtful. I made a decision today that I want a tattoo and a nose ring. Yes,

Even more intelligence:

Me: So I heard he was in a really good mood today.
K: Yeaahhhh.. Hey! I bet he got laid over the weekend.
Me: Really? You think so?
K: Well, I mean, what else could do it? He's never that happy..
Me: I guess we'll have to see how he is in class. If he keeps cracking that smile, though.
---------
K: Did he just .. hand out stuff to us?
Me: Yeah. He totally just gave us presents.
K/Me: He got laid.
K: She's a lucky girl.
Me: Yeah, she really is.
Chels: What are you guys talking about?
Me: Uhm.
K: Uhhhhh.
Me: Uh.
K: Um.
Me: Nothing.
K: Yeah, nothing.

Intelligence:

Chels: You know how in movies, like, you know everything about the characters?
Me: Yeah, most times.
Chels: Well, if you think about it, real life is different.
Me: Than movies? I'd think so.
Chels: No, like, in real life, you don't know really anything about the people you see.
Me: Well, that's true - I guess you don't ever really know.. that's pretty sad, I guess.
Chels: Like, he could be .. OH! You just NEVER KNOW. OHHHHH..

I heard you the first time but I'm really glad you repeated yourself.

I felt a little better after you told me to.
I’ll try to sniffle less and hold my coughs in a little more.
I appreciate you telling me to feel better twice.
I heard you the first time but I’m really glad you repeated yourself.

there’s something that i’m always going to see when i look at you and that’s a future of me. you. our couch. the tv. our movie. and anything in between is left up for negotiation. i’m feeling feisty, ready to put the offer on the table that we should sit on the same piece of furniture next time you come into town. the love seat had you, two summers ago, me, this past august and this January, i want you and me to be there, seat one and two, our movie, the tv, our couch.

i’m feelin’ it.
