I glimpsed a bat with butterfly wings

So I'm not at school, something I'm going to have to get used to! I feel like i'm doing something bad, i feel so incredibly guilty! But it's silly. School is definitely not an option at the moment. At least being at home I'm going to be able to get so much more done. I just wish some people were a bit more understanding.

Good things are happening though, I have a website, I'm dyeing my hair brown on thursday after being blonde for 18 years, it's my birthday in 6 days, my boyfriend is coming down for my birthday weekend, and I'm getting a new camera, finally!

I have really missed taking photographs. It still upsets me that I had to watch such a perfect autumn pass and I wasn't able to photograph any of it. But never mind, there are many more autumns to come I suppose.
I have to work on my fort-bed before my boyfriend gets here! I can't wait to give him his christmas presents, I hope this is a good month!

“This is what I believe: That I am I. That my soul is a dark forest. That my known self will never be more than a little clearing in the forest. That gods, strange gods, come forth from the forest into the clearing of my known self, and then go back. That I must have the courage to let them come and go. That I will never let mankind put anything over me, but that I will try always to recognize and submit to the gods in me and the gods in other men and women. There is my creed.”
