I had a dream last night that I had to save this sweet, sad-looking kitty from its owner.......He was after her (I'm asssuming the cat was female), because she could play the piano......he hoped to make millions off of her.......
I saved her though.....

(By the by, the mouse I am using here at school sucks)

Well, it's been like ten thousand days since I've updated, and almost as many since I have read other epeeps' journals......
There's so much to catch up on.....
I've missed estrip world.

For now, I have to get started on a paper......but, may I just say:

1) Matthew, your collages are BEAUTIFUL.......(I think the heron and the panda are my favorite)

2) Jesse, am I to believe that you are going to be home this weekend?.....tomorrow even?.....good, I'm in great need of a big heaping dose of Jesse........(SPano, Zach, Kasopolitz, Olczak, whatever you got)

3) Paul, I'm totally amazed by how cool this site is......and now you're a superstar (what with making it onto the pages of the GUsto and all)....and I can say I knew him when....and I will.......ahhhhh , celebrity by association

4) Really, those collages are lovely....

THat's all for now, I have work to do and naps to take.......

AAAAAAHHHHH, I forgot how much I loved the sketch feature.......It makes a journal entry much more satisfying.......I'm not much of a word person.

Not much to wite about really,

Today, I made the mistake of sitting next to a gentlemen with a massive poof of hair.
He was writing a letter to his Spanish girlfriend (in Spanish too), I was quite impressed....he hardly opened the Spanish/English dictionary by his side.
All the while he was writing he was twisting and digging and just generally disturbing his curly moptop.
.....strands, and at times small clumps of hair floated down to the table, landing inches from my hand.
What does one do in such a situation?...
I tried to put as much distance between myself and the hair-puller, but you can only lean over so far before you start to creep out the girl next to you,
So I just dealt with it......
Not at all pleasant though.

First day of classes.....not much to say.
My class schedule is all screwed up......but it always works out so no worries I guess.
I'm taking a class called "War and Postmodernism".......our assignment for Wed. is to research postmodernism and be able to define (or at least describe it)
.....I was under the assumption that postmodernism was this incredibley abstract yet ridiculously multi-layered concept.........understand it by Wed....yay, that's gonna happen....
so if any of you thinkers have any thoughts on the subject (Terry, Ajay, Holly,etc) I would appreciate your input........
I
