Creative dust

I feel the inklings of creativity stirring softly in my vein sometimes, like dust shuffled against a gray corner of a room by a small warm breeze. I don’t know if I will ever bloom permanently into a creative lifestyle, like I always imagined I would. I hope this summer frees the stress… and something lets it flow. Whatever it may be.

It maybe…

vocals, tinkling music, odd dishes, jellies mom will be made at me for making in the kitchen, patches sewn on old bagged stale clothing, pictures drawn in pen on crinkled used paper, idea bouncing with friends, clothing I wear with purpose in the morning, scenes I steal the light from an upload to my computer, words that gather like cellular structures are formed by dna to create….

something?

Junkie

I can’t believe how much junk there is in the world. Physical junk, clogging up the garbage cans and the corners of my own fucking room; Emotional junk, blocking up my real feelings from manifesting in words.

I’m incredibly disconnected right now. I want to purge… my stomach especially, since I’ve been eating rice cakes and pita w/ hummus like a third world child. When I’m so disconnected, I just get the urge to fill myself with more junk. Damn you perpetuating system of this damned civilization I live in!

In conclusion, I don’t really want too much for my birthday (April 12th equals 19 year old ;___;)…. let’s see…

- I want mom to take me clothes shopping, maybe in April when we’re here in Ottawa
- Maybe I want some alcohol…. because I’m a stereotypical teen like that
- I want homemade cards if at all possible.

That’s about it. Oh, and my residence mates have already been ordered to buy me a fairtrade cake from Second Avenue Sweets in the Ottawa Glebe <3 Nuff rant.

Current Occupation…

Current Occupation: Lab Rat
Salary: $10 an hour

That’s what’s filling up my upcoming week. Because I’m taking a first year Psychology class (as an elective), I get to sign up easily for all these Sociology, Technology and Psychology survey research projects. And my compensation is <3 $10 (or 1% towards my Psychology class, pfft).

Err, that is all. And I’ll throw you a song. Sorry that I am proving to you that there is no substance left in life, heh.

Very along the lines of the last mp3 I posted. It’s so cute and fluffy. Yup, there is no substance left, just cotton candy bubble gum~ (I’m not in a major serious mood at the moment, can you see?)

Sugar Content

On this snowy day of March first, I did not miss out on my chance to have spring maple syrup. Sneaking into the International Student’s* Fulton Farm Maple Syrup trip, I had a joyful sweet time and found myself amiable and friendly to people <3

I have lots of affection for maple syrup… (I detest store bought table syrup!) This love has only been so strong ever since all the sunny fun I had with Fred’s family in their sugar bush last April. Sigh, I miss those bright yellow maple trees.

Everyone, even though it is expensive, treat yourself to Canadian pure maple syrup at least once this spring! Did you know it has less calories than honey? On 33 calories per 2 tablespoons, wee! (God I became such a calorie counter this year ;>__>) And it is high in other nutrients. Maple syrup!

Here is another dose of sweetness for you. A brilliant band I now love, My Little Airport… indie asian sound that doesn’t overkill on their cuteness.
