drawing castles.
it's a bitch to not know what to say.
that isn't why i haven't been here. it seems i discovered that life... is addictive.
i keep going back for more.
and there's limbo.
i saw the most beautiful scene today, driving west on eighth street. there was a flowing sprinkler on a lawn, and the sun caught it perfectly, its vibrant rays spotted through tree leaves. i could see each singular drop of mist. it was so precise and exquisite.
i don't think i can get enough of this stuff. i'm thinking of making a photo album (the ghetto ones with the sticky clear paper) entitled "The World Is Amazing" and comprised of pictures i derive from National Geographic.
and it SO won't be cheesy- not at all.
Lovin', yeah, it's what i got. it's amazing how little my love life can change in four months. and to think i'm so easily honked at. oh well. my time will come.
ms. bowen's (it's probably okay to call her "'asta" now) advice for the summer:
Your job is to have brilliant fun and develop all those magical mysterious talents that classrooms know so little about. Dance! Picnic! Draw castles in the air, ponder hidden messages in the clouds overhead, write the exact truth of your being right now onto beautiful paper, draft your next novel or collection of poetry, make a completely new friend once a week, be it a person, a house, a country lane, a recipe, a movie, a delicious word...
i wonder if you can draw castles the way that you can draw a bath. i'll work on the spires right now.
(yes, i'm smiling) :D
