Somethings I've learned

Don't go to Italy in July.

If you're afraid of heights, and it's raining, the top of the Eiffel Tower is not the place for you.

When in a mosh pit, support the feet of the person who stage dives, otherwise you might get kicked in the face.

If planning to hike a volcano, walk around on sand dunes beforehand as practice.

During a hike, there are many things that can trip you. Be careful.

Dear Art,

As much as I love you, I'm writing to say that we need some space. It's been ages since I've done archery. I can't remember the last time I played a game of chess. I've really been dying to learn Krav Maga. Also, I want to finish War And Peace; I've only gotten halfway through. Maybe it's me being selfish, you can say that i...f you'd like. But please give me some time to think things over.
Sincerely Yours,

Carolyn

What do I want?

I want to be able to wake up next to someone who's peacefully sleeping beside me. I want to be able to simply say "Good Morning" and hear it back to me in a tone that says "I'll be sticking around for awhile"

more story

I don't know.

I don't know all the things the injected in me when I was in the hospital.
I don't know entirely why I was there. My mother won't tell me.

I don't know why my mother won't apologize.

I don't know why she won't get help.

Facebook

I was on Facebook. This guy I've known on and off. Insinuates.

so I thought about the website.

What it meant to me.

It didn't

It was an outlet for faceless faces to voice voices that couldn't be heard.

To make the mundane monotony of life an electronic footprint

A message for all to read

For all those who don't read

Who are having their own mundane lives elsewhere.

"The point is, that every piece of art changes your whole perception of the rest of
the world for the rest of your life. And it's not a joke! And if it doesn't, then it's not
art, it's a commodity."

- Lawrence Weiner responding to a question from Liam Gillick in "Between Artists"
pg20


- This is an interesting view and one I haven't heard before. Art, at least in America, seems to take a backseat to entertainment. In the UK, and USA, people average 3-4 hours a day in front of the television. I guess you could say some of whats on tv is art, since art has no real definition, but it doesn't seem to be the environment for the type of experience described above.

The idea of something changing your perception is unsettling.

I wondered if he was still a virgin
and what he thought of me behind his smile
I've heard your heart skips a beat when you sneeze
does that happen when you fall in love?

I imagine I'm the type to read self-help books and lie in hammocks, but I've never done either of those things.

other people's lives

Igniting the end of the cigarette while far off in another town, a work boot crushes an old leaf.

Inhale. Exhale. Go for it.

Cramming into another pair of Manolo's - the car door closes and the engines purr to life.

I didnt say im a freak
and you arent either
its everyone else that is
the ones that can hide it
and ones that do things to others
those are the real freaks

She stood on the porch watching the fireflies

She felt a hand on her shoulder

He dropped his hand in desperation
Not having known what else to do

He tried a few words.
None worked for what he wanted to say

She walked a few steps and turned

He pursued her.
