I was green once…
A beautiful, shining colour as vibrant as the feathers of a tropical bird.
The tree was my skeleton, I a base plumage.
Flowers were
A gemlike adornment.
I watched myself grow alongside the hundreds of others like me during the
October
Heat
Marvelling at the world, which seemed to
Pass
Me
By.
Things moved, things happened.
I grew.
After I had done so for the summer-lit seasons, things began to change.
Others like me began to change.
Their lime bodies they had loved
So well
Began to leak with unknown colours, as though the sun itself had bleached them with
The tones of sunset. It began as a

Kinetic Baby
Oh Emily,
Won't you do that dance
You used to, now?
You would twirl
Arms above your head
As you graced the stage
With your being.
A skirt would twist
And writhe
About your form.
You were my kinetic baby.
Making dance a science,
Your body was the formula,
Movements an experiment
Pivot and a passé
A chemical reaction.
Feet would glide across the
Polished floor.
Your sashe
Just the
Aftermath
Oh Emily,
Won't you play that tune
You used to, now?
Your body would move
As you pushed and pulled
At the strings of your
Old piano.
Arms would arch and fall
Fingers brushed a
Necessary key.
You were my music

I dance in clown shoes.
You compose your conversations.
Fitfully gesturing with whatever you hold,
ending arguments with a flourish.
Make a point, now whirl, quickly.
Make it impossible to counter with your unpunctuation.
You duck and weave, spin, sidestep, pirouette:
One, two, one, two, faster, harder, stronger.
You leave me confused and two steps back,
just far enough behind to appear lost and unsure.
And if I catch up, if I make a point,
you spin again, a trail of words falling like pixie dust
as you make your escape.
And as you storm out, you slam the period behind you,
Ending your sentence with a door.
And I must follow you, my thuds down the sta

I'm serious. I do. I don't have very many friends. I just have a lot of acquantinces, and I also have a few *pretend friends. For example, my only real friends are Batman and Ex-Bf. Oh, and there's also Strawberry-Blonde girl, and Sister-To-Tall-Boy, but they go to a different school, so I hardly ever see them.
*People like 'other friend' (see last journal) who I actually find almost unbearably annoying but am nice to anyway, because that's just how nice/awesome I am.
*Okay, I lied. I'm not really even that nice to her any more. Why does she still hang out with us? We're NEVER nice to her! Our whole lives pretty much consist of mocking her.
Yo, yo, what is up my homies in the hood you all? C's up, B's sideways and F's in some sort of vertical manner, if you get my shit yo.
CONGRATULATIONS! YOU, MY GOOD FRIEND, ARE IN FOR A FUN DAY. YOU HAPPEN TO HAVE STUMBLED ACROSS THIS SPELNDID RECOUNT OF THE MOST EXCITING PART OF MY DAY. IT MAY BE LONG. IT MAY BE FULL OF NONSENSICLE GIBBERISH AND MERCILESS MOCKING. BUT MY GOD, IT IS ALSO FULL OF STUFF-TYPED-THINGS TO NOURISH THE SQUISHY FLUBBER IN YOUR SKULL.

I spent 3 years in some cold damp dirty dark Dunedin flat doing preclinical Medicine, and now am glad to be back to Christchurch. Aah the geographic flatness.
Believe it or not, I've never been to Wellington. I hope it's not as windy and hilly as they say.
Haha. Wow, medicine stuff eh? Eep. That must have been hard. o.o;; My brother is in Dunedin! xD He's at teachers college though. I've been to Christchurch, but I don't remember it much. I think it was back in 1999 or something. Sometime near the new millenium anyway. But whatever.
=0 I don't believe it! Wait, yes I do. Well, Wellington doesn't seem that windy to me. But I grew up here, so maybe I'm just used to it. Some days can get quite cold and windy though. And it is kind of hilly. I don't really live in proper wellington, I'm about 15 minutes out of it. But I live on a hill. In a valley! YAY! xD
Is Christchurch...not windy? ; < -- Lame question.
