So pretty. I love these simple ornaments by We Are Land Rich.

I want to make these.

We can make these, easy. I really mean it this time. Well… I mean it all the time, but this would be super easy to make. As in, five minutes, tops.

“Everybody knows that you’d break your neck to keep your chin up.”

They are breaking up. Possibly another studio album this year, followed by a final tour this spring. Maybe you can go with Sarah and I.

p.s. Aaron spit in my mouth when I saw them in Indy several years ago.

Transitions and Endings / New Beginnings

Tue, 01 Dec 2009 12:47:40 -0500

austinspeaks:

So I’ve got the go-ahead from the parents to transfer to ISU next fall. It’s something I’ve been contemplating since the end of the summer, and I feel it will be the right decision. Each semester here at Ball State has been more disappointing than the last, and no matter how much I told myself next semester would be better, it simply wasn’t. I’ve got a lot of shit going on internally and right now being home is the only place where I feel centered and happy. I’ve still got two years left because of a couple missed credits and I feel that finishing up strongly at home will be much easier on me both emotionally and academically.

As much as it’s going to hurt me to leave my BSU friends behind, I can no longer continue to put all of my energy into making the best of a place I hate at the expense of sacrificing my own happiness and academic success. This semester will be the first time in my entire life that I don’t get any A’s, and I realized that it’s because I’ve been so miserable that the only thing I cared about was trying to make each day not be terrible by focusing solely on social things. I wish I could tell you what it is about Muncie and Ball State that doesn’t work for me, but I feel it’s so much more complicated than I can accurately convey.

I’ve developed a reputation here in Muncie as being a tremendously negative and hateful person, and I don’t want to be that anymore. I just can’t afford to be; it’s too emotionally draining. I need to get home and get back to who I used to be. I need to get back on track.

Though I’m not transferring for six more months and I’m still quite some time from saying goodbye to the people here I’ve come to care about, I still feel a need to recognize them as being the only reason I’ve survived here this long. They’ve put up with my sober and drunken rants, my poor attitude, my constant need for attention, and yet still somehow managed to want me around.

I love them all and thank them with all that I am.

While I failed miserably at achieving my goal of attending Brooklyn College my senior year to finish up, I also came to realize how unrealistic that goal really was. My family simply can’t afford to subsidize my life in the city even if I got a job to help, and my grades would never net me any scholarships, let alone in a college in a city as competitive as New York.

While I’m on the subject, I’ve reached a point where I no longer have any real goals or dreams, nor do I have any idea of whether or not I still intend to become a social studies teacher. I’m in a sort of ‘blank slate’ state that is equal parts unnerving and empowering. I’m trying to use this as an opportunity to rebuild rather than drop out of the game altogether. I’m hoping going home to my family and friends and starting fresh at ISU with 70-some credit hours will enable me to find some clarity in my life.

There is a lot going on behind the scenes in my life and there is still so much work to be done. Here’s to new beginnings.

Here’s to the future. I hope I can get it right.

Big changes are often necessary. Don’t let anyone give you shit for moving back home.

Perfect.

I wish I had dreams, or at least remembered them if I did.

I love this. I’m not sure on the process used, but it looks as though it is collage that has been painted over. I like the idea of this, mixing images with created/creating.
