how would you feel if your partner " commanded " you to do 100 situps? I use the word " command " in quotations because it's less so of a command and more so a carrying out of a request that was originally brought up by yours truly. Here's the thing, I have never had abs. Here's also the thing, I have always wanted abs!! nothing too insane, just like a mild toning. I want my body to look like what I imagine a body should look like in my mind (and yes all body types are beautiful, but on the opposite end of things, I don't think there should be anything wrong with setting goals for ourselves either!) to answer that first question, I'm excited. I've never had anyone in my life push me in a physically positive direction. if anything, i've been taught that food is love (which i'm sure it is!! i just want to try a different way of living for now and see if i can look the way i want to be!)
so I'm sitting here eating a kale, red onion, cherry tomato, dill, blueberry caeser salad sippin on some iced coffee listening to some elevator jazz while writing a blog post, and maybe it's the spirit of the re-opening of the restaurant that I work at, but I am in high spirits to say the least. I know i probably sound like a broken record, but I think it's important to remember and reiterate that there is SO MUCH that I am grateful for. I am grateful for a loving mother, amazing managers and coworkers, friendly spirits and passerbys, access to healthy food, a roof over my head, a fucking computer to type on... like I just want it to be known that NONE of this is taken for granted, not even for a second. much love to the universe and everything within it <3 <3 <3
okay so I just got back from a three day trip to San Diego! here's a flikr album of some photos i took along the way! (the dark pics at the end are my first stab at ASTRAL PHOTOGRAPHY! :D) the camera picked up more stars than I saw with my naked eyeeee. cool stuff!!
alright what elseeee
i've decided i'm going to embrace W R I T I N G
poetry, lyrics, short stories, novels
whatever it is!
I think what's so exciting about this next piece of writing i'm about to share with you is that even I, the "author", do not know where the story is going to go next. sure, i've got same abstract ideas of what could be pleasant directions, but the details are built on the spot, and i hope to make this a routine practice of mine. there's no editing involved yet, so read with a grain of salt. now without further ado, CARRY ON! <3
"we live in a town where the four seasons are made very apparent in a perfect crosshair.is it strange? yes. do we ever question it? not so much anymore. sure, there is the crosshatch lab corp but our average citizen has just come to accept that this is just the way it has always been, and to be honest, it's quite beautiful so most would say, just let it be.my school's campus is on the east side of town, which is our snowy region. Yes, there is a campus on the spring side (heck, now that I think of it, even a smaller one on the summer side) but I decided to study at crosshair's school of art, specifically in their field of fashion design.
I always saw these stunning runway shows growing up and it felt as if they all came from some fantasy land where only the most obscure and beautiful things from your dreams could exist.
Anyway, right now I am riding our metro to our dorm rooms. Class starts tomorrow and they've given us a day to settle in our new homes.
[[hide them in your dorm]]
Show her holding on to the top hand rail looking out the window. It's a tall train with a great view of the entire campus (which looks like a castle!). The train should be somewhat crowded with mostly students but maybe some professors with their noses in a newspaper as well. There is a group of batwing goth kids with cat ears and punk goth clothing. There are ordinary students conversing in the seats. But the main focus is looking at our main girl who has a window view, looking away from the packed subway.
The subway began clearing out, but our girl still hadn't reached her stop. I guess most students live at the lower level dorms... she looked around and she was the only one. But she was in awe of the view as the metro was going higher and higher into a snowy forest mountain. Until finally at the top of a hill stood a two story almost cabin like structure. "Final stop!" yelled the train driver. "Ah! I guess that's me!" She grabbed her briefcase and headed out the door. "Orchid Owl House" "hmm interesting name.."
She put her briefcase down and decided to knock. The doorknob was shaped like an owl. "Hello! Anybody home?" She yelled. She waited for a few moments but since there was no response, she decided to walk in. "Ah, door's open" "hello!! Anybody in here?" No answer. "Ah, there's a note on the coffee table!" "Welcome to Orchid Owl. Please select a room upstairs and make yourselves comfortable. We have some chili stewing in the slowcooker, as well as board games and a television set up." "Oh, how generous. They must have realized we'd be too far to go back into town this first night. Alright, I'll come back down for all this, but first, let me go see the rooms!!" She walked up the stairs and saw one room to her right, and a hallway to her left. The hallway had rooms on either sides. "Ah, first pick! Lucky me! Let me see what's down this hallway." "Oh wow, this one has a circle window! How dreamy!! Hmm it's a little smaller than the other two but I'm kind of in love with this view so this will have to be the one." She plopped her backpack on the bed and began sorting through her belongings. "Ahh it feels so good to take this backpack off! My books are so heavy T___T;" "hello!" She heard a young man's voice in the distance. "hey!! I'm up here!" He started walking up the stairs. "Oh wow, it's co-Ed! I wonder who my roommates will be! Ah I'm probably being rude, I should go greet him. "Hey!" "Hey!" "Are you my new roommate?" "Yup, just got here a few minutes ago actually!" "Oh amazing, well it's nice to meet you, my name is Sail." "Nice to meet you, Sail. I am --" "Hello!! Anybody home??" A lively female voice entered from downstairs. "Hey, yeah! We're up here!" I yelled. "And another arrives" Sail popped his head in the room across from me "oh wow, this room has two beds!" "Hey everyone!!" She was dressed in Kawaii red strawberries. Her aura was warm and cute! "my name is santa" "it's a pleasure to meet you, santa" I bowed. Sail wandered back out of the room "nice to meet you, my name is sail" sail bowed. "heyy!" "eh, here's comes our last roommate!" "we're up here!" sail yelled. "okay! coming!" she sounded young. "Ahh! Can someone help me??" we headed towards the stairs. sail ran down to help her "oh wow! that luggage is almost bigger than you!" hahah he carried it up the staircase for her. sail had pail hair and lots of piercings. so there's the cute Kawaii curly pink hair, there's the small punk guy, and there's "my name is snake" "snake? like the animal?" "yeah.. it's a long story" she kind of looks away. she has long straight black hair with straight bangs. at first glance you might think she is wearing an ordinary school uniform, but she had altered it with many little black bows, lace trims, and subtle goth embellishments.
Sail sonata and sunset"
