This is goodbye?

It has been over 2 years since I've made you aware of my love for anatomy with my first post ever. After these 2 years of crappy templates, I have become aesthetically sick of this blog. I truly wish blogger would up its game and come correct when it comes to better layouts. Unfortunately, my html skills are way subpar and I cannot rely on myself to make a good layout. With that being said, I'm going to try and make my tumblr my primary blog. Perhaps I'll be back, the world may never know.

"She breaks off her reading and looks outside. From this second-story window she can look down on the busy street. Even at a time like this, the street is bright enough and filled with people coming and going--people with places to go and people with no places to go; people with a purpose and people with no purpose; people trying to hold time back and people trying to urge it forward." pg. 7

Hi! If you like to read you MUST make an account and add me on Goodreads to read my reviews on books I have read and see what I'm currently reading! and of course, vice versa! ^___^

"I once read a story about three brothers ho washed up on an island in Hawaii. A myth. An old one. I read it when I was a kid, so I probably don't have the story exactly right, but it goes something like this. Three brothers went out fishing and got caught in a storm. They drifted on the ocean for a long time until they washed up on the shore of uninhabited island. It was a beautiful island with coconuts growing there and tons of fruit on the trees, and a bit, high mountain in the middle. The night they got there, a god appeared in their dreams and said, 'A little farther down the shore, you will find three big, round boulders. I want each of you to push his boulder as far as he likes. The place you stop pushing your boulder is where you will live. The higher you go, the more of the world you will be able to see from your home. It's entirely up to you how far you want to push your boulder.'" [...] "So the three brothers found three boulders on the shore just as the god had said they would. And they started pushing them along as the god told them to. Now these were huge, heavy boulders so rolling them was hard, and pushing them up a incline took an enormous effort. The youngest brother quit first. He said, 'Brothers, this place is good enough for me. It's close to the shore, and I can catch fish. It has everything I need to go on living. I don't mind if I can't see that much of the world from here.' His two eldest brothers pressed on, but when they were midway up the mountain, the second brother quit. He said, 'Brother, this place is good enough for me. there is plenty of fruit here. It has everything I need to go on living. I don't mind if I can't see that much of the world from here.' The eldest brother continued walking up the mountain. The trail grew increasingly narrow and steep, but he did not quit. He had great powers of perseverance, and he wanted to see as much of the world as he possibly could, so he kept rolling the bolder with all his might. He went on for months, hardly eating or drinking, until he had rolled the boulder to the very peak of the high mountain. There he stopped and surveyed the world. Now he could see more of the world than anyone. This was the place he would live--where no grass grew, where no birds flew. For water, he could only lick the ice and frost. For food, he could only gnaw on moss. Be he had no regrets, because now he could look out over the whole world. And so, even today, his great, round boulder is perched on the peak of that mountain on an island in Hawaii." pg. 20-22

"Her black hair cascades across the pillow like a flood of dark water." pg.30

"A beautiful girl sleeping on and on in bed. Her straight black hair spreads over the pillow like a deeply meaningful fan. Softly pursed lips. Heart and mind at the bottom of the sea." pg. 64

"Wherever the intention of each may lie, we are together being carried along at the same speed down the same river of time." pg. 109

"A giant octopus living way down deep at the bottom of the ocean. It has this tremendously powerful life force, a bunch of long, undulating legs, and it's heading somewhere, moving through the darkness of the ocean. I'm sitting there listening to these trials, and all I can see in my head is this creature. It takes on all kinds different shapes--sometimes it's 'the nation,' and sometimes it's 'the law,' and sometimes it takes on shapes that are more difficult and dangerous than that. You can try cutting off its legs, but they just keep growing back. Nobody can kill it. It's too strong, and it lives too far down in the ocean. Nobody knows where its heart is. What I felt then was a deep terror. And a kind of hopelessness, a feeling that I could never run away from this thing, no matter how far I went. And this creature, this thing doesn't give a damn that I'm me or you're you. In its presence, all human beings lose their names and their faces. We all turn into signs, into numbers." pg. 118

