vialactea 1. What's the nicest and naughtiest thing you've done?
Naughtiest - I shoplifted a My Little Pony from K-Mart and a necklace from Urban Outfitters once. I'm a good kid. Really.
Nicest - In the recent past, I think I've (practically) written a friend's midterm or final essay. I had my own finals to study for, but I went out of my way to help him anyway. He hadn't read any of the books he was supposed to read, didn't do any research, and the entire thing was due in a couple of hours (or was it the next day?). He ended up with a B+.
2. How's the collegiate life?
I think a lot of people do whatever they can just to get by -- meaning they don't go to class, don't do the readings, write papers the night before, and cram for the final/midterm at the very last minute. When the weekend (starting on Thursday) rolls around, they drink themselves into oblivion, quite possibly do something stupid/regrettable, and most likely won't remember the night before. Weed is big on campus/IV as well.
Um. Exercising/healthy-active-lifestyle type stuff is popular too.
And then there are the people who study hard, get A's, and still do all of the above.
Not that all of it applies to me (not all of the time, anyway). It varies from person to person, but that's typical Santa Barbara life. H-e-d-o-n-i-s-t-i-c. That's the word for it.
Of course there are people who don't partake in any of the above at all. But they are in the minority and have probably played with the thought of transferring (if they haven't already transferred). I admit, I've even thought about it this past summer. I know too many people who want to transfer (even though those people are statistically in the minority).
3. Tell me about the last time you were really happy. (:
This is a hard question, but it probably involved substances. In that case, it wasn't real.
4. Name three albums that you can't live without and why.
It's so corny/lame, but I always go back to AFI - Black Sails in the Sunset when I'm feeling down (even though I don't really listen to them anymore). There was a time in my life when I'd say that they were my reason for living... don't tell anybody.
Other than that, I can't imagine a world without the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. Love love love Karen O. Maybe I'll come back to this question later. I like a lot of bands. I love very few.
5. What is the one song you wish someone had written for/about you?
How sad is it that I've totally thought about this before?
Bright Eyes - "Sunrise, Sunset"
Fevers & Mirrors is really the only Bright Eyes album I can stand to be quite honest.
