Description
this is what i know-that everything you or i would want to say about culture, or human rights, equity, ad infinitum
has been said before,
and probably by someone a whole lot smarter than either of us.
someone who knew what they were talking about,
who had lived in the ghettos and gutters of calcutta (or toronto as the case may be)
or at least was better at making shit up about it.
so tell you what-
don't write that poem about the place you've never been
or that story about that thing you've never seen.
conserve the paper (or at least recycle the rough drafts if you really want to make a difference)
and come see me when you have something to say that i don't already know.

I enjoy that most beaches in the North are all very rocky. Where I live we have a bit of both, but I like to think that with climate change so does the landscape. The weathering isn't as powerful in colder climates. I'm sure you know all this, but it's always cool to think about :]

yeah, i agree. the beach where this photo was taken, actually was both, too. it had some sandy bits, but i prefered the rocks. i dunno, i just love all the smooth rounded pebbles.

me too! the kind you find on beaches and it seems like it must be from a pirate ship at least, and you can just tell it's got some sort of story behind it.

Yeah, he showed us a picture of him covered in stones on the beach one day in chat. I should have assumed you all have one.
Sounds wonderful to me. Aren't you original, now?

oh. well, i started it. haha, yeah, jon and i have one. daniel doesn't, cause he's a silly.
i always thought so, but i can hardly be unique if everyone's unique .. *sigh XD

cherrichan13 In reply to WanderingHere [2010-09-16 20:01:16 +0000 UTC]
I am shocked. completely shocked. Why wouldn't he want one?
That is untrue. It just makes your uniqueness less prominent.

oh, i think maybe he did, but i did my legs, and then he and jon did the rest of me, and dan did jon, so there was no one left to do him. when jon and i got up again, he wanted to go diving off a cliff, so .. short attention span, maybe?
are you sure? i thought, cause like, there's a saying i think, you're unique. juuust like everyone else. you know?

Awww, poor Dan. But jumping off cliffs is fun, too.
Well, yeah, I suppose. I guess it depends on the perspective of the person looking at you.

Oh, me too. But after I went zip lining, I'm not as scared of it/heights anymore. Can't argue with that one.

WanderingHere In reply to cherrichan13 [2010-10-04 01:09:13 +0000 UTC]
at all? wow. that's kind of amazing. i've gone ziplining before, but we didn't do any actual falling, so i dunno.
i went on a ride once, at wonderland, which is a park thing, and it drops you 152 feet. 52 of which are free fall. and i had fun, i loved it, but i'm still terrified.

cherrichan13 In reply to WanderingHere [2010-10-16 23:35:45 +0000 UTC]
Have you? I loved it, actually. How high up were you? And no, I'm probably still scared of heights in the right circumstance, but not as much. Not when I'm ziplining, at least.
That sounds pretty terrifying, yes. You're brave to even get on in the first place.

um, i'm not sure. it was in costa rica, and the trees were massive! it didn't seem that high though. it was just fun!
yeah, i agreed to it without knowing what it was, and my friends wouldn't let me back out! looking back, though, i'm glad they didn't.

It probably would be. I don't think I could get up there, but I admire you for doing so.

Bahaha. I love you, and this. Because you and it are both FANTASTIC.
