Halloween 2008


i loveeee john lennon and everything he represented, but i'm not a huge fan of his son's julian's solo work. But sean is different, this song is veryyyy symbolic, and how much he looks like john is creepy! i've been going back between this album and various new order albums for the past few weeks, because i loveeeee anything that has to do with joy division as you alllll know...
its strange because i don't realize how long its been since i post sometimes...since school is back in, and since i'm taking a full load, things are just more then stressful with this and with my life in general. i'm writing this because i have an hour before my next class starts, so why not eh?
so my life...
a week from tomorrow will be an uhhhhmazzzing night. a night that begin barely before midnight and will commense no earlier then 4am in my new favorite place in the worlddddddd, hollywood. i'm so mad i never before spent my time there, it is sooo ridiculously fun and adventurous. sure gas sucks sometimes but its worth it everytime. i'm glad now since i'm 21 i can enjoy so much more, but honestly, halloween is going to be insaneeeee.
so far i know a lottt of people going. so if you are going to the event of all events, HARDFEST then please call me. i'm sure i'll be there by midnight, or earlier, because that is when all the fun begins.
does anyone know if they have released a lineup list? because i can skip some of the bands, but i needddd to see smd, crystal castles, and of course JUSTICE.
i ordered my costume yesterday.....omg. its sooooooooo funny. wait till you see pictures. its going to be beautiful.
we are def in the best part of concert season my friends...seeing black kids a week ago at the mayan was wonderful. the first time i went to that venue, i wasn't 21, and it wasn't half as much fun as it is if you are 21. wow there is so much more to do and see, i now am deeply in love with that venue, i highly recommend it. you can check out the filter review of the show, HERE. my fave part is how she mentions how the crowd knew all the words to "this charming man" when it came on. hahahaha i was screaming it on the top of my lungs like i was hearing stephen patrick myself.
wow. 2 months till christmas. thats insane!
so it looks like i'm studying abroad in london this spring. i wanted to do florence, but london has a program specifically designed for poli sci students, so i can get all the credits i need and still graduate next winter, so i'm psyched. and i think my parentals may help me pay for it because it has to do with my career. there is this organization i've gotten pretty close to, and i would have a one year internship in jamaica/mexico for a semester, and then london for the last semester once i enter my master's program. but in order for me to get in, i need to have a feel for what the agency entails, so it would be the perfect opportunity to expand my career internationally into what i want to do. because god knows i am not staying in america after 2010, DESPITE the election results, which we now know will end in my favor. well i actually am still considering hawaii's grad program, and they have exactly what i want, but Canada and Europe are so much more desirable...i'm not one for the sun, as opposed to the cold and gloomy...
i'm really mad at myself for never really celebrating halloween pretty much at all for the past like 5 years haha. i mean its just weird to think, you can never, ever get that time back, so why spend it on the couch or working or something. ridiculous. if you are young, enjoy your life, don't be afraid to try something new, and don't be afraid to DANCE.
okay so for music today, i have three really fun covers, the first is a good cover of the wonderful vampire weekend but by the mystery jets. the next is a spectacular arcade fire cover in the late tradition of great girl singers i've been posting, like lenka and juju, this one is great guys get on it. And the last...oh morrissey my forever love. its a rogue wave cover of "what difference does it make?"
enjoy them loves. have a reallyyy great halloween, and call me.
yeahhhhh.
