A blog cultivated by Annabelle Barrow & she's kind of embarrassed about it, but not enough to stop posting and delete the thing.

style not sentiment


A thing that keeps happening to me is that I forget which direction is up and down when I'm using scrolling on my laptop. Don't think it's early dementia. Pretty sure it's because a couple of days out of the week I use a macbook at work. For some reason, the almighty apple decided that the opposite way to scroll is better. It's pretty annoying and I can't imagine that there is a good reason for this except to be finicky. I should probably google how to change it because it's annoyed me enough to want to post about it.

We watched an Italian Futurist movie in AH and at the end our prof asked what we thought, of course, and I was expecting the question so throughout the movie I kept telling myself, "What is happening because you know he's going to want to talk about it after." As a whole, I found the movie hard to follow and I was surprised to discover that my classmates totally got it and they thought it was sad and profound and stuff. I thought the main character was a closet lesbian that has a violent relationship with a man and then she has a baby and she almost throws her baby over a bridge, but she doesn't and then she's homeless and this nice old man with a hella nice mustache shares his bread with her and she's like nah, but then he shares half a slice of pepperoni with her and she's like cool I can dig it and then she beats her baby's father with a brick. Also, cats. There were some cats just hanging out.

I guess you had to be there.
