Back!


I am back from Boston, and I had such a great time. Not even the one hundred degree weather could spoil it for us. (Although having a sweaty back and wet pants on a consistent basis nearly did) We did many things; visited the penguins at the aquarium, toured Boston on the Duck Tour with the Great Garibaldi, met some crazy Korean War Veterans, rode (?? is that the word) on the ferry, and visited the USS Constitution among other things, mainly shopping and visiting such corporate monsters as Starbucks and Walgreens.

There were some intense photos taken, of which I'll probably upload laters.

Hey Kids, Rock and Roll

Hey kids, rock and roll, nobody tells u where to go baby. - REM, in the ridicularsly depressing "Drive".

I'm really enjoying the Importance of Being Earnest right now. It's actually really funny. See, I have always been that really nerdy kid who thought humor for previous centuries was funny. Like, Shakespeare- I laughed out loud while reading A Midsummer's Night... and I'm sorry DC Berman, but I wasn't trying too hard.

I'm going to BeanTown soon, and I'm very excited.

Other than that, nothing is really new with my life. Which is a good thing, really, since I'm content where I am at.

I just hope I feel better in the coming weeks. IDK...i'm just still really tired, and my stomach will feel good one day, then the next day it isn't...and I just don't want to get sick

invincible

"don't be afraid what your mind conceals, you should make a stand. stand up for what you believe"

ok, invincible might be corny. but i really like that lyric. don't be afraid what your mind conceals. that's like the ultimate artist's issue. not to be afraid of letting themselves go, etc.

whatevs whatevs

two sad arsed songs and their videos that freak me out

rows of houses
all bearing down on me
i can feel death
blue hands touching me
all these things into position
all these things will one day swallow whole
and fade out again

this machine will not communicate these thoughts
and the strain i am under
be a world child form a circle
before we all go under
and fade out again

cracked eggs
dead birds
scream as they fight for life
i can feel death
can see it's beady eyes
all these things into position
all these things we'll one day swallow whole
and fade out again

immerse your soul in love




there's a bluebird at the window
I can hear the songs he sings
all the jewels in heaven
they don't look the same to me
I just wade the tides that turn
Though I learn to leave the past behind

It's only lies that I'm living
It's only tears that I'm crying
It's only you that I'm losing
Guess I'm doing fine

All the battlements are empty
And the moon is laying low
Yellow roses in the graveyard
Got no time to watch them grow

Now I bade a friend farewell,
I can do whatever pleases me

it's only lies that i'm living
it's only tears that i'm crying
It's only you that I'm losing, guess I'm doing fine.

press my face up to the window
see how warm it is inside
see the things that i've been missing
missing all this time

Part Three of My Favorite Albums

nintendo wii

Ok, got a Wii yesterday.

I KICK ASS.

Seriously.

I have always liked video games, but was used to the fact that I could never be better than my brothers or my cousins who consistently played N64, then of course xbox 360, etc. Of course, I do remember beating Mike's ass in Mortal Kombat which was a ton of fun for a six year old. But last night, when we plugged in the Wii, I completely surprised myself.

Using my sporty left hand as the dominant one, I never lost a game of Wii boxing. I played for one entire sweaty hour. My BO was disgusting by the time I was done. I was a CAGE FIGHTER, threatening my opponent's until the words KNOCK OUT!!! appeared on the screen. Then I just rubbed it in their sweaty, bleeding faces.

I am an animal. I am possibly the greatest Wii Boxer. My brother was laughing at me, because prior to boxing we played golf and I wasn't that great at that (but in real life, I could probably kick his ass in golf).

Bow down to me

Way To Ruin My Studying Time For Finals, Sopranos

For the last two days, I have been racking my brain, back and forth back and forth- wtf was up with the finale? TEN SECONDS OF SILENCE?????? DID IT HAVE A POINT? Unlike others, I believe the finale was brilliant and it was cool and stuff, but I just don't know what to think. did he die? was he shot? Was the purpose of the last scene just to describe to us that paranoid life goes on for Tony with his nuclear family??? BUT THEN WHAT WOULD BE THE PURPOSE OF A TEN SECOND BLACK OUT???

IMO, Tony is dead.


For two minutes.

Then IMO, Tony is still alive.

Then Melfi comes in and shoots up the diner and I know I'm just going crazy.

HOW TO SHIT BRICKS



I shat myself at least three times.

A Season Of Fulfillment?

Could it be that this summer has potential to be the greatest ever? A job, giving me money to indulge my clothing and shoe wear needs. A shit load of ITunes music needing to be bought. A huge stack of books. A HUGE STACK OF BOOKS.
See, last summer, I said to myself, "Hey, let's read a ton of books this summer and be cool". That didn't happen.

