I know, I know. I KNOW. I’m late with posting again. Look, I’m gradating from high school in a few days. Lay off. No post today, sorry.

Woo

I’m not in the mood for sketching today, so here are some snippets from old poetry I found, and some new.

(2006)

“The true good in humans

is what’s in their hearts

not what they wear

not where they start”

It’s no secret that I love the band Cartel. I discovered them in my early days of Pandora, when they popped up in my Boys Like Girls station. I actually wrote a review for their second album back in 2008 (almost exactly two years ago… seriously I posted it in April.).

Today, three years ago, I had my first kiss. Ok, so maybe technically I had my first kiss when I was in preschool, but that was kind of an accident and it doesn’t really count.

FINALLY. I know. Oops.

I’m not a nerd.

I’m not even a very good girl.

But I am a person.

A person with feelings, hopes, desires.

But I’m also a person with secrets.

Secrets that could break apart the way my family looks at me, as well as some of my friends.

I’m a person with desires.

Desires… far from reach yet not quite unattainable.

I’m a hormonal teenage girl as well.

I crush.

I cry.

I ‘forget’ to do my homework.

I swear.

And I dream at night of how things could be different.

I dream at night, pretending to be someone I will not ever be.

Because that’s the only thing I have to hope for.

That someday I can be Vannah.

This video is mostly just random. I cradle a one pound thing of yarn. I lead the troops into battle. I discuss the effects a can of Axe Spray has on teenagers. Enjoy.

…and I’m counting it for my visual art of the day.
