The Most Perfect Monday Ever--So Far.
Today, I ran on only 3 hours of sleep and am still going strong. Today, I am yet to eat an actual meal and am not even hungry.  Today, I sent in my application to Northwestern(knock on wood). Today, I was a pirate/robot.  Today, I realized how full of hope I am.  Today, I put everything negative aside and just smiled and laughed and ran a muck.  Today was possibly the. Best. Monday...

Ala-who?
That awkward moment when you realize one of your ex-boyfriends looked like a male version of Alanis Morissette. Hell, I wish he would’ve been this pretty. I wonder if you guys have ever had any awkward moments like mine?

30 Days. 30 Characters.
I’m pretty big on personal projects be it music, writing, painting, or just about everything else under the big, bright sun which can be done by man.      My latest challenge is something which was originally intended for graphic designers. It’s called the 30 Days, 30 Characters Challenge. The goal is to create and draw a new character each day for 30 days.       As for me, I...

The Universe Isn't A Total Bitch After All.  →
If the Universe had a voice, I have a feeling this is what she would say: “You’ll be loved like you’ve never known. You may feel alone when you’re falling asleep, but your heart belongs to someone you’ve yet to meet.”

Conversations Down the Loo.
I'm in my room working on homework and this is what I hear coming from the bathroom.
Martin: Man, I'm congested and I feel like shit.
Martin: Man, if you ain't congested then you ain't shit.
Martin: HAHA! I could be rapper.

The Reason I Do What I Do.
I wrote an editorial on image and media not too long ago. After a much awaited period, we were finally able to distribute our school paper, which my story was included in. So far the feedback from my friends and peers is positive and very encouraging. My journalism teacher asked if it was okay to share my article with someone and I said absolutely. She sent me the conversation she had with the person and I must say that responses like these are what inspire me to keep doing what I do. They're my drive; my inspiration. I made a mark in this persons life. What more could I possibly ask for?
Rusty James: Excellent article. She's very brave and very well spoken. Damn smart too with some very good points. Left me feeling a bit sad for the kids who don't know the tree-climbing, nickelodeon experience, but I think she hit it on the head. there's a feedback cycle of low esteem and projection of what kids think they're supposed to be.
Natalie Knackstedt: Do you mind if I share your comments w her? I think she'd appreciate them...
Rusty James: Go right ahead.
Natalie Knackstedt: Thanks, just wanted to ask first.
Rusty James: Of course. Yeah, she comes across as very mature and candid, and fearless in a world where lots of people are gonna scoff or consider that content risque but I say go for it.

Martin. Oh, Martin.
Yes, we are siblings. No, I can not explain anything that he says or does.
Me: Hey, can I interview you real quick?
Martin: Sure.
Me: Do you remember that time I walked in on you crab wiping in the bathroom?
Martin: ...yea.
Me: Sweet. Could you explain what was going through your head at that moment?
Martin: I fucking hate you, Karina.
Me: Alright, then. Next question: do you remember that time I shoved a cranberry Maxi Pad underneath the bathroom door?
Martin: THIS INTERVIEW IS OVER!
***storms out***
***storms back in***
Martin: AND I SWEAR TO GOD: IF YOU TELL ANY OF YOUR WEIRDO FRIENDS ABOUT THIS OR ANYTHING ELSE, I WILL END YOU!
***storms out...again***
Me: Do you remember that skid mark that was the length of Highway Six?!?! Do you?!?!
Martin: SHUT UP AND GO BLOG, YOU FREAK!
Me: Oh, I will. I will.

Spiritual Guide. Who is Ryan Gosling? DING!
In the past 27 hours I have learned a lot. I thank Ryan Gosling for once again visiting my dream. It’s like he’s my spirtual guide or rather my actual spiritial guide comes to me in the form of Ryan Gosling which I don’t happen to mind either :) I learned that my best form of relationship is that of non-comittment. I can’t belive it took me this long to realize I’m...

Assholes Hang Out With Other Assholes: Part Deux
And once again this theory is proven 100% accurate.  Why is it that I can never notice the absurd amount of doucheiness in a person until it’s too late and they’ve already either stepped all over me or made me ONCE AGAIN the butt of all their jokes? I’m too nice. That’s my problem. And I never care enough to speak up or fight for what I feel. Still, that doesn’t...

Dialouge Between The Heart, The Brain, and Self.
“Don’t do it…” said the Heart. “It’ll just end up hurting me.” “She’s fineeee!” said the Brain. “What’s the worst that’ll happen?” “She’s just going to make herself sick like always. Please tell her to stop,” said the Heart.  “Nah. She’s recovered. She’s good. Go ahead and do...

Perth is in Australia.
Heath is Australian.  And there you have it, Odessa.  Continue reading for your answer. Tumblr should have a reply to a reply option.  He did it mainly because after him and Matt Amato finished recording the music video for Wolves, Matt got a phone call from Heath’s wife telling him that Heath, who was like his B.F.F., had just died. He stayed with Matt to try and consol him when Matt...

Amber.
Alright, so maybe this did kind of make me smile deep down in the dark, broken crevices of my jank heart but still: it’s gotten more stale than the bread sticks from Olive Garden. Seriously people. Enough.  Amber: You guys were, like, the cutest couple EVER. Me: Ha. If I had a nickel… Amber: Oh my God, I hate it when people are all like, “You and your boyfriend make the cutest...

Is It?
Is it wrong of me to miss your pets? Is it wrong of me to wish that your grandma had taught me how to make that casserole? Is it wrong of me to want the stupid conversations over both everything and nothing back? Is it wrong of me to finally swallow all my pride and admit that I was to blame as well? Is it? Yeah. I didn’t think so either.

Feelings.
      And once again I find myself pushing stuff I don’t really feel. Do I like you? Of course I do, but I don’t think it’s the like you’re looking for.        From a scale of 1 to 10, I’m at a constant 3 and you’re at an 8+. It’s not fair for me to hold you back like this. Why start relationship a that I’ll only half-ass, ya know?      And now I...

We all lose friends...
kelvinween: We lose them in death, petty fights, distance and over time. But even though they may be lost, hope is not. The key is to keep them in your heart, and when the time is right, you can pick up the friendship right where you left off. Even the lost find their way home when you leave the light on.

Things I Don't Believe In
Destiny My friend brought this matter up during a video in Bio. The gazelle was eaten by the tiger, so does that mean that the gazelle was destined to be eaten? Like that was their ONLY purpose in life? No. I’m not buying it The phrase “It was his/her time.” Ok, no. Alright? That’s just stupid. Now, go sit in a corner and contemplate your existence. Organized Religion ...
