freewrite

i don't know if i lost the energy, or if i'm overtaxing myself, but i just don't find the need to blog anymore. perhaps it's the invention of sites like myspace an d facebook that give fgriends an option to update at a moment's notice. want to do soo much, but nothing today. have to clean the house, eat, visit the mta transict museum, eat, crochet, eat, do laundry... auh... laundyry >_ this week i completely overtaxed myself to reach a cgoal that wea s was too last minute and probably something that will raise th e bar for my expectations. great. ah wel. think it's time to go back to sleep anad enjoyo my bed ^_____^

History Made Tonight.

Tonight, America voted to bring a country back together. I have never felt so proud of my country as i do tonight. ^_^

News Flash.....

It finally sunk in..... I'm a college graduate!!!!!!! ^____________^

Well i tried!

Perhaps it was the chill in the air, or the fact i didn't plant it in the spring, or that it was a garlic clove... Maybe it's because it's manhattan... But my plant didn't make it. Poor thing. Maybe i should read more about planting :/ lot's happening, but i haven't been in the mood to blog about it. On my way to CT now for some tacos at our fav sports bar. Halloween is coming up and i'm excited. Just wait for the pics ^_^ was going to blog about something, but my train of thought wandered...... Ah well. I'm disappointed with this post. Another free write that didn't even take up my train time ;_; wah.....

"Plants need water, man!"

Yay!! More growth with my little garlic plant! How i love to watch it grow ^_____^ Here is day 5: and day 7: i'm so excited to see how it grows - i still find it amazing, even though i know how it works. guess it helps my mind think of other things than the stress of work or bills, etc. went to an event tonight called a business card exchange. several companies get together and mingle/network with each other at a really awesome venue. so tonight, we all met at Mars 2112 . i met an awesome doll designer and her art director and a lovely woman that puts together a nyc up & out newsletter for nyc's lgbt community. we got to talking and struck a common bond. we both worked our asses off to go to school and didn't feel we should suffer after we already worked so hard. with that said, i'm going to try to do everything i can to try to keep my apartment (it was an issue i've been fighting myself over) while still keeping money aside to live life. in the past...

My Garlic Plant!

I have a need for green things in my apartment. So, i find seeds around the kitchen and put them in dirt! Here are two pics of days 2 and 4 of my garlic plant experiment. i took a little clove of garlic and well.. look! 2 Days: 4 Days: that's made me a little happier about my apartment. on other news... i may have to move. student loans started a few months ago and it's killing my budget. I've gotten rid of just about everything else, but it's not enough. so i may end up moving to queens because i value my privacy - aka living in my own apartment. sharing is a good way to keep the costs down, but there are certain things i like to do on my own and a way i like to feel comfortable. i still don't like sharing bathrooms... maybe it's a complex :P plus if i want to bake at 2:30am i'd like the choice. perhaps i'll go to queens. the hardest part is trying to figure out what to do in the meantime. to get back my security, i'll have to stay until m...

New York is changing

And i guess it's been ever changing. I'm walking down 3rd avenue and i see several places out of business. There's where brella bar used to be (where i spent an insane amount of money on 3, no 4 umbrellas). Next, a Gymboree, a pretty big kiddy clothing store. Then i come across a beautifully decorated wall. Nothing on the floor, no furniture, no light fixtures, just carpet and pretty wall paper. As i round the corner, i see the store sign "Ethan Allen". Even they closed shop here. More to come i'm sure. Made me sad, though. I felt like i wanted to hug the next person i saw to console them. Strange, huh? Time to start walking again. My break to blog is done ^_^ Off to read more count of monte christo! ~marj :)
