i got an A on my first french test of the semester. c’est bon, n’est-ce pas? i feel really stupid because the oral is coming a lot slower than the written. i guess it’s normal, but i hate not knowing answers when something is asked and isn’t written in front of me.

i think i’m going to chop off my hair at the end of the month. i’m getting sick of having the boyish-cute thing. that’s always been my thing. i’m thinking about a modified crew cut with shaved sides and a longer top, but still way tighter than i’ve been doing. it wouldn’t be too insanely different than this, but the sides would be shaved and it wouldn’t be spiky on top. very clean, very tight, but very edgy. like those homoerotic sailor fashion shoots.

i’m having identity issues.

i feel like i am lately running out of things to say. i don’t really want to speak, or be the life of a party. maybe we run in cycles, running out of words and rebuilding the urge. i always thought it would be fascinating to wake up one day and not speak, that day or any following.

ps - new york times magazine portraits? fierce. especially helen mirren.
