'Me Learn Words are Sounds'

"Take a walk." what does that mean? I know, get up and use those things off your ankles called feet and apply your body's weight to them. Put one foot in front of the other. But how do the sounds "Teh-Ache" mean to receive or accept willingly? And how does "Ah" mean an article meaning one of something? And further more, how does "Way-keh"= to move about in a visible form? So when one is learning a new language and somethings don't translate, this comes into affect. And as Manfred Mann has already established; sometimes you can be blinded by the light.

Ok, I'm not ending it like that, but it's still miraculous how far we've come, language wise. I always imagine how it began; I imagine a round table of men with beards wrestling over how to say things. pointing to various objects and announcing random sounds from their congested throats [dripping with beer]. Oh, and of course, they're men, because if they were females then the french word for breast wouldn't be sein (pronounced sine. how boring is that and horribly sounding)

Nostalgic Story

I miss the days where every minute was picked up by the reigns and taken by storm. I miss the sun. I feel so couped up, but I'm too lazy to go outside. Wow, I sound whiney, but I don't think I'm the only one. If I had somewhere to walk with sidewalks, I would. People need more space sometimes.

DEAR VEGETARIANS,
How could you possably want to eat this over a locally farmed cow or pig?? Ruin it for the rest of us, why don't you.
Of course, I'm just joshin'.

Chandelier Project

I began this project in the winter, I believe, and ended it after about 30 minutes of picture-taking. Sadly and stupidly, my dad gave my mom's chandelier away to Good Will, you know because I'm sure so many people are chandelier shopping at there. Anyways, the subject of this project was juxtaposition. Juxtaposition, for those of you in the dark, it is basically just putting together opposites or contrasts. In this case unpredictable environments for my mom's somewhat fancy chandelier.

Me in Future?


I feel like that random staple up there. The nails, if taken out would seem to be missed by the holes that would be lucid after the surgery. But the staple? It seems almost easy to get out, well easy enough for one strong doctor hand to do the procedure. Not much of a hole would be left. I feel like that staple because I don't have a direct flight to my future, but maybe it's not perminentl I'm too young. It makes me wonder if we think we have stunt growth at a young age or if we think we will live an average/lackluster life, will we be hammering ourselves into that hole? I hope not. It's a new era, age or time for better greatness [or greatness at all].
