RIP
Zane Gross
It is with deep sadness that we announce the death of Zane David James Gross. Zane was found dead this morning with immediate circumstances suggesting a possible heroin overdose. Results from a toxicology study will take approximately 6 weeks to confirm the actual cause of death. Zane was originally from Southern Oregon and came to Portland almost 2 years ago. He was screened for services and has engaged with various Homeless Youth Continuum services since his arrival. Recently Zane successfully completed drug treatment and was hoping to make significant changes in his life. His death is extremely painful for all of us who had the pleasure of experiencing his gregarious and gentle nature and is somehow even more stinging as it arrives on the heels of the recent Vulnerability Index survey. Zane's death is another cruel reminder of just how fragile the lives of young people living on the streets really are. Memorial services will be announced soon. Rest in peace, Zane.

"I'm a little confused.
If you grow up in Hawaii, raised by your grandparents, you're 'exotic,

If you grow up in Alaska eating moose burgers, you're a quintessential American story.
If your name is Barack you're a radical, unpatriotic Muslim.
Name your kids Willow, Trig and Track, you're a maverick.

If your total resume is: local weather girl, 4 years on the city council and
6 years as the mayor of a town with less than 7,000 people, 20 months as the
governor of a state with only 650,000 people, then you're qualified to
become the country's second highest ranking executive (and according to the
actuarial tables, a > 30% chance of succeeding the president during your
first term).
If you have been married to the same woman for 19 years while raising 2
beautiful daughters, all within Protestant churches, you're not a real

If you cheated on your first wife with a rich heiress, and left your
disfigured wife and married the heiress the next month, you're a Christian.
If you teach responsible, age appropriate sex education, including the
proper use of birth control, you are eroding the fiber of society.
If, while governor, you staunchly advocate abstinence only, with no other
option in sex education in your state's school system while your un-wed teen
daughter ends up pregnant, you're very responsible.
If your wife is a Harvard graduate lawyer who gave up a position in a
prestigious law firm to work for the betterment of her inner city community,
then gave that up to raise a family, your family's values don't represent
America's.
If you're husband is nicknamed 'First Dude', with at least one DWI
conviction and no college education, who didn't register to vote until age
25 and once was a member of a group that advocated the secession of Alaska
from the USA, your family is extremely admirable.

it is slightly terrifying how close to reality this song is for me.
it is slightly terrifying how close to reality this song is for me.
fucking dead-on.
Running in and out of breath
Stained skin and teeth too red
Incessant slamming in the tongue
God forbid I spend one night alone
Out to the parking lot
Stumbling towards my apartment
Pressed you close against the screen door,
Close enough to feel underneath your clothes
You overcompensate for your own inexperience
Don't underestimate, oh, my fear of being caught
So many words, so many words
So many you can't believe
So many words, so many words
So many stuck at sea
On the second story of your suburban home
Mom's asleep just two doors down
Funny how when stuck at sea
Things are never the way they seem
Clouds take the shape of gloves
Reaching over the flames at dusk
Missing clips in your consciousness
Just act as if I don't exist
You overcompensate for your own inexperience
Don't underestimate, oh, my fear of getting caught
So many words, so many words
So many you can't believe
So many words, so many words
So many stuck at sea
Felt the repition of my way
The lack of apprehension that one day
So many words, so many words
So many you can't believe
So many words, so many words
So many stuck at sea
I'll keep burning my fingers
In attempt to rekindle the flame
The match is too flimsy
And the wind just annuls her name
So I pulled out the garments that will press between us
On the dreamless evening you refer to in disgust
So many words, so many words
So many you can't believe
So many words, so many words
So many stuck at sea
(Felt the repition of my way
The lack of apprehension that one day)
So many words, so many words
So many you can't believe
So many words, so many words
So many stuck at sea
So many words, so many words
So many you can't believe
So many words, so many words
So many stuck at sea
story of my life, no kidding.

rampant douchebaggery
so about a week ago my friend and i (high off our asses) typed some crazy bullshit into google translator, posted it all over myspace in german, then translated it back into english.
anyway, i just re-read it and it is possibly the most hilarious thing i've ever read:
"Hello my firm friends, I would like your farts swallow because I love you so. They mean so much to me, I would bake biscuits, you best. praise the Lord! it is time for celebration! Use correct spelling, grammar and punctuation always in your life. my swing with your fists high fives. and six and sevens. They give me cheek, I give you Ass"
AAAAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAH
but then i laughed for like an hour when i read this freshman year.

slow it down
music: Cold War Kids - Tell Me in the Morning
so here is my problem:
i habitually pick a random guy (usually a celebrity) who i think is marginally attractive and project onto them everything i want them to be until it doesn't matter that they're kind of a jerk and not that attractive because i'm so focused on what i imagine them to be like that i'm blind to reality.
it's ridiculous and immature and i hate it, but i'm sure a billion other teenage girls have this same problem.
but anyway.
i had a dream last night that my uncle died and i woke up crying.
it was awful!
i get upset just thinking about it.
at the same time, though, i love that a dream can affect you so strongly like that.
the right dream can just mess you up for the entire day, which can be a good or bad thing.
it's so amazing that your subconscious can have such a huge influence on your emotions.

saturday: my sister's 5th birthday party. park, cake, pin the tail on the pony, stick-pony races, pinata, and someone pooped in the fountain.
sunday: A and i took the max downtown to the Obama rally at waterfront park. holy fuck. the line wrapped around about 58340589043890583490 blocks all the way from waterfront to a few blocks past the PSU campus. we got off the train at around 9:45 at saturday market and walked around there for awhile and visited our friend E, who has a booth there. then we went to get in line to get in and - SURPRISE! - ended up having to walk all the way to PSU. we were supposed to meet Joel there but we never saw him. we did see Jake, though, on the way to the end of the line, but that douche bag wouldn't let us stand in line with him.
it was good, though. i think i saw obama, even though we were about a million miles from the stage, and i got a sunburn, which was cool.

