Strawberry Fields Forever ... <3

Jus watched Across the Universe for the first time in about a year .... forgot how much I loved that movie :) Great great movie ... they did a good job with weaving the stories and the songs together.

Ponderations #1

I suppose when I'm hungover is the best time to write. That, or when I'm really tired, because the words and vocab jus flow out like water. Or maybe I'm just too tired to sort out thoughts in my brain or block out my subconsiousness so everyting jus comes thru.

I've been thinking alot about my life and everyting/everyone in it. I mean ... if you don't know me already, I'll give you the brief run nitty gritty. I'm 23 years old, living at home with my mother, been single for about a year, working at a yoga studio as a coordinator and writing for a magazine as the fashion consultant/editor. I have a handful of wonderful friends from all different kinds of groups and cilches, and a wicked family that I don't think I get to spend enough time with. I wish there was a way for me to spend more time with all these wonderful people and build these relationships as well as building myself and what I want to do in life.

I've been reflecting alot on what I want to do with myself recently, because I've decided that I need to move on from this place, i.e. Canada. I love it here in the summer time, I love the free health care, I love the network of friends that I've built here. But there's something about Canada during the winter - i.e. 8 months out of the year - that makes me horribly and utterly DEPRESSED. I think they call is the RASS CAWL WEATHER. Its taken me almost a f*@#ing decade to accept Canada as my home base instead of JA. (Note that I said "home base" - not HOME.)

So I guess what I'm working out right now is where I want to settle down for a likkle. Working out what I want to do in terms of a job. Its funny b/c I watched Vicky Christina Barcelona the other day (twice) and the character of Christina reminds me so much of myself. A girl who's just floating, trying out different things, unsure of what she wants, but knows what she DOESN'T want. I mean I'm not that bad, but the list of what I don't want slightly preceeds the list of wants.

which leads to self-discovery #3 ...

I'm a bona-fide FLAKE.

Self-Discovery #2 part 2

Deep down inside, I am a lazy lazy lazy individual with absolutely NO ambition to get out of bed in the mornings.

I think I need to find more of a routine.

Self-discovery #2

...... I'm THAT forgetful .... I've already forgotten what I was going to post.

How quaint!

I really have no idea what it is specifically about mason jars and old milk bottles that I find so charming. I just want to drink from them all the time! And use them in various art projects and storage options!



haha and i found this cute cartoon too :)

Self-discovery #1 (of many)

When I'm bored ... I eat.

I should pick up another habit ... not smoking, b/c I'm asmatic, and don't like the taste that much anyway.

Knitting would be a good one to continue, except sometimes it puts me to sleep.

And I would love to have sex, but that seems to be many postal codes away. (not that I only have sex when I'm bored, nor do I do it in public when I'm bored ... let me reverse that up.)

Am waiting for another solution sometime soon.