But- this summer is different. During the year I was an AP student, and spent much time ruminating over passages from Thomas Paine's works and Ben Franklin's autobiography. Now it is the summer. And after finals this week, I will begin my quest for literary fulfillment as I attempt to grow all the hair back that I had lost from stress.

MY QUEST

1. American Psycho- Ok ok, I finished this book so technically my quest is already underway.

2. Sense and Sensibility- Because there is nothing better than reading a classic novel after seeing the movie countless times, thus using Kate Winslet and Hugh Grant as the characters in your mind's eye.

3. Persuasion- Yiz, it has been sitting on my dresser for a year now. It shall be read.

4. Dubliners- I started this one already. James Joyceeee.

4. Fires In The Dark- Holocaust lit

5. Rob Roy- I am really excited for this one. There's a guy with a kilt on the cover! Oh my God, I can't wait.

6. celine's biography- This is a controversial one!! Celine was such a freak! But I love the Claudette Novels!

7. Crash by JG Ballard- Crazy, but it shall be read. It shall.

8. Brideshead Revisted- Because I like British people.

9. A Confederacy of Dunces- It is time to revisit the madness and the brilliance.



And that is all I have for now.



Look at me, I'm David Byrne and I am really really hot ::laura gets flustered and confused at this recent revelation::

I Have To Return Some Video Tapes; An American Psycho Book Review

He lives in the American Gardens Building on W. 81st Street on the 11th floor. His name is Patrick Bateman. He's 27 years old. He believes in taking care of himself and a balanced diet and rigorous exercise routine. In the morning if his face is a little puffy he'll put on an ice pack while doing stomach crunches. He can do 1000 now. After he removes the ice pack he uses a deep pore cleanser lotion. In the shower he uses a water activated gel cleanser, then a honey almond body scrub, and on the face an exfoliating gel scrub. Then he applies an herb-mint facial mask which he leave on for 10 minutes while he prepares the rest of his routine. He always use an after shave lotion with little or no alcohol, because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older. Then moisturizer, then an anti-aging eye balm followed by a final moisturizing protective lotion.



American Psycho is an epic American tale of Reaganism, the 1980's, and Yuppies. So epic, in fact, Patrick Bateman is kind of like Paul Bunyan. But anyway, "I can only get these sheets in Santa Fe. Are you trying to say "Bleach-ee?"

I find American Psycho to be a scathing satire of the self-interested world of Wall Street, and "I don't think we should see each other anymore." Critics, "just cool it with the pretentious remarks". Even though it may be difficult to read through all those violent scenes, "I can get you a lime" and it's worth it in the end.

Which One of You Bitches Wants to Dance?

Hello there.

Today was prom. I didn't go. Instead I went shopping. I am only going to write in stilted sentences. Like Hemingway. Tomorrow is the baby party. I will make my cousins enter a baby race. Catherine will win.

Boston is soon! I'm going to lose my mind in miles of Irish smiles.

I want to be in a dance off. I'd win.

Can you tell I'm faking it?
But I want to be myself
A counterfit disposition
Can't be good for my health
So many different faces
Depending on the different phases
My personality changes
I'm a chameleon
There's more then one dimension
I can fool you and attract attention
Camouflage my nature
Let me demonstrate...

Makeup's all off
Who am I?
Magic's in the makeup
Who am I?

If you bore me then I'm comfortable
If you interest me I'm scared
My attraction paralyses me
No courage to show my true colors that exist
But I want to be the real thing
But if you catch my eye can't be authentic
The ones I loath are the one's that know me the best

My makeup's all off
Who am I?
The magic's in the makeup
Who am I?

The makeup's all off
Who am I?
If the magic's in the make up
Then who am I?
Magic's in the makeup
But I want to be the real thing
But the magic's in the makeup
And I want to be the real thing

My makeup's all off
Who am I?

Falling In Love With Russell Brand

Who is this slightly weasley creature with funny Victorian/goth clothing and an outstanding command of the English language? It is Russell Brand, my fellow Americans. And after getting over the initial fear of the man, I think he is one of the funniest and hottest ppl on Earth.

It's kind of sad, that every single female falls in love with this somewhat notorious womanizer.

But look at the statistics.

1) He's hot- Yeah, the hair is weird, but Russell Brand is hot in this really campy way.
2) His dress sense- It's different, it attracts attention, etc. Girls love it.
3) He is a funny one, and he is very clever and expresses himself well.
3) Did I mention he's fit??????
