24 | Jem

Is there a heaven a hell
and will I come back
who can tell
Now I can see
what matters to me
it's as clear as crystal
The places I've been
the people I've seen
plans that I made
start to fade
The sun's setting gold
thought I would grow old,
it wasn't to be

My Body Is a Cage | Sara Lov

My body is a cage that keeps me
From dancing with the one I love
But my mind holds the key

You're standing next to me
My mind holds the key

Goodbye Logik | Madsen

Kein Plan, keine Strategie
keine Tricks, keine Philosophie

Goodbye Logik
Everything comes out differently than planned
Goodbye Logik
My heart is beating in my mind

Seasoned Eyes Were Beaming | Sara Lov

And I even had the biggest dream
And I even got it half achieved
I almost hurt them
The ones who tore me

The Wrong Girl | Missy Higgins

But I'm lonely again tonight
I can feel it like a knot in my side
They keep saying this is part of the ride
But I'm not getting stronger

Yet hold me against the light
And do you see any bullet inside?
Wouldn't find one if you magnified
Because you've got the wrong girl

It's All Your Fault | Pink

It's all your fault
You called me beautiful
You turned me out
And now I can't turn back
I hold my breath
Because you were perfect
But I'm running out of air
And it's not fair

The Scientist | Coldplay

I was just guessing
At numbers and figures
Pulling the puzzles apart

Questions of science
Science and progress
Do not speak as loud as my heart

Oh tell me you love me
Come back and haunt me
Oh and I rush to the start

Driving With the Brakes On | Del Amitri

When you're driving with the brakes on
When you're swimming with your boots on,
It's hard to say you love someone
And it's hard to say you don't

Butterflies & Hurricanes | Muse

Fights and battles have begun
Revenge will surely come
Your hard times are ahead

Best, you've got to be the best
You've got to change the world
And use this chance to be heard
Your time is now

Lux Aeterna | Clint Mansell

Instrumental

Bad Romance | Lady Gaga

I want your ugly
I want your disease
I want your everything
As long as it’s free
I want your love

Ssssssso classes start tomorrow. I'm kinda excited, I guess. I really enjoyed Fiona last year, she's kind of the perfect teacher for me in the strangest ways. I can talk to other teachers more easily sometimes, but she knows exactly how to challenge me, which is kind of impressive. I've had teachers point out that I skate by, but she does it in a way that makes it easier for me to do something about it. Now if I can write a conference paper on Star Trek to rival my Wonder Woman paper from last semester, I will be inordinately pleased.

Have a crazy ridic White Rabbit icon from Shore Leave. My nerdom knows no bounds.

William Shatner's my idol. He's also a pretty good writer. Most entertained I've been in quite a while.

I worked so hard to get into this fiction workshop, and I'm actually kind of terrified of it. It's just. How the fuck am I going to produce anything? I lost interest in my story from last year, I can't get the new one I was talking to Tim about for ever to go anywhere, and the few flashes of ideas I get die by the time I grab a pen. Maybe I'm meant to work in a cubical for the rest of my life. I don't see how I could ever write a book. And I'm so deep in debt from SLC, I will never be able to buy a house. I usually don't worry about money shit but there is this constant feeling in my gut and the back of my throat that I could only possibly explain as pure and unadulterated panic before I stomp it down. I don't know what happened, but until this summer, I've known what I was doing with my life. Now I know what it's like, being that directionless college student. It blows.

Brian pointed out something when I told him all about this, which was nothing new, but nice to hear. Something about being so focused on defining ourselves by what we do that we get caught up in it. I've been calling myself a writer since elementary school, and I'm clearly not. I can't even call myself a hack because nothing ever comes of what I do. Wow this is kind of depressing. Fuck it, I need to go shower.

New layout, shit from when I was fifteen is GONE, and - snap - had to opt to a plus account.

This is so old and unused that I had a basic account.

My layout was S1.

Wtf.

Maybe I'll use this to collect icons or something, dunno yet. Likely it'll just fall into disuse again.

Your wise quote is: "Be kind to unkind people,
they probably need it the most" by
Ashleigh Brilliant.
You try to look beyond apperance, try to give
people second chances and are probably very
kind. Understanding is your biggest personality
trait, and thoose you can see through should be
grateful. If they aren't already. You detest
narrow minded people, because they can't see
what's really there. Facades is not your thing
and you strive to always be who you really are.
