People

If you have no passions I have no interest of talking to you.
If you are pathetic, I don't want to be your friend.

Taking this French class is making me very emotional. Sometimes I feel extremely confident that I can one day master this beautiful language. Sometimes I feel completely overwhelmed by the complexities of the grammar.

This is my favorite segment from Paris, Je T'aime:

The day when my sister and I travel to France seems to far away. The good thing of not being able to go now is that when we do go, we will be French speakers. I will be, anyway. She will still be in the beginning phases. There is no one else that I would rather go to France with first.

The Concubine

I love big life changes.

1. Job. Yes, I, Ana Karen Torres, have a job. A job that pays beautiful money. I also get to feel the pain of standing on my feet for long hours. Unfortunately this time I have to wear nice shoes. I also have to wear awful makeup and generally look like a chic douche.

2. Baby. I am such a pussy. My brother was born and he is beautiful. I swear I still hate babies! I can't believe I made it through such an intense, bloody procedure without fainting. I will never give birth.

3. News and Cooking shows. I am so happy when I watch both. I need to watch both every day. Need to.

4. France. Being taught French by such a wonderful teacher in such a great way makes my dream of fluency very attainable. Finding the blog Truffles for Breakfast shows me that it is definitely possible to move to France and become a French citizen. They don't even speak French well!

5. Chicago. I've decided I don't want to live my adult life here.

6. Cats. Cats are better companions than people.

7. Alone. I definitely prefer being alone. People are so disappointing and pathetic. I also definitely want to live alone the rest of my life. Unless I meet someone that I am unbelievably, mind blowingly compatible to live with--no thanks. I'll take cats.

I hate it when people are attracted to me and they show it. I'm pretty much an asshole to you if you like me. I'm an asshole if you look at me inappropriately. I wish no one was attracted to me. My cats are waiting for me to go to sleep. Need to clip my fails first. I hate long nails, always.

Mies & Aggy

Just remembered the part in Wendy and Lucy when they have to say goodbye. I could never say goodbye to my cats.

My life sucks right now.
I am being pathetic right now.

Rain

I was walking in the rain when I imagined the perfect layout of "Drivin' or Car Ride". I haven't decided upon the title yet. I think I'm leaning towards Drivin' more.

Listening to the Duchess and the Duke.
Thinking about showering.
Smelling badly.


I want to be excellent at one thing.

List

My life is dominated by lists. Lists make me feel both extremely uncomfortable and extremely realistic. Extreme.

Things I would like to do:


Play the Ukulele

Tap Dance




These are at the very top of the list. The next two are getting a haircut and a new wardrobe.