might be a quarter life crisis...
this woman just turned 50, now she's on the cover of her album (where she sings with justin timberlake) in a leather one-piece with a wrestling championship belt with HARD CANDY (so subtle!) plastered across her rack.
this is by far the saddest (and most obvious) cry for attention i've ever seen.
"i'll show those kids i'm still young and hip and sexy! i'll find someone else young and hip and sexy and half my age and make everyone think we're BFF and that will make me valuable to society again! and then i'll get my face and boobs done and have lots of lipo and spread my legs in a leather bathing suit and PLAY DANCE MUSIC! YEAH!"
no.
hon, you're so old. think about your poor daughter. all this time you've spent getting face lifts and exposing your junk could have been spent teaching your daughter how not to be the next britney or paris.
although the fact that she is 12 and has her own stylist might suggest that you're not too interested in preventing that kind of future for her.

it's fucking freezing up in hurr!
i've decided that PAC (people & the community) is my least favorite class.
the teacher acts like he's really cool and relates to us, and he talks like he's our age.
but he is such a fucking baby!
my friend e-mailed me on the school computer "GET OUT MY FACE HO" in giant letters and the teacher saw it and SPAZZED.
i have said every dirty word you can think of within earshot of this guy, and yet he gets all pissed off at the word HO.
so why is it that he doesn't have a problem when i say fuck or cunt or asshole or dick or shit or when i talk about getting blazed over the weekend, but when i say HO (which you can say on basic cable without getting bleeped out) he acts like a little bitch?
also. he made us watch THE SECRET. when i told him i thought it was pretty much the stupidest thing ever he FREAKED THE FUCK OUT. please. it's a self-help video about the magical powers of positive thinking. maybe if we were a bunch of fat, desperate middle-aged divorcees looking to get laid, it would be interesting. but it's still ridiculous and fake. and this is a high school. i have no problem with teaching us to be positive and whatnot, but this is completely inappropriate for the classroom. it's like teaching creationism to biology classes. and who decided it was a good idea to teach kids that everything you want will just be handed to you if you just think positive?
aren't we supposed to be learning skills for life? because the kids who believe this are going to be fucked when they get out in the real world thinking that they can just imagine everything they want and it will magically appear.
your brain doesn't emit any magnetic waves.
there is no secret. there's a lot of video editing and a lot of bullshit. it's the da vinci code meets national treasure; fast paced and exciting so the fact that it's completely fake is blurred. and the people testifying look official and talk like this is the most obvious thing in the world so you won't notice that there are no facts or logic to back up any of it.
anyway.
fuck PAC and fuck the secret.

Dear Dustin,
I know we weren't really friends, but the fact that someone around me could be as desperate and lonely as you must have been breaks my heart. I'll never know why this happened or what you were feeling at the time, but I can't help thinking that if you saw how much people care about you, and what an impact you've had on everyone here, things might have turned out differently. You're in our thoughts, and I mean that.
Love always.
Love always.

music: The Doobie Brothers - South City Midnight Lady
i think i've lost my sense of smell.
been sick since last friday with some crazy virus that started out like the flu and ended with a really awful cough and a stuffed up nose that aren't quite gone yet.
my nose is unplugged, but i can't smell anything.
i've been saving up all the perfume samples i find in magazines hoping it'll come back. so far i have Pucci Vivara, Chloe, Burberry Beat and Tommy Hilfiger Dreaming.
but anyway.
tomorrow i need to buy some top coat nail polish and a new sally hansen lip inflation extreme. i had to throw out my old one because it got sand in it on a trip to the beach last summer.
i also need to put my extensions back in.
i took them out last weekend because they were getting kind of saggy and gross, and they were so difficult to get out that i decided to just keep them out. but i really miss my long, beautiful hair! short hair just doesn't do it for me.
i was watching A Knight's Tale earlier today, but it just freaks me out watching movies with dead actors in them. like breakfast at tiffany's. it's one of the most amazing movies ever, but seeing george peppard walking around and talking is WEIRD AS BALLS, since he died like 10 years ago.

Ooh, my soul.
music: Wolf Parade - I'll Believe In Anything
we had a guest speaker at school today that pretty much changed my life.
i was already considering joining the peace corps, but this lady totally convinced me.
she was a volunteer in Jordan, then when they evacuated, she transferred to Armenia.
it sounds completely amazing.
i'm considering Jamaica or somewhere in the Caribbean.
i really want to go to Chile or Argentina, but those are inactive.
so is Cuba.
i made out my whole plan: i'mma go a 4-year school (like seattle pacific maybe?), and get a degree in whatever, then join the peace corps in the education field, and then come back and maybe be a teacher.
i always kind of had it in the back of my head that i'd end up being a teacher.
english, probably.
language arts, creative writing, literature, something like that.
wowowowowow i'm excited.

haha, wang.
music: Elefant - Make Up
holy balls, y'all.
alexander wang + dick page + guido = a fucking heart attack on my part!
alexander wang is basically brilliant, and he's only 23, which makes him even more brilliant.
dick page might as well be jesus h. christ himself when you're talking about beauty.
and guido.
i idolize guido.
i know it sounds superficial.
but the man is a genius.
and he used bumble & bumble!
swoon.
here are some good details about the runway look,
and here are some pretty good pictures, although i don't see dick or guido in any of them.
