recurring theme:

my life is defined by the fact that no one else thinks my jokes are funny.

overwhelmed

today I was too lazy to clean, I just febreezed everything. I pulled my laundry out of the dryer, and instead of going to iron it, I just climbed into my laundry basket while it was still warm and listened to Sun Kil Moon on repeat. I'm overwhelmed. I'm over it.

moving on up.

I think I ripped this page out of "Oh, The Places you'll Go" a couple years ago and stashed it in my miscellaneous box. (yes, I have a miscellaneous box. Quite full, actually) I'm sure I had plans to mail it to someone with an encouraging note and maybe a bag of cookies. But oddly enough, upon finding it, I just felt encouraged myself. I know that life in Pittsburgh is for the birds, but I will be done here sooner than I can imagine, and then I'll be able to move and work doing what I love. Never you mind that I will be in debt because of the cost of such happiness, it might be worth it. Actually, it will be worth it. I just want to make my parents proud of me. Once my dad says that, I can go back to being a slacker and just sleep and paint all day - but until then, I just have to keep working harder than I've ever imagined.

;my biography:

I expect so much from people; and am ,therefore, constantly disappointed. I'm beginning to seriously doubt that there is anyone else like me in the world. I'm a giver, and can never [will never] cross over to being a taker.

latest impulse buy:

I've been feeling miserable lately because of my living situation. If I wasn't tied down by school here, I'd have packed up and shipped out long ago, but I have to survive for another year. Luckily, my woes are easily alieviated by buying myself kitchen appliances. Hello, new ice cream maker. So yeah, I know I'm lactose intolerant - but tonight I made myself the most wonderful soy green tea ice cream. I then sandwiched it between 2 vegan gingersnaps. Heaven. It was so wonderful. I enjoyed my creation while watching blockbuster rentals (the best kind of company). It was bittersweet though, because for as much fun as I have by myself, I have significantly less fun knowing I want to share it with someone else.

I hate having roommates. There, I said it.

charming, to say the least
