What I do in my spare time...
This is a leaf that fell on the surface of a sailboat where I like to take afternoon naps between my classes. One of the things that I love about fall is the color of the leaves or the way they imprint themselves on the surface of sidewalks or seeing them litter the ground in their graceful death. Trees are amazing and maybe one day we'll all live in treehouses because apparently they're "Eco-friendly" and have all the convenience of everyday houses... hey it worked for the elves right?
The rest of these are weeds from lake union natural area where there're a lot of bugs... a lot a lot of bugs. I had several of them hit me and die on my shirt in this experience which was unfortunate for them but also meant that I had to do laundry which was lame.
I'm taking a sick day today because I've somehow manage to catch a fever yesterday that's hopefully going away because I have work and school tomorrow and the rest of my life -_-. I blame this on the fact that sun has gone at least for a little while but considering the coming seasons the sun isn't likely to rear its yellow head from behind the clouds anytime soon. I will miss the way the sun blanketed this city but for now singing is keeping me happy and not feeling sick (or at least not thinking about the sickness) no matter how bad/good I really am. I think anyone can be good at singing though if they knew how to sing.
Anyways sorry I've been a stranger to everyone, school and play have both been pretty hectic. I feel like "adults" never have any creativity when it comes to going out and playing. It's always extravagant (or not) parties or dinners at new restraunts or going to see the latest movies or getting coffee at trendy local cafes. I mean those things are fun but it's getting to be a bit repetative for my taste. I really appreciate those moments of fun that were fun because we did something rare or special... like dress up white trash and go to parent/teacher night. I know it's adolescent but being an "adult" seems boring and repetative because all you do is drink and live.
School has been short of amazing. I'm doing well but my classes are really nothing special and hopefully I'm just going to get easy good grades. I really wish I were a science genius so that I could develop a theory that would save the world from all our selfish actions. For anyone that was ever good at science I commend you because scientists have a REAL chance at saving the world... or blowing it up. Artists and politicians can only talk, influence, and persuade but scientists can do which is way better because you don't need to depend on the will of others to create change. It's best not to depend on humanity anyways because we're all so different that we can't all agree on the same thing. There're seriously people in my classes who think that global warming doesn't really exist. I mean seriously... people lie about things like jesus... not the world dying because no one can really benefit from that. It's not like global warming foundations are asking for money... they're just asking for cooperation which isn't too likely to happen unfortunately which is why I wish I were a science genius. I'm really sick of inspiring... I want to be able to do and make change from nothing. Unfortunately science is by far my worst subject as art and english are my best. Things could be worse. I could be stuck as a corporate slave trying my hardest to buttkiss my way to the top. I really can't stand having to prove something to anyone but myself. People in that business are so shady because they only like you when you're doing well but the moment you have a bad day they drop you from their list. It's really ridiculous how anyone can abandon a human being for material possessions or sales. Whatever I end up doing for the rest of my life I hope it's enough and that i'm not just working to live but rather working so that others can have a better future.
I really have this urge to go to San Francisco. It was always my dream as a kid to go back and live in San Francisco when I went to college. Unfortunately when it came to actually applying to college I didn't really consider San Francisco an option but it's too late for regrets now. Maybe I'll end up there one day but for now... Who wants to take a trip to San Francisco?
By the way.. no one ever told me that Edison Chen was in the Grudge 2! He's not an overall good looking guy but there's something about him that makes him incredibly hot to me and I really enjoyed that movie just because he was there to grace the screen. Speaking of Edison... I liked Infernal Affairs a lot better than the Departed. It was probably because the two movies had different tones about them although they're both good in their own ways but the Departed was just not... eloquent? I don't know... I thought Infernal Affairs was much more mature and the Departed was really ... a mindless american action movie.
