morrigirlHello journal,
Well, Aurelie came in last night. She seems like a really nice girl. She is an international law student and is in the city doing an internship this summer with an Amnesty International type group. She has a very thick accent but seems to understand everything we say and speaks english pretty well. I do not at the moment foresee having any problems with her.
I went on a very long walk last night. I went all the way down to 62nd street for the first time since coming back, and I went into all my favorite shops on the way. I went into Urban Outfitters and guess what they have there? ROLLER SKATES! They had these awesome baby blue Pumas that were 125 bucks! I would have totally bought them only they were all out :( I also went into Tower and indulged in their cassette sale, three for ten bucks! So I bought 52nd Street by Billy Joel, (My other world is just a million miles away) The Bangles greatest hits, and a comedy album by Robin Williams. I also went into Barnes and Noble and bought a new book called Nocturnal Witchcraft.
I've kinda been milling over the idea of what purpose my depression serves. In ancient times people with mental illnesses were not considered sick. Rather they were thought to have special powers, a deeper connection with unseen forces. In essence they experienced reality on a deeper level. I started to try and view my sickness from this point of view. If I am tuning in to unseen forces then what am I suppose to do with that awareness? Nocturnal Witchcraft sounded like it might help point me in the right direction.
And speaking of Barnes and Noble Gayle, bless here sweet little heart got me a gift certificate to B and N online for my birthday! How sweet is that! Oh and I got all my film back yesterday! I have some fabulous shots from the parent-stundent mingler. I have this great one of Gayle and Heather that I took one look at and stuck directly into a frame. I love them both so much.
Spoke to T the other night online. She leaves for upstate tomorrow. She is scared because she won't have any friends. But people love T. I'm not worried about her.
And I FINALLY decided what I want to do for my birthday TOMORROW :) I think I'm gonna drag everyone out to dinner and then I want to rent some movies and watch them at home. I told mom I want to rent Beloved and the Others. Nice depressing films :)
Okay that's it, that's my life, nothing new, back to the living room couch to watch more Buffy.
BYEEEEEEEEEE,
Carla
