4:30 pm - Who's to say what will happen?
Smoke and haze, smoke and haze
Everything is one more pipe dream
Illusions of the ideal
Visions of visions
Pleasant nightmares haunting me long after I wake up

Why can’t anything be real?
I’m tired of slashing through shadows
Nothing holds up
It all falls away in an instant
A pinpricked water balloon
Suspended in the air
Watching your reflection hit the ground in every droplet

This is the price we pay for fantasy
For wishing on stray lashes
We dream and disconnect

current mood: trepidatious

8:11 pm - This is for you
Thank you for finding me again
for inspiring me anew.
You were stressed, but transformed
your many faces shining, sparkling
like rain
Despite your newly formed exterior, I can still see your soft youth
your excitement at life’s simple pleasures
An ocean view
Smooth smoke
Melody
And the look of words on the page and their sound in your ear
It’s been years since you took me to that place and now, thousands of miles away
I am there again
The trees and birds may be gone
But the view is the same
And though it may be foggy
Clouds rolling
down over water
up over hills
I can still see you clearly
Thank you, friend
Thank you, muse

current mood: anxious

12:37 am - It's a start
Give in to it.
Let it surround you.
Feel your hair prick up as it
flows around you.
Let it become you.
Hear its pulse.
Ba-dump
Ba-dump
Ba-dump
Ba-dump
It is your pulse.
Let it merge with you.
Replace your plasma with quarter notes
your platelets eighths and sixteenths.
Feel yourself rising.
your feet lifting
Let your eyes lie to you
you don’t need to see.
The sounds are enough.
Close your eyes and feel her
floating with you.
Let it beat your eardrums down.
You don’t need them.
Listen with your body.

He sits in the room alone. It's way too big now. What comfortably housed many seems daunting, that much more space to be left empty, taunting and teasing him. Scattered remains of better times litter the floor like wounded soldiers on the battlefield, every one of them evoking memories of livelier events. The bed in the corner, with all its crumpled sheets, empty again, devoid of the passion it once held. Unlike the room, it had been much too small to fit another within its confines, but he stirs at night, reaching out and feeling the lack of a figure curled up next to him, the lack of the figure's warmth spreading to and through his body like a perfume, intoxicating his sense of touch. Looking out the window he expects to see that familiar blue stretch on into its familiar forever, but instead sees only the enveloping clouds. Their dirty white is the perfect shade to match the dirty white of his walls, and it merely creates an extension of his prison, and rather than seeing that little blue bit of hope on the outside of his emptiness, there is only more space to fill.

9:48 am - So this is the end...
Finally, the time has come.  The time to leave this place, and while I'm quite sad about all of the people who will no longer be a constant part of my life, I couldn't be happier to finally be getting out of Miramonte and Orinda.  15 years is long enough.  Goodbye.

2:32 pm - So many memories gone...
So, about a month ago, I ran out of room on my hard drive.  I decided to export a bunch of materials onto DVDs.  On one of these DVDs were all of my pictures.  About 2 gigs of pictures.  And now I can't find it.  I'm extremely upset.  So I guess what I'm getting at is, does anybody have any pictures of me they can share for my memory board?

EDIT:  Hooray! My DVD has been found, much to my relief.  Pictures are still welcome, as I am a huge attention whore as you all know.

current mood: distressed

7:05 pm - I've got sunshine on a cloudy day

Today was a really good day.  I just felt that needed to be said.

Today we rented a car and went off to visit Sarah Lawrence and Bard.  I was coping with not going there pretty well; I know I would be perfectly happy at UC Santa Cruz, but both of these schools are amazing.  The Sarah Lawrence curriculum is phenomenal, and works a lot like how WISE does.  In terms of the campus, it's quite nice; small, about the size of Campo, but kinda cozy.  Bard on the other hand, is huge.   Some 600 acres owned by the school, in addition to an incredible amount of classes in various fields of study, just about all of which I love.  I guess all I can do now is wait.  Sarah Lawrence said they had about 600 kids on the waitlist, which is probably the amount they admit, considering there's about 350 students in each class.  Bard has about 400 on their waitlist, twice as many as last year's, from which they took about 20.  The odds do not appear to be in my favor.  Anyways, I get home tomorrow, albeit around 11 at night.  I'm gonna have to get out somewhere, although my dad insists otherwise, but quite frankly, I don't think I can deal with being in close proximity with him any longer.  On a happier note, on the way back to Manhattan from Bard, we stopped at the Culinary Institute of America for dinner.  It was one of the best meals I have ever had, and everybody working there, who were all students enrolled at the school, was incredibly friendly.  I guess I'll have some pictures up later, as I'm feeling rather lazy and don't feel like choosing which ones to upload, or photoshopping those that need tweaking.  So yeah.  Finally, I am coming home.

current mood: tired

Being away from home is not healthy for me.  And my dad is being an asshole.  I am so ready to be back home.

On another note, we went to a restaurant today, and it was possibly the most jewish establishment I have ever seen.  Some quotes from my dad:
(Commenting on the large amount of jewish patrons) "You know what's great about being in places like this?  You know no one is out to get you."

"Do you remember Jared when he was blond?  I mean, he was really blond, like nazi blond."

My dad is a fucking lunatic, by the way.

current mood: homesick

10:08 pm - A new relationship is about to blossom. You will be blessed.
Well, I leave for New York tomorrow morning.  My flight leaves at eight, meaning I have to get up somewhere around five.  Hella lame.  I'll miss you all.  Hopefully I'll have wireless internet in the hotel room.  I'll have my cell phone with me, but I doubt I'll be able to use it.  My god, a week without any contact from home.  I don't know if I'm gonna make it.

And don't bitch about college.

current mood: exhausted
