Some pages in my books 📓☕️☁️

[belovedapollo]

recent pages from my journals 🍂reblog is ok, don’t repost/use

[fintan-pyren]

academic who writes a paper and just puts "credit to original author :)" for all their citations

[fintan-pyren]

The WHOLE POINT of this post was that this would be a bad thing to do, so you shouldn't do it with art either. This is a PRO-CITATION post. Stop complaining about citations and saying that you wish you could get away with this.

Wow, found these old competition writing papers (from 8th grade) while visiting my parents house

[shadeystudies]

Oh but it’s not over yet. I’ve got 6and a half more hours of airplane flights now that I’ve been released from the review

[shadeystudies]

I’m so afraid that if I fall asleep in the airport that I’ll miss my flight

[shadeystudies]

Every time I fly I pass by gates to cities I used to live. I see them, not ten feet away, and think about what if- what if -what if. But my ticket always reads my initial destination so those ten feet become a thousand

[shadeystudies]

One leg down. Weather’s bad in both cities. I think I involuntarily slept the whole flight and I’m still so tired

[shadeystudies]

Finally done with being on an airplane

Ta daaaa

Exhausted. But they liked my project I think. My review was significantly less harsh than other people’s.

[shadeystudies]

Review tomorrow… so much. Work.

I wish they’d not time gated this project… which meant that we only had one week to pull together end of semester level material. Oh did I mention that? They wanted drawings that would normally be presented at semester end for the midterm because the rest of the semester will be occupied by detail drawings and CD level articulation.

Vacation

I love the hour before takeoff,

that stretch of no time, no home

but the gray vinyl seats linked like

unfolding paper dolls. Soon we shall

be summoned to the gate, soon enough

there’ll be the clumsy procedure of row numbers

and perforated stubs—but for now

I can look at these ragtag nuclear families

with their cooing and bickering

or the heeled bachelorette trying

to ignore a baby’s wail and the baby’s

exhausted mother waiting to be called up early

while the athlete, one monstrous hand

asleep on his duffel bag, listens,

perched like a seal trained for the plunge.

Even the lone executive

who has wandered this far into summer

with his lasered itinerary, briefcase

knocking his knees—even he

has worked for the pleasure of bearing

no more than a scrap of himself

into this hall. He’ll dine out, she’ll sleep late,

they’ll let the sun burn them happy all morning

—a little hope, a little whimsy

before the loudspeaker blurts

and we leap up to become

Flight 828, now boarding at Gate 17.
