6:27 pm - TO ALL MY LJ FRIENDS:
|
Over the past month or so, I have noticed an increased amount of "nudges" and although I really appreciate that, I know that I will only post a few entries then stop again or all my entries will be one-liners.
I think it is time to officially say my goodbyes to livejournal...however, I would still like to keep in touch...please send me emails at fragmented_image@yahoo.com.
TO: aurienne and lights_out: Please keep in touch as I miss you the most and I miss hearing about your "everyday."
love. steph.

12:17 pm - i got choked by a russian...
|
it's amazing how helpless a girl can feel in situations like this. i mean, we were in a bar and he had me in a headlock and it was even funny for a bit...and then i realized, after telling him to let me go a few times, that i was having a hard time breating. so there i am - waving my hands in front of my face like an idiot. my friend david saw what was going on and came over and got me away from him...i coughed for a bit then i was fine. when i told meg what happened - she went to go fuck with him, which caused tim to get involved...needless to say, we had to leave the bar as everyone was afraid of a fight...and all over little ol' me. what a way to spend a friday night.
but seriously, i have this huge fear of rape and even though the guy was just playing a bit rough - i got freaked out. everything happened so fast that i didn't think about any thumb in the eye or foot in the crotch manuevers - i just stood there waving my hands in my face as he laughed in my ear and drunkenly said "ilooooveyooo"...

6:31 pm - it's been a while...
|
thanks for the nudge, marion :)
it's been a long time since i've posted in here, partly because i feel like i'm always on the computer and partly because i have a hard time writing what i really want to write, so i tend to post a bunch of one liners...and even though those are great! (and by great - i mean the most amazing things ever!) i feel like my life has become a one-liner...does that make sense. i want something "real" to happen.
btw, YAY for me! i won a grant from the maryland state arts council. i'm gonna buy equipment, just not sure what - i've always been on a shoestring budget and i'm super thrifty...i hope this doesn't make me tech nerd (anymore than i already am)...
there are so many things i want to do - i've been trying to apply to everything i can get my hands onto...i want to try something new for a year (or more).
i miss jarod. it was nice to hang out with someone irresponsible - i feel like i always take myself sooo seriously - i want to fuck up, make mistakes...BE HUMAN.
i feel stagnant...

4:01 pm - so close and so distant at the same time.
|
i feel like there is a lot and nothing happening all at the same time. i am in this constant push/pull relationship with life...stuck at the tension in the middle.
i always say that the worst place to be is comfortable....but perhaps, this time - it's biting me in the ass.

5:24 pm - ebay and asians - the most amazing combination EVER!!!
|
|
so jason showed me the ebay song, which is awesome!!!...both the lyrics and the song reference and he started singing along with the lyrics and i said something about the original song and he didn't know what i meant...so i google - The BackStreet Boys "I Want It That Way" and "two chinese students" was the first link that appeared. i click on it and it was the most amazing thing i had ever seen: two chinese students lip syncing to the back street boys...and that's not even the amazing part - the amazing part is the person in the background playing video games completely unaware of what was happening...i've never laughed so hard.

11:52 am - YES to bike and exercise in spring...unsure of next week?
|
i've decided that in the spring when it gets warm out...not only am i going to run again, but i'm going to get a bike. i need to be more active...if i watch another movie i think my hair might fall out.
i can't decide if i want to go to my sisters for thanksgiving or not...
pros - i get to see her new house, she makes food, get my own room and lots of work done (hopefully), spend quality time with my sister.
cons - 8 hours drive there, 8 hours drive back, gas money, we could get in a fight, could theoritically get more work done here and no big thanksgiving dinner if i stay.
hmmm...i'm so undecided - i think she will be upset if i don't go and i will be upset if i go and don't get any work done...too many deadlines, not enough time.

