Mimic of "nadja description"



I saw Karyn today, her dark skin and long hair were so elegant looking. All the negihboors thinks she odd because she never comes out but I dont think so, her grace and wisdom englightens me, I watch her moves from a far. The way her hands are out to help the ones around her, her head down because shes hard at work, never turning her face the opposite direction of assitance. I wonder who she is, what she thinks after hard at work, if she is pleased by her actions or if she just does it genuinely just because she wants to, I wonder if I will be that one day when I am older or if you have to be that way from the beginging. Do I try to be this way now or do I give up?

(The flower carrier from a point of view with insperation of Nadja)

10 words from Nadja

The reading Nadja was very interesting but also hard to follow because of the long sentences. Our minds are only set to read something short to be captured so I had to reread sentences and break them up myself. I decided to break something else up for myself from Nadja. I took every tenth word from each chapter and created a sentence and tried to make sense of it.

1.Rely knowing word myself I says referring order sense:

This sentece to me means that you can not rely on others for guidence, you have to rely on yourself. If you only follow what others say then you stop thinking for yourself and will always need help for the next step. You know yourself the best and that is the best "order of sense". You will not continue something if there is no motivation nor stop something if there is constant temptation. You are the only one that will be motivated and the only one to say no.

2.Those spend stopping bookstore the beginning buildings, hands:

This sentece is pretty distorted but to me it means that people are so focused on spending there money that they need to just stop and pass by building or look at a book and see at the detail and be able to appreciate the simplicity of things.

3. Who and be after let one would he I will:

To me this sentece says a lot. I think people make mistakes and maybe after those mistakes people will reject that person and look at them differently but one person will look at them and see something different. No one is a "waste" because someone will find that person and love them for who they are, not what they did.

I searched google and found some images.. I first searched the word




it came up with images like so:



and ..



and to be honest... they didnt make all that much sense to me so i carried on and searched another word. I looked at sacrifice. I found these images:




and..





and again.. I didnt really understand it.. but I did like this picture..




I moved back to Washington for someone so I think thats why I chose the words denied and sacrifice subconsiously. When I first looked at these pictures, i thought.. what does paris hilton and this body builder woman lady frien.. have to do with anything. Apparently Paris Hilton got denied from a clud and the mucho women body builder sacrificed her eating habit for a bit to have a "nice" body.. Maybe that is what denied and sacrifice mean to people.. hurting someone or even getting denied "sexually". I dont know. But when I saw that last image I thought to myself.. it doesnt matter how much you feel like you have your heart ripped out from someone .. they can just take it and not even care. I think people have a mislead idea of the real meaning of words.. or maybe google does.. i dunno. But I feel like everytime I search a word.. it just not the right image.

just random

Okay I PROMISE I will get my video up tomorrow.. my pictures are pretty cool too :) I completely didnt get this blog thing but now that I do its pretty fun hah. My brother and I just moved into our place so we have the camera but dont have the cords to hook it up and download pictures. With that we also dont have cable because he forgot the box and we dont have music because theres no batteries.. Basically here is pretty awesome. But now that I figured out blogging and actually have the internet hooked up so I dont have to drive all the way to the library to figure it out is pretty nice ha well ill get my video up tomorrow ujst though id let everyone know! and about that.. how do i do that?
My brother Rich and I played sorry with our friend at our apt. because thats the only game we have. We were having so much fun (especially my brother and I) bumping eachother off the board and having to watch the other person put there piece on start and loose. We laughed so hard everytime this happened and then would yell sorry. I wasthinkging about it though and of course having the assignment in mind, but this is how life kind of is. You start out as equals in a law firm or and other kind of job and then push everyone down so you can get yourself up. At times you may even be happy because a step down for a a friend means a step up for you. Life is amazing dont get me wrong but people in general are so selfish at times you have to laugh about. I know I do. I remember at my old school I was in a soroity and I missed class so I asked my friend what the assignment was ans she told me we didnt have any. Turned out we had a take home test that day. Me failing that test means the curve for grades would be better. I wanted to rat her out for being a b* but I desided to be the bigger person and put it behind me. I talked to my teacher and let him know that yes it was my fault for not coming to class but that I really wanted to make that test up. I ended up being able to do it in class but everyone else got to use a book at home. I was mad at myself ofcourse but I realized it doesnt matter if its a good friend or not everyone is in it for the next "step". Sorry or not it still happened so yelling sorry or acutally being sincere about it, people are still willing to screw you over to get ahead.

The everyday and confusion

In class we talked about the concept of revolution or at least thats what my group was suppose to talk about. When we began talkin about revolution we actually started talking about evolution. I was so completely confused so we had to really stop and think about the word revolution itself. We thought about the example that Joe gave the class the other day. (New technology for the classroom such as four tvs in each corner but now that the class is created there is really no use for them. What we realy need is new computers but in the context of revolution.. they will soon be outdated and we can recieve everything through out phone) Revolution is an everyday to day change and this is what the book is potraying. This change is not necasaily "evolvment" but a change that is forced, necesay. Revolution occurs so we can function to our fullest. Our group didnt get to discuss this in class but I thought it was important to metion because I didnt understand it and now I do. I also was completely confused by this blog thing too.. and forgot my password so that didnt help :)
