Lazy Mornings

I just lit a kerosene lamp. I love real firelight, it's so soothing and make me feel like a Victorian lady. I can see that lovely flame dancing and throwing shadows on my purple walls. Even though it’s bright outside, my curtains are heavy enough to give me a shady sanctuary. It’s not that I don’t like the sun. I love the sun! It’s just that I woke up, what seems like mere moments ago... my eyes are still adjusting.
Part of me, the mindful part feels like a Victorian lady, but my physical self is nice and warm in the real world, sitting on my vent. That’s right, my vent. The warm rush of heat is surrounding me right now, and the metal guarding feels just right. It’s not cold like it is when I just turn it on, and it doesn’t burn like it’s been on for hours. It is however doing that chilly air thing, so I know it is about to turn off in a few moments. *Tear*
I feel so silly because I’m trying to touch type this whole thing. Yan inspired me to learn… he’s an insane maniac on the keyboard. I wonder if being a good piano player makes it easier to type… my mom loves the piano, and she can type like a medium maniac. I’m so funny when I type normally because some words I just pick out, and others I have a system for… Like my name. I have a system for that word. And it actually uses the same fingers that I would use if I were touch-typing. I’m close but I have to break some habits first. Like the fact that my fingers need to get along and sign a treaty or something… they both are fighting to cross over to the opposite hand’s keys and steal those letters. Naughty fingers.
Lilith, I just called your house but you weren’t there. How sad. I had this whole thing that I wanted to do. We would go to Tele and we would take the 7, but we would make sure to get on at different stops. Who ever got on first would go to the back and start reading, or look busy. Who ever got on second would slowly walk down the isle, making it as if they weren’t expecting the other. Then we would notice eachother, and go into a whole thing about how it’s been years, and what a coincidence it was, and how we never expected to see each other after so-and-so happened. I so feel like a random roll play right now.

YES!! Why couldn't we have done that?! Oh, right, cause I was at some girl's house talking about heterosexism. Gr. Although, pizza!
we could have brought pizza on the bus with us if we wanted to. then we could have had the best of both worlds. :)
We could have! But then I'd get a REALLY bad grade on my project... and I can't afford that. The last grade I got on a REALLY important assignment was a D- on the research paper. Erp. I think I'm gonna get kicked out of this school.
...they cant kick you out can they? well, either way it was probably a good thing that you went and worked your cute butt off. i mean a good grade is a good grade, right? plus you got a good look at that girls house, so when you DO decide to go rob it, you will know the layout:)
Oh BTW, lilith.
Im doing a teen life project for photography... i think it's going to be about leaving... i'm going to take pictures of my friends and ask them what leaving means to them. it could be anything, devorce, emotional change... i'm going to talk about college, thats mine... but it could be someone's too. so each person that i take a portrait of gets to write something... explaining their take on "leaving"
can i do a portrait of you?
Yes, but you're going to get some really depressing shit. :D
And YES, they can kick you out. And I haven't worked my cute butt off, otherwise I wouldn't be worrying. I'd be getting B's and higher if I did the homework. Eh. But I do have a C in bio, and I've been getting B's on the French tests, so I hope I pass. My birthday resolution is going to be to GET MY FRICKING HOMEWORK DONE!! ;)
That’s a good resolution. I dunno what mine will be yet...
Hey, can you have anything other than a birthday resolution? I mean that’s what it is for you. For me it's just a plain old new years resolution. I could never have a birthday one... well I could but I’d be messing with the system... hmm *ponders*
Photography is always more interesting when there’s a dark and brooding aspect :) Think about what you want your portrait to involve.
So, lemme get this straight...
You're gonna take a picture of me and then I write something about leaving? Like a paragraph? Or can it be a poem? Cause I think the poem would be better.
And what would the picture be? Something that reflects what was written or something completely different?
it would reflect the poem or whatever it is you want to say. i just love art and writing together :)
Ok, good. :)
Can I use a poem I've already written?
The only thing is don’t generalize. It has to relate directly to you experiences.
Oh good. I have one. :)
