Uneducated Thoughts: The Female Gives Up Politics For Lent

Hey guys.
I'm just going to start this one out by saying
I don't care.
Now, don't immediately think I have become apathetic about my life.
Or have been totally reborn as a nihilist.
No.
I'm just giving up on trying to care about politics.
Now, I know, I know.
It's my country.
It's other peoples countries.
Its the way the world goes and I should participate in making it an ultimately better place.
But
let's face it.
I'm no feminist.
I wish I were a guys sometimes, not because I'm attracted to girls or anything,
but because I just respect guys more.
And I know, that's such an awful, heteronormative, gender-normy thing.
But I just don't care anymore.
Almost all of the people I look up to are guys.
(I'll admit, they aren't the manliest men in the world, but they're people that I honestly respect)
-
I read an article in the paper a little while ago
about how it's weirder to see a young boy wearing dresses than a young girl wearing guys clothing
because we still see girls as the lesser gender.
So why would a boy want to become weaker?
I just thought I should share that.
-
Speaking of the paper!
I can't even read it anymore.
I used to really enjoy it,
but now all I read is the film reviews, because that's the only escape from.
"Blahblahblah Barack Obama blahblahblah guns blahblahblah massacre"
It's all so depressing.
-
Additionally,
(because I'm just gonna spill my guts out all over this post)
I've become so sick of listening.
I mean, sure, I'm still open to listen and help when it's needed.
But I have been feeling so ready to just give that up,,
so willing to force my opinions onto others.
It's kind of a shame.
I feel so selfish.
-
I've been wanting an old instant film camera aLOT lately.
(Maybe inspired by this old video I found hanging around on the internet)
But I'm not willing to pay hundreds of dollars for it.
I've been looking in antique stores for one, but I haven't found one yet.
-
I've been doing a lot of art as well.
It's a really good way to get your mind off of things.

It's a quote from a
Driftless Pony Club song.

I made this one an hour ago.
And I drew this last night when I couldn't sleep.

(It says 'calm.')

It's really an enjoyable pastime, and it's something I'd love to incorporate into my future.
-
Um. Well.
That's all I have for you this week.
Check out my youtube for more videos.
See ya.

Bye.

Uneducated Thoughts : Short & Sweet

Hey, guys.
I made a collage-type art thing today.
You can see it here.
If you want.
-
As I write this, I am currently listening to "Clique" by Kanye West.
Some people might say my music taste has gone down the drain.
I like to think of it as broadening horizons.
-
So, yeah.
Today I edited this week's wednesday upload.
It's great having this long weekend.
I don't have to worry about not having time to edit/record things.
Which means more frequent videos!
The only problem is going back to school on wednesday,
but I guess nothing lasts forever.
-
Election day is coming.
I'm just excited for it to be over.
I don't mind a healthy bit of politics,
but it's just getting tiring.
Maybe I'm a bad citizen.
-
I've been in a very artsy mood lately,
producing a lot of photoshoppy things and videos.
That's good, though.
-
I did neat things to a picture of space.
Maybe I'll do something with it.
-
Space is interesting.
It's so...
Big.
-
Today, I finished editing a video.
Definitely a new video this wednesday.
Absolutely no doubt.
-
I guess that's all.
See you on wednesday.

Bye.

Ooh, Look At Me, Bein' All Artsy-Fartsy (Mature, I Know)

Hey, guys.
So.
My room is pretty cool (in my opinion), but the walls have been blank for too long, so,
I have made things.

"I want to be someones Mitchell Davis. I just want to change someone's life
the way my life has been changed. I want to be the Mitchell Davis of one other
confused little teenager, some day. I want to give them that same inspiration, that
same spark to keep going. I just hope I can do that."

"Art is Perception"

"Now."

These pictures will soon be put up on my "Motivation Wall," and entire wall of my room soon to be devoted to pictures and/or phrases that I find motivational or inspiring.
I shall post more soon.
Love ya, cuties.

Bye.



(Just by the way, you can see the thing I recently made, called a sound conglomeration right here.)

