Hm. I am supposed to write three journals a week for English class. I am not certain what to do. I only write when I have something to say. I'm not one of those girls who go home and scribble furiously about their latest crush, who was being a female dog at school. It seems to me that if you want to write something down, why not say something meaningful? Or at least not whiny. When I write, I like to think that somewhere along the timeline, someone will read my musings and say nice things about it like, "Wow, this chick is deep!" or more meaningful like, "It's like she sees y problems and delves into the heart if them." This is the legacy I wish to leave. Maybe I am a little young to be thinking about death, but maybe not. If we don't know when we go, is it ever really too early? I think not, why live frivolously, when I can live as I please, for the most part, and leave people with something about which to think?
Along the same lines, going into public places troubles me. As I look upon the masses of young people, all I see is the same thing. Same clothes, same hair, same tan... Obviously, no one is completely original, but I think it is the subtle variations that make us us. I am trying to make this understandable. Based on the theory that how you dress expresses yourself, then if you dress like everyone else, what is it that you are saying? I know that I probably dress much like the urban demographic. I realize this. I think the part that makes it interesting is what I choose to do with it. I see kids wearing Aero, or Abercrombie, or AE and I just have to wonder who THEY are. I see none of them in their labeled tee shirts and name brand jeans.
This is how I feel, think of it what you will.
Love

Listening to: Lovedrug's album Sucker Punched and Queens of the Stone Age's Lullabies to Paralyze
Still reading the same books I was yesterday :)
