Dear LJ,
I am sorry I have neglected you for 3 whole weeks. Although, I have been lurking, as usual. School is out for the summer, so that's really cool. I'm going to Mexico on Sunday, be back in three weeks. I'm hoping it'll be fun and I really want to come back speaking Spanish really well. :) I'm amidst packing.

Take care,
C88

NEWS NEWS NEWS NEWS!

My new book is finally done! It's called Rise & Fall and it's costing me $5.50 a book. Which means, if you want one, you have to cover shipping and whatnot. So it'll probs be like $7 a book for the rest of you.

I'm really excited for this one. Seriously. And Chris wrote the intro.

check: C88 IND for more info.

it'd be helpful to know who's interested before ordering them, so let me know.

hopeful.

Last night I saw Craig Owens play an acoustic show. The whole thing made me really happy. I was surprised because the group of kids that showed up wasn't really the Chiodos crowd, it was a little weird. But then again, I never really fit into any scene, so whatever it was all good. He was really giggly and funny on stage. He performed really well and I'm so glad I decided to go. :)

it's funny.

it's funny how sometimes everything turns out just the way you least expect in the most pleasant of ways.

this vacation has been good, and it's not over yet. and for that, i'm happy.
i have seen a good band live. which i heard on the news, experiences are always more valuable than material items. i took pictures that looked like shit to start, and using iPhoto and Photoshop, i made them look legit and i'm proud.
thanks to Julia Nunes i decided to read John Green's Paper Towns. It was intriguing and captivating and interesting. Even though all I've read are "little kid" books lately, this one was particularly well written and I enjoyed the disney-esqe ending to it all.
my wrist hurts from typing.

to anyone i haven't talked to in a while, i apologize.

two weeks and counting.

have you ever known the feeling that the USPS might be dealing with a letter that could alter the course of the rest of your life?
there are maybe two weeks until USPS deals with that letter for me.
freaking out.

"because you deserve to feel loved in return.
because you deserve it."

favorite thing.
i wish my book was done.

CORN!
Awkward and misplaced.
out of line and out of order.
broken, distorted, immaculate reality.

Desire, intent, necessity for change.
change of scene, change of basics, hange of perspective.
Hope and destination, persistence.

Busy mind, busy soul, busy body.
Distraction.
Reaction.
Refresh.
Relax.
Boredom.
Lazy.
Too easy.
Repace.
Restep.
Restart.

so sick.

i am ridiculously ill. not even cool.
runny nose, stuffed head, gross cough, the works.
it's been one of those weeks where it's 7:30 and I want to go to bed.
i caught up on my scrubs and some kyle xy, and it's just time to sleep.

in other news, my friend sent me the "obama song" by michael franti and spearhead. i love it. i wish i'd found this during the campaign.
i saw an interesting magazine cover with barack on it. it was him in a shirt that said "this is what a feminist looks like" i thought it was interesting but i didn't read it.

i really have no news. pretty lame around here.

in other news:
i'm working on this project in school. it's by far the most complex i've done. ever.

that's a combination of ikat (african method) and pattern weave. and yes, my treadles are labeled because i'm an idiot. sorry.

and i have this weird obsession with french painter Piet Mondrian.

last year i did an ode to him (the smaller painting-thing) and i just decided i wanted a piet blanket, so i've been working my ass off on that. which is obviously the fabric.

i'm sick and coughing. peace :)

exciting.

i haven't updated in over two weeks. i have good reason, i swear.
finally, the week of hell is over. that is, semester finals.
i know, my school is SO late on them. yeah yeah yeah. but i'm just hoping i didn't bomb anything too badly. someone's at the bottom. :\
so my brain was all fuzzy and mushy for a while and that was annoying. and it was just stressful as is imaginable and exhausting.

highlights aside from... the test taking:
made a hat for my friend while procrastinating. it was hella cute. (image heavy post to come)
forever 21 didn't have the dress I PUT ON HOLD [hates] so instead i walked around the mall and got myself a pair of earrings. yaaay
i went to salvation army with one of my best friends. picked up a pair of oxford type heels (totally for the LOLz and to get me.. 2" taller. haha) and i got a bunch of records for like $1. so exciting.
good chills with some friends and watching zoolander. happy heart.

today:
i melted one vinyl into a bowl.
i went to the craft store and got myself fabric and sticky tac.
my room now has records hanging on the wall and i'm working on making a piet mondrian

i'm totally wiped out.

not gonna lie... raphael saadiq reminds of finding my rock roots. i love good soul.

p.s. http://crushed88industries.info is modified!

so i'm officially scared shitless.
there's a reason i've never been able to see my future.
it's because i have none. on 12/21/12 the world will end.

sarah texted me about yoga parties and nicole let me know about bubble baths.

i had to make him like 6 word documents because apparently one document can only have so many characters, and his entries exceeded it.
oh, the intern work i pretend to do! ahha...yeah.


vacation was solid. being four hours north of my usual location in michigan.
i was uber stoked to snowboard, but SHOCKINGLY michigan wasn't cold enough.

yo, let me just say this book was addictive. i am pretty much the world's slowest reader, and i finished this in two days. i spent so much time with my face shoved in it.

you're really cool.
