I've been wanting to post for a while, but I never get around to it.
I have to remeber to spend this last semester wisely, becuase if I don't, I fear I will curse myself for the rest of my life for not doing so. Not that this means that I have to remeber to get wasted all the time and stop doing school work completley, I just have to spend my time wisely.
Tonight, could've gone to super bowl thing at annunciation and gotten awseome free food. Declined invitation because I had to write a story which I hadn't started. This was silly, becuase the story is still barely started and it would have been much wiser to have gone and gotten free food and had fun.
My dad bought my sister a bass and oh man is it awseome. Thank god for fickle seventh grade interests, (in my sister's case, starting a band, which I wouldn't consider fickle if her or any of her friends were actually really into music, or if she were a litte bit older) becuase for now, it means that I have a bass that I can mess around with. I've been really into playing bass recently too, what good timing. AND I found out that in my studio there's this big thing that has all these settings and effects and stuff. There's a handheld equivalent to it, but that thing sucks, whereas this thing is very, very nice. I also found out that I can do lots of amazing cool stuff on my dad's 8 track that I never knew about.
Say, whatever happend to that "BC 8 track" that people were talking about putting money into. Did that ever happen? Did twofold put money into that? I sure hope not cuz that was forever ago and I ain't not neva seen no BC 8 Track.
WOWO it is late. Should I go to bed now and try to do the rest of this in school? Tough decisions, tough decisions.
I think if I could be friends with anyone, I'd be friends with conan o'brein. There's probably much cooler people than him, but man is he funny when you haven't watched his show in a while.
Bostone was last weekend. That shit was phat, by the by.
The Banned's first tour was 24 days. That is crazy. By the way, why does The Banned hate Cali so much? I never get a straight answer when I ask anyone.
These two guys that I sometimes work with are so crazy. They're on an off coke/crack/pot dealers, but like, INtensly. Some hilariously crazy stories they do have.
I have to make sure I do the following things by the end of senior year.
-read conrad's heart of darkness
-read bellow's sieze the day, only becuase my dad's been telling me to, like, forever.
-read tocqueville's democracy in america, which I have to do for school anyway, but might very well likely just sparknote becuase of time. must remeber not to sparknote, cuz it seems like a pretty good book that I should read
-see every single movie ever made
-keep up with all the crazy shit that goes down
- eat a vermonster with all the frodas. actually as long as its all guys it's alright. preferably frodas just cuz eating a vermonster is such a froda night thing to do
-get really stoned during school, cuz I've always wondered what that's like
-kill fr. o'konsky
-conquer world, save whales, end hunger, etc.
Oh yeah I thought this was kinda cool:
"But in the fear of admitting philosophers to power, becuase they are no longer to be had simple and earnest, but are made up of mixed elements; and in turning from them to passionate and less complex characters, who are by nature fitted for war rather than peace; and in the value set by them upon military stratagems and contrivances, and in waging of everlasting wars-this State will be for the most part peculiar"
or as sparknotes puts it: "They will be afraid to appoint wise people as rulers, choosing instead to be ruled by spirited but simple people who will be more inclined toward war than peace."
Plato wrote that, like a bagillion years ago. What an amazingly accurate guy.
