NYR#2

One of my New Year's Resolutions has been to be less lazy in my music listening. By this I mean making an actual effort to sit down and listen to music rather than just having it as background noise and listening to entire albums instead of only one or two songs that I like. I've also made a pact with myself to buy CDs rather than downloading off of iTunes. So far in the past couple of weeks I have purchased, in CD form, "Built My Fortress" by The Foxglove Hunt and "Face Your Fun" & "Pacifico" by The Lassie Foundation. Obviously, I have sporadically bought CDs in the past, but it's the straight and narrow from here on out. And since my iPod quit working last week, I will only be listening to mix tapes in the car.



I suppose it's time to try something different from what I've been doing.

As always, more resolutions when they come.

Things are looking up.

I would like to formally apologize for the plethora of emo posts. It was a bad month. I'll try not to let it happen again.



I had a dream a couple of nights ago where a friend and I were zooming over the ocean in giant swings that were connected to the clouds. It was slightly scary. Then last night I had a dream where I fell in love, it was very scary. I wonder what I'll dream tonight... I hope I dream up some motivation to work on pointless English class assignments.

Sometimes

Sometimes some things are just not possible. Examples include: time-travel, songwriting, being happy, health.

I should try walking a mile in my own shoes

When I grow up, if I grow up, and if I live in the city I'd like to have a secret garden on the roof with trees and grass and waterfalls and tigers.

When I get married, if I get married, and if my wife wants to have one of those wedding things - this must be our first dance:



I want to have more dreams. I want to remember more of my dreams. Less time on the computer and more time in the magic cave, outside, in prayer, in silence, studying, learning. Less time pouting and more time being nice to my family, being nice to my friends, being nice to people I don't know that need it. Less time worrying and more time writing, having something to write about, chasing buffalo, listening to my beard grow, listening to the grass grow, petting Kronk & Wendy & Georgie, walking Roger. Less time conserving gas and more time out at the farm. Less time making small talk and more time making big talk. Less time liking you and more time loving you.

Some Days Are Better Than Others

Some days are lonelier than others.

My Spanish professor is Newman. I have a bad attitude. Sometimes I wish for things I know wouldn't be good for me right now but I wish I had them anyway. Actually my life isn't quite as morose as I make it sound. But I only seem to write pointless stuff on here when I feel this way.

I designed a postcard to send out to my friends it had a photograph of you and it said "Happy, The End".
