peacebone in my head

weeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

i feel so inflated with inspiration.
i love deanna staffo and her work and her wedding and her life. she makes me want to attend MICA and get married and exit the reception gracefully on a bicycle.
also ben's vast knowledge of the artistic world is uber exciting. i actually feel as if i am eating delicious desserts when i take in art. wonderful.

skidmore is seeming like a fantastic option at this point! but so are the others! yay optimism. screw oberlin hahaha.

i think that i am going to decide here and now that i will not do track this spring. i will be sad not to be with haya or katie or molly or mel etc. and to not ever see how fast i really can run. buuuut chances are that haya would be weird (plus she's only in indoor anyhow) and that katie and molly would be caught up in XC cliques or whatever. and chances also are that i wouldn't sleep well and get injured anyhow. boo pessimism, but it is just realism in this case.
plus, i just know i won't be able to/want to make the committment at this point. i will NEED TO visit a bunch of schools in april, and i will need to think a lot. also i will have one million APs to take and consumer to do (eeek) and other responsibilities. it makes so much sense NOT to do it.

so...
ideas for a BEAUTIFUL SECOND SEMESTER:

1. run and swim on my own!
2. find a yoga class.
3. take a sunday art institute class? (unlikely, well then) evanston art center?
4. listen to more music (ben's, haha)
5. go to more concerts!
6. crack into that long-ass reading list i've developed.
7. ditto with films.
8. go shopping more--thrift stores-- and experiment with my appearance heheh.
9. organize social events (dinner party, art fieldtrip/indian food/sleepover, swimming reunion)
10. contribute more to INTERACT (meaning, really come to all events possible.)
11. contribute more to clubs in general (join enviro club, STAND)
12. make own earrings!
13. alter furniture! (sell it?) beginning with that old wooden stool.
14. do more serious research/thinking on colleges.
15. do consumer ed...blah..bogus.
16. get a part time job? that i could do in the first part of the summer and on college breaks
17. IMPROVE ORGANIZATION. actually CLEAN ROOM, closet, papers.
18. learn how to better manage time and prioritize. do what i need to first, then get to fun stuff. :]
19. have a garage sale?
20. learn how to be a more efficient worker
21. write!! for helicon, for myself. also for scholarships! haha
22. learn how to COOK! cook dinners, learn more about vegetarian or vegan foods, and get familiar in da kitchen.
23. ENJOY THE LAST PART OF HIGH SCHOOL :/ :] :[[ :O

Animal Collective--Peacebone

A Peacebone got found in the dinosaur wing
Well I’ve been jumpin in all over, but my fuels are slowly shrinking
It was a jugular vein in a juggler’s girl
It was supposedly leaking most interesting colors

Well half of my fingers
are dipped in the sand
You’re progressin letters that you use to cook your brocoli
The other side of takeout is mildew on rice

And an obsession with the past is like a kid flying
Just a few things are related to the old times
When we did believe in magic and we didn’t die
It’s not my words that you should follow, it’s your insight
Insight You trust your

I bet the monster was a-happy when we made him a maze
Cause he don’t understand intentions a-he just looks at your face
And then the bubbles exploded and tickled the bath
And all the birds were very curious all the fish were at the surface

Well half of me waiting for myself to get calm
I’m like a pelican at red tide
I’m a corpse, I’m not a fisherman
A blow out does not mean I will have a good night

Well I start in a hose and I end in a yard
And when I feel like I’m stealing I can keep myself from hearing God
I need the taste that you’re cookin could make me bow on the ground
It was the clouds that called the mountains
It was the mountains that made the kids scream

Well she wore all her apartments
She never was found
You think you’re talkin about the New York
To be an artist, but are you anything
You find out that you can’t ask a baby to cry
