Emily Dickinson-esque English assignment

There's a place in the bottom of the Soul 

That houses no pollution - 

You know the way to get there -

But people question your solution

Fierce winds handled with aggression -
No blame, untamed or spoken
Walks through space - Past or Present
On land that's cracked and Broken

As Wanderers and orphans, 
We came to get a Taste of rain -
Looking for no simple answers -  
Preparing to dig through the pain

Bathe in thunder, see the tension, 
Know the rivers - climb the mountains,
Kiss the cold and heal the fallen --
Share the Dreams which once were frozen.

Pressure.

I'm watching a VH1 special on America's addiction to cosmetic surgery. I'm no stranger to make up and hair straighteners, but some of these stories are so extreme it makes me sick. If you need bigger boobs to like yourself, it's not the boobs you need. And if you need bigger boobs to "launch your career," then America needs to take a step back and acquire some morals. Have you ever looked at a modeling picture that hasn't been retouched? It's amazing to see the beginning and the end side by side. It makes me wonder what the need for the model is. Why can't those "artists" just build the perfect person with their technology rather than widdel away every ounce of fat, erase every wrinkle, make the hair bigger, the hips smaller, the legs longer? I'm pretty sure we all know what a normal person looks like, we're surrounded by real people everyday. You can't retouch the real deal. Why retouch the pictures? It just makes everyone else feel like they need to go to disgusting extremes to become the spitting image of someone who's NOT REAL. There are limits, people. If you don't like yourself the way you are, it's probably not something on the outside that needs to change. Put the focus on something else. Extend your education, perfect your talent. Value someone that isn't physical. 
Some chick has more than a gallon of silicone in her boobs because she wanted to have the world's largest breasts. They're 38 KKKs. And now some airlines let you trade frequent flyer miles for free plastic surgeries. Why is that okay in anyone's mind?

This man is amazing.

Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.

Every act of creation is first an act of destruction. 

It takes a long time to become young.  

Only put off until tomorrow what you are willing to die having left undone.

Others have seen what is and asked why. I have seen what could be and asked why not. 

-Pablo Picasso

I will be happy

and I don't really care what you think about it. I'm moving on and you can't stop me, I won't be self conscious about what you think about me. 
I'm free. 

Lost.

I don't know what I want, so don't ask me, 'cause I'm still trying to figure it out.
Don't know what's down this road,
I'm just walking.
Trying to see through the rain coming down.
Even though I'm not the only one,
That feels the way I do...

I'm alone, on my own, and that's all I know.
I'll be strong, I'll be wrong,
Oh, but life goes on.
Oh, I'm just a girl, trying to find a place in this world.

Got the radio on, my old blue jeans,
And I'm wearing my heart on my sleeve. 

Feeling lucky today, got the sunshine.
Can you tell me what more do i need?
And tomorrow's just a mystery, 

Oh yeah, but that's okay.

I'm alone, on my own, and that's all I know.
I'll be strong, I'll be wrong,
Oh, but life goes on.
Oh, I'm just a girl, trying to find a place in this world.

Maybe I'm just a girl on a mission,
but I'm ready to fly.

I'm alone, on my own, and that's all I know.
Oh, I'll be strong, I'll be wrong.
Oh, but life goes on.
Oh, I'm alone, on my own, and that's all I know.
Oh, I'm just a girl, trying to find a place in this world.

Oh, I'm just a girl.
Oh, I'm just a girl.
Oh, oh.
Oh, I'm just a girl.

is SO good.

Lazy.

I always say I never have time to do everything I want to get done. Here I am, sitting on the couch, writing a blog post because I don't feel like doing my homework, don't feel like doing my chores, don't feel like driving to Tan Pro, and don't feel like painting. Basically, I need some motivation. Or some caffeine.
