Even when i'm walking on a wire, even when i set myself on fire.

Why do i always feel invisible?

School has started again. Honestly, it's really not that horrible. I have all my classes except one with my best friend and a few with other close friends. I don't have any with my other best friend though, and that makes me sad. But otherwise it's not the worst. Ironically, i have less homework now than i did over the summer. For now, anyway. But it's nice to see everyone again. It's strange how everyone changes so quickly.

I've been doing a lot of exploring in my little town lately, it's strange how many new things i find that i have never seen before. Shops i have been into a hundred times, or places i had never entered even in my nearly sixteen years of living here were suddenly full of beautiful things. I love feeling like I'm truly at home here, like i know so many of the secret passages and inconspicuous corners that seem invisible to visitors. It will be so hard to leave, when the time comes. But, then another adventure will commence, i am sure, and i can discover a home away from home. I will always come back though, i know that.

Otherwise i have been doing a bit of nothing, taking lots of pictures of pointless things and reading books. And singing. I love this time of year so much, a bit of hot a bit of cold...perfect.

The girl with kaleidoscope eyes.

These past few weeks have been filled with wonderful things, despite the dotting of stress in between.

Camping was amazing, i always forget how beautiful it is up there and how close you are to the stars. I wished upon a shooting star under a cloudless sky, sitting by the campfire having marshmallow roasting contests. I didn't win; but maybe i got my wish. The water was ice cold but it felt so good against bare skin. My breath got stolen from me every time I jumped in, but it was a good loss, for the moment. We paddled out to a little island in the middle of the lake and I took lots of pictures of shadows and rocks and water. I could have stayed there for a long while.

Yesterday was registratration for my highschool. It's so strange seeing everyone, coming back after only a few months and realizing how everyone has changed so much. I am a bit apprehensive about this year, to be honest. I can foresee breakdowns.
After, time was spent with a few of my best friends, walking endlessly and aimlessly, then nearly napping and talking until our mouths got tired. Late at night we went outside and startripped, which was halarious. I was half drunk on our laughter. I found out today that we managed to wake nearly all of my neighbours up, but it was worth it.

Other than that, I have been slaving away on my history homework and plucking at my guitar. Those of you who know me, please. Do me a favor, will you? Next year, don't let me take difficult classes. I will thank you, cross my heart.

Until later loves.

Reality is a lovely place, but i wouldn't want to live there.

I'm closer to the clouds up here anyway.

Today was a good day. Wasted away walking in circles, running across floating bridges and drawing on tables with a few choice people.
Wednesday was amazing. My mom, brother and i went to a free concert near our house at a winery, guess who i got to meet? Matt Nathanson. It made my week. Maybe my whole month. He was so sweet, and when he talked to me he really looked in my eyes. He wasn't distracted like i'm so sure many people would be. I got his new album; it really is modern love.

Tomorrow we leave for camping at my favorite place away from home. A lake with water like ice and crystal clean glass, with tiny islands out in the middle to be explored. I can't wait to take pictures. I always feel a little closer to the sky when I'm up there. It's gorgeous.
Until the return,

You are dancing through my veins.

The tranquil lights, stark water, conspicuously brave colours. Summer is the perfect time for love.

Shocks.

There's something beautiful about animals, and how they love you. Unconditionally. Unprejudiced. They don't care if you are good looking, or thin, or rich, or have high social status. They don't pay any attention to the color of skin or social beliefs or who you love. As long as you love them. And they will love you back with everything they have.

There's something beautiful about that.

I just literally got hugged by one of the coolest cats I've ever met. I wanted to kidnap him and take him home with me. I restrained myself, don't worry. But...

And it was sad news, i was not magnificent.

I know it's twisted...but i love it anyways.

Hello again. I am back. From what, you ask? Well.

Basically for the past week me and my best friend have been doing two things: laying on the couch, and watching all the Harry Potter movies in order, to make an epic Harry Potter movie marathon. This was all a build up to the second part of the 7th movie, which we saw the midnight premier of. I loved it...seriously, i did. And I cried {alot}. They did leave out a few crucial things, in my opinion; however, i would give it 9 out of 10. Maybe 9 1/2 out of 10. It was brilliant regardless :D

Anyways, other than that i have been doing alot of nothing, hanging out with someone special <3, writing alot of songs, listening to alot of Bella Ruse, {which you should check out if you haven't heard already}, and sleeping. I should probably get started on my History and English homework but...ahh! One more day i can relax, then I'll crack down. Maybe.
Oh, also, in other news, i got my nose pierced! It really didn't hurt barely at all, but for some reason a few minutes afterwards, i thought i was going to black out. I had to lay down and elevate my feet...it was pretty embarrassing. But the girl who pierced it was really cool. So, it was all and all okay.

Well, overall this is a rather boring post, but i felt it was semi necessary since it has been awhile.
Later lovelies.

You were my concience, so silent now you're like water.

So a few nights ago in the late/early hours of the night/morning, i was laying in bed half asleep, and i had what i thought was a semi-brilliant idea. Make a blog about music..as in, every time i find a cool band, i would post it. Fully awake it sounds less brilliant and more mildly cool, but hey. With summer comes a small amount of boredom, however much appreciated. So, here go's nothing. If you're in need of some music i think is awesome, check it out ;)
