I have a few things to look forward to
well actually i should be more positive i have EVERYTHING to look forward to. New people. My insturment. New lessons. THE FAINT, playing on june 8th at soma. ay .. if only marlene could come with me. I dont think i have ever seen the faint without her. I am really into that show 'Hero's' I never watch TV but my friend showed me the show and i love it. in the fall i got into Weeds. I watched the entire season on DVD in like 3-4 days. I am a soundtrack addict. I love the soundtrack to babel. weeds. everything is illuminated. my cat got really stoned last night by kyle. he was digging in his water bowl, i think he was trying to swim. he likes it when i give him baths. my life is changing so much at the moment. i think next semesmter im going to begin the nursing program at SWC. i really want to be a nurse. but be as smart as a doctor..get work experience here and then take it elseswhere like africa, or maybe closer to home like mexico... places where it is really reallly needed and instead of doing it for the money i will trade my education and service for essentials for survivial. In my english class im reading toni morrison 'beloved' and i almost cried today...its an intense book but here is part of the chapter that makes me want to escape and live in the wilderness on my own. This entry is about a slave, her name is Baby Suggs, she is old and cant really walk and he son worked and worked until he could buy her out of slavery and give her freedom. " What she did was stand beside the humming Lillian Garner while the thow of them cooked, preservedm washed, ironed, made candles, clothes, soap and cider; fed chickens, pigs dogs and geese; milked cows, churned butter, rendered fat, laid fires......" and all i could think about were the men in the field picking the crops, getting the meat for dinner....... why dont we live this way? we're lazy, we get everything so damn EASY why cant we live the way we are supposed to? live to work for our selves, our survival...
