12:59 am - who dat is?
i'm drifting off listening to Alice Coltrane. Helped out the Bookshelves and Stereo group with their headshot, groupshot and body shots. I'm fixing to get a real copy of the latest Sigur Rus album just because I can. Wouldn't it be nice to fly off to iceland and see sigur rus?

- my mothers battery died, so I went to jump her car, but then realized that I have no jumper cables. We walked across the street to Sears got some cables came back jumped the car and made our way to the
volkswagon dealership. I got to the dealership, wondered where my mother was, got a call went to jump my mothers car again. jumped the car, and finally made it to the dealership.

- I got 20 dollars in my pocket to eat dinner, a nice thanks for helping with all of this jumping the car stuff...

- everyone is busy or working, I should eat something nice, Oh! dennis miller is going to be on tonight THE RAW FEED. Man that guy is the King of Reference!

tommorow the girl from the Amelie movie, her new movie with Cynthia of the Kite flying society. nice... everyone enjoy!

9:44 am - worker bee's. and bee's full of lazy.
tuesday.

man, i was still ill and dizzy. i rested and rested and took medication, and then got tired of being tired. went to go see cursive,
minus the bear, and engine down. They were all very good but nothing that i would purchase for some reason. I hate all the waiting around
in shows, especially when you go with only yourself. still the bands
were solid, the concert good. couldn't hang out with kefryn it was
too late, had to get home get rest.

wednesday.

woke up early to finish doing things for work. left for work. meeting lasted two hours. i need to get outta that place its always so crazy.
got a call from stacy around 4ish... asking what i had called her about (see tuesday entry on cursive) we made plans to hang out at starbucks at 5:30, it was cool, i don't know what we are doing, i like her but i feel i don't like her enough, i feel like i'm not passionate
about things anymore, or the things i am passionate about aren't within my reach as if they are getting farther and farther, and i need to pull them closer. she wore a frank kafka t-shirt, yes frank. it was wonderful. cleaned my room, there is stuff everywhere i can't hold another thing without fear that everything will explode.

thursday.

tutored my one student, Stefan. I need more students to get out of my current job. I hate research I hate stress. the job just blows-up everyday and everyday. It is a series of lulls and then followed by the cram at the end. We are always late! hahaha and yet we know we are late! it has become normal. I wish i had several students, i need to become a prof. I will become a prof. I'm tired of this no money...
I got started early in photo class, and did a bunch of prints. But they were coming fast, now i need film. Jessica and I hung out the whole afternoon it was cool, we drop andrea and looked for bass strings and ended up at long john silvers and playing the new Zelda at her house. It's a really relaxing game, lots of islands, and ships, and looking for treasure in red circles, we just talked the whole night, and talked about **light*light** and what we are going to do
with that, and how we should cover the alan parson's project. its good to know good people, i hope we spend hours playing zelda, but i want to actually play instead of watch next time...

good-night (sister is coming down, whoo-hoo!)

- after friday's photo death. i went back saturday and did
8 prints. So I'm back on top again... hell yeah!!!

- congrats to james, daughter is 1 year old as of saturday.

- kefryn's party resulted in a horrible drunkeness, passing out in the woods as well as my friend ken who was hanging out in the bathroom, at least he didn't get dirty like i did. Apparently ken and I were only the first wave of shit
faced kids. Later on... everyone was messed up. It was so
wonderful kefryn got out all of the comp's I made for her
and played them... it was wonderful. awww...

- Sunday woke up at Kefryn's house ken and i got out of their we were so drunk. it was horrible.. we slept at my house for a little bit woke up and made our way to Vienna.
had lots of water... the day was gone. it got cold. had pizza with the brother. and watch 6 ft under (the best show
on tv right now.)

- Monday I got sick. I think I was actually ill on sunday to
but maybe i was so drunk that i thought it was the alcohol.
Went to work began to feel more nauseau... went home went to sleep took lots of cold drugs... woke up felt better. ate
sush(i) with my mom and my brother.

//// Well its true that we love one another, I love Jack White like a little brother!!! ///////
XOXO everyone,
Nathan.

here are a list of things that happened from 3/10 to 3/18.

3/10 Worked in the morning, drove to boca, drove back from

hung out with Sean and Rachel at nite. Went to the Arch,
sat around and listened to records until everyone got tired
of listening to them.

3/11 Sister arrived sometime after sean left. Like 3 a.m.
Woke up, went with my brother to surf, surfed got really
sunburned, caught one wave - forgot to stand, dammit!!
went to class, learned about night shooting. Went with
sister to Tate's got the Summer Blonde book by Adrian Tomine, Sam got books too. We were going to do 10 dollar
tuesday but then we got tired, my excuse is the sun and
surf i got earlier in the day.

