Silence to Shout!


You know, I really have been talking to different people so far, but I'm still really one of the quietest in the class. But I think that silence can also be a good thing. Silence allows one to have an extremely creative and abstract way of looking at the world, and the people in it. Instead of talking to an individual to find out more about them, you think about it. You pay attention to their facial features, whether out not they have quick or slow motions, how they react to a teacher's boring lecture of God only knows what. It gives me something to do when I'm bored. But when you do that, you need to be careful not to judge people on what you assume. I believe that you can not truly hate someone unless you know them personally. Hey, you know what I just realized, when I type at night, I write about really weird pointless stuff from the very back corners of my mind, and let me tell you, it's not a pretty place. I guess I'll call it my version of mind trippin' without the weed. You know what song I'm listening to right now, go ahead, guess.....................Nope that's not it. I was listening to "Torture Me" by the Red Hot Chili Peppers (bet you couldn't see that coming). I love that song soooo much, it's one of those songs that get permanently stuck in your head. The Bravery is another good band, they sound like they have some kind of British accent but I think that it's so cool. I wish I had an accent. Maybe I do, I guess I wouldn't really know unless I was looking at myself from someone else's perspective. I can't wait for the bitter cold mornings at the bus stop, it's much better than being baked by the sun in my opinion. My favorite seasons are the spring and fall cause it's not too hot, not too cold. It's just chilly enough to wear a light jacket, but not hot enough to fry. But I have to admit, enough though it may be very hot at times, the summer has proven itself to be a season of freedom from school, that's very cool. I wish my hair would grow just a few inches longer, then I could finally donate it. Starting last summer, I've been donating my hair to "Locks of Love" which is donating long hair to be made into wigs for cancer patients. It's a freakin' sweet organization. But I want to grow out my hair log enough to donate, and to still have long hair once I cut some off. Cause the cold weather is right around the corner and I don't want my hair too short. Wow, my mind has really skipped around a lot since the beginning of this post. I went from reading people's minds, to donating hair.....go figure. I got to go now, talk to everyone later.

ampie said to ask you about videos, but i figured it out, finally, how to blog them-- just takes a while to download a short video doesn't it? you should put some more up, make some little movies, i think you'd be good at that from what i see of your photos, and you're creative, allie; do you have any art or paintings , or do you mostly do photography?
