Spring Break


My readers! My will you be sick of justice by the end of the month!
I must say, spring break was rather enjoyable and busy for me. I was doing something everyday. The beach was a highlight, as i got a niceee tan, that along with my new skinny body puts me in perfect super v shape (which i bought my first one btw and i love it) Hanging out with old friends was a plus, not being able to eat solid foods, not cool, but juice it up like crazyyy.
Sorry its been a weeeeeek since my last post, i was just enjoying break and keeping busy with everything.
Apparently i have a rather big following in norcal. I've received a few emails from Frisco, and a few from Fresno area? i guess. Strange, thanks for reading, i'm going to try and post more when i have the chance, it just takes a lot of time to go through all the remixes i get, jesus, they don't stop.
Okay, since we are less then a month away from coachella (omg!) i'm going to do my best to post only coachella music, and although a lot of you have grown to love my acoustic and slow stuff i post, i must return to my first love, electronic. Meaning justice remixes, datarock remixes, the teenagers remixes, and random ass hot chip stuff. But that also means i may throw an occasional death cab cover or remix in there...and who knows, maybe even a jack johnson song!!
umm no...i hate you jj...i'm glad he ended up coming in 3rd for my survey thing, i would've burned my music collection if he won.
btw speaking of death cab, i can't explain how horrible the first few songs i've heard from the new album are. The first single makes me feel like i'm listening to fallout boy or something, really not good :<>
okay like i said i'm going to try and post just coachella music, but in the time i started writing this and now, i received some beautiful electronic and even acoustic stuff which in part is affiliated to a lot of coachella music so i'll post some of that this month too. But this morning, geez its late/early? Its 4:30 now, eek... i'm posting two great coachella acts with remixes, chromeo, with its amazingggg hit bonafied lovin, and then calvin harris, and his major hit merrymaking at my place. Both really good, and different.
AHH i was enjoying being out of school...
23 units on just tues/thurs is pretty good though i must say...
goodnight lovelies.

Happy Easter


okay i'm sick as hell, so i'll make this one somewhat quick. Well first, Happy Easter! well, yesterday. I hope it went well for everyone, mine was great. In my last post, i kind of over-reacted. I didn't mean to offend the people that i mentioned, all i did was speak the truth. Yes, i will end this blog, but i don't know when yet. When i feel the time is right...
I encourage all of you to still read, i may not post that often, but when i speak, i speak from the heart. And since i don't have myspace or facebook, this and email is the only way to keep in touch with me. I deleted nearly every number out of my phone, i only have a few left, and i couldn't be happier.
I find it interesting, because although i've lost over 25 lbs, i look at myself, and i feel i look the same. But nearly every person that came over for Easter commented on how much weight i lost. Interesting. And although i can barely breathe and my throat is killing me, i still ran 4 miles and did a ton of sit ups and weights tonight.
I got my grades, and they are better then most grades i got in high school, haha. Sweet, i guess right now i am just dedicated in everything i am doing.
Omg the movie "Into the Wild," is sooooooo slow. I'm soooo bored!
I feel kind of bad because i feel all my Easter candy is going to waste. My family, being amazing, of course still gives the kid's Easter baskets. So mine is filled with money and candy. The thing is, i don't eat candy! I feel all of those wonderful cadbury cream eggs, reeses eggs, and peeps are all going to waste. Come take some if you eat that stuff! Now if my basket was full of sour patch kids, i must say that is my my guilty pleasure!
Okay the first song i am posting tonight i found thanks to my friend christopher. Its a really fun acoustic version of personally my least favorite justice song, D.A.N.C.E. But it is their major hit! I think all of you will enjoy. ahh one month and i will be staring at that justice cross with my shirt off going crazy at coachella!! And the other is an okay cover of another great coachella band, hot chip, and their dancefloor hit, "over and over" but acoustic, and by great up and coming british band, the miserable rich.
woohoo, spring break, too bad i have to get up at 6 tomorrow morning...goodnight.

