strasfalgur
There are lots of unfortunate things going on in the world right now aren't there? It really, really sucks. I have to donate something to the tsunami relief effort soon, and I just found out about another horrible event coming up that I'd really like to help prevent. It's the construction of a dam in Iceland, actually, for some big corporation profit bullshit project. This is a link to some pictures of the land that's going to be destroyed: http://www.inca.is/show/pages/thumbs.html

Boo.

Well, sigur ros is putting out a new album soon, as is Tori, so that's something to look forward to anyway. I must go to iceland and learn icelandic because both are beautiful and I have never heard bad music from iceland.

A peculiar combination of string music and cymbals made me realize that in terms of the way I think of and treat nature I am an adult. I remember when I used to just go and commune sort-of... just sit as a kid and put my fingers in a stream and just watch the water and hear the leaves move in the wind, it was probably the most spiritual I've ever been in my life. When I was a kid. It was just like I was always ... listening or something.

I look forward to quiet times and days spent in the forest again.
High school is over for me in three weeks.
3!
I am ecstatic and eagerly awaiting my laptop to be fixed so that I can start blogging again.
