Birthday.

Thu Oct 22, 2009, 1:51 PM
Eighteen tomorrow, I guess that's exciting :]! I was actually asked on Sunday, I believe if I'm sad about leaving my "teenage" years and entering "young adult."
For now, I'm really happy and I cannot wait. Though, who knows. Maybe it'll be like that thing where when I was younger I couldn't wait to grow up and then once I did, I wished to death that I could be a little kid again and watch my Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles on the WB every Saturday morning at nine o'clock. But, for now, I'm excited. I'm thinking about uploading some photographs my dad and I took yesterday; I came to his place because I didn't feel like hanging around my mum's house by myself, and my dad decided he was tired of being cooped up in the house for weeks on end working on his system, and wanted to breathe in some fresh air. We went to a park about twenty minutes away. Oh, man. It was absolutely gorgeous outside and I couldn't help but to take pictures with my Enigma the Sigma, or as my friend Ferris calls him, Omega. So, I'll probably put them in scraps since I not a big fan of digital photography and it seems that most people are accustomed to me posted drawings and not photos, especially digital photos (speaking of drawing, I'm sorry I've been lacking. Not enough time? Something like that).
Speaking of birthday, I'm thinking about getting my tragus ([link])done, since it's only, like, five dollars.

In other news, there's a writing contest that I'm entering in hopes of winning some cash. First place gets five-hundred dollars; second place gets two-fifty. I'm entering the group of three poems category thing.
Poems entering: [link] [link] [link]
However, I've edited "White Frost" to: [link]

So, that's my mini update.
Oh, wait, also. I think I'm coming down with something. I've been drugging up like no tomorrow all day :<.

That something I've been coming down with is swine. woot.

MICA open house went well. Portfolio got accepted and all, but I still need to actually apply. Still need to work on space and not not including extremities-hands, feet, head- in my work.

Got kicked out of the SAT yesterday because my mother had forgotten to give me back my ID from when I went for my permit four weeks ago.

Outfest '09 today. Possibly the most fun I've had in a while (photos on Facebook).
New pack of Marlboros bought for me today. Life is good, good, good.

Dear New deviantART:

You are slow and take forever to load.
You are strange and force me to find the details on some pictures.
You look too much like Twitter and I don't appreciate.

Love,
child-proof.

Ps- I don't like you.

What the fuck was I thinking.

So, summer is coming to a close, senior year coming. I'm finally able to start applying to colleges and putting the finishing touches on my portfolio while also working on my AP.
I have to say, even though in some ways this summer wasn't necessarily one of my best, it was definitely memorable. Going to UArts for four weeks has reassured me that art school is what I want to do, and Nantucket was a nice escape from Philly, even though afterwords sort of killed it. I really enjoyed it... well, as much as possible, at least. It had it fun points. Like, adventures in the city, and town, and spontaneous trips to Atlantic City with my dad, and being denied taking my permit test, and having huge writing kicks, and drawing kicks, and being somewhat productive. somewhat. I still have yet to finish a painting from, like, May that I restarted. Maybe I'll actually finish it before school start (this is SO unlikely to happen).

And now, talking to the asshole I like about the asshole I like without giving him away.

Well, I just failed with that last part. Awesome.

And I ask

Who are you and where did you come from. Why are you yelling. Why are you fucking yelling.

You don’t answer. You stare with blank eyes. You weren’t even screaming to begin with.

And I pester

Why are you here. Can’t you see this is my home. Find your own broken down box.

You don’t move. You stare with quiet eyes. We’re in the middle of the suburbs not an ally way.

And I plead

Can you take me to the promise land? Can you free my soul? Can you led me away, away, away.

You don’t comment. You stare with mocking eyes. No one believes in religion anymore.

And I forfeit

Obviously you know something I do not. Obviously someone has taught you to disregard nonsense.

You get up and leave without a word.

And I stand there

Transfixed at what just happened. Clearly misunderstanding this stage of enlightenment by a man who probably never stood there.

And I rub my eyes

And come to the realization that

I am alone.
