Nostalgia and List-making

Jul 10, 2009 21:32

Wow, I never post in here anymore. I am thinking about deleting it. Except that it is more difficult to delete this journal because it's online. A regular diary is much easier to abandon, because you can simply stop writing in it, but give it a place on your bookshelf or in your closet and still have access to it every once and awhile. I don't think I can delete this, guilt or anxiety free, until I have a hardcopy of it... And how much do I really want to print this entire thing out? Not much.

Oh, nostalgia, how you chain me. To... LiveJournal. Sigh.

Now that I've bothered to write this entry at all, I suppose I should say something in the form of an update. There is so much to tell, however, that I cannot think what I should include. Solution? Random-ness!

A LIST OF... THINGS:

- James has the most impressive/dorkiest farmer's tan this summer.

- As I do not work outdoors, and spend most of my time in a bakery or in a classroom, my tan is less impressive/existent except on my feet. I have tan lines from my sequined shoes: my toes are strikingly white but the tops of my feet are brown.

- I'm working on a novel.

- I'm also working on a poetry manuscript.

- I'm also working on a painting series.

- Unfortunately, I'm also taking summer class and have no time to do much of anything else.

- I recently made a daytrip to Vancouver with James, where I went to Science World for the first time since I was approximately seven years old or something, and where we went to the Vancouver Art Gallery and I finally got to see Emily Carr originals.

- The Victoria Butterfly Gardens are awesome. A giant blue butterfly lit on my hand.

- I got my period a few days ago and was a hormonal mess, but talking on the phone to my mom later in the evening made me feel way better about everything.

- I miss Darrell!

- I eat a lot of bread.

- According to an info sheet on the back of a bathroom stall in Science World, your bladder can hold up to 300mL of pee.

- I'm doing my Honours thesis on sonnets. I love sonnets. (I hope that by the end of my thesis, I still love sonnets.)

- Recently I've been playing a Gamecube game called Super Mario Sunshine. It's super fun. I don't let James play it. I hog the TV.

- I make my bed every day when I get up. Every day.

- Today I escorted a Australian couple from the bus stop to Willows Beach.

- Tomorrow I start work at 7am and I am going to sleep now!
