for another song to add to my favorites. "Those Nights." Go YouTube it if you haven't heard it yet.
I'm starting to get into the mode where I transition back to my other life. As it stands I see two opposing forces, one in each, each asking me to be a different person. I know who I need to side with, which answer I need to live up to and let take over the other. It's not easy. It's tempting. But neither of those phrases really encompass what it's like. I have to do violence against myself, no matter which I choose.
When I was a freshman, I discovered two characters in my mind, "Good Katelyn" and "Bad Katelyn". Over time, more popped up, and the good and bad evolved, the others taking sides. If you want to take a spiritual spin on it, one is an advocate for this world, one for the next. I feel like they're circling each other right now, knives in hand, biding their time until one slaughters the other. I know what side will need to win this battle, who I want to win. But the projected winner won't always be strong, and won't always have the ability to keep the other submissive. Before I step on the Mount, maybe before, maybe on the plane...but sometime the decision will have to be made.
And I'll need people to help me stick with it. Plane and simple. It'll change my lifestyle. But it'll be for the best. I just hope that I have enough strength to stick to it.

I'm going to be ambiguous.
It's funny how things can really be different than how they seem. What we'll do to feign normalcy. Suppress our lives of quiet desperation. What we'll do for friendship. What we're scared of doing.
Hopefully things will still turn out for the best.

American Kryptonite
By Five Iron frenzy is stuck in my head.
Hmmm....
I had a nice talk/walk with David last night. That was fun. :-) It's awesome to just talk to someone who's gone through a lot of the stuff you have, and being able to talk about stuff without worrying that you're going to look like an idiot. I love it. :-D
Sometimes I really wonder if I should have gone to Western. I mean, that's where I most likely would have gone sans Mount. Hearing all the stories from there, then going up to pick up Nathan and looking out his window at the sun starting to set over the bay...oh man. I don't know, sometimes I wonder how things would have turned out differently. It'd be completely different, that's for sure.
But the important thing is that I don't regret going to the Mount. I like it a lot, and there are some really good people there. Maybe my school is losing some of it's glitter because I've been away for two months. But I'll be back soon, and busy as heck.
I'm a bit scared to change. I know it's inevitable, and will be easier because I'm an RA and will have a few more obligations than before. That line from the song keeps going on repeat: "save yourself from sacrifice".
Dude I just got it.
People will often say that they'll trust their best friends with their life. Awesome. But Christians who are devout have to be able to trust their best friends with their soul. If you can't honestly say that you could, they really shouldn't be one of your best friends. There's a line. There has to be. Huh.
Yay for evening revelations.

*yawns*
A good night's sleep does wonders. Another thing I discovered in college.
I should get into the habit of writing more. I think it's good for me. And gives my stalkers something to read. *waves to the audience*
hmmm, let's see. My friends, you mean to the world to me. Kayla more or less already part of my family, because I know I'll always keep in contact with her some way or another, even if we live on opposite sides of the world. Kinda like my Dad and his friend Rick, from work. Rick and him started in the same week at UL (Underwriter's Labs for you n00bs. They test everything electronic to make sure YOU don't die from it. Plus other safety equipment. It's a non-profit, too). Now Rick does a heck of a lot of stuff in Hong Kong, and his primary office is in Northbrook, IL. He's a big manager person, like my dad. Except my dad is now some sort of weird internal consultant type person who saves the company's butt every few weeks by checking to make sure their quality control is up to par with the people who are checking on them. (big long story). But I digress lots. Basically, they're a world away from eachother and still keep in pretty darn good contact. My mom sends Rick packages of cheese and sausage and salsa and other good stuff at Christmas. He's also a Bears fan. Poor misguided soul. I love digressing.
I want to be a person who gives. I love treating my friends. Not for that happy feeling people get when they know they did something good. That's not quite it. It's knowing that we all get to go and have fun, and I like the fun that we all have, so I'm more than willing to fund it. when I have cash. Or like when I was little. My church does this thing every Lent called the "Rice Bowl." It's where each family (or person) gets a paper box that you fold on Ash Wednesday and put money in so that by the end of Lent you turn it into your church and they send it to people who need food in africa, goats in South america and schooling in south Asia, stuff like that. So when I was little I loved finding all the change that I had and put it all into the box. Jess would do it too. All my money, boom when in there. When I wasn't sure if I should put the five in or jsut leave it so I could have it, I'd think 'what the heck?" and put it in.
I want to be the grandma who makes cookies for everyone, who spoils her family rotten and their friends too. I think I'm in training to become like that. My mom always told me "be kind to everyone!" I know that mroe than I know any other teaching from church. I was the person who would be friends with the outcasts, because I wasn't mean to them. Of course, this caused a rift between me and the popular crowd in 5th grade, because apparently being nice and talking to Eric the weirdo was the same thing as dating him, and all of that was a no-no.
So I know I can do better. I'm not claiming to be a saint or anything, far from it. I never understood why people are mean to each other. Oh sure, yeah, go point the finger at me and jess. That's different. Sibling rivalry doesn't count. Yet. I don't get why people are mean just to be mean. I can see being mean to thsoe people who are just plain nasty to you. But I think it's stupid.
Maybe I should go and volunteer in some mission or something for a while. I really don't need a lot of stuff. Give me water, food, soap, a bible, a blanket and a few like-minded people and I'm fine. I don't mind distances, either. I know I said I was glad I didn't have to do a mission, but I think in reality if I did, I'd jump at the chance and go.
I don't know. Maybe I will be a nun and do that, or teach or something. I don't think I'd be unhappy.

