Dragonfly Thoughts

Haven't updated in awhile...Although it's still August...

School will be starting soon and I still don't have any supplies, but I'm actually not all that worried about it. My room isn't finished yet either, but it's getting closer, we've primed it though so it's ready for the good paint. I'm hoping that my room will have a patchwork kind of feel to it... I've always been rather fond of patchwork... So my mom is going to do some argyle art on the sides of my book shelf and swirls on the vent in my ceiling and my best friend Meghan and I are going  to do vertical stripes on my dresser... I hope. My mom's going to get me a nice wicker trash basket for my room.

We're still hoping we'll have me moved in before school starts but only time will tell.

I've been watching squirrels a lot lately. How they move, climb trees, eat nuts, the way they look like little waves when they run. It's very fascinating. I might have to put my observations in a book. Maybe the one about the Dragonflies that I also have swimming around in the back of my head. Dragonfly Thoughts. Pretty cool right? I suppose it sounds a bit more poem like when actually written down as opposed to how it sounds in my mind. Oh well.

I read Emily the Strange and found it oddly compelling.. Makes me want to go and build a golum of my own... It'd be very resourceful. Although more than anything it makes me wish that I knew more. So now I'm reading the Dangerous Angels series by Francesca Lia Block. Pretty good, interesting names. Weird story plots and usually centered around movies that My Secret Agent Lover Man is creating. Although I do love it and her descriptions are unusually poetic. Almost finished with that though and soon to start Sunshine, then it's back to the library with me...

Hope you're all doing well and enjoying your last week of summer/ first week of school.
