Yellow Converse?

This is the first second I've had time to even think of anything other than school. I'll try to sum up the past month or so of my life. I had several near death experiences—none of them fatal for obvious reasons. I've listened to some good music. I saw band of horses in Seattle during Thanksgiving break. Had a mini reunion with the people I went to Jr. academy with. So strange to see them all.

I am feeling a little lost with my plans for next year. I'm at the point where if I don't take certain classes next quarter, and then I decide to not leave this school, I would really be in trouble as far as trying to graduate from here. It is just really scary to think about the changes that will happen this next year. I will have to leave my home here. I will end up crashing at my mum's house... trying to find a new job, and commuting until I can find someplace to live. It's totally different from what I have experienced the past year. I don't know. I've got no idea where I'll end up. I am scared, but I think it will be really good for me. I'm just in the freak out/reality is hitting me stage... still frightening, nevertheless.

On my playlist this week:
Stars - In Our Bedroom After the War (whole album—each song is so different and good)
Palpitation - 'too soon to give up'
James Figurine - '55566688833' (I love the lyrics)
Tegan and Sara - 'where does the good go' and The Con (whole album)
Sebear - 'cat piano'
Band of Horses - Cease to Begin (am in love with the whole album and can't stop playing it)
Kate Nash - 'merry happy'
Jaymay - 'blue skies'
Headphones - 'i never wanted you'
Wilco - 'what light' and 'on and on and on'
Efterklang - 'mirador' (have stumbled across them several times and it just clicked)
The Radio Dept. - 'always a relief'
The Weepies - 'gotta have you' (best song ever... i have loved it for a while)

I had a dream last night that I received a package in the mail. My friends were at my house when I opened it. There was an iPhone inside, a pair of yellow converse, and some other stuff I can't remember. The package was addressed to "Heather Modern" which is not my name... but usually the post office doesn't mess up that bad, they just mess up addresses... right? I thought I would keep the iPhone, but then I looked at the shoes. They were yellow—a color I like, but can never wear or I look dead, and they were a size 6. Not my size. From that I somehow concluded that it would be wrong for me to keep the iPhone, and that someone would miss it if I kept it... that the package was actually for some other girl named Heather Modern. Strangest dream I've had in a long time. Interpretations? Anyone?

  1. I just changed my name to Heather Modern. Send me the iPhone and shoes - oh, and can you make those a size 9 perhaps?
