March 2011
when your mom puts up pictures of you skiing on facebook and you’re all up in your unwieldy neck gaiter and hand me down jacket and skiing pictures are just not the most attractive things in the world and it’s not so big of a deal that you’d untag yourself because you’re too lazy and the pictures will be there anyways and skiing isn’t really embarassing but that darn neck gaiter i dislike the unbalanced aspect of either having a freezing face or a gross sniffly one while skiing and i dislike neck gaiters and that part of skiing and
and then you don’t quite know what to do so you’re not going to do anything and this is a really really really pointless post okbye
doubts
I just read a comment from a 2004 article by the NY Times about the loneliest whale in the world. Scientists have been tracking her since 1992 and they discovered the problem:
She isn’t like any other baleen whale. Unlike all whales, she doesn’t have friends. She doesn’t have a family. She doesn’t belong to any tribe, pack or gang. She doesn’t have a lover. She never had one.
Her songs come in groups of two to six calls, lasting for five to six seconds each. But her voice is unlike any other baleen whale. It is unique—while the rest of her kind communicate between 12 and 25Hz, she sings at 51.75Hz.
You see, that’s precisely the problem. No other whales can hear her. Every one of her desperate calls to communicate remains unanswered. Each cry ignored. And with every lonely song, she becomes sadder and more frustrated, her notes going deeper in despair as the years go by.
i think this is one of the saddest things i’ve ever read.
Holy crap I’m gonna cry or something
i love me so much i wrote such a cool letter to myself meep i love it
Dear anna,
I hope you forget all about htis letter so it seems cooler to read later. anyways… this tour was great for you because you got to know so many people better and you felt fabulous ecause of it. right now I’d like you to remember all the seniors you’ll miss, just because you should. now you have ‘love for a child’ by Jason Mraz stuck in your head. you will be crying a lot and sleeping none tonight. remember emparo and enrique and hocsan and victor and saul and vallanita and siver (sp?) and your family back in mexico. remember their radical hospitality. remember that god’s love is active and that god is here and now and in everyone. and it’s awesome. keep him with you. it’ll now be junior year and i hope you’ll not have ripped all your hair out from stress by now. keep breathing and everything will be okay. it will. go back to tour. breathe.
<3<3<3 anna.

jah mon that she will. i feel like there’s gonna be a big freshman class in ds next year dude were there any last year?
oh and did i tell you guys how my mom likes born this way and that single fact has kept me entertained and the song stuck in my head for the rest of the day
even though i’ve known that for like a week already
still entertaining.
so i talked to rossy today and got my sister all set for dance spectrum next year and shes all flipping out about it haha.
not like she was freaking out at me about emailing her last night or anything because its all okay because she is happy and shes off my case and i went straight to sleep without doing anything last night anyways and her doing dance also means she’s not doing cheer which i’m happy about because (no offense whatsoever to cheerleaders/cheerleading i love you all and i wish i could do flips and be spirited too) when it comes down to that versus dance and shes never even done cheer before and shes danced all her life and she’s accident prone to begin with and it sounded like she was just doing it to be with friends and whatever and she was just using it as a threat to me if i didn’t get her into dance which was stupid but whatever dance is just a preferred choice for her but yeah.
i feel like i did just offend the cheerleaders. so i do love and admire you all you are amazing people okay got it.
but yeah erin is off my back and she’s set for dance and it’s all good.
