Okay.
I miss this.
Life has been really good this summer. I feel awful that I haven't written about the things I've been doing in such a long time. Things change so much that the person that I was when I updated constantly was probably different then the present Palmer. Not in bad ways, I don't think?
So what have I been doing? I've been taking a Geography summer course at El Co for the past five weeks, which is going well enough so far. I attempted it the last two semesters but I ended up missing too many classes and dropping it both semesters. That may have been the other me, or the current me.
This time I'm getting an A, despite the fact that I've heard all of the teacher's anecdotes. He tells them the exact same way every time, delivering it like a stand-up routine almost. It's interesting when you're hearing it for the first time.
I've been dieting recently. I generally just eat Lean Cuisines and bike to school every day (eight miles roundtrip, ouch). I've lost about sixteen pounds so far, no bad. Every night for a month I've laid in bed thinking about what life would be like if I was skinny. Its ridiculous.
I've been trying to read more...I honestly stopped when I smoked more than I do now, because I can't pay attention when I'm stoned. But the book I'm reading now, "Norwegian Wood," by Haruki Murakami, is so great, it's making me love reading again. I like this a lot:
Midori lifted her face and look at me. "You have this special way with words."
"I can feel my heart softening when you say that," I said, smiling.
"Say something even nicer."
"I really like you, Midori. A lot."
"How much is a lot?"
"Like a spring bear," I said.
"A spring bear?" Midori looked up again. "What's that all about? A spring bear."
"You're walking through a field all by yourself one day in spring, and this sweet little bear cub with velvet fur and shiny little eyes comes walking along. And he says to you, "Hi, there, little lady. Want to tumble with me?" So you and the bear cub spend the whole day in each other's arms, tunbling down this clover-covered hill. Nice, huh?"
"Yeah. Really nice."
"That's how much I like you."
And it's translated from Japanese. I really want to say that to someone.
Oh, I almost forgot, I made my YouTube debut last week. I'm not particularly proud, and I still hate the way I look, but I think both videos are ridiculous enough that I have to show you them.
So keep in mind I was tipsy heading towards drunk.
Okay, I'm going to go smoke out my window and stare at the stars.
How is everyone?
Love,
Palmer
