"You do need people; you need them so much so that it scares you to death. You drive them away so..."

“You do need people; you need them so much so that it scares you to death. You drive them away so they don’t get too close; yet you regret it every time you do. You claim you don’t want anyone to understand you. But you do. You want it very much. It’s just that you don’t believe that it is possible for anyone to understand, and you cannot bear to be let down again.”

“At least once in your life, when you need to reset, pick a handful of places 4 to 8 hours away in every direction. Put them in a hat, get in the car, pull a name, and drive there. No questions asked.”

Twitter: The Comic is a collection of comics based on the greatest tweets of our generation. The source material is used verbatim, typos and all. Despite the seemingly random nature of the tweets, the comic has reoccurring characters and story arcs that aren’t fully understood unless experienced through a single reading. With explicit permission from the writers of each comic, Twitter: The Comic could be a pretty rad book.

"1. There will be several days that you daydream about stepping in front of a city bus. Don’t. It..."

Thu, 16 May 2013 12:45:58 -0400

“

1. There will be several days that you daydream about stepping in front of a city bus. Don’t. It will not be beautiful. It will not be brave. It will be selfish. It will be broken. Your mother will cry.

2. Don’t write for him. Write for you. Write for others like you. Write so the girl that thinks about stepping in front of public transportation doesn’t. Don’t be selfish.

3. When you will yourself to sleep and it doesn’t come- get up. It doesn’t matter that it’s 3 am. There will be other 3 am’s. Take a shower. Take two. Wash him out of your hair. Write a poem. Read the same book you’ve read 202 times again. The 203rd time might tell you something different. Don’t stay in bed- you will think about the bus again.

4. Don’t kiss him because he’s broken. Don’t kiss him because his laughter never reaches his eyes. Don’t try and fix him. Fix yourself first. Be selfish. He can’t save you.

5. Date yourself. Take yourself out to eat. Don’t share your popcorn at the movies with anyone. Stroll around an art museum alone. Fall in love with canvases. Fall in love with yourself.

6. Dress up and wear red lipstick and get drunk with your friends. They’re the ones that will pick you up. Don’t kiss him. Or him. Don’t fall asleep on strange couches with strange boys. When his hand slides up your dress walk away. Hit him. Don’t kiss him. He can’t save you.

7. Get another tattoo. Get five more. Get another hole in your ear. Don’t listen to your dad. You will still be able to get a job. Did you really want to be employed by someone like your father? Haven’t you had enough of judgmental old white men anyway? Get fuck you tattooed in tiny letters on your hip.

8. When you feel the yearning for a new city- start over. Take 200 bucks and a three suitcases. Work anywhere that will have you. Meet strange people and forget your name. Call yourself Ruby. No one will know the difference. Remember to call your mother. Don’t be selfish. Come home when you find yourself in the strangers and the small one bedroom apartment.

9. Don’t whisper evil things into your own ear. Other people are going to shout them at you. Be your own hero. Keep a sword on your key ring.

10. Don’t step in front of a city bus. It will not be beautiful. Live. Stay up all night with a boy that promises you everything and means it. Live. See shitty local bands with a friend. Wear a different band’s t-shirt. No one will care. Live. Have a baby girl with tiny fingers and tiny toes someday. Pour love into her until it’s overflowing. Live. Wake up. Staying in bed all day is not poetic.

Live. Live.

Live.

Do you hear that? It’s me. It’s your life. Wake up.

Summer Play Reading

Wed, 15 May 2013 22:37:00 -0400

I’ve decided to move it over to www.theplaybill.tumblr.com so that I won’t be bogging down you guys with my posts about plays if you’re not interested.

I think I’m going to give my personal opinion on the play, title, author, cast size, and then note if there are any good scene study scenes that are worth pointing out, just for future reference.

I’ll also let you know if I have copies of the play the lend out.

Follow theplaybill.tumblr.com if that’s your cup of tea.

Yes. First reading of it, but not first exposure. I’ve never seen, but I’ve seen a lot of work based on the relationship between Vladimir and Estragon and the themes. Though, that doesn’t come close to reading it. (And I only read Endgame once too)

Summer Reading

Wed, 15 May 2013 13:44:10 -0400

A list of all the plays (and novels, if I read any) that I take the time to read this summer. (I will keep updating the list.)

The Memory of Water, by Shelagh Stephenson
For those familiar with Experiment with an Airpump, The Memory of Water holds onto a lot what Stephenson put into the 20th century scenes. It’s a play about doctors and alcoholics and siblings dealing with the death of a mother, when the mother was really the only thing they all had in common. My favourite part of this play was that each of the sisters beautifully portrays a different ideology of romance, and that no matter what way the reader feels lonely, there’s a sister for him/her to relate to. I’d recommend this as reading, but not as quickly as I’d recommend Experiment with an Airpump.
Waiting for Godot, by Samuel Beckett
As an incredibly influential piece of writing, I would immediately recommend reading this. I read Endgame last year, and I gotta confess, I didn’t really like it. Granted, there were a lot of beautiful lines, but as a whole piece, I wasn’t partial. I think there’s a huge difference between seeing and reading absurdist theatre. So, I’m excited to plan a time where I can go see Waiting for Godot. I think there was a lot of dragging in Godot, but again, I think that was part of the point. Truly, if it wasn’t so incredibly influential, I wouldn’t recommend it. But, it’s important, so read it.

If my atoms are constantly being replaced by new ones without me even noticing, could the same thing be happening to my ideologies?
