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: I Want To Dance Like Bobby Birdman (When I Should Be Doing My Homework)

Hey guys.
It's me.
-
So, today I tried to work on a school project.
But, of course, with the internet being the giant web of information it is I got distracted.
Really distracted.
-
So yeah, soon I was watching videos of YACHT concerts and DPC tours.
I have no idea why my distraction took such a musical turn.
Have you guys ever seen Bobby Birdman dance?
It's kind of fantastic...
I just spent way too much of my day watching that.
DON'T JUDGE ME, HIS HIPS ARE MESMERIZING!
(Actually, not really. It's really more his knees.... And the hair flipping...
Okay, let's move on)
-
So!
New art video soon!
(By soon I mean as soon as I have it done.)
And maybe a new sound conglomeration.
Who knows how much I can get done.
-
In other news, I'll be going up to New Hampshire this Wednesday.
Yay, eight hour (or longer) drives!
Seriously, though, guys, I'm wicked excited.
If any of my New England familia is reading this, I'll be seein' ya'll there!
-
You know, I don't take enough time to acknowledge how much I love doing this.
If anyone at all is reading this, thank you so much.
It thrills me that I'm able to write multiple groups of short sentences about something no one really cares about.
Honestly, this is my light.
So, thanks, for that.
-
IN OTHER NEWS.
I have to run tomorrow.
Yayy, running.
I hate running around outside.
Last time I was practically dying after, like, a few feet.
I feel like I really want to exercise, but running is so intimidating.
Can't I, like, jog.
Slowly.
On a treadmill?
(Or one of those bike thingies, then you get to SIT!)
I'd totally start paying attention in gym class!
-
Well, in case you can't tell, I'm in a pretty good mood right now.
I don't know what it is, but I just feel good.
Not super great, just.
Good.
-
Hey, I took a picture of a light!
(That thing up there's a link)
Yeah, I quite like it.
So, you know.
You can see that.
If you'd like.
-
I suppose that's all I have for you know.
See you all on Tuesday. (Videoing early because I won't be here wednesday)
Probably no Uneducated Thoughts on Sunday, since I'll be in NH.
Sorry!



Bye.

Uneducated Thoughts: Bone Broke

Hey.
It's me.
And I have no money.
-
I mean, I've got a bit,
but what does that count for when a good camera costs more than a couch at IKEA?
I've been scheming,
but I'm not sure if any of the ideas are all that realistic.
-
One idea, for instance, is to start a small-cale design business.
And, yes, I know I'm extremely young to start a business,
and that I'm not all that great at art, but....
I like it.
And, I mean, maybe someone could let me design a poster for them or something.
Or birthday invitations.
ANYTHING
-
Speaking of design,
I made a new image for my inspiration wall,
this one I'm quite happy about.
You can see it here.
-
Another scheme is, of course, selling things.
I just have to figure out how that would work out.
-
I've been listening to some Audio Bullys lately.
Not bad.
Who knew brits were so great at rapping?
-
Also, I've been wondering a bit,
Is anyone even reading this?
If you are, whoever you are,
type "here" in the comments.
Or put your favorite color.
Or just type a comment.
Something, I don't care what.
I just want to know how many people are actually seeing these.
-
So, today I went to IKEA.
The phrase "Enough of this OCD stuff." was spoken to me by my father, after I fixed a pole that was popping out of its wrapping.
Then my mom joined in with, "Yeah, you don't really have OCD."
Who said I did?
Because I put things in their wrapping when they're poking out?
Why were these words spoken?
They probably meant nothing by it, but...
It just makes me feel kinda weird.
I don't know how to explain it.
-
Well, I gues that's all.
Hopefully I'll upload on wednesday.
Sorry it was so short.



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.)

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.

Hey Look, I Took Some Photographs.

Hey, why not start with a semi-disturbing one? I actually got hold of a red pen during science class. And I was really bored.
Are the spirits trying to contact me, or do I just need to clean off my computer screen? Maybe both....

Ouchies.
What do you think this is? It's actually not a super zoomed-in image of the above picture or  any other wound. I actually ate that for dinner a little while ago. It's lasagna. 
I is watching you....
Look, it's my cat again. Isn't he just a little angel?
That's our other cat, Isis. My family thinks she's so much nicer than Captain, but I'm not convinced. I'm pretty much positive she's planning to take over the known universe, and that's her plotting face.
Plotting face.