"...any single human being, no matter what kind of person he or she may be, is all caught up in the tentacles of this animal like a giant octopus, and is getting sucked into the darkness. You can put any kind of spin on it you like, but you end up with the same unbearable spectacle." pg. 120

"A visual hallucination aroused by our desire to see some kind of change." pg. 130

"All we have to do is separate from the flesh, leave all substance behind, and allow ourselves to become a conceptual point of view devoid of mass. With that accomplished, we can pass through any wall, leap over any abyss." pg. 131

"Again and again she tries to trace her memory back, but it gives out each time like a short thread." pg. 135

"But it's possible for people to draw closer to each other even while they keep a reasonable distance between them." "Of course it's possible," Takahashi says. "But what seems like a reasonable distance to one person might feel too far to somebody else." pg. 148

"Finally, no matter what I say, it doesn't reach her. This layer, like some kind of transparent sponge kind of thing, stands there between Eri Asai and me, and the words that come out of my mouth have to pass through it, and when that happens, the sponge sucks almost all the nutrients right out of them. She's not listening to anything I say--not really." pg. 151-152

"She's raising wordless screams and bleeding invisible blood." pg. 158

"It's my motto for life. 'Walk slowly; drink lots of water.'" pg. 173

"I don't really know what's going on, of course, but it seems to me your sister must have some big problem she's trying to deal with, something she can't solve on her own. So all she wants to do is go to bed and sleep, to get away from the flesh-and-blood world for a while." pg. 198

"Someday you'll find the right person, Mari, and you'll learn to have a lot more confidence in yourself. That's what I think. So don't settle for anything less. In this world, there are things you can only do alone, and things you can only do with somebody else. It's important to combine the two in just the right amount." pg. 204

"But that's the one thing I'll never be able to outrun. Nobody can shake off their own shadow." pg. 204

"..people's memories are maybe the fuel they burn to stay alive." pg. 206

Past/Future

I really think this should say, "Please don't let what was get in the way of what IS"

I think the times people struggle most are when they think of the past or the future and don't focus on what is going on right this very moment.

"Thrown Right At Me" --The Tallest Man on Earth

2011-07-06T09:23:00.000-07:00

Jump 'long the creekside
The rock's crooked line
Fun curls your hair and
The days open wide

And horses trot faster 'til sparrows fall down
But you just fall, laughin', to the snow on the ground
You grew up by playin' the valley so wild
And that's why
You're so beautiful now

And, dancin' your bike to the lonesome, young mare
You call up her owner; say your heart will be there
You'll build a collection of scars on your knees
To learn how to count the impossible trees
You grew up by climbin' the birches so high
And that's why
You're so beautiful now

And we live so close that we probably seen
The same bird, the same time
They solumnly scream
One day, I'll find just that friend who can see
All this weird beauty
Thrown right at me

Growin' by playin' the valley so wild
And that's why
You're so beautiful now

GTs=Good Times as my friend Keith would call them. And my thought is, if you want to remember them forever, you better write them down. It is really easy for humans to forget things with this ever changing quick pace world we live in..ya know? Plus, I don't think people write enough these days anyway. They're too busy putting up stati on facebook, tweeting on twitter, or blogging (haha). Don't underestimate the power of writing.

^My Senior Collections book.

Click "Click for More" (or that link haha) for the APD2011 (Apparel Design) Senior Video and an *EXCLUSIVE* 3 part movie of the show directed by my very own Father (: !!! Its adorable, you'll regret it if you don't watch it! PLUS you can see me acting a little CATTY/antsy before the show started and if you hate me or ever hated me....you get to see my CRY towards the end!! Yay! We all win!

PS. Please don't hold my emotions against me. This was the most important night of my ENTIRE college career. And like all the other APD girls, I worked four years for these couple of hours. YES I will be anxious before the show. YES I will have a panic attack if a crotch zipper breaks. YES everything has to be perfect. and YES I will cry when it is over because my life has consisted of all nighters, NO sleep, NO social life, and a crappy diet for the passed 4 years that has probably taken approx. 18 years off my life and it is FINALLY OVER.