But that was when I ruled the world
((From my facebook notes))
I'm recently addicted to that song, Viva la Vida by Coldplay. For some reason it strikes a chord in me and it's still ringing.
I've been wanting to bang out a note for a while. I feel like I have something to say, but I'm not sure what it is. I guess I've come to the point where I'll explode if I don't write something, and maybe update for all of you Mount loves who I pretend still take a look at these. ;)
When I got home from David's (we were watching Donnie Darko - good times), I stepped out of my car and looked up like I always do to look at the stars for a minute before I go inside. Tonight they're so clear, I can see so many. One of the best nights yet. It also reminded me of why I wanted to go work for NASA when I was in middle school. And that that dream died by the wayside thanks to the science department at Camas High School and a lack of self motivation and esteem on my part. Opening the fridge I thought about how all of my dreams from a few years ago have gotten terminally ill, and how it's too late for me to resurrect them. Pouring water over Ramen I thought about how I don't have any dreams to replace them, which gives me that empty feeling of pointlessness. And as I spilled hot soup on myself while climbing into bed I thought about the difference between feeling like this now and feeling like this back then is that I don't think about doing away with things, because I've got a few good friends I believe in and a future at school, where at least I'll have things to distract myself.
Most men lead lives of quiet desperation. I guess there's no escaping it for me. In high school I knocked myself down so I could be content with being normal and not achieving great things, putting the ceiling in. I suspect that by doing so I may have already committed suicide.
Now don't get me wrong. I'm having the time of my life back here. When I'm with my friends my happiness rivals that when I'm at school. Saturday Market with Jess, Powell's, Rimsky's, Stargazing, hiking, getting all but accused of illegal shenanigans by Officer Dickerson, campfires, driving up to Bellingham and back in a day, frisbee, low key partying and late night conversations about the important stuff. My friends have finally diverged into two groups, split between the college kids and the high school ones. Which is mostly a good thing. And David's coming to visit for ten days in March, maybe Nathan too, and that'll be awesome. :) It's hard to think about August right now, though.
Being back here I'm starting to get that hindsight vision of who I'll be if I keep going as I am at school. And also an idea of how I want to tweak it. It's not much, or I should say, not much that's usable to the general public. I'm trying to see my introvertedness and my apparently lack of control over my emotions as something that's not a deficiency. I'll get back to you on how that works out. Currently I have the impression that who I am doesn't carry much value in the rest of the world, compared to others. I keep asking myself why my friends bother to keep me around. Heh, yeah, I know some of you have answers to that. Which is why I stick around.
But on to a less depressing topic for me.
On top of all these rotting carcasses of deficiency and dead dreams, my prospects of where I'm going to live after college has, of course, gotten harder. I'm realizing that I really do love Washington a lot, and if I had to choose right now I'd stay here. But I don't want to choose now. I've decided to leave it up to God, and where I get the best job. That way I have the illusion that it's out of my hands for now, thus I stop worrying.
"Hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing, Roman Calvary choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield, my missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain, I know St. Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
but that was when I ruled the world."
So there's hope for me yet. Goodnight everybody.

icky nasty
All right, I know most of my posts here have been surrounding things of the relationship nature, but I figure that doesn't matter too much.
I feel nasty. I won't go into too much detail, because I don't feel like taking this off my Facebook profile.
I'm a bit depressed and masochistic with a plummeting self worth. I feel a bit like I did in high school, at times. But the difference is that I know that I have people who love me, so that's keeping me from acting on any of my masochistic impulses.
I feel like a failure and a box of vice. Ghosts from before are coming back and giving me nightmares while i'm awake and haunting me. All I feel like I'm worth is to be a prostitute.
Well, see, the difference between this and last summer and the years before that is now I've got a huge beacon of hope, a life given to me by the Mount. They don't know about my past ghosts; they don't live there.
I'm in a big hole, and taking small steps to climb out, small victories.
I don't see why my friends bother to keep me around. I feel like the small victories aren't enough, that I'm not keeping up and just falling deeper and farther away from them while slowly taking two steps forward and one step back.
I look at myself and see weakness. Not worth anything. the disease, not the cure. I don't know how to work hard, and is it worth it to try and learn now, while I feel so far behind the learning curve?
needless to say, I don't like me right now, and I want to go leave, but I can't. I'm chained to me and I can't get free.
I guess unless I get to the higher level I want to be at, I'm gonna be fucking miserable.
Bah. I'm gonna go listen to music and maybe sleep.

