I do not edit these at all. I just type out what I wrote down, which also wasnt edited. This blog is not me showing you (who are you, anyway?) stuff I consider perfectly formed or whatever, its just raw material. I tend to use these later on to make more fully formed things (songs, for example), but this is me sharing my first impression, sketches, and feelings with anyone and everyone.

She hugged me hard. Harder than I expected, and as hard as she should
have. A smile, sincerety, the kind of disjointed, flawed, and yet
earnest speech a québécois still learning english would sound like if
she felt love strongly and wanted to just get it out. Then, she turns
and walks away. I'm looking at her, will she turn her head my way as
she walks away. Thank you for your friendship, I love you. You taught
me to care for a woman without the fear and insecurity which comes
with wanting more than friendship. Thank you.

I walked down, and saw a wide stream. I sat on a rock right next to
the water. I looked around for a while, just sort of reflecting and
taking it all in. Explosions In The Sky were playing. Its not as
bittersweet as I thought; I love you and yet when I experience beauty
alone, it is not poisoned. Maybe I'm getting better at experiencing
things.

Its ending
The time
the time up until now, the last week or so, was filled with love and skin and intense things like that. Almost too much to handle. Anyway, im all over the place, in love. I guess I got what I wanted from Katimavik... But only at the very end. Arcadia is amazing, my whole world here is infectious. I want to do so many happy and awesome things when I get back. Ive got the place! its finalized. alright. Spose Ill seeya.

has his paintings here. He took all the photos of his friends (mostly
taken from facebook) and painted them portrait-style in black and
white. Then he painted simple lines and symbols on their faces, in
colour. I dont know how words are going to work here... Basically its
really cool. I am going to miss sault ste marie... Amazing people,
amazing local art and music and everything.

I like smelly smart people
Wait. Thats not what I meant.
I think I'm trying to say that I like people who are warm and friendly
to anyone, and never mocking or cruel. I like when people dont take
fashion too seriously. I like when someone looks strange and
unassuming and not typically beautiful. They can even smell funny. I
like this because these people tend to be kind, curious, funny,
comfortable with themselves, and non-judgemental.
Yeah.

You're an angel
I'm comin' over
But please don't laugh, don't say that it's okay
You're a plane crash
Blister, fever
You're a liar, a believer
But please don't laugh, don't say that it's okay
I cut your name from your mother's heart
I won't be late and i won't be caught
I try not to be someone to love
Didn't mean to bleed, but it's so damn tough
I played your heart, but i broke two strings
Jesus christ you're a lovely thing
Please remember to regret it
Don't be sorry, just forget it
And please don't laugh if i can't say your name
You're a plane crash with a pipedream
Ruby tuesday with a broke wing
And please don't cry
Like buildings in america
I cut your name from your mother's heart
I won't be late and i won't be caught
I try not to be someone to love
Didn't mean to bleed but it's so damn tough
I played your heart but i broke two strings
Jesus christ you're a lovely thing
I messed it up
I blew a kiss
And caught your breath
To see you ?
I cut your name from your mother's heart
I won't be late and i won't be caught
I'll try not to be someone to love
I didn't mean to bleed. it's so damn tough
I played your heart but i broke two strings
Jesus christ you're a lovely thing
Jesus christ you're a lovely thing

Sit back and let shit happen
Worry Less
If you like where its going, go with the flow.
Give in
let go
Think Less
Therefore Worry less.
Relax.
Thank you for giving me the chance to try out these new things.
the girl next to me at the airport was reading a book. I knew her life
was a story I wasnt in a position to learn about, so I just wrote down
the name of the book. I'm becoming better at seeing how everything and
everyone around me is beautiful and inspiring and complex.

I feel good. I'm sorry its been a while, my dad died and I met a girl.
Wow. Such a wierd statement. Anyway, I hung with bashu and basically
had the kind of days that make me feel good. Back to katimavik in the
soo, then 2 weeks later, back home! Wow. the airport has a beautiful
woman, and one I find interesting. I prefer the interesting one.

Can I ever fail properly?
What if everyones so goddamn open-minded that no one can fail?
Fuck that! Take your little feeling, and the opinion that it comes
with, and stop thinking its wrong to have it. Tell me! you can tell me
what you think without worrying about its subjectivity. If you know
its subjective, and, I know its subjective, and I KNOW you know, then
we are cool. I swear. I just wanna know you are a real person, say
something to make you a person :)

Look to this day
For it is life
The very life of life
In its brief course lie all
The realities and truth of existence
The joy of growth
The splendor of action
The glory of power.
For yesterday is but a memory
And tomorrow is only a vision
But today well lived
Makes every yesterday a memory of happiness
And every tomorrow a vision of hope.
Look well, therefore, to this day.

Genuienly thinking puns are clever
Selfishness
Self-pity
Not trusting people
Being uncomfortable with yourself
Hiding from parts of your mind which you are afraid of
Fear in general, actually.
Fashon as a way to hide yourself among a cultural group (even so-
called "counterculture" groups")
A lack of creativity
A lack of acceptance of others
Spurning knowledge as unneccicary
Hating those to whom you feel inferior... Envy
Blame shifting
Disregarding how a person feels for the sake of winning an argument
Judging, verbally and/or physically abusing, or otherwise giving a
hard time to people you haven't gotten to know, eg strangers.
