julia's art opening


When I see this photo, I think: Why do I ever leave the house without straightening my hair first? Sometimes I feel lazy and decide that it looks fine natural, and then I see a photo and think otherwise. People always tell me it's cute, but my personal opinion is that it looks terrible. Also when I see think photo, I think: blue tights!

I'm just a girl trying to figure some shit out. I don't even know what to write. I'm inspired by the new Florence and the Machine album. Did she write that for me? I'm inclined to think so. I'm in a period of transition. What does that mean? I don't know! Ask me again this time next year and see where I am.

I had a phone conversation this evening with a friend who is having a hard time. Said friend needs a change, and oh does that ring a bell in my soul. This friend wants to move to Portland and live on my couch for a little while. My heart spilled open for this friend, whom I love very much. Do I want someone living on my couch for a month? Not really. But do I know in my heart and soul what it feels like to so desperately long for change? I do. If I had a friend in San Diego that offered me their couch while I looked for work, I have no doubts that I would have been there a long time ago.

Teacher training in La Jolla would be a dream come true. Eight months of hard work, and pure bliss. My free spirit says 'go forth, little yogi', while my bank account says, 'what the fuuuuuuuuuuuuu--??'. Just two days ago, someone told me that I was blessed to be so in touch with my soul. Well, it's a blessing or a curse, depending on how you look at it. Green paper is just another form of energy, this person said. Yes, but you need it! How can I find a way around this? I'm thinking....

wednesday

Wow. I have so much to write. So much to say, while it's still fresh in my heart. Here's the abbreviated version- I'll write more when I have more time.

I got home from a five day trip to San Diego yesterday. The trip to San Diego ended up also turning into a trip to Los Angeles (I love spontaneity). We were all over the place. The trip was productive and also tons of fun. I met some wonderful new people. Genuine souls. I am a wanderer. Need to wander. I will wander soon.

To be continued...

So shake him off"
