how far that little candle throws his beams




(auduban magazine)

its been a whole week
i feel guilty for having ignored my journaling duties. 

but
life has been relaxing yet uneventful. 

i've had lunches 
with cindy and visited the new americana mall (which in fact, is an exact replica of the grove) and had dinner at green leaves vegan  in los feliz with julie where i had surprisingly good soy beef dish.

but mostly
i've been lounging around, being tickled with butterflies in my stomach from the impending first day of school on monday. so curiously excited.

and also bracing myself 
for a heavy weekend with birthday's, and people coming into town. 

some documentaries i've watched over break
dark days (fantastic)
surfwise (amazing)

ballet
i am obsessed and i think its so beautiful, this dance form. 

formatting
perhaps thinking paragraph format would be better for my entries.

*edit*
i just finished watching stone reader. an old documentary film about a reader's quest to find the missing writer of "the stones of summer." oh- so grand this movie! its a beautiful tribute to readers and writers and it makes me silly with happiness.

the river's burning and the trees are on fire

today
finished cleaning my room, and put up new pictures on my wall

borders
the accessory department has gone up a big notch. big. a gallery of neat paperchase items which i think are fun and playful.

peta
watched an enormous amount of peta videos and i'm so deeply disturbed. very deeply. and so very disturbed. and sad. 

will begin reading
