sneakers!!!!!!

i just ordered new sneakers online last night. im concerned this may be the beginning of something very bad, yet very good....

i think i want at least one more pair, but a diffrent kind of course. the new ankle/leg situation means no heels for a while! ahhhhhh! but, with this weather, i don't get out of the hoodie, jeans and sneaks uniform much anyway.

in other news, i have lots of time on my hands, and find myself watching the OC non-stop, instead of packing. i have so much to do in the next three months!!!!! ok, no more apostrophes, i promise.

i really do have a lot to do, and need some motivation. i may go to target tomorrow and buy a docking system for my ipod. maybe music will help. maybe, if someone had purchased those, ahem, flower spyro spekers from jbl, i would already have music. imagine that!

i have learned two things today:

bad chinese is only good once a month.

aint nobody gon' do the dirty work for you.

and i love the OC.

people piss me off

what's new?

i keep running into people i don't want to see. i try to avoid them and then they talk to me. better yet, when i am wasted. whatever.

seriously, i hate when art professors try to tell me my work doesn't make sense. sorry i didn't take the easy way out and create some dumbass paper square bullshit, and my work acutally suggests that i have some talent. sorry im not a dyke who's into georgia o'keefe.

now i have to spend many more hours cutting paper squares, and trying to create something that will please the professor, because it's all about getting the "A" right?

and why are the absolutely no hot men in my life? or decent men at all?

when i say i might go gay, i really mean it this time. but i doubt they are any hot chicks either.

i hate black paper!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why are there no hot or decent men, Lilho?

Are you putting yourself out there? Making yourself available?

brit - 04/03/07 21:38
yo cankle......matt's presents got here at last!

metalpeter - 04/03/07 18:18
From what I understand it is very tough to find a decent man who is also hot, but I could be totally wrong about that. Do schools still Have figure drawing class? That is where some guy or maybe even girl poses nude in the middle of the room and desks circle around them. Or is that just in the movies. I admit I like art buy completely suck at it. In high school they did have Art History and Art Theory classes that really sounded boaring but just a regular art class was fun. The point of the class or any class is to learn but getting a good grade is important to, I wish you luck with everything.

dont just stand there, do something!
Category: helping

when did the world become filled with assholes?

probably a long long time ago. and im probabyl one of them.

but, when an old old man falls on the trasin tracks dowtown in the pouring rain and at least 20 people stand and do nothing; that is unacceptable. this makes me sick.

im glad i was there to help the poor guy up.

being 23 can suck. but im sure being old and rickety, and having nobody to help you get up from the tracks when a train is coming sucks way more. and in the pouring rain. im so sick of all of the dumb-fuck "suits" that think they are too busy to help someone.

i know im girly and into celeb gossip. but i wont ever sell out and think im too good to help someone out.

this makes me soooo mad. i don't understand why people will just watch and not help out. i see it all of the time. people who don't hold open doors, drivers in such a rush that they can't let someone cross the street. where is everyone rushing to? why is everyone suddenly more important than someone else?

being 23 really doesn't suck. but i never want to see myself turn into somebody who is totally selfish and impatient. that would suck.

i think not having a car, and seeing how people who are truly impoverished live, gives me a whole new perspective. i live a totally pampered and self-indulgent life. i want more than that. there are so many people that have so much less than me, and i need to stop wanting more. the only things i want more of, are love, friendship, and compassion. ok, i do want more cute dresses, and some alcohol and lipgloss, but if i truly am able to give back, i think i deserve it.

have a great weekend ya'll. and if you see someone in need, don't just stand there. DO SOMETHING!!!!!!!

You got soul. Excellent post

james - 03/24/07 14:23
God created man in his image, asshole and all. So we are made to be assholes. But, by our duel spiritual nature, you were able to transcend assholerly and help a fellow human being/asshole machine out. You are to be commended.

jenks - 03/24/07 12:10
Nice post. i'm with you 100%.

metalpeter - 03/24/07 11:51
(e:theecarey) makes a good point. But there are a few other factors that I think play into the entire not helping someone out. First of all there is that well if they needed or wanted help they would ask or say help. Another factor i think might be part of what Carey was talking about that sometimes people think that I should help but don't maybe they assume the person next to them will or just can't act on it. My understanding that mob rule or group think works the same way if you are marching with torches or standing doing nothing. There have been cases where 3 people have been beating on some guy and 30 people just stand around and watch. But if someone walks along and see what is going on them get envolumed can sometimes cause that to change. I also think that there is a generation thing going on. I think that we as Americans are much more issolated as a whole so that sense of community isn't there anymore. So before when someone needed help everyone would rush over. It is kinda like in the "old days" when if a kid was doing something wrong on the street and one of his mothers friends saw him she would scold him severly or smack him or what ever the punishment was then mom would do the same thing. But now if you see some kid rob another kid and you tell the parent its "oh my son would never do that" you hand them a picture of the kid and its like "oh thats not him". But maybe it is just me. I think it is good that you are mad that no one helped. I'm guessing if I saw an old guy fall I would just pass him buy to, even though I shouldn't.

behold the power of the group. human beings are pack animals. we don't like to do anything to stand out from the group, including assisting someone. we usually assume, 'someone else will do something' because we're afraid to go against the pack. stupid, but true.

theecarey - 03/24/07 00:46
right on, lilho, right on. You can have it all-- love, friendship, compassion and super shiny lip gloss. Sometimes its not that people dont want to help, but that they dont know how. Takes some creeping out of the comfort zone to lend a hand. But with people such as yourself giving it a go- perhaps someone watching or reading this, will have it on their mind to practice kindness too. thumbs up on the post, chica.

museumchick - 03/23/07 22:33
I know having you reach out made a difference for him:).

chico - 03/23/07 21:58
not that you should necessarily be congratulated for doing the right thing, but good job (e:lilho). it's reassuring to know someone out there is willing to take the time to help a person in need.

things are what you make of them
Category: post-party

thats a really great song by "bishop allen". check em out ya'll thats some good shit for the ipod.

if you missed out, on the parade with me. well, you missed out. i hugged every old man, and even rode in a van with the parade for a bit. (e:brit) , i think you must owe me about $200 bucks for all of the bets you gave me. its the one day of the year i feel completely free. out in the street, drinking the crunk juice. oh yes.

now, im back in work/school mode and thinking i am totally ready for spring break. apparently the assholes at ecc, do not consider midterm a good time for spring break.

I've been celibate for way too long. perhaps i will become crazy born-again, again, and revirginize myself...

ps. i shall post some st patty's day pics soon...

brit - 03/22/07 14:42
I had my fingers crossed and when I said I dare you rub yourself up against an octegenarian I didn't think you would actually do it...should have known better I guess!