I made that senior vid for my APD biddies (:

Thoughts on Balls

2011-06-23T09:41:00.000-07:00

Unfortunately, I will not be expressing my stand on the male genitalia often associated with the word "balls," but rather the word "courage" often associated with the phrase "having balls". To me, meeting a person who "has balls" is very rare thing to come across. As I grow older and the years roll on, I begin to see how unhappy people are. I've also noticed that most of their unhappiness comes from occupational decisions they have made. Often, I feel that people choose occupations that will guarantee them a stable income in the future. They do not realize that though these jobs offer a secure financial life, most of the time they are not self rewarding and I've heard time and time again that these people wish they chosen to do something that actually made them happy. This is where "balls" come in. I think it takes a lot of "balls" to do something you genuinely love despite society's overwhelming message of "make money, money, make money, money, money!!" In my heart of hearts, I truly believe that if you do what you love--the money will follow. So have balls, and be happy.

On the "ball" subject...we should get used to calling them ovaries too. Ovaries are also spherical and with out ovaries, there would be no balls.

On the "people who take the path of high earning jobs have no balls" subject..that's NOT my message. I believe there are many people actually love going after jobs like that--my Mom, who is a nurse, for example. I was just saying there are a lot of people who go for those jobs that ONLY do it for the money and have their passions elsewhere.

Thoughts on Insecurities...

2011-06-21T14:16:00.000-07:00

Starting to feel insecure about your body? Well, don't. Everyone has one. But physicalities aren't the most beautiful things about a human, or any living thing for that matter. It is the spirit, the mind that holds all the stability, the love, the beauty, the light, the story. The mind doesn't manifest itself in one's body, but in one's actions. So the next time you ask yourself, "Do I look good today?" look to analyze your actions instead of your body for the answer.

VEGAS TOMORROW! ....?

2011-06-12T18:41:00.000-07:00

So, I'm going to Las Vegas tomorrow with a couple of APD ladies for about a week. I went last summer with my family (all of whom were at least 21 EXCEPT ME). So tomorrow I get to do Vegas right, and not get denied at all the clubs hahaha. So why am I not excited for this week long of maxn relaxn by poolsides, evening out my runner's tan, clubbing, partying 24/7? I HAVE NO IDEA. Its bothering me A LOT. Not even "Like a G6" is working. This is a problem. Though the following short tidbit of conversation with my friend Jenna seems to be sort of working...

Me: Jenna, I'm not really excited for Vegas tomorrow, idk what's wrong with me ):
Jenna: Well, think about it as the spring break you never had because you were too busy working on senior collections.

AND THAT IS WHEN I GOT MY FIRST SPARK OF EXCITEMENT. This is the truth. While more than half of my friends were partying it up in Florida for SB, all I did was work min of 15 hours a day on my senior collections. It sucked that my last spring break of college I spent it in my make shift sewing lab in my living room at home. Welp, I guess I gotta make the next week count (; I'm sure it'll all hit me when we flyin fly like a G6 in the plane!!!

Good Life ^___^

2011-06-05T17:05:00.000-07:00

So life has been so crazy the passed month. I had my senior fashion show, won first place, got all As and Bs in my classes, and graduated with over a 3.0, and two majors. Along with a lot of celebrating came a lot of good byes, but I like to call them see you laturz. I've only been home for a couple of days and my, how different everything all seems to me now. A lot of my friends see moving back home after college as a depressing part of life, but I'm starting to be more positive and happy about it. I don't plan on being here for too long...who knows what will happen. All I really know for sure in this time of uncertainty is that I'm one lucky human being to have had an opportunity to go to college, graduate, and to have a great future ahead of me. Cheers ^_____^!

Is It Time? T____T

I'm deathly afraid to announce the death of my Doc Martens. They have literally grown attached to my legs, as I've had them for over 4 years. And yes, that was way before combat boots were in and hip to the jive. I was ridiculed (way too strong of a word) for them at first, then 2 years later they became cool. It can't be the end. I won't allow it. NEVERRRR. NEVER.

1 Corinthians 13

2011-04-05T17:13:00.001-07:00

1If I speak in the tongues^a of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. 2If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames,^b but have not love, I gain nothing.

4Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

8Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. 9For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears. 11When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. 12Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.

13And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.
