~ Week Two in the New Place ~
Met this guy. He interrupted me while I was re-sketching that Jackson-san drawing. What is it? Will I never be able to sketch in peace down here, is that it? I don't know about staying if that's the case, honestly. But I guess I'll see how it goes.
Also, when I was sketching a rather nice view from the beach, I ran into an interesting young lady. She was rather pretty, and I'm sure lots of guys around here are crazy about her, but... again, not my type of person to hang around. I don't know why. I guess there's just some people who don't really want to meet you and so it's hard to get along with them.
It was kind of interesting though, how she jumped into the ocean in front of me, completely enthralled with the cool water and the feeling of the waves crashing onto her.
I decided, once I got home... that was canvas worthy. So that's the last thing I have on the easel. Not sure if I like it or not. Maybe I'll just have to let it sit.
I'm bored and want to sketch something hard. Therefore, I will go somewhere with moving creatures of weird proportions. Gonna go the Aquarium later today. Yeah, I guess that's the best I've got.
So, today is Thursday and the week's been slow. 'Dad' wants me to get a job, saying it will “benefit my life” and give me “life experience.” What the hell? Since when do I need life experience?
Whatever. So I guess I'm looking for a job.
AND a girlfriend. 'Mom' says that, if I'm gonna go getting a job – which I never agreed to, but 'Dad' says he'll cut off part of my art money if I don't at least TRY – then I'll need some “companionship” to balance out the stress.
Yay stress.
So, now I need a job, and a girlfriend.
Like hell. Just because I've moved away they think they can give me advice? Make contact? This is getting weirder and weirder. I mean, I guess I wouldn't exactly mind getting a girlfriend. I hear it's a good challenge – ha – and lots of fun and you get to learn how to be yourself while being what someone else needs. Girls are cool. They're all expressive and silly and most of the ones I've seen are really, really, really pretty. Fun to draw.
I just haven't met anyone yet who's piqued my interests enough.
Maybe I need to meet more girls? Yay.
Oh, and someone at bible study last night commented on my language. “You shouldn't talk that way. God doesn't like you to talk to fellow Christians with such disrespect.”
Crap.
Crap crap.
Yeah, deal with it. I learned in highschool like most kids do. You can't change me just by telling me “God doesn't want it”, because, honestly, I don't think you really have a clue what God wants for me, or you would be minding your own business.
I've never heard of someone who knew God and thought they would go to Hell because of profanity. I've heard it can hurt people's feelings and that it can give other people the habit, but I never saw the words – or anything like them - “Thou shalt not say 'crap'” in the Bible anywhere.
And, the whole 'hell' thing. It says not to use God's name in vain. I'm not. I seriously think that saying “like hell” is no worse than saying “I'm in heaven” and maybe even better. Because, who cares if you abuse the devil's crib? No one's gonna get mad and say “You shouldn't bad talk the Devil, it's disrespectful.” So why tell me not to reference “hell”. Honestly.
Okay, done.
Listening to Kate Voegele, is, like, sitting in front of a fan in the hottest time of Summer. Like a rush of cool ocean water on your face. Like finally making it into the pool after having to walk barefoot across the pavement. Yeah, that kind of awesome. It's just, really relaxing. I love it.
I was in my music folder, as guess what I found there?
Arashi, L'Arc en Ciel, NEWS, D'espairsray, Cool Joke, V6, and M.A.I.N. So that's what I've been listening to, in that order. Arashi is kinda too... hippity-hoppy for the most part, though “Truth”, “Believe” and “Typhoon Generation” are the ones I really like. Found some of the solos as videos online, even though I only found a few I liked most of them. “Niji” is pretty much awesome, and I wish I could play piano and sing! “Take Me Faraway” is okay. “Naked” is pretty cool.
L'Arc en Ciel's slow stuff is pretty cool. “AS ONE” gave me a migraine, but I really enjoy “Butterfly's Sleep”, “Larva”, “What is Love”, “Ophelia”, “My Dear” and “Jojoushi”. I still have a bit to go, even though I have just “ark” and “AWAKE” by them. Need more. I'll let you know the rest as I get to them.
Random scary thing: Ninomiya Kazunari of Arashi looks a lot like me.
Yeah, I know. Weird.
Okay, I guess I'll just, like, go now.
God bless,
Wahei Raiu
