It’s just too hard.

Probably one of the greatest no-actual-dialogue films of all time. :-D Love it. Own it. Watched the documentraies and special features. Watched the movie multiple times. Love Pink Floyd.

I cannot tell you how MUCH I LOVE Pink Floyd. They are amazing, amazing, amazing.

Word of advice: Don’t /download/ their stuff— they are waaay too good to steal from. Buy the albums. See the movie The Wall. As a starter album, I’d go with Dark Side Of The Moon. That was my first and then I worked backwards and forwards from there. Wish You Were Here was second— amazing. Then Atom Heart Mother… Love, love, love Pink Floyd. That band in all it’s forms (original, added Gilmour, post-Syd Barret, post-Roger Waters)... Pink Floyd is incredibly incredible… That’s all I can say.

Apparently, my mum can do it. :-P Not to like me or anything, but she does it to people like for her job letters and blah blah. It’s pretty funny.

That takes me back… Wow was Pippi Longstocking corny… Lol. Loved Pippi Longstocking… :-D

I LOVE HARRY POTTER!!!!!!

Probably one of THE greatest series.

I think it’s worth doing in the moment… but (mayb it’s just me) I think that if you look back in 3 years, you’ll read it and kind of cringe— especially because you probably aren’t in the same place yu were when you wrote it so you’re kind of like “Wow did I exaggerate” or “Wow was I a cornball”. But if you want to write poetry specifically (see, I wouldn’t call myself a poet. I like poetry, but usually not my own (except for this English project I did, but we mostly had to use formulas given to us (it was really cool, I got an A))). Where was I….?

Well, poetry’s great. Just write, have fun.

I play along with my cd’s. You can look for guitartabs on line.

Example: go to your favoutire search thing cough-google-cough and type in the name of the artist or song that you want to play— say, Pink Floyd or Led Zepplin or Chris Isaak or the Clash… Anyway, type in band/artist/song guitar tabs. Click on a site yadda yadda yadda. Then, to learn to play the chords, go to http://www.chordfind.com/

Don’t even bother figuring out notes either— use tabs. They’re a lot easier to read and play along to. Notes are… blech. And I’m in band, so it’s not like I’m saying it ‘cause I can’t read them (I can)— Tabs are better.

I haven’t gone in about… hmmm. over two years. Maybe four? Don’t know, don’t care! I just know I’ll never set foot in one ever, ever, ever and that I’ll try and discourage others from going.

Sweats, a t-shirt and comfortable sneakers. You don’t need the reflective, neon skin tight wet-suit type things… Keep it simple.

Sometimes people just do/say really stupid or ignorant or just flat out obnoxious and unecessary things. >:-1…

I’ll work on it.

If I run really fast backwards around the world… lol, jk.

It’s mostly just books that I’ve started and need to find time for. However, I still have to finish /watching/ Full Metal Jacket. The problem was that I was like an hour and a half into and it was after midnight and I was only half way through… so I went to bed. It was good so far though. :-D

It’s really hard with a one syllable name like ‘Grace’. The best I can get is ‘Gracie’ from adults, but that doesn’t count.

I’ve been /told/ I’m paranoid… I prefer to call myself cautious…

I used to do this. I actually used to run an average of five miles every day, but then I decided to cut it down to three and if I missed a day I would have to make it up.

Everyone worries about conditioning and building up to the amount you want. Forget about the standard methods. Go out there and run. Run when you’re sad or angry or when you just feel like it. Just do it.

I used to run all the time when I was in elementary school. I used to love it too. I was fast. I used to run so fast that I would fall because my body would be ahead of my legs, but I loved doing it anyway.

And then in fourth grade my teacher wanted me to do the Hershey Track Meet. I didn’t want to, but I showed my mum and dad what a stupid thing she was trying to make me do and they forced me into it to. I picked short distance events, but my teacher forced me into doing longer ones.

I think there were about six or seven runners. I needed to come in atleast third to pass to the next round or whatever. /I/ need to come in atleast second to feel worth something. But I came in fourth. Fourth place…

And that’s when I stopped running.

I was in South Africa for two weeks with my dad and I was just sitting outside looking at the stars and BAM! A shooting star. They really do have rainbow trails (or whatever it’s called. A tail maybe…)... beautiful.

It sounds sick and wrong— like I have some sort of psychological I don’t even know what. It also probably sounds like I’m /overly/ competitive (which is actually true, but shhh!). Anyway, my point is that I’m not a horrible or crazy person, I’m technically not even ‘fat’ (says everyone) but it depends on how I feel and all my friends are pretty lean (compared to me atleast) and sometimes I don’t even like hanging out with them because I feel so awful.

And of course all we do is talk and EAT (sometimes we walk but it’s not like a calorie burning work-out walking… and we’re usually eating at the same time).

I need to stop using parenthesis.

I actually did start to get back into it. I used to draw nonstop when I was like ten (I think). Maybe it was even later than that. Twelve… hm. Anyway, I actually did do a bunch of oil paintings which turned out pretty great (/I/ think). But I’ll check it off once I stick with it because I haven’t done it in a couple of weeks.
