I've been in quite the Beck mood this past week. I don't know why, i just decided to dig out my old beck cds and take a listen. Odelay is just a classic and Mutations has grown on me. I can remember the first time i heard Mutations and hated it. I guess it was just that it was so different from Odelay ( Read more... )

Went to the dentist today. Found out i have to get some wisdom "removed" (my dentist said with a smile). I've been told its not a big deal and is relatively painless. Its kind of a shock after never having single cavity or braces, so i've only been for check ups and stuff. Oh well, whatever doesn't kill me (fingers crossed) will make me stronger ( Read more... )

Why does life have to be so hard? Its always too much, too fast. I can never catch up. I think part of the problem is in myself: I make my life this way. Why? I couldn't tell ya. School follows me home on the weekends and won't let go. Sunday might as well be just another day of the school week because all i do is work on homework or spend time ( Read more... )

So whats been happening in Matt's life lately? The same old nothing ( Read more... )