2:19 am - like woah.
|
i went out dancing on friday and my ears are still ringing!!!
i'm so lazy. too tired to do work and too anxious to go to sleep. however, i did all my laundry - which was an all weekend adventure...it will feel nice to put clean clothes on tommorrow.
j is trying to organize a new media/performance event in may and i'm thinking that if everything gets approved and the event actually does happen that i might do my very first live performance...i imagine it to be 5-8 hours...i wonder if i could possibly keep my eyes closed for that amount of time.
i've been to the movie theater 3 times this past week...and i've watched 3-4 netflix movies - no wonder i don't get any work done.

2:39 pm - not the "best" friend.
|
so apparently i am notorious for making plans with friends and then cancelling at the last minute because "i have too much work to do"...and apparently not only is this my excuse for everything but it is also rather annoying. and on top of everything, why should my friends call me if i apparently NEVER answer my phone...hmmm.
and...i'm so awesome - that this exact thing has been told to me by more than one person.
it hurts when people tell me that they wish that for once i would put them ahead of my work - that i am constantly donating my time to anonymous students/friends...and never making time for them. i would much rather be hanging out, i suppose i just feel like they only want me to hang out when it's convienent for them...whatever - i have work to do.

4:58 pm - back and rested!
|
texas was so much fun...even though we mostly just watched movies and drank...and since my friend is not "artsy" in the least bit - i feel like i got a MUCH needed break. i seriously think he owns more polos than i have ever seen anyone own...it's like a j crew ad (haha). it didn't even feel like i was in texas...i mean, add some palm trees and bikers, and i seriously would have thought i was in florida - no joke.

in exchange for a business card design, he is going to help me with marketing myself as an artist - or at least tell me what i'm doing wrong...

12:09 am - no nuin na chin-gu (you are my friend).
|
somethings gotta give. i work too much...and it's not even that much...just i work too many hours. i had a fit this morning with the lady from carmax. i was trying to make an appointment and apparently i can't even drop my car off because you have to pick it up by a certain time...and i work till late. the belts on my car sound like they are going to take off and i can't even do anything about it. and i can't take my car to another shop because i don't make enough money at my jobs to pay for it. i believe that is a catch 22...hmmm.
i probably need to A - stop spreading myself so thin and B - take a break...which i will get this weekend - YAY!!! i'm going to texas to see my friend brian, from college. i haven't seen him since before i left florida and i CAN'T WAIT! we never really hung out that much because we went to different schools but we talked on the phone all the time and got together when we could...i have to say that he is probably one of my most consistent friends...i meet him within a month of moving to deland. i've known him since i was 18. we never dated because the timing was never right and i don't think that i ever wanted to either - we live in two different realities, but i think that is why i've always liked him. he's totally yuppy and i wouldn't have it any other way. he's brotherly, except i have hooked up with him in the past so that's weird, but you know what i mean. anyways.
*here's to old friends staying friends when it doesn't make sense why their friends or how they even became friends!
other good news - the koreans are teaching me korean! i love it.

4:48 pm - it's like i am seven.
|
|
i was running last night...in the dark and without my glasses so i couldn't see real well - with me being blind and it being dark out and all. i heard a car coming fast. i jump over to the sidewalk and half a block down under a tree the concrete reached up and grabbed my foot. first my knees hit the grounds and then both my palms...embedded gravel and all...i got up, said "shit" and continued along my route. it's like i'm 7, bruised-scrapped knees and skid marks on my palms.

2:04 pm - hmmm...
|
oddly enough...after reading and correcting papers all day, i don't have much will power to keep this journal as updated as i should...
however, i do have enough time to spend money - on wonderful things such as a 5:1 surround sound system...i'm gonna make art with it - i want to do these 5 way conversation pieces...oh speakers are hot.
and it is official - i'm going to TEXAS next week to visit a friend of mine from college. when i told him i booked my ticket, his voice got all high like a girl. haha.

1:33 am - the calm after the storm.
|
everything seemed to calm down with the evening rain...
why is it i always want to go running when i can't and never what to go when i can?
i'm tired of grading papers...and kale is the best vegetable ever - i wish these two thoughts were related...would make for a much more interesting entry.
