sappy sap.



I found out last night, while I was really drunk and excited, that a website that Jilliam posted awhile ago was part of an artistic project that Miranda July worked on, who made the movie Me and You and Everyone We Know. Although the movie sucks, I really like her website. It's heartwarming. If you're feeling down, go look at it. You can see people's submissions for things like "take a picture of your parent's kissing" and shit like that. Although my parents aren't kissing in this picture I'm sure they did right after. It's nice to see a picture of my parents at a party...

CONGRATULATIONS!



CONGRATS on being done school Krista! And everyone else that finished. Sarah, Nicole...and anyone else I can't think of. YEA!

And aren't you beautiful Krista. You're hair looks so nice. I wish I could have been there to celebrate.


Being out of school is great. During the beginning of the week, when it rained for three days, me, mike and graeme just hung out in out pjs and fat girl pants while watching movies and eating pizza.

When it got sunny, me and Mike have started to move his stuff over to my house for the summer. Besides that, the last couple of days has consisted of getting drunk at 4 in the afternoon while sitting out on the porch, although it's kinda cold. This week is only going to get better. Mike's birthday is on Monday so we are having a party at his old empty apartment on Saturday. Woooweeee.

I'm trying to convince Graeme and Mike to go with me to the Biodome and the Botanical Gardens to see butterflies in the greenhouse. Maybe maybe. Time to go to a church bazzzzarrrrr to get some good stuff.

BYE!

"we're on like totally separate pages. while your on some nancy drew book, i'm on some raymond chandler novel."

yeaaaaaaaa. i'm done!

but other than that nothing much is going on. bought some clothes yesterday. going to a parta tonight. waiting for the dye in my hair to be ready. went to see final fantasy last week with my new friend. got to see kira last weekend... nothing too eventful. but the summer will be fun.

oh, went to see the chair of the art history department. she is a really nice lady who told me that no one ever really gets jobs after doing their masters in art therapy, at least not anymore. i guess i kinda guessed it already but was just hopeful. so it's either a masters degree in art history at concordia or a school psychology/counselling psychology masters at McGill...or whereever. we'll see.


expect a call soon, now that i have loads of time.

alright. and now for some cute pictures, again. i really love her. she makes me happy.

and yes, i know, she looks like a little hussy in that princess full piece jogging suit. but she's a baby!






i think she looks funny in that swing. like a little sack of potatoes. i like how one of her favorite toys is a friggin wooden spoon.

AAARRR



by Christopher Silas Neal.


About half an hour ago I was so stressed. I got up at 6 this morning to register for classes and it took of ever to get into the site to register (almost 3 hours...) because so many people were registering. The thought of having all my studio classes set back another year was too much for me to handle...

The more I plan for the classes that I need to take the more I wonder what the hell I'm doing...


Anyway, I got into all the classes I wanted, well most of them, and it proved to me once again that I get so unnecessarily anxious sometimes - I am a wiener!

WIENERS!

(By the way, puptastic has some funny pictures of dogs, if you scroll down a bit. Like puppies dressed up as brides.)

I have a 12 page paper to write today (why else would I be posting something if it wasn't just to distract myself...) but it isn't that bad because I got to choose what I wanted to write about, and decided to write on craft, Helene Cixous, and Julia Kristeva, which are all things that I wanted to learn more about... I've found feminist criticism really interesting lately.

Like this (NERD!) from Helene Cixous...

Writing is the passageway, the entrance, the exit, the dwelling place of the other in me - the other that I am and am not, that I don't know how to be, but that I feel passing, that makes me live - that tears me apart, distrubs me, changes me, who? - a feminine one, a masculine one, some? - several, some unknown, which is indeed what gives me the desire to know and from which all life soars.

I know it's kinda cheesy, but I like it. All of her writing is fragmented and nice to read. It's a nice change from the boring academic readings that I've been doing lately.

I've drank so much coffee I'm going to pee my pants. BYEBYEBYEBEYBY!
