DAS SPIEL

I need to stop buying photography books.

Ay Ansel Adams, I'ma let you photograph in black and white but Irving Penn was the best black and white photographer evarrr yo.


Btw Yinka Shonibare is blowing my fucking mind with 'A Masked Ball'.
Someone had better get their ass to the Dallas Museum with me to go see that shit.
The costumes are electrifying.
LOLWUT GUH U BE LOOKIN ANDROGYNOUS

K.
There's been too much 4chan, nintendo, manga, easymac, gay clubbing, and talking politics since I've been in college. That about sums it up for me.

MERN'S FINAL DECLARATION OF EDUMACATION:
Bachelors of Science in News-Editorial Writing with Magazine Emphasis
Minor in Art History
Minor in Political Science

Someone tried to tell me Ronald Reagan was badass today. That same person almost got run over by a car a few weeks ago and then stopped believing in God.

Don't be stingy with your bullets, always double tap



I feel like my life is spiraling out of control and I have absolutely no grasp on it.
I try to control small things like my weight and studying but it's almost like a waste of time.
I'm not a laidback person. This is killing me.
I crave structure.
Every aforementioned sentence in this entry began with "I".


Now this:

"I" am such a worthless piece of shit.


Do people have a stronger emotional response when reading literature or when seeing visual art?

THE FORMER:
I have never been more captivated by a painting before in my life.
I used to hate art because I can't draw.
Then I saw this.
I saw this and I wanted to create things.
I saw this and it moved me to productivity.
I saw this and I wanted to BE it.
It was perfection. Harmony.
Yes. 'Composition with Red, Blue, and Yellow' is one of my favorite works.

After reading the LATTER, I could not sleep. My mind had been jumpstarted.
This resulted into a moderate addiction to sleeping pills, depression, and some momentary atheism.
It still boggles my mind even today and I realize how weak and mediocre my mind is in that I still cannot fully grasp just how amazing this book is.



I wear a lot of gray. And I fear that I may have developed a personal style.
