I really like to make curry, it's super easy to make and though it isn't the healthiest it's a lot healthier than other foods people eat. Here it is: you will need a frying pan/wok some cooking oil curry masala ginger galangal (Thai ginger) 4-6 green onions some squash/zucchini carrots mushrooms tofu, tempeh or meat substitute or what ever veggies you like slice green onions and place into oiled pan cook until close to being browned add sliced squash, carrots, mushrooms and meat substitute let cook until soft add about a tablespoon of diced galangal and ginger stir in 2 tsp of garam masala and 1/2 cup water let water boil and thicken into sauce ready to serve! can be served with/without rice I usually like to add some premade Thai curry sauce to make it spicier (I am a spice fiend!)

maybe not best picture, but I definitely wanted In Bruges to win best original screenplay. That movie rocked, the fact that it only got one nomination and won it is a sign the academy has lost it. |

"a fear of being overheard" no capitalization it comes from a line in the Feist song "Secret Heart", which, if my life (or my family's life) were a movie, it would be the song during the credits. |

I returned to my blog and unexpectedly found a letter to myself. It remains true for me. I don't want to forget it. I don't even think it needs changing for next year. but for old time's sake I'll write another later. here's the old one (but not the original "letter to myself" that will remain a private one) hey, you

So, uh, well I don't live in Tulsa anymore. I guess that sucks right? my name doesn't really fit my place of residence but I guess it's my fault for trying to predict where I would be in another year. I live in Pleasant Hill, CA with my aunt for the time being. I'm kinda liking it here, but it's rough without my friends. I still wish I was at Tulsa taking classes there. I guess I'll never get over that. I really loved TU, and though I had qualms with financial problems and protest some of their actions and expenses, I can't argue that it wasn't a good school. I really did like it there, ridiculously expensive though it may be. (and now I hear they raised tuition) But here it's nice. I go to Diablo Valley College, a quaint junior college with a good art program and nice enough faculty. Next weekend is my birthday, a year older, a year less of my escaping youth.

Print will die down, but probably never completely vanish. I love print media, I'm an artist. Print media used to be about the hard handiwork that went into it. Now it's all rendered digitally and doesn't matter printed or virtual. I don't know if I really care anymore as long as art still remains in the concrete world and not solely virtual.

Yes, it was quite confusing. Not my closest friend but one of my closest friends it lasted for years, even now I can't see me marrying anyone but him. Our relationship is still close and sometimes I wonder if I'll ever meet anyone as good as him. in other news... http://laureltree.tumblr.com best site ever.

the moocher I take all the cash and run I feel bad too i guess being a college student requires patience and a lot of dough on the parents part It's not like I just want to take all their money I love them I just happen to need it and don't have a source of income (at the moment) I love my family very much I'm a peaceful person and very emotional so sometimes I cause a bit of drama (a lot I guess) |

There's nothing quite like staying up till 3 in the morning painting. blaaaaah I want food. I ate gallery opening food and a peanut butter and jelly sandwich for food today. Gotta love skipping meals. =( yeah, I'm really tired, I think I'm going to wipe out now. though studying genetics would be good too.

two things: mouth noises: I hate weird mouth noises that are unintentional, like when people are eating. I know you can control those freaky noises. cleanliness: if things are dirty I get really annoyed and can't focus.

I've become increasingly aware of my own mortality, as is reflected in my recent dreams. I'm sure it has something to do with the recent death of a few young people I was acquainted with. Mortality is hard to face and the knowledge of the ability of you or your loved ones to go at any minute is a really depressing topic, but sometimes it needs to be addressed. I still feel like dreams are either: a) a reflection of our own conscious world or b) a separate world altogether in which we exist as a similar being with different circumstances.

I really miss my dog. I kinda want to go home just so I can see her. =( I was watching funny videos on youtube last night and came upon this gem: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CFHRsrQ3 or this one: http://jp.youtube.com/watch?v=UG0guVq_0 and you really need to watch all of the human tetris ones because they're very funny. I want to play this game! and then I found cute puppy videos, and cute corgis... AND I MISS MY TIPPY! |

I just picked up some food and made stuff out of it. I am a self-taught amateur cook. My dad and mom taught me a few things, but recipe-wise I'm all original baby. haha

So, like always, though I don't always seem to notice it, life is good, dare I say amazing. I can think of one complaint however: my computer. The darling thing, which I really depend on, decided to have its internal CPU fan break down on me and not proceed to start up anymore, which means I am now in a writing lab screwing around on the computer before being forced to trek across the barren snowy earth to my first class. Can you tell I hate this weather? Check out my blog for my latest letter to our stupid weather. I hate technology

I want it. I want it so bad. SHE'S SO .... HEAVYYYYYYYYYY!!!! I hate my current coffee maker. 12 cups may be a nice number (especially for 7 dollars) but it makes 12 cups of stuff I'll never drink. Plus it's HUGE. I want to make my own lattés so I don't have to spend lots of money at Starbucks. =/ I wish I had more coffee. Or maybe some milk to put in my coffee. Some café au lait would be amazing right now. My coffee may be "Vanilla Biscotti" but it's just a crappy cup o' joe. =/
