(please excuse the mess...maybe some broken links, grammatical errors, stupid sentences here and there...this is all very new! and of course only works in IE)

things that rock harder than sliced bread:
1. Fugazi's "Argument" (woah. hot shyte)
2. Lush products apparently banned from being sold in the US due to the fresh ingredients in their stuff. they have expiration dates. Good thing my friend distracted me with some chocolates to prevent me from chowing down on their soap. (hoo-ray to friends who bring stuff from overseas)
3. boys who wear leather newsboy hats
4. ralph ralph ralph ralph. . .
5. other music. I'm sorry if you think it is a hipster store but good CDs that are usually $12 or $13. yeaaaaah. and the matador videos on the top shelf collecting dust.
6. dplan and death cab tour? (wowza)


To update on my departure December 17th I arrived home to immediately fall into a deep and undisturbed sleep for the next 2 days. Sleeping so much that my parents were deeply concerned and approached me with pamphlets and hotline numbers regarding my serious illness...NAH NAH hahaha. no no seriously, they just asked me why I was sleeping a lot which is sort of odd considering the fact that I NEEDED the rest after hardcore indulging in various vices and sins of the world at school...OH HA HA HA NAHNAH. I am seriously my best audience.

I stopped by my friend's penthouse place in NYC and it is seriously the most gorgeous thing I have seen in a while that I physically felt sick as I looked over the shiny wooden floors and spacious rooms and bigbig windows and that stupid spiral staircase and her stupid view over the entire city. And then I cried because she showed me her several pairs of nm70 sneakers she got supercheap at their sample sales. I egged her on to bring me to the next one but godforbid I've chosen to go to the wrong school and will probably not be here for it. (HI SARWAT! remember: we are the o-r-i-g-i-n-a-l indie rockers haha)

I also scored myself an internship for the summer where I only hope to score free CDs and free entrance to shows. I want nothing more. Now on to the search for something that pays.

why won't anyone get me this morrissey cd? sure he whines and complains and will probably die alone but really I think people are going out of their way to prevent me from getting it.

I've also been watching a lot of the Independent Film Channel to ween myself off of such school regulars as the Food Network and MTV. So far I have watched: SLC Punk, Loss of Sexual Innocence, The Last Cigarette (short film), Hamlet (with Ethan Hawke). Also the Metro channel is excellent.

Two incidents so far give me good reason to believe that my dad is the most IRRATIONAL man on the planet. see what policy and management teaches you? that your dad is irrational? that's like the worst thing in the world.

I've lost my appetite since being home. Big time. By observing my behavior I've noticed I no longer wake up because I am hungry. The first few things I do is brush my teeth and watch TV. I don't hit the kitchen till 3 or 4 hours later.

So now I'm going to go for a bit and enjoy my break and some normal people company and watch LOADS of movies and read TUBS of books. I'm going to catch that Monsters, Inc movie now with the outtakes. I've waited this long - that's how hardcore I am. heh.

P.S. really, nothing is better than sliced bread.
