4/23/10

It is the eye of ignorance that assigns a fixed and unchangeable color to every object; beware of this stumbling block.
~Paul Gauguin

(My mom taught me this years ago, i must have been 5 or 6 at the oldest, when we were drawing with some crayons and she drew a tree with a purple trunk and blue leaves. I remember the unsettling shock when i saw this. I was dumbstruck. I use all the crayons now, but i still dont draw outside the lines.)


1:52pm-
Sitting in the subway eating PEZ waiting for the train so I can go comforter shopping.

2:37pm-
In a bed bath and beyond.
I've never appreciated one so much!


3:05pm-
Just walked into a T. J. Maxx along with a gaggle of older ladies.

4:18pm-
A fight just broke out in the park.
Someone said the 'N word' and someone else started trying to beat him up.

5:18pm-
Avatars at the park.



6:02pm-
Just found a new favorite place. It sells plaster and paint and clay and everything that I would normally find in our school room for free.

Note: I decided, along with editing, (but because editing is so precise and thought out and organized) that I'm going to work on molding and sculpting and get good at special effects and things like guts and blood and zombies and monsters (because its more of a hands on 'see what happens' and 'make a mess and hope it works out' kind of thing. Need to stay balanced.)

8:28pm-
Down town in the cool area for a show that started at 8. Were a little late and now it's full. So were looking at sunglasses.


8:36pm-
The guy keeps putting sunglasses on shay telling him 'these are the good ones for you.'

9:07pm-
Went into the dance during intermission.
Slowly realizing how lame these kids really are.
Guuys.... NYU isn't an autocool...

10:47pm-
-In the subway.
-Guy playing a key board singing a soulful song.
-Shay, inspired, starts dancing.
-Lady watching loves it.

12:27am-
Somehow we got involved in a dance off in the hallway with a Latino man who swore he could dance. I'm pretty sure this guy was serious. And also drunk and/or high.
Me and the two older ladies who were with him couldn't stop laughing.
Mostly cause he was so serious.

Said in a slow, drawn out, dramatic Antonio Banderas voice:
"You dance? I dance."

*dancing*

*serious, straight-face dancing*

-The Confrontation

-The Challenge

-The Applause

"Ok. lets see what you got."

*It starts*

*..and intensifies..*

-The Duel

*Double Combat*

*Tricks*

-The 'Dance' of the Duel

-The Spectators (in the background)

*stunts*

"Alright, man... So you CAN dance. ...Not bad, brother."

We left letting him think that he won.
But he still wanted a rematch.
Another day, sir.

12:38am-
Looking for cosmic brownies. Three stores and still can't find any.

12:51am-
Returned with two bags of cereal, three rolls of powdered doughnuts and a honey bun.

3:24am-
We just (started and) finished watching all of the mini series We Could Be Heroes (by Chris Lilley) and also finished more than half of all the terrible junk food we bought.
Now time to go throw up and then to bed. Gotta be up early.
