We saw the movie Brick yesterday. It was very good - artfully done and interesting throughout. It was also very weird for me to watch, as it takes place in a nameless high school in SoCal (Orange County, unless I am grossly mistaken), and as all the schools in SoCal (Orange County) look exactly the same, and as the sky looks exactly the same - ( Read more... )

It finally occured to me why I feel so little motivation to update. During my time in Scotland I started a new and novel activity. Every night I would get out a little book that had many blank lines in it but no words, and I would write about the day using a pen with ink in it. The imprinted word "Journal" on the front of this book suggests a ( Read more... )

Well, after a wonderful few days in Claremont, I have returned to my parents' abode and begun to finish packing for Scotland. We saw Les Miserables Wednesday night and it was awesome. Mmmm... life is good.

And I am going away.
Now.

I went exploring today. It was a misty morning, and tatters of fog drifted through the hills, bringing a very earthly stillness to the land despite the constant twittering of birds. I went up to the hills, and found my way onto the maze of drainage ditches webbing accross the watered part of a hill. Lots of tagging up there. I had also ( Read more... )

Well, I'm camped out at my parent's house for the next three weeks or so packing, then it will be off to Scotland for me. I don't think the reality of that has really hit home at this point. The world seems a little unreal in general, as a matter of opinion. I haven't really felt like writing in my journal... but I feel I've been silent too long ( Read more... )

The best was German Hall Mini Draw, which was 1/5, but that doesn't count. Turns out I'm Summer Math 28... which would be pleasing, if I were doing summmer math.
