I am eating pine nuts and they taste like tiny trees

I finished them as I was typing that sentence.

Right now, I actually have nothing to do. And somehow, that makes me feel guilty. It's like the second week of summer holidays, once the relief and novelty wear off and you're stuck in a zombie routine of reading, watching TV and going online. Reading, watching TV, and going online. Reading, watching TV, and going online. But unlike summer holidays, I have this nagging feeling in the back of my head saying I really should be doing something. Writing an essay or studying for a test. It's been 10 months since I've been at "real" school, and I still can't adjust to having nothing to procrastinate on. My art class ended a couple of Saturdays ago, and this coming Monday will be my last guitar lesson. I'm thinking of picking up a few commitments to replace the old ones, but I can't really think of anything. If you have any suggestions, feel free to throw them out there; I really have no idea.

My brother decided to be terribly nice to people today, and said it resulted in the best day of his life. I want to follow this shining example and tell people all the compliments I've held back, no matter how unconventional they may be. "You look like Kevin Bacon, only much less funny-looking." "You act the way Truman Capote writes." "You have a very look-at-able face." That kind of thing. The prospect of all this kindness makes me excited. I just hope I'm not too shy to carry it out.

I am seriously missing the dudes of Summerstock, despite not knowing them very well. Kevin, Kylian, Alex, Luke, Dean, Liam, Mike...those dudes seriously know entertainment. I need to kick myself into visiting someday.Maybe Friday. Maybe next week. I don't know.

I don't mean to sound so depressive. It just kind of happens when I sit down and type at a computer. Here, have some delight: http://bentobjects.blogspot.com/index.html

I love the whole world.

Yes! Visit Stock! That's what you can do in your spare time! Pllleeease!

And we never did go rucksack wandering. This made me sad. Perhaps during hiatus we can find time, and we will leap from boulder to boulder, just like Japhy.

Eeep! That website is VERY cool.

Call the guys and invite them to sushi! They wouldn't say no!
