I dreamt of a purse.

Not exactly a purse but an olive colored (yes I remember the color) shoulder bag, which is exactly what I need desperately in real life. I remember I was shopping with my mom (you could tell it’s a dream cuz in real life that never happens), and I fell in love with this purse. My mom of course represents the cautiousness in me (which I’m positive that I got from her) I guess, said it was ugly, so after a while I started to think it was ugly too. The main while, while me and mom arguing about how was the purse ugly, I lose my current shoulder bag and some gurl found it and she was going through my stuff. I was not very happy naturally, but I didn’t show cuz the gurl was being polite. That kind of reminds me of my appointment with my eye doctor yesterday for a check up. When I got there he was having fun talking to a female patient/customer/client/friend in the showroom. 10 minutes past my appointment time, he showed no sign of stopping so the receptionist went and got him, then he hurried into the exam room and spent 42 seconds with me and very politely sent me off. Naturally I wasn’t very happy because the first time around (before I paid for anything of course), he was a lot more patient and friendly.

started reading..

Watership Down by Richard Adams.

The Catcher in the Rye

This is the book of the moment. Holden is not your typical teenage boy, he’s very sure of his feelings. And I wonder how people get to be that way, cuz it’s very hard to find. Or at least it was a struggle for me.

Finished on Saturday, June 23. It flows, as if they were your own thoughts instead of words that you read in a book. Though I know every single thought of Holden’s is probably well thought out and structured by the author, by still it all comes so naturally it flows. The emotions are just right too.

Creativity

Haven’t been feeding my creativity, and it’s dying. you’d thought you’ve got it for life but think again! like life itself it needs to be nourished, with healthy stuff hopefully, and properly cared for. The raw material was so readily available when you were all day hanging out in the art department, you took it for granted. It is not until you’re without it then you’d have a clue.

Priceless

Desk (Fredrik dk brown from IKEA, $119), moved from one corner of the dinner table to finally having my own space
Contact Lens (+ eye exam with Dr. Dickey, 901 Montana Ave, $139), being able to see the monitor without wearing glasses or squinting
Running Shoes (Top to Top, 2621 Wilshire Blvd, $105), feeling the extra padding absorbing the shock every time I pound the treadmill
