michelle, thuy, lilie and I went ice-skating for lilie's birthday I remember connie and I use to go ice-skating so much. my feet were always feeling pinched after and then we'd go and eat fries swimming in gravy. lilie's birthday is really tomorrow but we celebrated it today, she looked so tired after skating, we ended up at michelle's house, playing with her bunny rabbit "pocky" and talking. I gave her Steriogram's cd. "shmack"...m. bits of rap and rock, indie? eh? very interesting combination. Diana's birthday is tomorrow too. so is a chemistry test, an english quiz and world history quiz. m.

yesterday diana called from austin. she went to acl. her sister, Grace bought her Saturday's ticket for her birthday. and oh man. she called me and asked me if I wanted anything. >_< so nice. I told her to get me a copy of the lineup. and ahhh. I think I'm going to get her the "perks" for her birthday. even though it's really me who likes the book. but she'll like it. hopefully. even though she didn't like catcher in the rye. but well. I don't know. I want a copy for myself I guess. but ahhh. I don't know what else to give her. mmm.

my library book wasn't overdue. I haven't even opened it. m. it's sequel, "vote for larry" m. I think if I start it I won't be able to stop until it's over.

while I was buying lilie's Steriogram cd. shmack. haha. I love saying that. shmack. shmack. shmack. m. the album art was pretty cool too. everything made out of yarn. a little electric guitar made out of yellow yarn and white stitches. with squares spelling out new zealand decorating the body. linked to a black yarn amp saying steriogram on it instead of marshall...m. and the cords were spelling out 'shmack' and the little red yarn drums on the backside of the album. I don't know. it was original.

I listened to some other albums. dabbled in some of them was more like it. circuit city only lets you hear clips. the garden state soundtrack wasn't as great. I thought death cab was on it. I guess not? but one that really blew me away was the eternal sunshine of a spotless...mind? the sticker on it made me smile. went along something like where elijah wood wasn't frodo and jim carrey isn't funny...but it was a great movie. blah blah blah. I don't know. made me smile. that's the point anyways right?

I'm asking too many rhetorical questions. the soundtrack just had a great ahhh. I don't know. it was so unmodern. it wasn't polished it wasn't...now. it didn't feel like now. it felt like the person singing and playing guitar was in a basement or attic and everyone in the world dispppeared. no one's listening but that person is still going on. still singing and playing. it didn't matter. nothing mattered. the song had to go on.

of course...until the 30 second clip ended.
on saturday we kidnapped orch dork fishies and we dressed them uip and had a costume contest. m. they tried duck-taping them to the wall. people volunteered? weird. and we had a blue tarp thing and an officer poured soap she was the soap fairy. and then another officer was hosing it with water...he didn't have a nick-name. I don't think.

basically we had a little slip & slide thing. and we were in clothes...arrr. like...clothes clothes. tee shirts, jeans, jackets...and of course no wanted to go first.

then someone volunteered and went. I watched at the sidelines thinking...oh wow. hm. I feel sorry for whoever's going to take these wet teenagers home. mmm.

then robbie comes and picks me up and his partner in crime...somebody...goes and throws me into the slip & slide...so after that. my cons got wet. along with everything else. but danielle and victoria got the same surprise and we were mmm. wet? and sort of surprised and a bit annoyed and a bit...happy? weird.

hm. robbie's in my world history class. we found out that he knew my brother. it's fun.

after kidnapping and slip & sliding from 5:50 am to 10 am...went back home. finding out mom ordered kroger fried chicken. it was...alright. I like popeyes better. m. kroger...went on sale. so...basically we just had to get fried chicken. oh well. wasted calories.

I was so...tired. after that. so I fell asleep on my bed with my hair still up. half-thinking...my arm is suppose to pull the hair tie out but then my arm wasn't moving. or it didn't want to move. or it was trying to pretend to be a rock...

m.

after being almost dead for two hours.

I'm so tired
I can't even talk to myself today
I fell asleep
and woke up bringing along shuffled dreams
truncated thoughts follow my stuttering lead
someone called me but I can't think who might
tomorrow's someone's birthday and I'm not ready
I slept through a twelve song album
this is how I count the hours and minutes
it's not that different
I have letters to write
and sentences to finish with possible friends
I can hear the ceiling fan and I can stare
at the circles they make
an endless responsibilty they recreate
the blinds have turned away the sun's rays
and it's going to be like that for awhile
I've lived here for what seems forever
but I hardly know it
I've tried to cover the weaker parts
but white walls stand out too much
it's still saturday but I can feel sunday cutting in
so I'll have tongue in cheek
and pretend I have eternity
don't wake me up I'm still asleep.