New Life


so i've been thinking about this for awhile....so i made my blog in early january, back when i still talked to a few people that i now don't talk to. its not that i don't like them anymore necessarily, but i've moved on and i trusted them, and they left me in the dust. So they know i have this blog, and i know they still read it, but why should i have any contact with them anymore at all? They are the ones that screwed me over, why should they know about my life, why should they download my music and then make a cd and play it for their bf/gf and say they found the music. Why? I am not talking specifically about two people, there are a couple more, and i have forgiven those who hurt me months ago, because i am a good person, unlike you. You act like you are living a life that you always wanted, but in actuality you are trying to do things that make you feel good about losing me as a friend, but its all bullshit. Honestly i just laugh when i hear about all of this. The fact that we all could have had at least a social relationship, but you all so willingly end it because you try to fill the void in your lives...hahahaha Let me tell you, your void will never be filled. i am not saying i am that person to do that, as i am not, but no person will. You act that the person you are with will keep you happy...Well you know what, i wish you the best of luck but when both of those relationships end, i'm going to laugh, because the closest friend you had won't be there, but nonetheless, good luck! seriously, if either of those relationships work, (i'm not talking about you couple others) then i would love to go to the wedding! What's meant to be, is meant to be, but the idea that i lost who i considered to be one of the best men at my wedding, hurts.
Btw i believe i am owed 20 dollars, and some cd's that were borrowed. Those can be returned to my REAL best friend. You know who you are... miss you bro! But sorry, you fucked me royally...good luck with everything in the future.
So yes, i will be ending this blog in the next few weeks. i'm not sure when, i need to think of a new website name, and get the emails of all of my regular readers so i can give them the new address. maybe i'll wait longer to get rid of it, but say goodbye to justice will say goodbye someday soon.
i encourage you to still read till that final day, because maybe i will never see you again eh?

today was a good day, good friday so i of course went to mass, but at st. matthew's, that was weird, i haven't been there in years, but i will be spending a lot of time there in the next few months, and a lot during the summer.
Shopping, sushi, and then the bank job. Goooooooood movie, i def recommend it, really really good british heist thriller.
Tomorrow night will be spent cooking and cleaning like crazy, as i can now actually make food haha. As sunday will of course have 347 people at my house, hahaha.
okay i have to get up sooooo early tomorrow, so i'll call it a night. but with the topic tonight, i think i'll post two very good covers of the perfect joy division song "love will tear us apart." Both are sooo different, one is of the great jose gonzalez and the other is somewhat electronic. Enjoy, and don't forget to give me credit for giving it to you. haha. thanks.

It's Been A Long Time Since I've Seen You Smile...


see the link to this beautiful song, below. Amazing, he just turned 21! I try to imitate his voice when i'm in the shower (ohh) or in the car and its just impossible. He's all i've listened to lately, him and vampire weekend...Amazing he wrote "The Flying Club Cup," while traveling Europe, Nantes is a city in France in which he fell in love with. He's so original, and how he can create such great music with trash cans! fascinates me haha.
so i had my 3 finals yesterday and i'm pretty sure aced them all...now i have 1 paper due wed, and thats it. and i got like $150 bucks for my books that i sold back! sweet.
if i have to hear anything about french politics or british politics or anything on iran, i swear someone is going to get shanked...you know, its a verb, to shank.
any day now i should know about school...eek.
kill bill = best movie everrr.
i'm so excited, me and the bwanka are doing a garage band tutorial next week...sweeeeet. finally i'll know how to actually do stuff on it after so many wasted hours of trying to figure it out haha...
anyways...the other song i'm posting is just another example of a great magnetic fields song, sorry if you are sick of them, but this one is just fun...
happy official spring everyone...i already miss winter :(

One More Day


so i have one more day, and i will finally be on spring break. Actually, i shouldn't say finally, because honestly this quarter went by sooooo fast, its crazyyyy. So next quarter could mark the end of my time at cal poly, well at least thats what i'm hoping for...crazy about the crap going on at my school, like the stabbing and stuff, and then the attempted assault, but the weird thing is, i was in the building at the time of the stabbing, and i was still at school, like directly next to the assault at that exact time, walking back to my car. Crazy!
Its nice to have a steady income, and watching my account go up and up.
You know whats weird is i only bought 1 pair of shoes last year. one. And one i bought for 20 bucks but i don't count that. Crazy huh? i used to buy a tonnnn of shoes, but all i bought was 1 pair of jack purcell's. So now i just bought a sweeeeet pair of creative recs, and i like them so much i'm buying moreeee.
Everyone should see "dan in real life" to tell you the truth a few months ago, i don't know if i would've liked the movie, same thing with juno, i didn't like it as much when i saw it. but now since i'm single and i see these relationships, i feel i would loveee it if i saw it again! kind of sad i love watching romantic comedies by myself haha, but i do! oh netflix, i love thee.
wish me luck on all of my finals! ahhhh!
okay tonight i'm posting two covers of the fantastic song, and my 2nd favorite song of all time (behind how soon is now?) of course, "enjoy the silence" by depeche mode. Both sound very different. the first is the more accessible cover of the song by keane, and the other is the more ambient version by division day...
enjoy and hopefully i'll post again soon! Happy palm sunday btw...well yesterday.

