When in doubt…find a good place to ramble, here I am wordpress!
A good update: I’ve decided on a switch of routine. A vast schedule change consisting of no napping directly after work and staying up until my meaningless english class begins at 6:00 on Mondays. Going to bed at a decent hour is not something I have done since freshman year of high school. From late night phone calls which has now turned into late night partying, lets just say I am not reaching full potential at work due to sleep deprivation. So what to do to stay awake? Blog my ass off. Livejournal is old and boring and only a site to recall memories from (some very much so missed and some I wouldn’t mind ever reading again.) This all leaves me here…to bore or to entertain.
So my mid-October mind has been preparing for the most wonderful time of the year. Yeah, so I like Christmas. I’m not going to lie, I might not be in such a mood if it was not for Arcade Fire’s Tunnels jump starting it. I mean Christmas is not even all that it covers, I am talking true happiness for Autumn arriving. Wonderful song/lyrics.
“And if the snow buries my, my neighborhood. And if my parents are crying then I’ll dig a tunnel from my window to yours, yeah a tunnel from my window to yours. You climb out the chimney and meet me in the middle, the middle of town. And since there’s no one else around, we let our hair grow long and forget all we used to know, then our skin gets thicker from living out in the snow. You change all the lead sleepin’ in my head, as the day grows dim I hear you sing a golden hymn. Then we tried to name our babies, but we forgot all the names that, the names we used to know. But sometimes, we remember our bedrooms, and our parent’s bedrooms, and the bedrooms of our friends. Then we think of our parents, well what ever happened to them?! You change all the lead sleepin’ in my head to gold, as the day grows dim, I hear you sing a golden hymn, the song I’ve been trying to say. Purify the colors, purify my mind. Purify the colors, purify my mind, and spread the ashes of the colors over this heart of mine!”
Enough of the nonsense and some opinions that might matter to you or not…
A good read: Rules of Attraction.
Just finished reading it a week ago. Written from multiple perspectives leaving you unknowing, I like it. It was a pretty good book to movie translation minus some minor details. Not as emotional as the movie made it out to be, but filled with beautiful writing and a bunch of fucked up college students. Who could complain?
A good listen: Miike Snow.
Who knew a random Swedish band with a first time release this year could catch my eye? They’ve got a great sound…check it out.
A good laugh: It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia, Little Britain.
Always sunny provides me with a consistent 30 minute long laugh every time I watch it. If you keep up and want to share favorites..here is mine..”The Gang Gives Back” you know..the episode where the gang is forced to volunteer to be coaches for youth basketball teams. I only think of one image: A fat, Asian, sandle-wearing kid running laps with a pepsi.
Little Britain (BBC comedy show) is full of laughs too. Basically, a bunch of fat ugly dudes posing as women saying awful and rude scripts. Filled with hilarious skits, my favorite being the fat fighters. I know I am posting video after video but I promise this is the last one!
Thanks for the read!
