karen o. and today



it's really warm outside but i've spent my day inside tidying and reading magazines and newspapers. i've needed a day to catch up with my apartment. the japandroids poster on my door and the taped-up post cards around my windowsill still prove that i have the room of a teenager. i wonder when i'll get big-people furniture and not poor-man's ikea furniture. or if i'll ever even do that. maybe i'll just live in hostels and with host families and with friends forever. then i won't ever feel obliged to invest in nice things.

my dad came home yesterday. tonight, i will be joining my siblings to a once a year event when we're all in the same house. it's very difficult to arrange everyone to be in one place at once and when it happens it's funny to see family dynamics snap into place. this weekend, i will re-take my place as the middle child. jan jan jan.

i am very close to not completing anything this semester. remember how i wanted to go back to school? i don't.
i would la la love to work with these guys (females) this summer, but it's difficult to even offer free work when the job market is so bad that i have to do independent research projects because there's a surplus of volunteers.

lately, lately.
