Interests: I like clouds, and storms, and the empowering red of the trees next to a navy sky when the street lamps shine just so. The contrast is everything, pure emotion. Dark, rich, and deeply unnervingly royal. Like a cello on morphine. My world is color.

Why I never want to leave Chicago...

Lakefront bike ride at twilight = one of my more amazing life experiences. The sail-dotted horizon against a water color rose-violet sky was just picture-postcard-perfect (for a coastal city, even). And then there were the sleek skyscrapers reflecting the waves... just wow.

24 miles round trip to register for a 25 mile ride. Old clanky did pretty well, for a squeaky vintage schwinn. I think I'll take up tourist biking. Possibly overseas?

In any case, it was breathtaking.

Update:

everyone is in college and i'm bored. so back to xanga for a moment.
as for summer goals...

old crew: blues fest, bbq(s), july 3rd, and movies. among other things.
concerts: blues fest. street music. summerdance. israeli gypsy punk and electronica. learned to salsa. (one lifelong goal completed.)
sox fandom: a few trivia tutorials, and one awesome game.
car education: aside from movies, none to date.
red&khaki: quit in favor of a two-week latvianfest. i still hate red & khaki.
cleaning/decorating: room is painted, now practicing my carpentry skills on IKEA dressers. we'd better have some awesome houseguests next year to appreciate my work.
endorphins: yes. among other things.
reading: not much.
movies: fast&furious tokyo drift, miami vice, pirates 2, snakes on a plane (yes, we have very sophisticated tastes)
adventure: one week in MI + one week in rural NY = two weeks of latvians. it was 'still-laughing-in-disbelief' wild.

but i still have three weeks until move-in. trip down to U of I for labor day, perhaps?


i am experienced a mild form of cerebral atrophy, but it's ok.

Summer plans:

chill w/ the old crew (started)
go to lots of free concerts (started)
become a diehard white sox fan (started)
learn something about cars
learn to love red & khaki
clean/decorate my living space
get high on endorphins (started)
read something
see some movies (started)
have an adventure

It's all doable, I think. And maybe towards the end of the summer, make the mac transition? We'll see.

facebook > xanga.
find me there.

UChicago. It's decided.

I'm all for academic suicide these days.

Haha APs.... and here's to working retail this summer and spending every free moment in the SUN and running/biking/chilling on the BEACH. Because that's what summer's all about.


Sleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep. (maybe for the next few weeks?)

I am directing the best one-act with the BEST CAST EVER. April 27, 28, and 29 at 7pm.
Be there.

err... college?

My indecisive mind is really taking a beating here.
