  • Write a letter to yourself in the future.
  • Buy something inexpensive as a symbol for your need to create, (new pen, a tea cup, journal). Use it everyday.
  • Draw your dinner.
  • Find a piece of poetry you respond to. Rewrite it and glue it into your journal.
  • Glue an envelope into your journal. For one week collect items you find on the street.
  • Expose yourself to a new artist, (go to a gallery, or in a book.) Write about what moves you about their work.
  • Find a photo of a person you do not know. Write a brief bio about them.

  • if you feel like you want out of the relationship, for god's sake, just tell her. don't carry it on to spare her feelings. because it doesn't.
  • do it quickly, and be polite.
  • no matter how casual the situation is, let her know if you're moving on to someone else. it'll be worse if she finds out some other way.
  • let her get mad, let her cry, and give her the space she needs to move on.
  • be respectful. unless she's keying your car and hanging dead fish in your curtains, you don't get to to talk shit.
  • don't avoid her when you see her somewhere afterwards. a friendly wave and a 'hey, how are you doing?' works wonders.
  • think about it...is it really a good idea to hook up with someone new near where she works or hangs out? just...no. don't do it.

if i were writing a story about betsy, these are the details i might include (based purely on supposition and perhaps my own imagination, haha....)

  • she has a uniform of straight-legged jeans and band shirts
  • she doesn't generally wear make-up, but when she does it seems like there's a reason. i'm not sure that it's a matter of insecurity, more like a sense of importance in the situation
  • the emotions of others can affect how she feels about a instance-positively or negatively. it's not really an adoption of others opinions, but rather an osmosis of their feelings and a sympathy for it
  • she seems more comfortable with guys, but if you know her well enough, you get to see a girly side
  • she's quiet when she's tired or has just woken up
