what propels the journey? the journey of this play i am going to - supposed to - create. i am supposed to act like god and decide what happens to everyone in this little world that i have made.


meanwhile, i think i might have make a play about theatre vs. sorority girl - show everyone that all of my preoccupation with sisterhood has really been research. why does everyone want a piece of my time? like 4 oatmeal cookies in a class of 5, there just aren't enough to go around - and no one wants to eat just half... this reminds me of a comic strip from calvin and hobbes.

this is how i feel... like there are so many pressures that are no longer allowing me to be innocent, have fun, imagine. all of the stress of trying to create something is squelching the one thing i need in order to create. my imagination. i want to see my tiger again.

If it makes you feel a little better, that's not really the last Calvin and Hobbes strip. This, however, is:

I know how you feel. I wish I could be several places at once!

Hey by the way i really like this blog!! That C&H strip is probably the saddest one ever written.

The real world should never be able to wrestle Calvin away from his childhood. This is why everyone loves C&H. It's because he doesn't have the constraints we inevitably get; he has his childhood and his imagination and nothing seems to interfere with it. This strip makes me sad because it's all too real that that fantasy world which is childhood will always end. At least Bill Waterson wants to point out that we shouldn't make it end any sooner than normally for our children.
