SUMMER//FALL

the west coast<>east coast mind meld was a perfect end of summer. It was everything full circle from where I left it last August to move back, except this FALL I'll be in New York and getting started on all the things I should have started last Fall, but instead let myself get side tracked in other people's ideas and dreams for me. I don't want that anymore, I want to be productive in myself, it seems as if I'm always trying to work with other people on projects and it slows me down; weighs me down. I'm so excited for this Fall.

SF was amazing, I saw all the people I missed and met new friends to miss in the future, new friends to visit too and be pen pals with. when I was there we talked about how sad it is that pen pal culture that was so vital in riot grrl in the 90's is virtually dead now: I hate that, I'm bringing pen pal buddies back! starting this Fall. I'm psyched on all the care packages and little projects I have whirling around in my head to send all buddies-if I can get my tape player fixed, mix tapes will be part of that too. Classes start next Monday-I'm excited to do that again and get working in the bakery again.
