A Late Valentine

I mostly think of Edgar Allan Poe as a morbid writer, but I rediscovered some of his poetry. This is my favorite:

To F____S S. O_____D

Thou wouldst be loved---then let thy heart
From it's present pathway part not!

Being every thing which now thou art,

Be nothing which thou art not.

So with the world thy gentle ways,

Thy grace, thy more than beauty,

Shall be an endless theme of praise

And love---a simple duty.

-Edgar Allan Poe.

I took a picture of these pretty flowers that fell off of their stems.

This is the ceiling of the Morrocan restaurant I went to for Emma's bachelorette party. There were crazy cool lights.

This is me being sad and lonely on Valentine's day. So emo.

This is me being weird, which is normal.

I like this picture because I feel like it really looks like me. It has some of my favorite colors: mustards and olive greens and a pop of purple.






Reaquainting with old friends is seriously amazing. I love seeing what people are up to. It's the ultimate before and after. It's uplifting to realize that the afters almost always seem better than the befores. If the trend stays true, my life should be on the upward slope, and I should expect great things from myself and others. In this picture Chris and Tracy pose for my camera. Don't they look like genuinely happy people?! I'm excited to hang out with them some more.

I like this picture because there is a prop in it. Holding a guitar will automatically make one look ten times as cool. Demetri went from slightly sissy to downright spiffy in seconds flat. Tracy looks like she's posing for Covergirl.

Demetri has a seriously irritated look on his face. (By the way, this is a shout out. "Demetri, you are so cool! I love the blog!") I'm wondering what is irritating him so much. Is it the creepy guy that kept trying to hug Sundeep? Is it me forcing him to hold a pose when he's trying to call someone? Is life just too much? Maybe he just has a stomach ache.

Look at that smile, more sparkle than a Miss America contest.

Tracy, Sundeep and Melissa have posing down pat.

These pictures were all taken at Pine Cove on Saterday night. (except the first one, which was at Tracy's house). It was fun, we sang some karaoke, threw popcorn at eachother, laughed at the weird people, got creeped out by the creepy people, smiled and took pictures of eachother to fill in the lags.

I feel like this would be a good time to provide links to my various other pages.
