(no subject)
Well. Life is sort of slowing down. A peaceful night at home, but I'm sort of bored. Who would have thought it? Not me. Sam called me tonight to tell me he was going to see the *new spongebob movie* and that he assumed I already had or was currently seeing it. He was wrong. I haven't seen it. I probably won't for a few weeks. Maybe I'll go during finals week.
Man, you know what's a beautiful song? "Do you realize??" by the Flaming Lips. It's friggin' amazing. I just heard it a few days ago, and apparently I'm really out of the loop because it's in a commercial or something like that. As if you weren't expecting it, here are the lyrics:
Do you realize
That you have the most beautiful face?
Do you realize
We're floating in space?
Do you realize
That happiness makes you cry?
Do you realize
That everyone you know someday will die?
And instead of saying all of your good-byes
Let them know you realize that life goes fast
It's hard to make the good things last
You realize the sun doesn't go down
It's just an illusion caused by the world spinning round
Then it repeats some stuff. It's truly a great song. Speaking of great music, the new Gwen Stefani comes out next week. Thank goodness.
So last week I was sitting in church, and realized that I don't really like it. I don't have a problem with believing in a God. But to think we have it all figured out, that we can decide one religion is more true than all the others seems not only absurd, but rather arrogant. I don't mean to cut anyone down. For some reason I've been really down on christians lately, and I don't really know why. I got a whole group of them helping me with a food drive tomorrow. Lately I've caught myself thinking things like "yeah, they're participating, but it's not like their doing all the organizing." As if to say I'm better because I'm supposedly doing more. But I don't want to think that. I don't want to think that at all. We all do shit in our own ways (well, ideally we do). Simply because I don't see something doesn't mean it's not there. But on the other hand I want to scream at people who claim to love each other but then don't do shit. Ahh. I don't know.
**I got an update: the Spongebob movie is hilarious claims Sam. "I was laughing the whole time." I'm not going to lie, he's got me sold**
Someone needs to knock me off my high horse. Fuck. Sorry. I hate when people complain all the time.
I'm just going to go to bed. Tomorrow's a new day. And I get to do some pretty fun and awesome stuff with it.
Man, I can't wait to see everyone who I get to over thanksgiving break.
Peace. Rock steady. York.
