Today was a day for tea and porches.

Ok! Journals!  I am trying to upload really ugly ones so you understand how awkward journals can look. And then. maybe more people will submit and it'll be great.

if you like to be interviewed I would like to know. I love interviewing. 

Anyways. I know its late today. I'm sorry so so sorry I had a big problem with my internet/computer and I didn't think anyone would mind. I mean. its a friday. who is really sitting at home waiting for me to update ( I sort of hope there is really someone like that out there).

Today I watched degrassi.

Today bryce gave me a paper heart

Today I spent thirty minutes soaking fruit in juice

Today I watched Drumline

Today I woman's weave saved her life.

Today while walking into school I found a penny, heads up, a good day.

Today I recieved a letter.

Today was a good day, a really great day.

I have alot to say, I have alot to do, I have alot to dream and it makes me feel tired and maybe a little bit upset, and I'm not sure why and so I'm going to make instant coffee andcurl up in blankets in my backyard and look into the sky. 

I am eating a guava. its great. Sorry this post is a bit late

ok. so. first:
So! I found my black journal today! And as celebration I'm uploading more than usual today! hooray!

If you look to the side you will view the first art piece that is being dispayed to your left, you should be astounded by all those colors!

The text is notes on absurd/existentialism. The colors are absurd. GET IT?!

This was done with soft pastals, and the colors have faded alot. When I first did it it was alot more vibrant, try and imagine.

it kind of looks like a tunnel, and if I had to assign my mind in a way I would pick a further faded version of this. So many places to burrow.


And the next piece! A two page spread!


The right most page of the spread is faces drawn while in Miami. I learned how to draw noses there. I would go to breakfast early every morning and just move from table to table, drawing.

the other page is some faces and just random scribbles. I don't really like that page (if you look in the left upper corner of that page you can see me trying to convince myself other wise)

But I included it because it was next to the faces pa ge and I kind of wanted to include an awkward journal page?

Because. Ugly is allowed, with art I feel like ugly and awkward are SO nessacary, I feel like if we are always worried about not being ugly we can't progress and so yes. that s an ugly page. I am sharing. your turn.

So I hoped you notice the layout/font changes (how could you not) I figured out I needed a stretch template and I have always loved black backgrounds and white text on black background looked too bright. so I played with it.

I feel unprofessional with the background this way, and I might change it but I must admit that I like it. Thoughts?

So I'm trying to post the art first, and this random other stuff later because I feel like people feel obliged to read the other stuff. I'm working on a more thought based blog.

Also! Don't forget about kiva.org.

ok! I have a really superb night! I'm so sorry I was late on the post tonight.

OH. BEFORE I FORGET. Today ryann and ben came over and ryann dyed bens hair (I wrote a letter) and left the extra dye here. So I fished it out of the trash so I"m going to try and make some art but then I'm going to take a shower immediately after so I don't get everywhere. I'll let you know how it turns out :]

BYE. and sorry this is late again!
