SUNDAY?

Daddy, I want them.

Musical training is a more potent instrument

than any other, because rhythm and harmony

find their way into the inward places of the soul;

on which they mightily fasten, imparting grace,

and making the soul of him who is rightly educated graceful,

or of him who is ill-educated ungraceful;

and also because he who has received

this education of the inner being

will most shrewdly perceive omissions

or faults in art and nature,

and with a true taste,

while he praises and rejoices over

and receives into his soul the good,

and becomes noble and good,

he will justly blame and hate the bad,

now in the days of his youth,

even before he is able to know the reason why;

and when reason comes he will recognise

and salute the friend with whom his

education has made him long familiar.

-Plato, The Republic, Book III

my private life

"although one might wish otherwise, in dreams what is important is not the images. what matters is the impression produced by the dream. the images are minor; they are effects.

along the way we smiled at each other. i remember the feeling, waking and knowing, and now, knowing that some thing else happened. along the way, i left you on a porch nearby your mothers house. i could never quite trace your laughter. it was too big for me. the sun and i apologize for everything. you, always, with affection, press onto my dreams."

One of the best this is sand creations I have seen.

So, I just happened upon Urban Outfitters summer catalogue, and though I am not a UO connoisseur or anything, I really do like a lot of what they have got in store for summer 2010. It is kind of a dress overload, but I like dresses because they make me feel more girly than I actually am. The may catalogue revolves around a lot of florals, pastel colors and high waisted items, not to mention a shit load of dresses and sandals. Check this out, it's kind of a brief overview of everything and it will give you all a chance to scope out what you may want to buy!

Items, in order across.

Kimichi Blue Halflight Dress
Silence & Noise Luster Dress
Pins and Needles Chiffon Dropwaist Dress
Pins and Needes Chiffon Maxi Dress
Fletcher by Lyell Romper
Thistlepearl Chiffon Dress
Quail Florette Bomber
Sparkle & Fade Sheer Chiffon Tunic
Urban Renewal Narrow Leather Belt

Summer, summer, summer when there's no school and I'm so incredibly free from inhibition.

Hurry please.

I have been at Manhattan School of Music all day . . . sitting, singing and drinking juice. I took my ear training final earlier today, and don't think I failed which is a major accomplishment on my part, seeing how my teacher is a 70 year old black dude who hums to himself and tells us that if we get one question wrong, we fail. Then I went to this deli by my school, got a salad and sat in this super cool park after I met with my fwend Fresca. There was this boy in the park near where I was sitting playing the cello and singing; he was so good and clearly enjoyed what he was doing. That's what I want. To be able to be happy doing whatever it is that I am doing, and not let others tell me what's best for me. I feel like I say this all the time, but I just can't get it through my head. Oh yeah, I also had my dress rehearsal for my musical theater class and I don't know my lines still . . . no biggie. Well I have to go to theory now and watch my teacher play the saxophone and listen to music performed by artists who were clearly tripping on some crazy shit.

She's old enough to know, and young enough not to say no.

Not liking people is not a trend. Yeah, weird huh? Walking around the halls of my school, I literally hear mad people being like, "Oh man, I fucking hate everyone." Okay . . . so you don't like people, cool. You say this, yet you walk around acting like you're completely untouchable and pretend to be all fake; so you totally hate everyone, right? I'm not a hypocrite because I say this and yes, I do actually hate majority of the people who I have to be around. My friends are the closest people to me, and some of the only people I can tolerate at this point. I'm so sick of stupid bitches who live in a shell, a sequined, Juicy Couture shell. My friends and I hear people say some shit and wonder how anyone can be so ignorant . . . and then there are those people who's presence and voices in general make me want to take my desk and jam it down their throat. We're almost out. Be cool.
YOU TOTALLY KNOW WHO YOU ARE.
