So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.

I was feeling lazy but I knew I had to get out of the house. If I sleep all day I fall into a terrible hole and I become sleepy all the time, and my body grows sick and sluggish and I sleep all day every day. This is why I don't take naps--- any nap I take will stretch into six or seven hours of nap and then I still sleep nine or ten hours that night. So I went to the Louvre and explored parts that I had never been. I saw the greyhound bus-sized paintings of every worthless detail of Catherine de Medicis' life. There was an exhibit of antique gold and silver clocks and pocket watches. I saw some Rembrandts. Sluggish. Still lifes with mounds of dead pheasants and rabbits. Grapes. Exhausted. I tried not to yawn in front of the museum guards, but I had to yawn at least once a minute. They had a painting of a bunch of young boys skinny dipping in lake. They said that the painting was probably just anecdotal, but there were allegorical aspects of it, like a one boy holding onto a dead tree, which was clearly illustrating the fragility of existence build on uncertain foundations, and one boy who had just fallen on his ass out of the boat, which clearly symbolized the dangers of putting too much faith in knowledge and neglecting outside aid. Clearly. Next thing you know, art critics will be saying that putting a cat in the upper corner of a painting symbolizes God. Hmmmm.... maybe back in the time before memes people had to spread their inside jokes using symbolism.... I spent a while online researching places where I could restart my long-delayed career in gymnastics.... they exist but I would be surrounded by 8-year-old girls. I did find a place that just lets you come twice a week and jump on their trampolines--- SOLD! Being able to find every crazy activity you could dream of is probably my favorite part about living in the big city. All of this looking up athletics on the internet inspired me to actually do some athletics, so I traveled out to a faraway park to do some jump-roping and break-dance moves. No sooner had I stretched and done 100 jumps, the soccer ball from a nearby group of soccer players came my way and I kicked it back. I decided that if they asked me if I wanted to play, I would say yes. The next time the ball came over to me, they asked me if I wanted to play. After learning I was American, they congratulated me on winning the Olympic Games. On behalf of all of America, thanked them and took full personal credit for every medal. (Embarrassingly I hadn't even been paying attention and I thought China had won the medal count). Then I beat alltheyall's asses because that's how I do. Then they invited me to play on their team in their all-girls soccer league that is starting in September. What?! So instead of a lonely day at the park I got a bunch of new friends and a soccer league! I was super-psyched to tell SharkBoy, because he loves soccer, but then I remembered that he dumped my ass. NO MATTER! Because come September I am going to be a parkouring, trampolining, soccer-playing maniac, hanging out with jinyu and representing for the U. S. A. Girl: Where are you from? Me: The USA Girl: I totally guessed that. They teach you guys to play soccer from birth or something. 7 Comments. That girl must be thinking about literally every country other than France and the U.S. » middaymoon on 2012-08-16 12:40:53 YEAH SOCCER i want to see some of that parkouring. » thaitanic on 2012-08-16 04:39:27 I'm guessing you didn't correct the French girl and tell her that the majority of the US really doesn't care about soccer? XD My boyfriend had to eat fast food for months because he really couldn't afford anything else. Now that he has a much better job, he can afford healthier food, so I'm really hoping the pounds will come off... Also, chic and beautiful? What? Hahahahahahaha » randomjunk on 2012-08-16 05:45:27 Oh, she meant you "girls" ? That makes more sense. » middaymoon on 2012-08-16 06:42:28 .... when i got to the sharkboy part i legitimately did a http://i.imgur.com/oghJd.png i know that feel son i know that feel i called whatshername today and it just made me curl up in a ball afterwards and listen to sad music til my sister came home im at her place visiting ._. i was THIS close to going back to virginia but after talking to her i was just all http://i.imgur.com/oghJd.png » undisputed on 2012-08-16 09:48:38 yo if you were here right now http://assets.sbnation.com/assets/1199581/kdsad_medium.gif » undisputed on 2012-08-16 09:49:58 the fact that you could identify the only woman in my life who truly loves me in ophelia makes me wonder remember why you're my shero » undisputed on 2012-08-18 12:47:17
