Love that doesn't suck

violetboregaurd by violetboregaurd · Jan 10, 2004 · 241 views · Journal

Here is my journal entry = January 11, 2004.
I looked back on a year ago at this time and realize how different my life was. I worked four days a week at a job owned by "circus midgets" who decided I was to be there muse of artwork. I ran like a top to take care of everything and in the end ended up with nothing. My field service time was not going to well and on top of that, my brother - who is one of my best friends... was getting married and for the first time ever we were not going to be with in a five foot living vacinity.
On top of a few other interesting turns of life I found myself wondering if I had reached my peak and had nowhere to go but complacent.
THEN I moved in June - and everything changed. I remembered a lot of cool things I had forgotten. I remembered to smile and how to be myself again - and that life is what you make of it and in Jehovah's organization you can do anything. How much fun it is to design tee shirts and work on artwork.
Its so strange because Pennsylvania, I don't think will be a permanent place for me, but I owe SO much to this state. I owe regaining my sanity and self to a place that I never in my wildest dreams thought I would like, let alone live.
SO this journal entry is dedicated to the surprises of life that make it all more sweeter. I love how the planitarium like sky looks as it highlights the amazing mountains out here; I love driving home early in the morning and seeing the landscape - even though its early. I love how I finally realize that the music of my mixed cd's isn't weird at all, its all me. I love teeny and Mr. Pepitone, two of my closest friends who make me laugh more than anything. I love just being able to sit with a cup of coffee in my room and write... yeah I love all this. So thank you to Ezabel, cause its awesome to be here.

Wow, that's so great. I guess it really takes a big change sometimes to make you stand back and look at everything.

punkprincess punkprincessOG 2001

that the words "thank you" dont mean "a lot"

thefunkyfresh thefunkyfreshFounder

exactly, like if somebody asked you "How much ice cream did you eat?" the proper response would not be "thank you!" it would be "shut up you stupid pygmie, you're a fox i tell ya! a FOX!!!" because that is the meaning of "a lot"

I loved screenprinting in school..so much fun. Unfortunately, my super-cool screen got messed up because we had to evacute the room and the ink dried in it. Not cool.
