Koln Cathedral – Germany

I am seldom rendered speechless by an image. The sheer majesty of this structure is unparalleled. Simply put, I’ve never seen anything like it, and I must see it in real life.

I’m sure many of you have seen it before, but for whatever reason it’s never crossed my path.

Do you suppose it’s where Tim Burton gets his inspiration?

It’s terrifying, really. Looks like an illusion, as though the walls are bleeding right into themselves.

I am spellbound.

I will link to my friends journal, so I’m not directly stealing the image. . .

Don’t forget to click the image to see it in all its glory.

Here’s a tiny sample, just to entice you to go look at the one my friend took with his personal camera, which is a thousand times more awe inspiring.

Word to the wise.

Don’t check out the Myspace pages of the girls your boyfriend goes out with, cuz you know how Myspace is – one person leads to another – and next thing you know, you find this really awesome friend of a friend of the girl, but you can’t send them a message cuz you’ll look stalktastic.

Damn it.

Taking a break from Math.

WOMEN: Bodies, Sex and Science

What are women made of? Why do women make the choices they do? In this course we explore women from a sociological and health science perspective for a well-rounded inquiry about things such as nutrition, stress, and media images. Come dig deep into issues that affect all of us!

Receive 10 credits from the following courses:

• HLTH 250 Wellness (5 CR) AND
• SOC 110 Introduction to Sociology (5 CR) OR
• SOC 170 Social Problems of Contemporary Society (5 CR) OR
• SOC 256 Introduction to Sex & Sexuality (5 CR)

So I’m taking a break from the Math before it kills me.  I’m gonna delve into Sociology a bit next quarter.  Thought this class looked pretty cool   And it’s a ten credit course!  I’m adding Race in the United States for 200, Alex.  I’m gonna be an ethnographic sex therapist.

Just kidding.

All now with wings.

I’m wistful tonight, and hopeful, and find myself believing in love in a thousand places, a million ways, microscopic bursts of possibility exploding at every turn.  I see the future, my love – you at my feet, the burden of desperate truth tearing you apart.  Right now I see a lot of myself in you.  I want to know your name, from the inside out.  I wonder who you are when you’re not wearing words, and walking someone else’s path.  I want you to devour me, and cherish every whisper as I cherish yours.  I want to catch you gazing at me in my sleep. I want to know that you would fight for me, for one moment by my side, as I would for you.  I want to throw away all the words and just have silence.

I want it all now.

Truth.

Woman. You bring silence to my heart. There are no mistakes when pursuing beauty.

I have so much more to say, but I will wait until I can watch you blush when I say it, when I can pull you in to me, and make you self-conscious with my longing. I won’t turn away until you break it with another kiss. A kiss more perfect and natural than I could have imagined. It’s more than I remembered, and I never thought that possible.

Have you ever had someone you could tell your secret plans to?

It’s shameful the things I imagine when I dream of you. And the hardest part is, I know you feel the exact same way.
