Society

it's a mystery to me
we have a greed
with which we have agreed

you think you have to want
more than you need
until you have it all you won't be free

society, your a crazy breed
I hope you're not lonely without me

when you want more than you have
you think you need
and when you think more than you want
your thoughts begin to bleed

I think I need to find a bigger place
cos when you have more than you think
you need more space

society, your a crazy breed
I hope you're not lonely without me
society, crazy and deep
I hope you're not lonely without me

there's those thinking more or less less is more
but if less is more how you keeping score?
means every point you make
your level drops
kinda like its starting from the top
you can't do that

society, your a crazy breed
I hope you're not lonely without me
society, crazy and deep
I hope you're not lonely without me

society, have mercy on me
I hope you're not angry if I disagree
society, crazy and deep
I hope you're not lonely without me




I wish I wrote that. Really I do. It's so beautiful! We watched a video about modern day sweatshops in America, yeah run by Forever 21. I hate that. people have worked SO hard in the past to make developments on labor laws and we still can't follow them! What the hell, why is this world full of idiots! More importantly who let the idiots run the country!? grrr. I really wish we could have a do-over. you know have something cataclismic happen forcing people to start over, with fresh eyes. I would like that. I wouldn't mind living in small community, like the Shire ahaha! Everyone works and everythings made right there! and plenty of green hills to run over! ohhh, if only. Anyways just wanted to share that

oh and if you haven't figured it out yet those are Eddie Vedders lyrics to Society from Into the Wild soundtrack, great song, it really is.

Second Day of Pattern

I keep talking about Pattern Development, here's why: it's awesome and a huge part of my future (and probably the hardest class I have). Anyways today we made bodice front and back pieces measured to the mannequin (my mannequin has the name of Gabrielle but I call her Garet) It wasn't to bad having step by step directions. Eventually I'll need to remember the whole process but I'm glad I can even understand it at this point. There was a one girl I was talking to before class and all she did was complain about construction and patternmaking. It's weird because even though she told me she likes the design and buying more than the construction she seems to fail to understand that in order to design you have to know and master construction (well at least that's what I think, others will probably tell you differently) I just love all of it! It's fun too because sometimes the people I meet who are most into what they do AREN'T the brand wearing, richy, gotta have the best girls. I don't understand why people think only the ones wearing the highest fashions are the only people who understand it. It is true though that my fashion isn't maybe what some would call high fashion. haha! It makes me chuckle at least. :) Now I just have to worry about getting all the supplies for apparel, I know I'll need a serger, cutting table, mannequin, and other various tools whew! I wonder where's the money going to come from? haha

Second First Day

Well I had my second first day today! It was pretty short actually, I only have pattern from 10:10-12:10 and Speech 12:20-1:15 so not bad. I really like my speech teacher because she reminds me kinda of myself in the way that she's really into what she does, she's outgoing, and fun and while I'm not always like that I can be, ahhhh I just don't want to sound like I'm praising myself or anything but I would like to think I have SOME good qualities (but no one can be sure) I like pattern too, but it makes me a little scared to be honest. There's an imense amount of work, I have at least 3 big projects with sub projects, book work, exams, and assignments to do. ahh, it's a little scary I just don't want to fail, I want to be able to do well to understand. I have to do good construction and I'm afraid I'm just not at that level yet. I really want to be good at this...I'm sick of failing, I'm sick of having to change, sick of starting over again and again...I just want to succeed, so I'm just so afraid I won't.

on an entirely different note
I wrote this yesterday
I think it's kind of cool

25.1.09

So I shall take my place again
With hidden crown
And invisible throne
To guide those who seek me
Seek treasure
Seek uniqueness
And quiet glory
Will spread underneath
Those who keep thier heads so high
A victor's cry
Shall a whisper be
And music shall ring out
For few ears to hear
And peace in a secret land
Shall be redeemed

First Day of Class

so I had my first first day of class (I say this because Monday I have different classs so it will be another first) So far I can tell it's going to be tough but my professors seem really cool. My Lit professor is old and has a huge white beard but he's really into reading and learning, he's so into it it makes me smile and really enjoy being in class. His thrive for learning makes me want to learn so that's really cool. Anthropolgy seems like its going to be fun too, one of my friends in the dorm is in the class so I have someone to talk to and Packaging seems cool as well. Alot of my classes it seems is really social and disscussion oriented I really feel like I'm going to learn and have fun doing it because it won't be just facts it's opinions, thoughts, beliefs, and learning about the world, peoples places in it and my place in it


cool huh?

In global news, just watched a show about sea levels rising. Truth is, the sea IS warmer and still getting warmer which is melting Greenland and Antartica in different but very dangerous ways that makes th sea levels rise at an increasing pace that could be catastrophic in the next couple of decades or so. No one's sure if we are past the tipping point and if there's anything we can do to stop or reverse what's happing. Just getting a warning out, keep a swimsuit handy haha.

Back at school

Well I got back to school yesterday and rearranged my room! I put both dressers and fridge under on bed to create more space, and because I was having difficulty changes bed heights (my roomates was lower and I wanted mine lower) I switched the entire bed frames!(because I like my side of the room) of course now I am taking over both sides becasue it's the only comfortable way to live alone. so that took up most of yesterday, today I've been slightly productive but not really....mmmm I'll get to it. I'll become productive soon haha.

On a much sadder note one of my favorite shows (and one of the few left worth watching) is getting cancelled because the numbers aren't there. Personally I think it's stupid. The show recieved 12 nominations which proves it a talented show and really if you watch it you will understand just how wonderful it is. I beg you out there to watch it (online or tv I don't care) and if you don't want to help those who do by going on http://www.petitiononline.com/daisies and signing the petition to keep Pushing Daisies alive for those that do love it. They have only given the show 2.5 seasons before looking to cancel and have dropped the show pretty much on a cliffhanger. This is a beautiful show (and Ned's sooooo cute!)If you have any taste for good tv or film you will like Pushing Daisies or at least understand that it's a good show, it's clever, funny, romantic, fantasy, mystery and has an amazing cast of characters (Wicked's first Glenda Kristen Chenoweth plays Olive Snook)HELP SAVE THE DAISIES PLEASE!
