Obsessions..

I realized the other day that i am a rather obsessive person.

In Year 8 I became aquainted with Andy Warhol and in the space of a few days he was god

I immediately bought three books, read the philosophy of Andy Warhol, flew to Melbourne to go to the Guggenheim exhibition so that i could lay my eyes on just one piece of his work

In Year 9 I was in the library for english and after deciding that i hated reading i picked up the Picture of Dorian Gray, not knowing what it was or who Oscar Wilde was and since i've read it more times than i have fingers to show

Year 10 Was the year for Kurt Cobain. When i was bored in class i'd draw love hearts with our names inside and draw his face over and over again when i was meant to be doing maths work.

My maths book has more Kurt Cobain drawings than it does equations. I read all the books on him in the world and saved all the pictures of him from google. I bought a wig like Courtney Love and threw it out when i found out he only dated red heads before meeting her.

Year 11 I felt like enriching my life with poetry beacuse i decided that i would seem really intelligent so i read a book of Sylvia Plath poetry and fell in love. It takes more muscles to frown than smile. I take my hat off to you Sylvia Plath

and now Year 12 i find myself obsessed with Albert Camus, he is insightful and hes part french

i die.
