Does anybody even do livejournal anymore?
Because I don't.
Worked Up So Sexual- The Faint "Old dancers always gag at what new talent seems to mean, smaller tits and younger limbs can cause a fit of rivalry"
The Shame- The Blood Brothers "I remember the day that I sold my smile to that nice couple who lost their first child, I threw in a set of sympathy, and a bucket of popcorn for the cemetary"
Sleigh Ride- Leroy Anderson
Idioteque- Radiohead "I'll laugh until my head comes off, I swallow till I burst, Until I burst, Until I.."
One Beat- Sleater-Kinney "Could you invent a world for me, I need to hear a symphony. If I'm to run the future You've got to let the old world go "
My Parents = Vacation in Mexico until friday.
How carefully they planned it that they would leave sunday and come back friday, leaving no nights where I don't have to sleep for school the next day.
Fortunately, I have no social life anyway, so I won't feel bad for having the opportunity to party and not taking it.
Is it just me, or is it really cool to listen to Ella Fitzgerald and all those classic jazz broads?
I love smiling and waving to old people, especially when they smile and wave back.
I love sneezing.
I love the following two magazines: Details and Interview.
Here are the books that I'm reading right now-----
The Year of Magical Thinking- Joan Didion. It's cool because it's Joan Didion.
The Tattoo Artist- I'm not sure who it's by, but I am enjoying it very much.
Breathing Underwater- Ugh, YA fiction that tries to get you to understand the viewpoint of a guy that hit his girlfriend.
You Know You Love Me- Yes, it's GossipGirl. Get over it.
Fugitives and Refugees- Chuck Palahniuk. It's pretty meh.
As Cool As I Am- Pete Fromm. It's kind of forgettable.
Smack- It's about british kids addicted to heroin or something. They haven't gotten addicted yet, where I am in the book.
Existentialism and Human Emotions- Jean-Paul Sartre. Because I'm filled with existential angst.
Here are the books that are sitting in my room waiting to be read----------
Everything is Illuminated- Jonathan Safran Foer. There's a movie made about this book that hasn't come out in theaters yet, so I'm reading the book before I go see the movie.
Less Than Zero- Bret Easton Ellis. This book is like, mandatory.
Veronica- Mary Gaitskill, because this book looks really cool from what it's about: models that do cool things
Angela's Ashes- Frank McCourt. I want to read this book because he has a new one that came out. And It's supposed to be the saddest book ever.
The Plague, by Albert Camus has been sitting on my bookshelf half-read. Poor citizens of that unnamed French town, I'm sorry that you're stuck in the middle of a plague and people are dying left and right. But I just can't get into that book right now.
I just coined a word: varietanical
I think I'm going to post this on myspace in addition to/instead of here on livejournal, just because I don't know. So people will actually read it?
Is there anything else that I want to say?
I need clothes. I need to withdraw $1000 from my bank account and go crazy.
I wish clothes fit me. Clothes don't fit me. My shoulders are too big for my frame. I'm too tall for shirts that will fit me around my "torso" (typing that word is weird) Because they end up just below my belly button.
I have the smallest feet of any guy that I know.
I was jubilant this afternoon because I got two of my bassoon reads to sound good instead of shitty.
I felt good in Youth Symphony this afternoon because I liked my sound. and I accidentally played one really hard part right, and nobody else that had it did, so Chris (The conductor) said "Really, good job, daniel" That made me feel good.
I went to my brother's hockey game at 2:30 and waited a half an hour in the lobby for sarah, because she was late. Then I talked to her and her mom about how I'm probably going to be an accountant even though I don't want to be. the told me not to be an accountant. If you're actually reading this, call 517.474.4217 and say this: pirate disaster. We talked about colleges and future careers and what we wanted the weather to be like where we moved and other people's relationships. We talked about a trip to france with a boy that it wouldn't be fun to not get along with by the time of the trip.
I'm going to see Harry Potter in IMAX Friday. I'm pretty happy about that.
I want Desperate Housewives to be on right now. I want George the creepy pharmacist to drop down dead. I want Andrew to be a more important figure on the show. I wish that he wasn't away at camp whatever not being able to try and break up George from his mother.
The AP packet for AP Physics is due tomorrow. I've done about 5 problems out of it. Slick, I know. Too bad nobody reading this will have any idea what it's about. Because nobody will be in my AP physics class.
This is from an AIM conversation----
ritafrybaby19: because i went to work on friday, and i forgot to wash it off because i had just woken up, and my boss saw it and asked me what it was, and i almost answered giraffe, she wasn't too happy with the grin i had on my face
I think I'm going to re-read The Catcher In The Rye. And underline everytime he says the word "Phony" or a variation on it.
I like getting books with marks on them noting certain passages, or notes on what is happening. It makes me think of the people who read them before me, and that means that there's sort of a connection between us. Even if I don't know who they are.
I like talking to Rita about anything/everything.
I'm going to bitch and moan about not having a boyfriend. It disappoints me that there is nobody that seems right. And just nobody at all. Que Lastima.
If I were the only person on earth for a day this is what I would do:
Steal clothes
Dance
Run through the streets naked
Feel lonely
try to fly a plane and crash
What if you knew you were never going to do what it is you always wanted to do?
What if everything you cared about was everything you couldn't do?
I like it when I can talk to people about things that I know almost nothing about.
Christmas music is heaven in my ears. It makes me feel good about everything.
White Duck Pants.
I wish that I was actually cool enough to read "Gravity's Rainbow" by Thomas Pynchon.
I really don't like how Amazon's text stats thing says that somebody in ninth grade should be able to read it. Because that's not true.
I wish I could read Ulysses and not feel overwhelmed.
I wish I could take Finnegans Wake seriously.
I wish I didn't try to read books that I'm not able to read just to impress people that don't care.
I really hope that I get an A in english, because if I don't, my 4.0 will be no more. And I will be too fucking sad that my chances of being a valedictorian will be no more.
