where is my mind

I don't know what to blog right now.
I'm a big jumbled, smiling mess right now.
I'm not happy, I'm not upset. I'm not anything.

I am high. that's one thing. but I don't know what I'm feeling. I guess I'm not feeling anything.

I have satisfaction issues. I know this. everything just lacks, or is too much. it's never just right. I hate that I can't settle.
I want to paint. I have eager hands, but no where to rest them. I hate the imperfections that I find in everything I come in to contact with. I just want some comfort. familiarity. my fingertips ache for familiarity. constantly.
I hate how much the flaws make me feel regret, and nostalgic.
I hate how fast things can happen, and how fast they can end.


just wanna lay in bed all day.
I enjoy sleep more than anything.

had my doubts

you say that I treat you like a book on a shelf
I don't take you out that often, cause I know that I completed you
and that's why you are here, that's the reason you stay here
how awful that must feel

you said you'd be my dream, I could have you every night
and if by morning, I'd forgotten you, well, no big deal, that'd be alright
cause you're the reoccurring kind
you are the reoccurring kind
you never really leave my mind

I said "why the hell not"


you're still here, believe me

Like silence after noise, or cool, clear water on a hot, stuffy day, Emptiness cleans out the messy mind and charges up the batteries of spiritual energy.
Many people are afraid of Emptiness, however, because it reminds them of Loneliness. Everything has to be filled in, it seems--appointment books, hillsides, vacant lots--but when all the spaces are filled, the Loneliness really begins. Then the Groups are joined, the Classes are signed up for, and the Gift-to-Yourself items are bought. When the Loneliness starts creeping in the door, the Television Set is turned on to make it go away. But it doesn't go away. So some of us do instead, and after discarding the emptiness of the Big Congested Mess, we discover the fullness of Nothing.

jar of honey

I believe I am losing my way, and it's beginning to worry me.
I guess I just got lost.
lost in what? I don't know.

don't get so uptight

today was lame. yesterday was lame. the day before was lame. I've had detention for three days. such bullshit. they finally got on me about my tardies, oof. but I got a lot of work done in detention, so I'm okay with that.
reading the tao of pooh. I can't stop reading it, I love it. stoked.

I'm high, so I'm somewhat okay. full from an in-n-out cheeseburger and fries, and then a crapload of tootsie rolls. not such a good mood earlier.
nothing too bad, but nothing good.
came home to find that the cleaners broke my buddha. pisssssssed.

San fran this past weekend was so fun. cas and I stayed at alison's, and we picked up sabrina in oakland and she stayed with us, too. friday night we smoked and walked around san fran, rode the muni and buses, explored. it's so awesome there, I loved everyone's vibes. drivers are assholes, but people outside of cars were great. super friendly, so sweet. saturday we smoked, went to the beach, went to the zoo, explored some more and then went to a party. I was drunker than I thought I was, oof. but it was fun, just freezing outside. went back to alison's apartment and smoked and watched mean girls. sunday morning we went out to the bridge and took pictures, then headed home. the most fun I've had in a long, long time. cas and I were saying how we really needed that. we were super happy.

on the way there, we stopped in tehachapi to say hi to joe, and I wanted to see kyle but he was no where to be found. we stopped in bakersfield to see paul. and on the way back from san fran, we stopped in bakersfield again for a few and then tehachapi, where we met up with joe and kyle. I haven't seen kyle since early december, so I was a bit nervous. I actually was a little bit scared, and I'm not sure what kind of scared. I gave him back his ring, and we talked. I didn't expect to cry, but I did. as I was sitting with him, with many silent gaps between our fumbling conversation, I realized how none of it mattered anymore. all the lies and mistakes of our past, because it's pointless to dwell on now. it doesn't put a hole in my stomach anymore, although the bad memories still annoy me. but I've put it past me, to the point where I can talk about it with him and laugh a little. it's pointless, pointless to argue and point fingers. a year and a half of that, no more. and as our conversation would get emotional, then silent, then back to normal, I realized how much I still want to be his friend. I told him that, and I couldn't help but cry a little. I know he's still a mess, and I hate that I couldn't help, but now I want him to be able to speak to me and still come to me for comfort. he was my best friend for a year and a half, and I relied on him and needed him for everything. I was my complete self with him. that comfort between us is too valuable for me to give up. so we're going to remain friends. I just want the best for him, and I hope that everything works out for him. I really do. we kissed goodbye and it was sad and at the same time, comforting. I felt like it put closure on it, for me. as we sat in the car and made a few jokes, I felt so much better about the situation. I could breathe again.
his band's playing in long beach this saturday and I'm gonna go. why not, sounds fun. I just want to stay connected.

in san fran, I thought of many things that I want to start over with. work on. continue. when I got home, I was a happy girl. and although school this week has sucked the life out of me, I know deep down, I'm still that happy girl.
I'm just tired and lacking motivation to sit at school for those few hours. but I can't stop thinking about my future and what I want to do with it.

can't stop listening to tegan and sara. man, I have missed them.

twitchy fingers. and even though I know I'm full, my mouth still waters when I think about possible things to eat. gain more weight, yesh.
god, I'm high. and I'm happy that I'm high.
just waiting for this mood to improve.
it's thursday night, so many good shows on. thank goodness.

red, gold, I told

so I update this almost every single day for you
I begin to hate you for your face, not just the things you do
go tell him how my wrist is sore from pulling at your insides all night
nothing that you do is new to anything or anyone but you

coming down

sunday night, so drained. I'm getting over a high and my body has just completely crashed. it feels so good to be in bed.
thursday was the midnight showing for alice in wonderland, and I went with ryan. I smoked before the movie, of course. I really liked it, I don't know why people are bitching. it was good as it was. johnny depp is just magical. that was an excellent movie to see in 3d.
friday I worked a full eight hours, two to ten. tiring. I stayed home, and attempted to clean out some rooms in the house. saturday, I had to wake up early and get to work, cause it was alice in wonderland day. we had to dress up, and I was alice, and the wig was so ugly. hahaha. I looked horrible, but the kids were stoked. it was fun, we all got to act stupid and make fun of kids and take a bunch of pictures, and get paid. did nothing saturday night, just smoked and watched inglorious basterds with my family and passed out.
then today I drove to chino hills to get my hair done by pat again. the red was fading, so I was like let's change it up. it's back to how it was before, except a bit more violet-y and more black in the bangs. I dig it.
I've smoked four times today. I feel like I could pass out any second. but I'm still awake.
I actually had homework this weekend, and I didn't do it. I'm losing motivation...this isn't looking good.
I still need to watch the crazies, I know I will this week, whoever will go with me. free movies rule, lemme tell ya.

I gotta start saving up money this week, I'm going to san fran with cassie for the weekend. how exciting.

time to watch more of that girl with twelve fingers and fall asleep. sweet dreams.

no reason to grieve


just watching it over fills me with such joy. I was there, with a good friend, enjoying his beautiful voice and charm. agh.
someone take me back, please.
I was a happy, happy child.

"you're a rat in a maze"

this is why I don't do this.
I get weird and jumbled up, and I lose sight of what I want.
I start questioning myself. and I hate questioning myself.
ooooof.
