Last

Let me start my last entry by saying owls. Apples and owls. Yep. Allow me to elaborate: In Texas, when we cleaned that older woman's apartment, there were more owl whatnots than the average person could fathom. Then, a few doors down, in Savannah's grandma's apartment, there was an owl calendar and figurine. In New Orleans, we saw owl jewelry and decorations and one day I was walking to meet Savannah and we both had something to show eachother which we'd found in the few hours we had spent apart: we each had a picture of an owl! There were seven owls in the bedroom we stayed in in New York, and more in the living room and on the balcony. We got to michigan and saw one or two at Meredith's in movies and on t.v. Then, we got to Craig's, on his firont portch the first thing we was as we pulled up was a broom made to look like a... yes. We got inside and what was on the stereo? Yeah. A band called Owl City. Owl effing City!
Now, apples. All we ate in Vegas were apples, we ate jam made from "cactus apples" in Texas, we woke up in the New Orleans mornings to Fiona Apple, then we drove to the "Big Apple" where we went dumpster diving and made off with a backpack full of apples. We traveled to Ann Arbor where we found two perfect apples on the ground, one for each of us, and ate apple pie as we listened to Owl City. I have no statement to make about this, I'm just observing.
On a far more pertinent note, like Lynzie, I have comprised a list of lessons learned:
1. Just like my cousin said, you should trust most people.
2. The harder I try to look good, the less pretty I feel; I need to just feel beautiful the way I roll out of bed.
3. No matter how hard you try, you will lose all your bobby pins. All of them.
4. Make sure the people you have arranged to stay with know you are coming.
5. Karma is effective.
6. Being prepared for anythign is good, but carrying all of that preparedness can be heavy; mabye there's nothing wrong with picking a few things up along the way as the necessity arises.
7. You can easily steal most anything, but don't.
8. Impulsive tattoos are always a good idea.
9. Clean your kitchen EVERY day.
10. Self discovery is never ending.
11. I can have anything.
I will be famous in three months. Yep. I won't last in Oregon. I learned that I can have what I want and what I want is to live off my music and New Orleans. And so I will have this and if I'm not practicing, PLEASE do me a favor and guilt me 'til I cry or practice or both. I love EVERONE!
