Welcome, welcome.

You have found your self here: on Ellie's semi-kept-up blog.

Lots of tidbits and nothingness reside here. Don't feel obligated to read anything.

If you're interested, here's a random blog I wrote (+photos) while traveling in New Zealand in 2012: newsieland.wordpress.com

With love,

Ellie

Advice From The Experts

I asked for some college advice from Will and Audge today...

Audrey: "Don't be afraid to tell people no. Like if your roommate makes a mess in your room, just say 'Hey, I keep my side clean'. Or if a guy asks you out, just say no. Don't tell him 'we can just be friends'. Say no."

Will: "Thou shouldest not smoke pot, and thou shall keep thy dorm room clean."

So characteristic of them.

Three Days

Three days of home sweet home. Time passes far too quickly; my mommy tells me that often. Perhaps it's okay that I feel ripped in two. Half is quite excited to step off the hardwood floor I've played on, ate on, slept on, most of my life and explore new nooks and crannies. The other half clings to the floorboards--like a child with a fever, the coolness is soothing, the boards strong and grounding, the hum of life buzzing through the woodwork puts the mind at ease.

Pain. Lots of pain.

Does reading your own writing always produce as much flinching and gritting of teeth as this? Oye. It's too much.

Will

The sun, sky and clouds concurred the other evening, and produced a sunset as I have never seen.

Will and I took the opportunity to take a walk. The more we walked, the greater in depth we talked, and the more I realized my little brother is no fool. What I once thought was little boy with endless energy and questions, is now an intelligent young man, with the capacity to think, feel, and express far greater than I ever thought one his age could.

When I spoke of the world we lived in today, he answered me as one who has examined it, pondered over it, and compared it to other ways of life.

Every insight he had tugged more questions from me, This couldn't be my little brother. He couldn't be this wise so young... could he? When did this happen?


Not to mention the compassion that springs up in his speech when I least expect it. He shoots a magpie, says he thinks it'll be fun. Immediately after shooting it he feels awful; doesn't ever do it again.

The kid has a future, and for the first time in his lifetime, I'm starting to realize just how bright it's gonna be.
