Alumnus Clouds

The cherry blossoms have come and gone. The cottonwood fluff has come with its wishes of summer.

We've had a taste of Summer, as the cottonwood says, 

and i'm done with school.

      

     No homework to evade any longer. No reason to obsessively check my email. 

Just deciding what to do with my life. 

I have a week off, then job searching.

Should I just take whatever job I can? Or should I wait for something Meaningful

...and what defines that anyways? Certainly the ways I'm spending my time off isn't meaningful.

I haven't even picked up a book yet, I'm barely getting my chores done.

Anyhow, I'm getting off topic. Welcome To Life Post Grad. 

Where all the dreams are tested, what will I make my life of? Will it be all the things i've learned and claimed to love?

Or will it be banana pudding, served every wednesday in the cafeteria.

Accumulation

I bought a wonderful pen. A pitt artist pen. Size s.
I killed it, by pushing too hard I think.
But before then I made wonderful doodles.
Only the coffee one is with the afore mentioned pen. The blue doodles are with a G2.

This is because I get coffe after my most exhausting class. 

I'm really enjoying doodle journaling this year. I started a blank page journal in december. Above is my notes from church around new year. 

This one is from just the other week. You are reading my journal haha, :)

This is a poem I wrote a month ago (but I edited now):

I write my self down
to read again later

every second my self is forgotten
every second I am reborn in new experience

Moment to moment I change
Day to day I am different

My self remains,

Though I don't know what 'me' is

LifeScouts

I've added a new page!
LifeScouts is something that started this year, and as someone who never did GirlScouts,
I'm pretty excited. Although to be fair, I refused to be a scout as a child.

LifeScouts is basically a way for people to share stories, and be encouraged to leave the internet and gain some experiences.

Check out lifescouts.com and see what badges you have, and share your own stories.
They sell actual pins, if you want a physical badge. Or you can just put the pictures on your blog.

I think this is a really cool thing, and am excited to use this for motivation to do more things.
So go check out the new tab, and I hope to read your stories soon.

P.S. This weekend I'm on an adventure! I went home with my roommate to a small town in south-eastern Oregon. There is snow here and it is great fun to be away and to learn her world. 

Another Goodwill Find

Looks like: Acrylic on Denim stretched in an embroidery hoop.

cute little farm seen, creative materials. I like. Didn't buy though.

Not Cheating

Umm... so...

I started a photo blog on Tumblr.

I only did it tonight so it may turn out to be nothing, and there will be photos on there I've already posted here.
But also others you haven't seen.

Glittering Ambiguity (http://glitteringambiguity.tumblr.com/)

This is the link. I hope I keep it up.

But if I do or if I don't. You can find it if you want to.

There. I told you.

Found Art

Goodwill is a kind of art museum. People make beautiful things, and leave them.
 I frequent goodwill these days, and always look through the picture frames and art.
Last time we actually bought a handmade beauty. Less than $5. A find, but almost a tragedy.
(said find is not pictured here, will post soon)

These two are very badly pictured, as I only had my phone with me. I almost took them home, mostly because I like the gold one "Evening Shadow Serenade. The coin in the triangle on the green one is a church choir pin. I love the randomness, and the chunky paint. 

Mr. Panda is not from goodwill. He is on a wall, of a building that teaches art classes. I think him very distinguished. He either plas jazz or is in the mafia. The panda mafia. They are very tricksy you know.

Happenings in Pictures

 I have meant to write and share so many things, however I have not sat down and made the time.
So first Christmas. I really only want to share the magical Christmas Tree picture. It was the first time I used any sort of tripod, and I have a full size tripod from under this tree, so hopefully there will be more fun pictures to come.

"Every time I see a train it awakens some secret nostalgic longing in me, even though I have never been on one."

  

The post before last I wrote about trains. And my lovely sister read it and decided it was time I got on a train. So for christmas she took me on a train ride. It was in Northern Arizona, and it was beautiful. Pretty cold too, there was snow beside the tracks as we moved further north.

 I loved these trees, in their fuzzy winter existence.

The last thing we did before getting back to school was go oh a hike. It was lovely. This picture reminds me of a forest adventure. I imagine walking the path of the river back up and through those trees. Encountering peace, and animals amidst the crisp air.

Now I back at school. The last semester for a while. Internship and classes. I have some other post ideas up my sleeve. Hopefully I'll get to them. 

Have a thoughtful day.