Just A Quick Update

Hi guys.
It's me.
I just wanted to do a little blogging so that I don't forget.
I know that you guys want me to post something of substance, and I'm really sorry i haven't been doing that.
I just really want to get my camera charger.

So. The female's taking a fencing class at a college this week.
Did I mention this particular college gym happens to have no air-conditioning?
And, GOSHDARNIT is it hot!
I mean, you don't know hot until you've done strenuous physical activity in a large room without air conditioning, among 10 other people, all wearing the athletic equivalent of a winter jacket.

In other news....
I've recently made a significant change to my appearance (aka, dyed my hair) and become much more confident. I can now stare at myself in the mirror and not be disgusted.
Good job, female! You keep that positive attitude!

Hm.
Well.
I guess I'l leave you with this:

Gosh freaking darnit'

Bye! 

The Female Ventures Into Uncharted Territory

So. Yesterday I explored the Garage. And, y'know, as I sorted through piles of old notebooks and tools, I realized something.
It's really cool in there.
 I mean, first of all, we don't keep our cars in there, since the garage is old and has impossibly heavy metal doors. I got in through the cut little side door. Once you get past the dust and strangely large amount of scissors hanging from rusty nails, it's pretty sweet. It's warm (in the summer, I'm not sure what it'll be like once it gets colder) and the smell of cut grass and lawn mower fuel is strangely pleasant. You can hear birds chirping through the edges of the metal door and the un-openable window (which has really neat looking warped glass), but you're still protected from the elements. And, I probably haven't said anything about this before, but I'm not as comfortable around my sister as I should be.
Whenever she likes something I like, I feel like she's more qualified as a fan., as if it's a competition. Which sucks, because she's really great, she just...dominates everything, and makes me feel super inadequate.
But that's beside the point! I can post about that later!
 Yeah, though, the garage gives me this nice sense of separation that I hope, one day, I can achieve just sitting in my room. But, for know, I'll enjoy my safe place in the backyard.
 I was in the garage in the first place because of a dream. You see, I sometimes look to my subconscious for advice. Maybe I think the inner me speaks more truthfully, I don't know, but I really pay attention to what goes on inside while I'm asleep. This time, my dream was about getting my camera, and going into the garage to find the charger (which I lost in the move). Once I had found it, I took a video, in the garage of me talking to the camera and making a video that coincides with this blog. So, this is where my (two) loyal followers come in:
Should I do it?
Should I try vlogging?
 I don't know how good I would be at it, but, y'know, maybe I'll enjoy myself. It's all just part of my quest to find what I enjoy doing.
I think this idea might have been sparked by the large amount of joy and purpose i got out of making a video project for my friend Laura (which I will link to right here). I really had fun editing those clips together. And I think, in the garage, I might have a greater sense of safety. But I dunno. Maybe I'll hate it.
I really just want to find something fun to do with my time and, so far, I'm not sure whatI really enjoy.
Tell me what you think.

What I've Been Up To

(I'm back, blogging on the blogisphere)

So, I'd just like to start this post off with a complaint:

What the hellck, Blogger? I trusted you!

There are numbers now!? Also, this was the easiest one I could find, the other ones were completely illegible.

How could you do this to me?

Okay, enough whining...

I've moved to another state! Yeah...I should have posted about that earlier.

But I didn't! :D

So... The other night my family and I were sitting around outside, talking while a candle burned in the middle of the table. I was playing with the wax when I decided to take some pictures with my mom's iPhone. I put them together in a little slideshow thingy, and put some music in the background (because, hey, music makes everything more epic, right?)

I'm sorry if it doesn't play correctly, the 'upload a video' feature is really confusing".


The song in the background is Very Scared by Those Guys. It's the most ominous rap song I listen to. 
If you're in my immediate family, you know of the crazy theory my sister has dreamt up that I only listen to YACHT. I'm hoping that this will help erase any concerns you have about that.


Also, what do you think of the new look? It might change a bit, but I think it's pretty cool.


Hm...Well.
I don't think there's much else to talk about. 
More posts soon. (hopefully)
Uh.....
Bye.
