i'll swim backwards

i should probably be working on my contemporary film paper. instead i am listening to itunes and wishing i had the elizabethtown soundtrack. it wouldn't be adverse to have the dvd either. definitely a purchase i will be making.

last night i got a smoothie with rachel and then proceeded to spit it all over my freshly cleaned pants. it was all rachel's fault. i am enjoying our conversations. it is much fun. even though we talk about nothing. marc is going to end up hating me though. seriously about four times now he has called and rachel tells him she is talking to me. and of course the whole boys thing will surely make him hate me. oh well what can you do?

i tried to draw a pumpkin this morning after steph sent me a link. i failed. i think i also lost the composition contest from last year. very upsetting. fifty dollars would be quite handy right now.

i am tutoring today. i tutored before but it was usually peers and informal. this seems more offical and there is more pressure. i want to do well and i can't afford to screw up. sure it is only math but these kids need to do well. i have it in my head that this is a trial run for teach for america. and for some reason i feel like if i fail here i fail in general. that is completely stupid considering the situation. no matter, i have figured out that while i am quite logical and i sometimes ignore my own sense of reason.

do you ever feel like you are walking a straight path that seems to be a line but is really the circumference of a huge loop?
