I forgot how much I enjoy The Boats.
I have a lot of respect for people that actually use Tumblr for actual blogging as it was originally intended for. Sometimes I think about blogging there and I remember how shitty of a person I am and remember why I blog here instead.
Speaking of which, this girl I sort of know through mutual friends goes to Columbia in Chicago and majors in photography, and I remember her "photography" being horrendous in high school and was wondering if she had improved at all (LOL) so I lurked her Facebook and found the link to her Flickr account. Prepare yourselves.
I'm too lazy to do a cut here so I'll just provide links:
WHAT
WHY ARE YOU SERIOUS -- The caption to this one, by the way, is "light is such a sweet thing when you know how to capture it right." ....Too bad you don't.
WHY IS THIS YOUR MAJOR -- Why anyone would ever upload this to Flickr, I still don't know.
WHY HAS NO ONE TOLD YOU YOU'RE BAD -- You guys have no idea how hard I laughed when I saw this.
THE WORST OF THE WORST -- I'm at a loss for words. It must suck being awful at something you want to pursue as a career.
Anyyyyyyyyhoo, now that I got that out of my system, I went to Castevet / Stay Ahead Of The Weather on Friday and it was siq. The kid standing next to me gave me a cigarette (and who am I to deny free shit, honestly?) so I took it and I literally (this is not going to be funny for anyone else but me) held it for exactly three seconds, wondering when I should ask for a lighter, when some RANDOM, I'm serious when I say this, some fucking random, like, three rows back to the left comes out of NOWHERE and hands me a lighter. It was so funny to me, I don't know. It was like, in cartoons when someone slowly enters the frame from the side? Okay, here's a perfect example. Exactly like that...kind of. A little.
Anyway, that kid told me his life story and he was kind of an idiot because I don't think he knew what the word "ambient" meant andddddddd he ended up getting kicked out apparently. He interrupted one of Castevet's songs (because he, like, thought he was at a Converge show or something and was too busy crowd surfing and moshing) and some guy was like, "Would the kid in the v neck and hat please stop being a douchebag? You know who you are." Good times.
I'm going to update again at like two in the morning. I know it.
