ooooh! i made a delicious fruit salad type deal today. it had apples, bananas, strawberries, blueberries, green grapes, and purple grapes. SOOOO good. i ate that while my dad ate a double cheeseburger from my uncle's butchery. he was like "you know, i think my meal's a bit healthier". silly little man. guess what...he's quitting tobacco! yay for him!! (although now he's a total spazoid that can't sit still)
"Wish You Were Here"--Incubus
I dig my toes into the sand
The ocean looks like a thousand diamonds strewn across a blue blanket
I lean against the wind
Pretend that I am weightless
And in this moment I am happy...happy
I wish you were here
I lay my head into the sand
The sky resembles a backlit canopy with holes punched in it
I'm counting UFO's
I signal them with my lighter
And in this moment I am happy...happy
I wish you were here
The world's a roller coaster and I am not strapped in
Maybe I should hold with care but my hands are busy in the air
oh wow. i just found out last night that the movie Titus was almost rated NC-17. they made the director (Julie Taymor) cut short this Roman orgy scene. anyway, once she did that, the movie could be R. however, they didn't seem to mind the "people pies" that Titus made out of the blood/bones of Tamora's sons and fed to her.
society is so messed up. it's like violence is acceptable, but sex is still so taboo. in my opinion violence is way more disgusting than a harmless sex scene. it's like "get over it, you're a grown up." i dont understand why we dont sensor violence the way we do sex (dont get me wrong, id rather not see either one). anyone else confused?
i just used the new eco and animal friendly face wash that i got at the health place. it is amazing! my face feels cleaner now than it ever did with those animal-ridden products slathered on. everyone should try buying animal free face wash, it works!
ill always have a place for you in my heart...
im ready to let the rivers wash over me...
ya know what, just go to my blogger. there's a link on my house page because im too lazy to put one in here as well. have a lovely day.
I stayed up all night contemplating the world and vegetarianism. I don't know why meat eaters can't understand this: we're not trying to convert the world. Vegetarianism, at least for me, is a very personal, internal choice. I couldn't bare to look in the eyes of an animal if I was an omnivore.
I've been listening to Tracy Chapman for about three hours straight. I think anyone concerned with environmental or social problems should listen to her. She's got cool music with a message.
Man, I wish I could go downstairs and do the early morning yoga show, but my stupid stepdad is down there. He migrates downstairs at like 4 am and sleeps on the couch. what the frick? so so so annoying!!!!!!
yay for yoga!
5 am yoga left me feeling like jelly, especially since i was doing it on 2 and 1/2 hours of sleep. watched informercials and then i slept until 12:45 (gasp). now im awake and ready to defend veggies everywhere.
Today was boring. I love the "I love the 80's" show on VH1. I watched like three of the episodes today. I did a little bit of yoga. I was so surprised, but I convinced my dad to get up and do yoga with me tomorrow at 5 am. Yay!

GOOD NEWS!! i went to barnes and noble...i bought two poetry books, a CD, and a dinosaur movie!!!

i really felt like posting an entry today. doo doo doo...so...ton
i have that song stuck in my head from "silence of the lambs"...its from that part where buffalo bill is putting on lipstick and dancing around naked....that was random....im cryin, cryin...woot woot
Nothing is me and me is nothing. That was philosophical, but terrible grammar...
Oh the beauty that is Child Development. We get to sit in the lab and do nothing all hour...yay...I really like Echo and the Bunnymen...The Killing Moon is a good song.
Under blue moon I saw you
So soon you'll take me
Up in your arms
Too late to beg you or cancel it
Though I know it must be the killing time
Unwillingly mine
Fate
Up against your will
Through the thick and thin
He will wait until
You give yourself to him
In starlit nights I saw you
So cruelly you kissed me
Your lips a magic world
Your sky all hung with jewels
The killing moon
Will come too soon
