you'll be beautiful

March 02, 2005 *~* 4:03 p.m.

Still on A Perfect Circle kick, I'm laying on a sofa in the dark, warm and almost hungry, my eyes are dry and almost hurting, and waiting for the world to come.

I don't know. I just felt like writing. I have a midterm Friday that I don't know nearly enough for- I hate Logic. I'm simply not logical, we all know that. And it means nothing to me when he says, "Derive P v ~Q" with nothing more than that. When there are premises given, I have a chance, but that's just hopeless. I don't see how I can assume some things to make a proof and not simply just assume the ending answer. Why, damnit, why?

So that's my major grief right now, added to the fact that it's kind of gloomy outside and I'm listless. I really really need to give in and buy myself a real pair of day to day shoes for Portland, which is my plan for tomorrow, but it still seems like a lot of effort given my dislike for shoes in general- why can't I just wear flip flops all the time here like I would at home?

Oh, right, because it's cold here. And it's not even actually cold, I'm just a pansy with poor circulation and body temperature regulation who is always slightly happier when I have something to complain about. That's not true either, I'm blissfully giddy-happy when things are going right, singing to myself and throwing in skips.

My new Bio prof is deadly bland and boring. It's depressing, but he has a beautiful Golden Retriever that I see tied up outside the Sports Center building when I go to Pilates, so I have to give him some credit. All the dogs here are so beautifully well-behaved. Reed has a water fountain/sculpture thing outside the library that actually has a little carved out well at the base with a faucet so you can pour your puppy a drink as well as yourself.

On the sculpture note, we have Reed Arts Week next week and seven or so artist types are invading the campus to decorate and create bizarre modern art all over and given lectures. It's really cool. I have to admit, I thought it was a stupid idea, but the random wire trees that are growing out of lunch tables now and the glass bottles lining the windows and the pictures and paintings and hidden things all about campus are pretty cool. Tomorrow afternoon, there's a massive picture been taken by a crane of all the kids standing on the front lawn, spelling out "You Are Beautiful."

I'm excited.
