He Wolf.

i don't even know...

AW SHIT... HERE WE GO.

so, in a nutshell- north korea may or may not have torpedoed a south korean warship and killed 46 people.
(so not cool, north korea...or whoever actually did it.  rumours that it was an american ship are out there too...)
that clearly pissed south korea off, so they've taken all sorts of nasty pre war measures against north korea including halting transport and trade and using these to shout propaganda across the border. 

and you know why all this is happening?  THIS GUY. 
...
...
really?

GAGA'S GOING DOWN. (notinagoodway)

GET OUTTA MY FACE, GAGA.
i can't sleep.
for the first time in my life.
i shouldn't complain- i know. for years and years I've heard friends complain of painfully long nights, and sleepy days.
i didn't get it-until now.
why is it, that in months when i am physically and mentally exhausted, I'm not sleeping?
me- the girl who falls asleep mid party?! mid drink? mid conversation?

last night i woke up from a glorious 2 hours of sleep to a full volume dance-party/lady gaga karaoke session/rooftop deck rave. it was as ugly as it sounds.
it was the rudest awakening since i was 21 and woke up to a sharpie cock on my face and pearl jam quotes on my ass.

anyway- I'm officially going to try melatonin, i hear it works wonders. and exercise.
..
and speaking of sharpies, look what these creative cats did with theirs!
get it?  they're MASKS.
ooooooh.

idk wtf this is, but i made it.

Etymologically Speaking...


I just "stumbled" onto this sweet word origins website and decided that my favourite word today is defnitely Berserk. (AKA: Bear shirt) (yes!)


Berserk most likely comes from the Old Icelandic "berserkr," meaning "bear shirt." This refers to Scandinavian warriors who wore, quite literally, bear shirts which they thought would render them invincible. I believe the Icelandic term evolves from Scandinavian, "bjorn sherkr," but I am not sure.
 
I have no way of verifying this info- but i want so badly to believe it's true!

Working It Out

Never has the name of this blog been so appropriate as now.
I lost a dear friend two weeks ago, and I am struggling. 
I'm struggling with missing him,
with understanding why things happened the way they did,
with living. 
without him.
struggling to fill the hole in my heart left by his absence.

Now, if that sounds hopelessly depressing, it has been
but i am making progress.
working through it.
seeing blips of light and love in this darkness.

the tears still come in waves.
tsunami waves of emotion. 
of love.
of despair.
of longing.
of emptiness,
of
of
of...

i miss you too, devon.
