Soul Meets Body by Death Cab for Cutie.
Wow. So...5 months? H'okay. Well, it's been a good 5 months, with or without blogging (answer: obviously without).
So, life is awesome. I'm not so afraid of the future as I used to be; I have no reason to. My relationship that began in May is still going strong, despite a lot of outside crap working against us. I guess I'll see how that ultimately works out; I hope for the best. I recently re-read my last ancient post (apparently I'm also Google-able?) and my description of him has held fast and my appreciation of him has, if anything, increased. He really is an incredible guy. I found, especially over the 3 months of summer I had with him (we saw each other at least a little every day we were both in town), that I had previously gotten used to something completely different and had to re-train my thoughts not to be afraid of any unpredicted and uncontrollable changes in his attitude toward me on a daily basis. I still struggle with this sometimes, irrationally. The effects of human psychology and interactions are fascinating, haha.
...Is that confusing? It might be. Conclusion: healthy relationships and amazing, caring boyfriends are win.
Inference: The Twilight series sucks. And that's not counting hideous cinematography/acting.
Change of topic.
Some things that happened over the summer and since:
-Went to the county fair and saw Switchfoot in concert. They're pretty good. While there, I also discovered the two photographs I submitted to the art contest won awards; second for the fair-themed one (WHICH WAS PLACED UPSIDE-DOWN. The shame.) and first for my panorama.
-Apparently, Michael Jackson died. So did Farrah Fawcett (too lazy to check spelling), Billy Mays, and a bunch of other people. 2009 is a big year for dying, I guess.
That's awful, I'm sorry.
-Went to Disneyland again for ze boyfriend's birthday late July. Lots of fun, even with the appalling heat. We're hoping to go again sometime this winter when he's back (he's kind of a 9 hour drive away at the moment, haha).
-Began a cliche called the "new chapter in my life." It's pretty awesome, I'm having a lot of fun. With that, I am currently a costume designer's assistant for a musical that I think is showing in March. It's exciting. I get paid in lunch and street cred.
-I hate classes that focus on research papers, that was a huge mistake on my part. Research papers suck more than having to watch Kristen Stewart act for 2 1/2 hours. At least it's almost over.
-I got a job at Subway. What I quickly discovered was that minimum wage jobs like that involve employees like me, with his or her whole life ahead of them; and then there are the employees whose only future involves the cash drop at 3.
-As a result of the last event, I got enough money to finally afford Photoshop CS4 and a Canon Rebel EOS!! Truly legit.
-Halloween. Halloween was awesome. I was, for lack of a better description, Pride and Prejudice and Zombies. The cumulation of a period dress I made (yay period Simplicity patterns!) and dead makeup (a mix of white and black Halloween cream makeup added to pale foundation, black eyeshadow for sunken features, and fake coagulated costume blood I learned about in my costume design class. = yay.). It was lots of fun; I also won a Chipotle gift card, the first prize for a costume contest I entered. :) My next question is, costume for next year? I'm thinking about doing something with steampunk, maybe.
So, that's only a sample of my life including the last 5 months and a bit of the next 4.
"And I do believe it’s true
That there are roads left in both of our shoes
But if the silence takes you
Then I hope it takes me too.
So brown eyes I hold you near
Cause you’re the only song I want to hear..."
Luv,
Zatarra.
