About Me:
I think I'm realizing a fundamental difference between discovery and creation... I used to think that wherever you DIG, reservoirs of symbol bubbled to the surface and caves of meaning were revealed. Now I wonder if when we turn our attention to some thing, we aren't actually CREATING its expanding virtue- worlds opening up wherever we shine our lights. What this means is, I don't want to find love or happiness or peace in a world gone crazy anymore, I want to make it.

beautiful people I have ever met. Though
I have found her insight and intelligence
to be far too intimidating, her love and
respect for her friends is inspirational.
rooftop, in a city, surrounded by
jungle, between mountains, under
a moonlit sky, when a gargantuan
cockroach scuttled up onto my lap,
then promptly reversed direction
and went to nibble my toes.
Now, despite the excellence of the
moon, the mountains, the jungle,
the city, the bar, and the cockroach
itself, it all was far less enjoyable
than were it in fact Christie, instead
of the cockroach, performing the
same manoeuvres.This is not to
say that Christie is a particularly
good lap-scuttler or toe-nibbler,
although it's certainly not NOT to
say this as well, but rather that
she's simply wonderful company,
as well as a strong ally in the
struggle against pre-appropriate
balance and careless mundanity.
Christie also posseses the
capacity to be at least as verbose as I
am, which makes me feel less alone in
the world. In summary,
fingersXtoesXKickass doesn't even
come close as an equivalent sum to
C.Strong, glowing.
her she is listening to good music.
Rock on.
testimonial or "recommendation" (as
christie says it) for several reasons.
being the writer and the wit that she
is, i was a little intimidated at first
to present my unorganized thoughts
(christie has high expectations.
really high.) and of course, when i
finally did write something great,
friendster became unavailable, causing
me to loose all of my thoughts.
basically, strong is one of the only
people that i know that literally bears
her name. the girl is tough. not only
emotionally, but she could wipe the
floor with my ass...even if i wasn't
puny. she could do this with the sheer
force that runs through her blood and
resides in her mind. i thinks that's
why she walks so ridiculously fast all
the time...it's the force that is
driving her. she's just gotta move.
she's also witty as fuck. she keeps it
to herself most of the time, but when
the girl decides to bring it down, she
does. and when this happens, she makes
me laugh harder than any of the regular
jokers in the room. strong definitely
has my vote for fantastic one-liners.
strong is also a great listener. she
loves the good story. and she's
usually taking mental notes on the
situation at hand. what she's let me
read of her journals is pretty
incredible. she knows how to express
herself. strong will one day be the
mastermind behind something
brilliant....and i'll run down the
streets screaming that i once knew her,
toothless, and pushing my shopping cart
full of everything.
long testimonials, and Christie's may
very well be the longest. To consider
her is to then become engaged in an
infinite loop, and unless care is taken
to edit one's self, one could keep
talking forever.
Christie will be in charge one day.
That kind of energy cannot but rise to
the top and lead us all. It is simply
in her nature to start revolutions and
end pointless wars. She will continue
to rise. Where so many of us are
cursed to rise and then fall, Christie
is one of the lucky ones; up and up and
up she'll goo. Watch her for as long
as you can, because before too long
she'll be a speck on the horizon,
moving at light speed until she's just
a single point of eternal light.
This may sound like a bit much to some
of you, but Christie knows, and so do
I. You'll see.
randomly showed up (OK, crashed) her
24th birthday party, and she hasn't
been able to get rid of us since. She's
smart and bright...a true delight...and
you just KNOW she isn't going to talk
shit about YOU. Not to mention the
fact that we're hair twins.
She cares about her friends more than
anyone around (and I dare you to
challenge that)! She brings me the
stars, reminds me to dream and lends a
reflection that is unparalleled. I
know that when the time comes,
Christie will be one to take care of
my children when their "Mommy" is away!
people i know to talk shit with. she
likes sweet wines and fast men. her
heart is as large as her brain is as
large as her smile. and if you sleep
in her bed, you won't be bitten by ANY
mosquitos.