3/12 Working it all the live long day, Had dinner with Matthew, Oh man! and janus, Thank god. then went to the Vienna Coffee House hung out with Cynthia and her friend in ft. lauderdale beach, she talked of nature, and smoked us out
on the life guard stand. Ran into raf's ex Tiki, she is
working at the pizza shop now-a-days. She seems good. Long
nite, ate at waffle house, got home at 4 in the morning.

3/13! went to class did a few shots I emphasize the fewness of it. Hung out with sam later at Sarah's with her man Umali, then went to get Andrea to go night shooting, things got all messy, couldn't shoot, no tripod, spent a long night in the car listening to the Zero 7 Up all nite.

3/14 Woke up really late, helped sam pick out glasses for
reading they looked awesome! Hung out with Jessica and Simani (i think, i know i got that wrong) and went with them to the rennaisance festival, took 2 roles of film, it
was really fun everyone was laid back, and everyone was
having a good time, became very tired from the festival went to bed really early i think.

3/15 first i was really hungry, then i asked pat if he
wanted to eat something, he said yes, we dropped off some
books, then we wanted to go to the swap shop, he called marshall and off we went, ate some taco's at the bell, then
went to the swap shop, got a tripod for 10 dollars marshall
and pat got porn and cowboy hats. Picked of David V. decided to get a super nintendo just for old times' and the
plan was to drink vodka (iceberg) and play super nes. Went
to the Vienna, drank tea with Pat, Marshall, and David. We picked up Steven from Comp USA, tried to find a super nes
at sawgrass but we had no luck. But pat got some girls #,
and I ran into an ol' friend and got her #, we were going
to drink, but then Mom's came through with the Who wants to go Jai-Alai (i think going to bon-jovi the night before revitalized her) So went with Sam and Mom to Jai-Alai, ryan
called he met us up,played some Jai-Alai then left to meet
up with James at Opa! consumed 6 Heineken's before a friend
of ours started pouring straight up grey goose down my throat, and bam i was fucked up!, then we left went to Pop Life, i was in a frenzied horny/alcohol high and there was nobody to make out with = (, came home at 5 a.m.

3/16 Woke up at 12 ish. Hung with Kefryn ate echiladas, went to Urban Outfitters, and Virgin Megastore, got smoothies. went back to her place. and then went out again,
got About A boy on dvd, it rocked. I was in a good mood. drove home and all was good despite missing Six Feet Under.
sam left.

3/17 Worked til 3. Went to the Photo lab to develop some film, critic is this thursday... slowly running out of time.

3/18 Tutored Stephan at 10, went to visit Charles Schwab,
went to the cd store, went to the other cd store, went to
bcc, studied my GRE book, went to class, did a few shots,
things were not productive, Michelle was there as quiet as

10:18 pm - needles and pins.
And so after all of this pass and go of the last 2 months or
so. we finally decide to go for sushi, but terror strikes
and she has to work at the last moment. I don't blame her,
she was apolgetic it was not her fault and it's not mine
either. But at the last moment everything fell apart. I'm so sick of it! I'm sick of all of these fucked up girls! so I in my clean car, after cleaning an hour earlier, feel this
sunk in, i go for a drink, but it don't feel right the bar is all stupid the people watching the game. I don't feel
like watching any game, I just want something incredibly beautiful that I can't obtain for some reason. Fuck Girls!
next week I'm going to the Copa! Whose coming with Me!

8:21 am - so incredibly stupid i am.
I stabbed myself in the left shoulder today, it was the
stupidest thing I have ever done and perhaps one of the saddest, it felt so strange to pull a small scissors out, but it was not as bad as how i feel, i feel like i'm getting crushed by the weight of the world, as if every decision i am making seems to have such weight that I can barely breathe without thinking of all of the things that seem to flood my mind this evening I'm so out of breathe and so sad and I'm every fuckin' cliche there is... I will
be fine tommorow, I just need to make it throught tonight.

X's and O's - Nathan.

12:01 pm - french ticklers.
- she says that she loves "french ticklers."

Saturday was spent in the photo lab where I have been spent
the last few saturdays. I miss the company of Andrea and
Michelle, especially Andrea just because she is this ball
of energy. I'm becoming an art star, buying big sheets of
paper and getting involved in all of these art projects. I haven't written in so long, its been all about photographs
and different projects. I feel so distracted now-a-days, the
only thing I wish to do is listen to moon pix'sin Marshalls El Camino with my camera and get ready to shoot at the supermarket while he smokes outside...

click click click... I'm shooting you up!

9:09 am - and then she said...
.my time is being absorbed so quickly now-a-days.. i don't find time to read novels, instead i'm snapping
photos and wondering how far i'm getting from my page
work. still yesterday was her, and today is her, and i love that she makes me feel so alive with her energy that
seems POP! and etc!. I'm carrying a yellow paperclip for good luck, a solid day of prints... a solid day of prints
on saturday, and sunday. the echo of your murmur... when
all i can do is play mirah, and wanting to be a pencil drawing in your room.

