Options

You are at the apex of your life. You can plan for the future but you don't have to stick to what you said yesterday. Today you may be an aspiring scientist. Tomorrow you are the next Tom Brokaw. There is no limitations. But grasp on to each moment of this period. Because soon you're never coming back.

Good luck.

What???

I am LOL-ing right now that my school forces us to read and analyze a book that starred Alan Arkin as the main character.

Veterans

So I was at work today and a man came in and he wore a shirt saying "VIETNAM veteran" with an American flag, an old hat stating his division and pins with other veteran paraphernalia, and one of those ubiquitous "Livestrong" bracelets but instead saying "I support our troops". As I thought about this, I questioned: what does this guy expect from doing this? Does he think citizens of America will start to run to him and hug him and worship him? And I mean, why should we "respect" Vietnam vets? I mean, they weren't fighting for freedom. They were fighting for paranoid MaCarthiests (sp?) who were obsessed with the Domino Effect. The people fighting there didn't volunteer either. They either went to Vietnam. Or they went to prison. I don't understand this whole thing. It just doesn't make sense to me.

A Bit 'O Grass Stains

Does not a ruined pair of jeans make.


Setting:Hollywood Bowl
Cast: Band of Horses, Andrew Bird, the Decemberists, my sister, my mom, 13,847 people, and me.

We finally arrive after lots and lots of traffic. I thought I bought really crappy seats but they were actually really decent.

It started with Band of Horses. Then Andrew Bird played. He was amazing, but kept twitching cuz he had uber amounts of energy. I thought he would explode and I was like "you can't die! you're too amazing!". My sister fell in love with him.

After Andrew Bird, my sister and I went to buy shirts and as I am walking I run into the singer to Band of Horses! But I didn't want to be lame and ask for a picture so I just kept walking nonchalantly.

Then the moment 13,800 people were waiting for: the decemberists with the LA philharmonic! It was a spectacle. Colin Meloy had so much energy and his guitar broke so the roadie was fixing it and he ran around the stage.

Pictures tomorrow.

Admired Nonchalance

There is something about this summer that is so -_-. Last summer was so defining. It helped provoke spiritual thought in me and gave me a better perspective of society. I understood our parents and saw how they were just like us, and how they try to deny it. This summer I feel like such a philistine. I'm freaking out about stupid things of the future. I am always worrying. I am focusing only on school. I have no sense in anything. I am just in this SAT/Permit world. I am tired. I am nauseous. I am committing.


I am growing up.

AS to the DF!

On a lighter note: it has been forever since I tagged a blog as ASDF! GO MICHAEL!

Suzanne FUCKING Middle School

There is something about this, this, hellhole that I can't help but hate. How does this place make kids such pompous douchebags? I hate the PMS teachers who cry when a kid asks the same question twice. I hate the principal who makes kids say the Pledge of Allegiance with her. I hate that douche VP. I hate the stupid auditorium and its stupid half gangsta/half whatever murals located around school. Every time I think about that prison I want to vomit. QUE ASCO!

Electioneering

If Rudy Giuliani is voted president, I am leaving the country that day. He has even been dubbed "worse than Bush". IMO, Bloomberg is the best choice, but I doubt he will get anywhere even if he decides to register independent.

"Think she's trying to get the Mafia vote? I think most of them have lost the right to vote. I hope."
-Rudy Giuliani

Oh lord, please America don't vote for him!
