Jack Kerouac“The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes: ‘Awww!’”
“I like too many things and get all confused and hung-up running from one falling star to another till i drop. This is the night, what it does to you. I had nothing to offer anybody except my own confusion.”
“I hope it is true that a man can die and yet not only live in others but give them life, and not only life, but that great consciousness of life.”
“My fault, my failure, is not in the passions I have, but in my lack of control of them.”
“Maybe that’s what life is...a wink of the eye and winking stars.”
i can’t believe i haven’t read him yet.
one of the highest compliments i have ever received
czarina & nicole were trying to think of intro songs for people. when they came to me, they wanted something chill but feisty. [i was chill at the time but they have seen me on the brink of feisty.] they concluded that my theme song should be by lauryn hill. my jaw dropped. & then czarina said, “everything is everything! that’s your song.”
oh wo-ow. =O
that was a bigger achievement than my diploma.
i presented a bit for orientation today, & - well - i still love presenting. i also really enjoy the seattle u housing & res. life staff. scott threw three articles at ivory & me & looking over them makes me wonder if i am grad school material right now. i also still kinda like meetings. is that weird?
i saw a scanner darkly by myself yesterday. i liked it. ‘not one of my favorite movies, but i like it & disagree with all the paranoia/druggie-bashing that others around me critique it with.
interestingly, that was only my second time going to a movie theatre alone, the first being for nacho libre - also while in seattle.“Half the fun of the travel is the esthetic of lostness.”“Half the fun of the travel is the esthetic of lostness.” -Ray Bradbury