7:58 am - light light
ΩΩ Light Light ΩΩ

is a new project that will feature live electronic music, and acoustic
melodies by John, Anthony, Jessica and Myself as well as art and photo
graphs presented as a slide show while the band is playing!!!

Our first 7" will feature a song called "You must be an archer" and
the B - side will either be "Albert Ayler" or a version of "Sexy Boy"
recorded live at the Vienna Cafe.

ΩΩ Light Light ΩΩ is based on the sensibilities of what would happen
if you mixed twee-pop melodies with the noisy avant-garde
eastern sensibilities of Kauro Abe.

we should have a website up and running shortly as well as some gigs
be on the lookout! for ΩΩ Light Light ΩΩ

I would also like to give a shout out to Baby Dracula and
A/C Cobra!!! we love you guys!

4:46 am - small change.
I think my work is a enethma, I wish my plans would hurry along,
I just want to be done with so much of so much. I'm tired of being
poor, I wan't a small house with wooden floors that is lined with
books and records, a 500 dollar wine collection, cookbooks and my
art nouveau posters that need to be framed. My chess set placed
on a table, my coffee table books, large vases lined with flowers,
my soft blue bowles. My pot in plastic bags. Dinner parties once a week with close friends, and my sister, flying kites on tuesday afternoons, taking so many photographs that I become
that snap and that tug and that pull of the camera. In chess sometimes
you have to think where do I want to be on this board, and then go
there, Life is the same, I want to be on that square not this one.

3:07 pm - photos and several flowers of different variety
Still going through the budget, and personal finance books. I feel like
there are 3 girls in the photo class who I could go out with. I dunno I
feel things are coming around. I'm trying to hook-it up with Susan this friday
and saturday at Opa! and Poplife! Everyone was thinking I was with the
Atari Paper Girl last week, she is cute and all but we are friends friends
people. She views me as the little kid who used to come by on a bicycle thats
fine. There is also this red one, who might cause some chaos, I dunno. Then
there is always miss sorentrue, all of this careful planning makes of interesting
business partners at the end of the night who know whose pants you are into??

my demotion at work means I must find money by doing some independent work.
K is going to hook me up with some work as well as the AtariPaperGirl,
(I have your cd ready by the way!!). All is well that ends well. I'm taking
a bit more careful photography today.

Friday - Vienna Cafe, Opa!
Saturday - Pop Life!
Sunday - Superbowl Party at the Leech Mansion!!! (woo-hoo)

"Whose comin' with me!"
- Jerry McGuire (Tom Cruise)

4:35 am - ongoing formulas and other math equations.
I have been deeply involved in Leonard Cohen again, this time
songs from Songs of Leonard Cohen and Songs for a Room. and the
latest album. I spend lots of time in my car commuting from west
broward to palm beach on M W F so its give me about an hour and
a half of listening time... so its a comfort. But often Im dozing
out to psychadelic music like early pink floyd's. Im finding things
to be busier, but Im loving this being busy. I love waking up and
jogging. I'm digging my photo class with the cute girls and the
amazing prof. This Saturday at the horse track "The Animals" and
then Sunday "Sergio Mendes" whose going with me!

"do you know whats good, life is good" - Lou Reed.

9:45 pm - off to the races
as it should be, we are off to the races.
But not the kind of horse, or dog tracks...but a more compelling one
dealing with dealings of ones own life, and what one will become and
the process of becoming. We are off to the races, there is not a
second to lose at this time, quiet and eating a seedless grape, I'm
making plans to plan. Planning these things quiet, looking at looks,
what was I so upset about before... perhaps because of uncareful planning.
But now the finances will be in control, health and body issue delt with
through running and yoga, and there is that upcoming thing, that thing
to prepare for, let us all read Camus and Financial Planning books, let
us not waste this time anymore... we must become busy or become boring.
and always we must be off to the races.

6:55 pm - snap snap that snap shot!
I have been a busy bee...
At Jai-Alai and at the Horse Track.
Reading books and collecting things less, eating out of lunch boxes,
flying kites, running in the mornings/ yoga in the mornings.

seeing all sorts of films. Hanging out with Paul Poletz.

There was a girl named "Ava" who came and went quickly at the same speed
that I have been in like a busy bee...

in quiet need of the orchid,
"maybe we can dance."

taking photos of invisible things, light meters in hand, messing
with the light meters to create different effects. These are the shots
that we take, on T - Th, with that lady of wonderful madness..

and tommorow Im in class, and then the next I am at work and on the weekend
is the Sabbath.

- Nathan.