Maddening
I don't think this will make it to Facebook. A tiny bit too personal, I think. Although, those of you who stalk this blog are of course welcome to read on. I know you're out there, lurking. :)
David comes home next week. Thus, my life will officially have made a 180 back to where it was.
This is so maddening, so maddening. So far this time home has felt like a dream. I'm just moving in a foggy space empty save for voices and shadows. But once he's home, things will come back to some semblance of normal. Why David, in particular? It feels like many things since my freshman year have been related to him. I had a cute little crush on him freshman year, sophomore year too, and then really felt his absence when he went to college. Band wasn't the same, it wasn't quite as much fun. But that summer he came back, and all of us went out and had fun. Senior year I was a mess, but that summer he came back and helped me sift through a lot of transition shit to college. More than anything I feel like he's a mentor to me. Even when he messed with my little naive head in early high school, he was a mentor, I assume without his knowledge. Adjusting to college was structured by how much I thought about him in the first few months, and then not at all for a while. But every so often we would talk online, and he'd offer me the perspective I needed. Or the kick in the ass. I love him a lot, platonic love of course. And next year he will be a senior, and this might be our last summer. If anything, I hope to be finally at his level. He always got it more than I did, was always a little bit farther along. It's hard for me to believe that we'll ever be equals. Maybe years down the road, if we meet up again.
But I can't think about the future too much right now. I makes me sad, deep inside. I've already had to say goodbye to so much of my childhood already.
But to carry on, he will be home and my life here will start living. Besides the frustration with not yet being able to find a job (whatever, it's my fault. Moving on...), I think one of the biggest things about my other life is that I think I found my first love, and now I get to kill it before it drives me mad. I know, I know, it sounds horribly, just utterly bogus and cliche. But hear me out. If you've experienced it before, you know what I'm talking about. If not, then really you can't get it.
See, I never thought I'd be one of those people who say, "You never forget your first love." because it always seems like that way part of you always loves them, and then you'll never be able to give yourself fully to anyone else. I guess I always believed that I'd be one of the lucky ones. Well, nope, sorry. Here's some life experience, go chew on it. I mean, yeah, it makes me understand more, and I guess it'll make me a more complex, deeper person with a capacity for a different kind of beauty in it. But I didn't want to be broken, damnit. I wanted...still want...everything to turn out perfect. No, it wont. Sorry babe, that's what happens. Looks like it might be the point in your life where you get to learn disappointment. But dear, remember what you already know: Life is a balance; the more pain you suffer the better the good will feel. And vice versa. More to lose, more to gain. Ever thought that there might be a reason why you get to be so damned happy there? Maybe it's because you're gonna have to deal with some tough stuff, some really tough stuff, and it all balances it out. You just have to go out and find that balance.
So now while I'm figuring out how to break what should and piece back what should, I still see the humor in it. Now the bar has been set even higher. Not only does it have to have all those lovely qualities that you can describe, but you've found something unquantifiable. Good for you, you know understand "Spark". And of course, you can't settle for anything less. You little high achiever you. Yes, dear, you know that there is a possibility of you getting together with Mr. Right. but if you do, he'll be a different person than he is now, and frankly so will you. So let it go, it won't be there anymore. Just like your childhood. Just like those summers.
And don't even think about any what ifs. David taught you that. So in the meantime, throw back your head and laugh with your friends. Live it up in as many ways as you know how. You have two lives now, girl, and this one more than deserves your time now. Give it a fair shot at winning your heart, and maybe you'll be able to let other things go.
David comes home next week. Thus, my life will officially have made a 180 back to where it was.

Yes, dear, you know that there is a possibility of you getting together with Mr. Right. but if you do, he'll be a different person than he is now, and frankly so will you. So let it go, it won't be there anymore. Just like your childhood. Just like those summers.
And don't even think about any what ifs. David taught you that. So in the meantime, throw back your head and laugh with your friends. Live it up in as many ways as you know how. You have two lives now, girl, and this one more than deserves your time now. Give it a fair shot at winning your heart, and maybe you'll be able to let other things go.
