For Emma Timms, the love of my life

Yo, yo, yo allll yoouuuu sucka MC's ain't got nothin' on me. From my grades to my lines, you can't touch Lizzie G. I'm an athlete, so nerd's not inferred. fo-forget what you heard, I'm Lizzie Griffith. 

Yeah, so Emma wouldn't post anything, so I made her let me do it. 

So ... yeah. 

It's Halloween. And we're sitting together, collectively having not a single life between the two of us. 

Waddup, we're cute and we know it. 

Our awkward little trio

5 hours later ...... 

I didn't mean to wait, but it happened. Deal with it. 


So we had the greatest night ... We went trick-or-treating and stuff. Yeah, it was great. She was our mom. You know, since that's totally normal and everything.

I have no idea what to write. I told her I was going to post something on her blog, but I have no idea what to write. Screw life.  

When looking through our friendship on facebook for inspiration or something to write about, I found this ....


My dearest Emma,
It has recently come to my attention that I have a deep, burning passion inside of me that yearns for you. I realized that my creepy, yet loving, obsession with you is irrevocable. Your beautiful hair and your beautiful eyes just melt my soul. Your humor hurts my insides, but not in the way that hot ramen noodles do; it is a good hurt, one that I enjoy. I long for you and your friendship. I want you, Emma Timms. I want you day in and day out. I know that we will never be able to take advantage of our love for each other, but I still want you to know. I love you. I want you. I need you. 
Love always,
Lizzie Griffith♥

So she doesn't know that I'm going to do this, but it's happening it anyway. 

10 Reasons Why I love Emma Malin Timms, by Lizzie Griffith

1. She's hilarious. I don't think I've ever had a single conversation with Emma that did not leave me dying of laughter. Even when I'm pissed off and ready to set someone on fire, she can always make me laugh and get my mind off of it. 
2. She's beautiful. Inside and out. But really. She doesn't even realize how beautiful she truly is. 
3. She's amazing. It doesn't matter what's going on in my life or what type of crap is going down, she's always there for me to make me feel better. 
4. She's one of my best friends. I think this one is pretty self-explanatory ... 
5. She's my girlfriend. We're lesbians. That's pretty much it. 
6. She's a sweetheart. I don't even know how she does it. She always puts everyone else first and never complains about it. 
7. She's fun. I've never been bored for a single second that I've spent with Emma. I don't think it's even possible. Really. It's not. 
8. She's creative. She's an amazing artist, if you didn't already know. I love creativity. Probably because I have none. 
9. She has the best stories. I'm not even sure how it's possible, but her stories are always interesting and funny. 
10. Because she's just Emma Malin Timms. If you don't know why this is awesome ... well, you should probably just find out. 

Just for the record, while I was texting someone about this, I accidentally texted Emma about it instead of the person I meant to. Awk. My life, right there for all to see. 

I love Emma too much for words. I'm pretty sure people would think we were lesbian for each other if they didn't know better. (We're not, by the way.)

By the way, I'm Lizzie Griffith, the Lizziesapien, apparently the most annoying motivator in the world, according to Emma. Whatever you choose to call me, I can deal. 

I think I've pretty much ran out of creative juice for one night. Okay, that is all. I will hack her blog at some other point to profess my love for her again. Just wait, it's coming. 

So Emma, this is for you, my dear. I love you more than you understand.

Happy Hallowiener. And no-shave November begins tomorrow. Just a friendly reminder.

A Lack of Everything

As I'm sure most of you who read regularly have noticed my absence.... again. I have recently been diagnosed with an extremely severe case of Laziness and Procrastinate Personality Disorder. These are self-diagnoses of course, but nonetheless, quite accurate. I've found myself suffocated by a lack of almost everything. Here's a list for you.

1. Lack of Motivation.
I feel like (excuse my French!) a fucking broken record. I know I don't curse much on here, to avoid offending any readers, but this "lack of" bugs me the most, and I feel like I complain about it all the time. I've been suffering from every kind of mental block you can think of, from my art to my social life, and it's driving me bonkers. Today, after doing a half-assed cleaning job on the inside of my car (pardon me, again) and then getting a mani-pedi, I spent the entire rest of the day watching every episode of The Office on Netflix from season 1. I only got to the end of season 2. Talk about productive. Somebody, please help me?

2. Lack of Inspiration.
Just about as bad as the first, also kind of goes under the same category as the first, but I'll separate it merely for the sake of making my list a little longer. My "art life" pretty much no longer exist, which is pretty sad. Sad meaning pathetic, because I'm totally capable of creating art like I used to. But, because of combined lack of motivation (hello no. 1) and inspiration, my sketchbook is collecting dust. Not helpful when I'm currently applying for a scholarship to take college art classes for five weeks at MTSU and they kind of need to see a sketchbook during the portfolio review portion of the interview, and I have nothing current to show. Did I say pathetic? So, I bought a new sketchbook last weekend and as I was trying to throw down some kick sketches, I realized how much ability and skill-work I lost in my months of laziness. It's totally biting me in the butt. Now I have to practice, practice, practice.

3. Lack of boyfriend.
Holy smokes, I'm talking about my love life. I really try not to do this on the internet too much, especially when I could be writing to strangers (but I think I know most of my readers). This is just a touchy subject. Those who do know me know that my boyfriend and I broke up during the summer, not because we wanted to, but because he has a military father like me and had to leave. Recently, we've lost contact. For good? I don't know. But it's for the time being. At first, it made me sad. But after thinking about it, I've realized that it's a good opportunity to start dating again without feeling guilty. I'm the kind of girl who loves having a boyfriend, unlike some girls who just complain about how much drama they come with. No, the guys that I've dated, which haven't been very many so far, relieve drama for me. It's comforting. I'm not saying I'm the girl who HAS to have a boyfriend, I just enjoy having one. So if you know anyone who's single... Just kidding. But seriously. But just kidding.

4. Lack of computer.
This has happened before, and I'm using it as an excuse for my inability to post on my blog regularly... My personal laptop is down again, and I don't know why. The internet just refuses to open. Cool, huh? Anyway, so I have limited access to all of my documents and photos and stuff, so it's kind of hard to post from other computers in my house. #firstworldprobs 

So anyway, I know this is a long post, but I thought I owed you guys some explanation. As for my art thing, I'm actually trying to find some motivation to start a new project. I love landscapes and I took some great photos of my aunt's backyard while I was out of town. Not that anyone knew that I was out of town because I'm too freaking lazy to log on here and tell you guys. Oh well, sue me.

My aunt's backyard and possible painting project.

I am actually going to try to work out an actual schedule for my posts. I'm thinking either twice a week or once a week. My life isn't very interesting so I don't want to bore anyone with unnecessary posts about what I ate for breakfast.

Also, please keep visiting Speak Now's website at wespeaknow.org. My next post won't be until November, but other posts are rolling in frequently, so there's a lot to check out!

Last but not least, I would reeeeaaaallllyyyy like some feedback. I don't get any responses from my readers, if I have any. If you don't have a BlogSpot or Google account, and you can't post comments directly on my blog, e-mail me at starvingartblog@yahoo.com or comment on my Facebook page! I would really like to hear from someone, anyone who has suggestions, post ideas and topics, or if you just have any questions. Or you just want to say hey. That'd be nice too.

I'm off all week because my school is weird and has a week off for Fall Break. So, I'll be sleeping in suckers! 

Happy Tuesday!

(shout out to Lizziesapien for being the best motivator evarrr)
