we simply can't focus on anything

In a new splurge of procrastination, I have created another blog. Yes, another one. Because honestly, I grew bored of my old ones and even seeing them makes me kinda sick. But I need a new form of distraction. I don't think my wallet can handle many more movies. The title is "borrowed" from The Picture of Dorian Grey just in case anyone was wondering. And it pretty much sums up the blog. It is undefinable. It will probably end up being a bunch of random thoughts as they flit through my mind.

To start off the randomness, I guess this post will be about the really random people I've been meeting lately. Like yesterday in class (a torturously boring class) this guy comes up to me in break to comment on my doodling. First of all, I find it kind of creepy that people watch me doodle in class, but I guess that is just a testament to how boring the class is. Anyways, he was talking about the "weird" way I doodle (I start in the left margin, then fill the right one, then start from the bottom of the page and work my way up - you know, in case I feel like taking notes at any time). He goes on to say that I must have a small fluffy dog cuz I look the type. Totally didnt believe me when I said I didnt. And then we went on to talk about goldfish, the names of European countries, computer programs, and allergies. This was all in the course of 7 minutes. I have no idea how one topic related to the other, but the conversation seemed to flow. All in all, a pretty ramdom talk.

Then today, I was asked to sign some petition about something or other. The lady had a British accent so I stopped for her and signed it. And we got to talking and she knew someone who had visited Saudi Arabia (where my dad is from) and had the most hilarious stories about it. I'm always surprised by how many people I meet that have some sort of tie to Saudi Arabia. People you would never expect would even know the name of the country. It's always cool.

  1. Oh Lord Henry..Most of that book should be quoted. Almost every sentence that comes out of Lord Henry's mouth is an official quote, or rule you should follow no matter how disturbing or utterly unruly he is.
    They're making a movie though. I'm super excited, Ben Barnes is Dorian Gray *swoon and faint then die* and Lord Henry will be played by Colin Firth, I'm happy lool
