Some shit,


Today im minnesota nice when it comes to the peace rally.

Last night i kicked it with some homies, perkins run and all. I wish i could say we had wonderful deep convo but it wasnt like that, i got hopes for tonight though. Maybe have a gathering at my house. Steve had all his boys over last night i sat up and talked to them for a couple hours. Lil kids.

Uh me and hols were discussing the separate worlds thing, still trying to figure out why zach is so weird, (he tries to keep everything divided, whereas the rest of us want all our pals from each world together.

Zach is out hunting by the way. which is weird.


I dont really know what to say, all my girls got boys. like practically official.
gonna see my cat today, pick up those pictures finally, possibly anyway.

see i told u i aint got nothin to say. I'd get all personal on ya but i cannae for now. plus i dont really know what i'd say. "be positive and love your life."

I find myself currently thinking "well its an agreement to make a mistake." doesnt sound very much like me, and i wonder where this story will fit in.

Quotes/reasons my rommate is cool

"If you ever want to get a sugar high in Mike's car, all you need to do is lick the seat."

"I swear to god if I ever see John Adams (historical figure) i'm gonna punch him in the face!"

"Mike,

Perhaps you would like to encourage your friends to download their posters, stencils, buttons, and stickers at one term president
Thanks. See you around 4pm,

Tim

PS. After President Bush requested $87 billion more for war and
occupation, peace advocate, ice cream entrepreneur and Kucinich
supporter Ben Cohen explained what America could get for that amount of money: We could solve the school budget crisis in every community in America. Or we could provide health insurance for every uninsured American child for 15 years. Or we could feed all 6 million children who die from hunger worldwide for the next 7 years. "

So first off, this is more journal then update, but also update, and u wont know who im talking about, but if u know me u can probably assume i really enjoy the company of anyone i speak about on here. Or hang around in general and thats really what the point of this little journal entry. (I really just write to myself to convince me of things i cant quite convince myself of with talking. yes i am crazy)

Also this is not the first time i have felt this way, but its sort of a different situation, there is time to step back and look, there is time to meet with people on one on one basis. So this isnt the first and it wont be the last, but i need to learn how to do it.


and it begins

-The other day I was talking to Becky and a group of kids, telling them that I felt I hadnt fallen for anyone yet. (how odd it is) Part of that was true, I mean I havent had any of those nights, or maybe every night has been and I've forgotten the difference. Truthfully I do love...

-I told Ona to stop saying nice things to me, quit giving me a big head (ego wise). Too late. Its odd though, hung up on one's self in attitude, but craving honesty, truthful deep connections. All I can think of is wishing to get to know people better, and being able to share with the, all the beauty, every second of goodness they've given to me, more even.

-There is a problem here. I love, but have a big head, and lack the words to express, give back. Also, maybe I dont know these people, maybe i cant share. Maybe its all in my head. Maybe its because they are so beautiful, like honestly incrediby gorgeous girls. Maybe im mistaking their gentle smiles, so easy on the eyes, maybe its mistaken for love. Maybe i've taken shallowness to a new level. Maybe Im under a spell like all these other boys (too afraid to think im on their level) and yet, I wonder why I ignore these very same ones i love, i even credit myself for looking out for the underdogs, cuz they are everybit as capable of bringing down the house as these others. every bit as capable to seduce with natural beauty, and yet we swoon for some. As we should of course, cuz the beautiful are still human (beautiful) . contradictions

-Maybe just too damn close to understand. Sometimes with distance comes clarity.

greetings from my luffy, i cant tell ya exactly what im talking about cuz well you know, 4 sailors sitting in resonance of a sofa. Its an odd time, tell tale signs of insanity. no really.

We stayed up all night, went to breakfast with hat and a camera, woke up others, spoke giberish and smelled funny.


I have nothing to offer, i have been talking too much, but i like these cats i like em a lot. Peace and love

There is this thing in people, in children like us especially, (our egos havent been tortured enough, our pride still rides high) we tend to block out all signs of a problem until it blows up in our faces.

with negative signs of any kind we must reevaluate, Understand we are gambling.

I think the reason certain substances are tricky is because they keep you from reevaluating.

I woke up today feeling wonderful thanks to a dream i had, which reminded me of my love for people. It was quite nice. Many interesting things happened today in terms of me being questioned about my masculenity, which doesnt bother me. I realized i tend to play into certain stereotypes and because sometimes people dont have any other frame of reference except that of the stereotypes they know, it becomes unclear, and i often dont clear the confusion up unless it is directly questioned.

The other day they had the first vegan potluck (spelling?) it was pretty interesting, nothin i could eat, but some great people watching and it helped me put some names to faces i have or will see on campus. It was a nice time, i think i will probably continue to attend.

Im a little unsure of hom much i want to apply myself this semester. Im a cautious person and it works for me most of the time.

My dad is coming to see me on sat. im currently doing laundry.

Things have slowed down but still continue. We played capture the flag tonight, a sort of weekly thing. Im sort of becoming hooked the attention or affection of certain people. Which is weird, i hardly know them, can rarely talk to them. I miss music, i will soon bring more. I want my lil brother to visit. I want to have more time to chill. I think i may even want to stay in college for a few more years. Maybe after 3-4 i will be sick of it but maybe i will want to continue. maybe i can be a super senior.
whats the rush? i think i miss a lot of things/people and dont want to admit it. Its not draining to miss them and such so it hasnt forced me to do anything about it. Dont know what i'd do if i was forced.

I was hoping for less busy work, spanish and logic are all exercises. I need to go write observations on people. I need a better understanding of spanish and someone to speak it with. but not online like nova would like. I think in person spanish is much nicer.

I think i need to go pick up my laundry.

some unfinished poems from today's poetry club

####################

we twinge and gasp
grasp
and land upon a fiction
mild enchantment
seeming sound but void of reason
and so with game in play we continue into treason of our very nature biased information plague never-ending bring about the last season

In spite of truth
we fight
narrowing our vision
examples lay
in the food we eat, words spoken to our nation
catastrophe is simple burdened by causation and in truth it lays in minds misinterpreting bones to cause sensation

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Sadly depth of thought burdens none but the dead or dying
and so to grace our present with a choice of silence
vanished in those cells the voice of all cherished caged significance

&&&$$$$$((((((((($$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Chased-----> Already found new pride new strength
A voice
new ride
new sides to take, face slide into temptation
new place, new journey, rare shared by invitation
new form, new cloak, new rome or roaming ration
new race, new chase barred by litigation

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

And in pain
elapsed season after season
solitary evidence of one moment shroud in confusion

separated self
comatose consciousness
shocked into the dreary maddening emotionless

conformed
impressions of the entirety
judged in numbness

Enlightenment delayed
perchance
perhaps forever

looked upon as unfullfilled
unlock to find the treasure of a broken malnourished potential

salivate but do not taint
support against the weather often known to blow such potential over

unexcused unused roots broke now laid in clover
