almonds.

tonight i saw a play about melancholy.
it was strange, but there was a line that caught me.

"we seem as as far apart as the space between stars."

they say that melancholy tastes of bitter almonds.

hello, again.

wow.
i have been neglecting this like nothing else.
i suppose i should make a conscious effort to write at least once a day. which is a conscious effort i make approx. every week. oh well.

first order of business: i got a new camera!!!!
it's a canon rebel xt, and i love it! it's all shiny with a zoom lens and strap and leather bag.
though it does come with some fears. this photography class is my favorite one, and while the teacher scares me to death, i adore her and respect her as a professor. but for our previous assignments, when they all came out blurry or full of noise or not sharp enough, i blamed my camera. but now, i have a good one--was the problem really my camera, or am i a terrible photographer? i look at other peoples' pictures and feel incredibly inadequate. i have studied all of the technical stuff and got an A- on my midterm, something i'm proud of. but will it be enough?

i spent the day listening to so much music.
currently addicted to last.fm. username is taylorrness, if anyone wants to add me on there.

song i can't get enough of: polaris - jimmy eat world.

good night.
