silly Alice

I've always had it in my mind that oneday soon something wonderful will happen and everything will be okay. I shall be on talk shows when i'm old talking about my terrible high school life and that time tripped up the stairs and skidded alongside the lockers. My friend Austin once told me, he was going to make a comic strip of this even for the pretend newspapers that we were making in grade seven. I still cannot remember if he did or not. But i feel like it was an important thing to discuss with the host of the show. I really hoped it would be Micheal Parkinson, but i feel he would not be around. Even Stephan fry would be amazing! we could discuss our confusion over everyday things and how we both love to spend alot of money on useless things, but at the end of the day we both just want to hide out and be comfortable. I am getting the stage where the thing has not happened yet, and it must hurry as i constantly feel like i am running out of patience and energy waiting for it to happen. Perhaps i shall event something! or become a hero of somesort. I've had so many ideas of great career changes this year that i don't want to start one just incase i change my mind again. Heres a few, nurse, comedian, vegan chef, kindergarten teacher, nanny, stripper ( we've all thought of it), so there a small list of the main ones, but i still would like to illustrate childrens books, its just a matter of actually writing and drawing them, instead of staring at my ceiling thinking about sleep.

Shoes

I've recently been coming more and more frustrated with the fact that i cannot find any shoes that i like aswel as feel comfortable enough to wear. I don't like to wear leather as i am vegan so that cuts out a huge range of shoes, i also want black ones, and i also like them without heels. So this already makes it very difficult. This often ends in me buying the same shoes again, i've done this many a time including primary school with a pair of runners i got in great one. I remember my mum baught me a new pair before these ones, that i thought i liked, but i wasn't completely sure about. I figured i'd just get used to them anyway. But the next school weel i had a doctors appointment so i was late for school and it was sport that day so i wore the shoes for the first time. As soon as i arrived and walked towards the class room in these shoes i began to feel very self conciouse and anxiouse, i felt like a giant and my shoes like platform boots. I then proceeded to cry and i made my mum take me home and get changed.

This makes me think i'm a little mad and i never thought i was this fussy . But over the last few weeks i've desperately wanted some new lace up boots. I was jsut going to buy the same ones again but they are no longer made. So i figured this was a great chance for a change, and maybe this would be good for me. But i have ended up spending lots of money on shoes that i buy that i think i like but i never wear, or i do wear but chance throughout the day.
I decided i should try another depserate atempt today as on my way to work today the entire sole of my shoe came out. This was it i was going to make a real effort. But i ended up coming home early and atmepting to sew up the heel of my shoes and planning to buy new lace's instead.


Oh i also forgot to mention my many atempts to cut off heels from shoes both succesfull and disastrusly. Mostly disastrously though.

More drawings and feeling sick

Hey there, all week i've been really sick and was bed ridden for three days. My wonderful housemate took care of me and braught me food and tea even when i was half asleep and couldnt manage to say much, but mumble and go back to sleep. Whenever i get sick i tend to get a bit down as i am bored and want to do stuff but i just feel way too rotten to. I ended up watching an awful lot of Degrassie and becoming very aware again of teenage anxst. I ended up having all these crazy fever dreams about being back in high school and being miserable and scared all the time. This stent of being sick has made me apreciate feeling better the majority of the time! and actually being able to stomache coffee and leaving the house without feeling faint and seeing double whilst i walk.


I also finally put up some more drawings that i did awhile ago! i hope you like.

so many stories

I've been rather under the wether of late as i have said before. This has led me to think an awful lot and wonder about whilst lying in my bed and listening to the Decemberists and watching endless youtube videos and reading childrens stories. It made me decide that i'm not satisfied with the world around me, and i don't think i ever really have been. Sure i am surrounded by lovely people but i want a more mystical world full of fairies and elves and adventures with dragons and beasts. I often think the life of a hobbit would be the best kind of life!
So if you are with me, i think we should run away and start our own land where we live in small houses made of wood we've found lying around and all the animals wear vests and scalves in the winter to keep warm, and sun hats in the summer.

Autumn

Hey there, i've been thinking about it of late and i wish to travel to a country far far away and hide for awhile there. I shall draw everyday and bake everyday. I've had a little holiday these past few weeks, i haven't been working so much so i've managed to do some drawing oh and i actually got to bake some rather yummy vegan muffins the other day! Things will get very busy soon though and so i shall get to it and show you what i've been up to.
