it's all about m.e.
some things are coming together, and others are falling apart. or rather, rearranging themselves beyond recognition.
and all i have to keep me company are my roommate's godforsaken TURTLES. actually, they're small and don't cause trouble. i don't know what my problem is.
my problem is that i'm switching into mechanical engineering and my whole class schedule is jacked... and may necessitate my dropping my russian art class, which i ADORE!! at least i can keep japanese brush painting.
i wish i weren't bound by time.

bleh
i'm here. my classes are all wonderful. but too much is going on for me to actually post. and i've forgotten so much, too.
right now i'm listening to kelly clarkson on my roommate's computer because mine is m.i.a. and when they told me 3-5 days... that means IN ADDITION to the 3-5 day waiting period for them to take a look at it. and they're backlogged. ugh.
when mr. puckers is back... well, i'd like to say that i'll update or whatever. but... UNLIKELY.
in other news, we have a mirror in our living room and i was like, "wow! i definitely lost weight!" so after i worked out i weighed myself.... yeah that mirror is a skinny mirror. le sigh. i love you, kelly clarkson.

i savored my salty cashew and set down my dixie cup half full of trail mix. i looked deep into his eyes. "May I have this dance?" and we twirled and sacheed (sp??) the lunch away...
or rather, i had some free samples and danced with joe to the player piano at costco. or rather, he danced and i stumbled along hopelessly. or rather, i haven't danced with a guy since... JUNIOR PROM. holy cow that's a long time!! good thing i took advantage of the player piano- and my unsuspecting coworker!!!
i've been packing. tomorrow i'll be leaving (i think). the black hole of l.a. is just a hop, skip, and a grapevine down the 5!

"Language or the Kiss" (Indigo Girls)
I don't know if it was real or in a dream
lately waking up I'm not sure where I've been
There was a table set for six and five were there
I stood outside and kept my eyes upon that empty chair
And there was steam on the windows from the kitchen
laughter like a language I once spoke with ease
and I'm made mute by the virtue of decision
I choose most of your life goes on without me
Oh the fear I've known
that I might reap the praise of strangers
and end up on my own
all I'd sown was a song
but maybe I was wrong
I said to you the one gift which I'd adore
unwrap a package of the next 10 years unfolding
but you told me if I had my way I'd be bored
right then I knew I loved you best born of your scolding
When we last talked we were lying on our backs
looking up at the sky through the ceiling
I used to lie like that alone out on the driveway
trying to read the greek upon the starts
the alphabet of feeling
Oh I knew back then
there was a calling that said if joy, then pain
the sound of the voice these years later
is still the same
I am alone in a hotel room tonight
I squeeze the sky out, but there's not a star appears
begin my studies with this paper and this pencil
and I'm working through the grammar of my fears
Mercy, what I won't give
to have the things that mean the most
not to mean the things I miss
unforgiving, the choice still is
the language or the kiss

last night i slept outside and still didn't conquer my fear of the backyard.
today i tried on 8 different pairs of jeans and still couldn't find a fit i liked.
le sigh. i've gotta start doing something meaningful with my life.

I painted! I painted it! I have been painting for about a week and I finally finished it last night. I'll have a picture soon. as soon as I hang them and find my mom's digital camera. Then you can all see!!
then you can all laugh and tell me to go back to economics. but only after you've seen them!

wednesday: eric observes that lindy is a little on edge, and asks why. lindy replies, "i'm not on edge!" eric wins.
thursday: after finding out her drivers license is expired (THANKS FOR NOT SENDING ME A NOTE YOU CRETANS!!), lindy gets extra security screening at s.j.c... only to find that her flight to l.a.x. has been canceled. lindy actually cries. though few, the tears were there (and so were the curious onlookers)
friday: while grocery shopping for her grandmother, lindy becomes suddenly and unbearably bloated while perusing the frozen food aisle.
yep, the planets are all aligned. DAMN YOU, MENSTRUATION!

black cadillacs
i got an email from jessalyn, my roomie who's already moved in (our lease started monday!)
"...Also, the bedrooms dont have lights in them, they just have a random light switch. So make sure you have a lamp for your bedroom. The kitchen/dining room is well lit, and I may go ahead and pick up a light for the livingroom. Our apartment is ghetto, but it is ours and therefore is AWESOME..."
i would like to take this opportunity to say: WORD UP, JESSALYN.
p.s. good thing charlotte told me freshman year to get a lamp to open up the room

hard decision
so... there is a cute italian restaurant in downtown menlo park. and every time we (summer staff) pass it we're like, "oh let's go there!"
tomorrow... WE ARE GOING THERE. and one thing led to another and....
TONY AND ERIC WILL WEAR SUITS TOMORROW... IF I DRESS UP, TOO.
and they're like, "oh a suit- it's so uncomfortable, it's so hot!" blah blah. they're expecting me to wear like a PROM DRESS and i'm like, "strapless bra, bitches, you got nothing on me". i will say that i was the one to suggest we all dress up, even though it's not all that dressy of a place. but... a prom dress... for lunch in menlo park? (my choices are: the black and white dress i wore to father-daughter dress junior year, and the pink and black one i wore at senior prom)
we were driving today, and they suggested the suits-promish dress idea, and i was like, "oh... i don't know..." and they both looked at me and they were like, "TWO GUYS IN SUITS!!!" man, that really got to me. but i'm just not sure. any ideas?
i'm hoping to get away with my maroon with white embroidery dress.
okay the first dress. except, it's only black and white (change all the light pink to black). and, it's all black on the back side. and... I'M NOT A WAIF.
okay, and dress 2: except, turn the black to pink, and the white to black. and... i'm not as hippy as her, so the contrasts around the waist aren't as... striking. and, again, NOT A WAIF.
dress 3: yay plus size models!! this is a pretty accurate picture of what i look like in it.
oh, and please let me know a.s.a.p... and before 7:45 a.m. when i leave for work (with dresses in hand/car!). or call me any time before lunch. i'm open to suggestion/small bribery.
