Had kind of a shitty day so it's nice to make something and distract myself. Saw this JFK picture saved to my items and figured I could use it.

Hey! It's been a while. I can't sleep so I'm making a set and my kitten is driving me absolutely crazy. She has an unlimited amount of energy and she's jumping all over my room. Sometimes I just get so stressed and I find it hard to relax and hard to sleep.

I've been reading the book Catch-22 and it's very funny! I love how humor can transcend time in some ways. Things from hundreds of years ago that people thought were funny can still be funny today. Even though Catch-22 was published in 1961, the humor is relatable. It's like when I was looking at this big book of cartoons from the New Yorker, the ones that were published in the 20s and 30s and I was laughing so hard at some of them.

I always put the tag "fuzzy kittens" in all of my sets on Polyvore and I'm pretty sure this is the first time that tag has ever actually pertained to the set.
Long time no see! Finally finished my AP US History homework after getting tendinitis in my arm from writing so much. I swear, that teacher is out to get me. 80 full handwritten pages.

Using items from my first set. Damn I wish I picked better items when I first started on polyvore.

I try not to be so hard on myself, but it's difficult. I know that those thoughts just make me more depressed, but they seem so real I can't just ignore them. Where does the line between positivity and being out of touch from reality exist? I can't on good conscience lie to myself to make me feel better. It's not genuine. I'm just so tired of this and I want it to be over.
“Death must be so beautiful. To lie in the soft brown earth, with the grasses waving above one's head, and listen to silence. To have no yesterday, and no to-morrow. To forget time, to forgive life, to be at peace.”

Honestly, my driving force is this feeling of incompletion. I want to do something with my life, but I don't know what. I know of possibilities, fantastical and faraway fantasies, but the future is ambiguous and unknown just as death is ambiguous and unknown. I'm trying to remain positive, looking to the future. But are these ideas practical? Will they make me happy? Am I just chasing the green light? What's the point? Maybe it doesn't matter. I will keep going because I hope to do something valuable with what I have.

Once there was a shock
that left behind a long, shimmering comet tail.
It keeps us inside. It makes the TV pictures snowy.
It settles in cold drops on the telephone wires.
One can still go slowly on skis in the winter sun
through brush where a few leaves hang on.
They resemble pages torn from old telephone directories.
Names swallowed by the cold.
It is still beautiful to hear the heart beat
but often the shadow seems more real than the body.
The samurai looks insignificant
beside his armor of black dragon scales.

things I find interesting:
condensation, murder mysteries, the dissection of the human brain through literature and psychology, socialism, anatomy and the skeletal structure, intricate blue prints of machinery, dodecahedrons, clocks, the swedish language, the 1940s fashion and cars, WWII, imagining nothingness, dystopian novels, and hats.
