So today I went to NYU and went on the campus tour. Which was good. Tomorrow we're going to Columbia and The New School, so I'll have something to compare.

And then we headed to Trash & Vaudeville in hopes of finding lolita friendly clothing/shoes, and my parents basically exploded over the fact that they sold some fetish/punk clothing and the salespeople were dressed differently and spoke of things such as hookers and other assorted unpleasantry, and I basically decide that in the future I needed to befriend such a person to prove to their ignorance and such person's awesomeness.

And then we went to Soho/Little Italy/China Town in hopes of finding the Lower East Side and spotting hipsters and shopping there and such. And then we got as far as Grand St., but it was getting dark and I was losing hope of finding anything. So we walked around in several circles to finally get on the right train, and got back to the house in suburbia where we were staying at.

Tomorrow, after the college tours, we're (finally!) going to hipster/artist central, Williamsburg, Brooklyn. And then we have Sat., when I'll be headed to a Blythe gathering and dressing Gothic Lolita so we can go to the biggest cathedral in the world and take pictures, but without proper shoes or a petticoat due to my parents' fear of T & T.

And I'm missing out Fluxyblog DJ set at the Skinny in the Lower East Side as I type, and it's rather depresssing. But, hopefully, Williamsburg will make it alllll better.

I'm sitting here, and that oh so familiar summer boredom has filled me up, from the tips of my unpainted toe nails to the top of my hair. It occurs to me that, once again, I'm ready for something new and exciting. More specifically, I think I'm ready to start writing.

I've been out of practice. I've been slacking off. I'm in need of new ideas and words and I reallly want to start using one of the new notebooks I bought in China with one of my new fountain pens (even though they're not the best quality, they're so authentic! And wonderfully writerly. I love it.) It's time for searching perspective freelance gigs on the craiglist, and dreaming, and typing, and wishing and waiting.

You know, same old, same old. Therefore there's this post. A momnument to my soon to be new nad exdciting and large project concerning--whatever. These words are starting to lose control, and slip away, and I'm starting to let it slide. So that's it for now. The new nad exciting project soon to come.
