Open up my head and let me out

SO FIRST OF ALL… I’m very upset that nobody commented on my pictures because I thought they were friggin funny. DON’T COMMENT NOW ITS TOO LATE! YOU LOSE! Or I do… Anyways.. Its cold in my house. And I am supposed to be drawing right now but of course I’m putting it off to the very last second.. Friggin drawing. 2 more months… So lately I’ve been pondering excessively and its starting to hurt my head. About a week ago I had the following conversation (or something close to it..)

M: How was your weekend?
D: mmm I don’t remember
M: okkayyy…
D: lol- I wasn’t drunk all weekend
M: I didn’t say you were
D: I know you’re judging me…

So while the conversation was friendly and we were just kidding around, it really made me think. I’m not particularly close with D, He knows my dad was an alcoholic and that I don’t drink but I’m pretty sure he doesn’t know why-I’ve been re-thinking my stance on the whole anti-alcohol issue and it’s sort of freaking me out. All my life it’s always been so black and white- drinking=bad sobriety=good. Now I’m finding its not that easy, and that there are a lot of grey areas. I think that I subconsciously think that just because a person drinks that automatically means that they are an addict. While I know that’s not true, I have a hard time believing it. If that makes any sense. I’m not saying that I want to go out and change the way that I live, but I think I need to re-asses how I view people. I don’t want to prematurely judge somebody just because of choices that they make. Just like I would never judge somebody for their religious or political beliefs, I shouldn’t judge people for consuming various substances. It’s just hard for me. I have a really hard time being around people that are intoxicated- The thought of having friends like that terrifies me. Not only because its hard for me to be around, but also it freaks me out to think that I may eventually give in. But just because I’m scared doesn’t mean I should shut people out all together.. Right? I ended a couple friendships last year because of this topic and I’m beginning to wonder if I ended them because of my convictions or because of my fears. Well anyways… If you have any feedback I’d really appreciate it. Have a good’un

So… This is what happens when I don’t want to do my Drawing Homework..

Its easy to be…Easy and Free…

So.. Secretly I hope that when people look at the titles of my individual posts they can “name that tune” because more often than not they are song lyrics. Anywho, how are you today? I have had a friggin crazy day, complete with paramedics and police officers. Okay Okay it wasn’t that dramatic, but I did have one crazy train ride. I can’t remember if I mentioned it or not, but this semester I’ve decided to be more eco-friendly and start taking TRAX to and from most of my classes (Except drawing.. Because sometimes I need to go get a chai after that class to make me feel better.. Mmm..Chai…) So today when I arrived to the train platform there was a man laying on the floor surrounded by paramedics. It was really crazy and chaotic. Anyways, the train came and I got on.. After riding past a few stops, the train stopped for an unusual amount of time. (like ten or so minutes) Halfway through, the conductor came over the PA system to tell us that they were having a “legal dispute” on car #3 and that we should be departing shortly.. yeah.. Sometimes the train is crazy. However, I think the train is really interesting. So many different people ride it, and most of them are terrified of human eye contact. Its so funny to watch people when its crowded because people avoid eye contact at all costs. People are weird. Then again, I’m the one who gets hit by railroad crossing arms (don’t ask.) Hmmm what else is going on… Oooh today in my drawing class I totally botched a drawing (surprise surprise) Our latest assignment is to draw a portrait of somebody in our class, which makes things EVEN worse, it’s like not only do I have to worry about it looking good, but now I have to worry that my partner thinks I think they look like what I drew. (does that even make sense?) Oh well, luckily I’m friends with my partner.. But still.. Derek if you read this, I’m sorry. Well kiddos, Its getting late and I still have some hw.. But have a good’un!

Auf Achse

Okay Okay I don’t hate the world, or art, or boys for that matter. Lets just say that day was particularly crappy and I was in a REALLY bad mood and thought the internet world should know it. SO If perchance you think you are the below mentioned, you’re not… Yeah.. Sorry about that I don’t hate you. ANYWAYS things here in the land of Mallory aren’t too shabby. I’ve been pretty caught up in my studies as of late so not much socially has really been going on. I’ve been spending a lot of time on the internet and I have to say it’s been pretty fun. I’ve mostly been chatting with my buddies or reading various blogs. Speaking of Blogs, I dunno if I’ve ever mentioned this before, but you should really check out the Franz Ferdinand Blog. Particularly the entries from Alex Kapranos (my new celebrity crush. TAKE THAT ZACH BRAFF I CAN MOVE ON TOO!) Franz Ferdinand (or as I like to say, Franzy) are going on tour with another great band Deathcab for Cutie Unfortunately they aren’t stopping in the great state of Utah, they are however stopping in Reno and My little brother and I are totally driving out there to see the show. I’m so stoked! Speaking of being stoked, My good buddy Scott (I tried to create a link, but evidently blogger.com hates myspace) has returned from the land of New York. (He was serving an LDS Mission)(I’m using a lot of parantheses) Anyways I think we are hanging out this weekend, I’m hoping we go shin breaking. That’d be good times foshizzle. I just hope it doesn’t cost anything, EVERYTHING costs money when I hang out with him. Anyways kiddies I’d better get back to my homework.. Have a good’un!