Happy 1/2 Birthday To Me!


hot chip! ahhh so excited to finally see them!
i totally just realized its my 1/2 birthday...ahh! 6 more months till i'm 21, and my huge extravaganza in vegas! sweet.
so pretty much i got home past midnight, after a long, but fun day...and i still had the dedication to run 5, count it, 5 miles. Wednesday night was probably my busiest day of the quarter, a ton of papers due, and last class till finals, so when i got home, after bowling of course haha, i collapsed. first night i hadn't done anything in awhile, and i slept horribly cause of it! ahh.
i don't know whether to be pissed or happy because allllll of my finals are on monday. so that means after monday i'm done, but that also means i don't have any time to study for all of them. Thank god its 4 not 5, i had one final on wednesday, but 4 finals, thats horrible. But as of right now, it looks like i'm going to get 3 A's and 2 B's...i impress myself.
God, i don't know about all of you, but i get so sick of talking about myself, but sometimes i just forget what i'm going to talk about so i just blab on.
10,000 B.C. don't see it...if you are a history buff like me, you will want to scream! soo many historical problems...
Oh btw, if you viewed my page in the past day or two and saw a random video on it, i'm sorry, although the video is of my new favorite band vampire weekend, i totally didn't mean for that to show up. i actually tried to post it like a week ago but it never showed up, until wednesday afternoon randomely i guess? whatev.
speaking of vampire weekend, i can't explain how off my first opinion of them was. i really feel their self titled debut, is SPECTACULAR. Reminds me sooo much of bloc party's debut, if you haven't dabbled in it, i suggest you do. night 1 coachella...yeahhhhh!
Okay, tonight i'm posting two totally random songs. The first, you won't even want to look at because of who the artist is, but i must admit, i find it very well done. It's nelly furtado, thats right, nelly furtado, doing a cover of crazy, by gnarls barkley, don't knock it till you try it! And the second, since i got so much positive feedback from posting a song from jens lekman, i decided to post a great remix from another great song off of "night falls over kortadela." Seriously, beautiful song.
Happy friday, and enjoy my 1/2 birthday.

Struhhhessed


ok so i may be emotionally very happy with myself right now, but physically and mentally i'm drained. I have my three biggest papers due this week, and in true kenny fashion, i wait till the last minute, but it sucks because lately i have been completely and utterly dead. Idk why, its strange, like every morning gets harder and harder for me to get up. And by mid day, i can barely keep my eyes open. My mom thinks its because i don't eat enough, and whatever i do eat, i immediately work off, so my body has no energy, but i don't necessarily agree with that because whenever i eat something i'm still tired afterwards, if not more tired. Personally, i'm kind of scared because i feel tired like mono tired, which isn't good, but i don't think its that bad. But speaking of mono, i'm down to the weight i was right after i had mono, which was like nothing. So that's cool, i'm proud of myself because i've worked sooooo hard, and now i honestly believe i am by far in the best shape of my life. Yeeeeaahhhh.
Okay so tonight i am posting a song from one of my favorite bands of 2007, division day. With a name like division day, it reminds me of some horrible christian rock band, but no, they are a very very good indie band, who released a fantastic album called, "beartrap island" in the latter part of 07. Well when they finished that album, they also released a few random covers of well known songs, so i have a few, but the first i am posting is the classic song "plowed." Very well done. And the other is a great song in which the only reason i'm posting it, is because this band is so similar to one of my faves, the shins. I've heard a few from this band called "the morning benders" and the similarity is uncanny, musically and lyrically, so here is a song from them, and you'll see what i'm talking about.
Damn, if i can stay awake i'm going to try and knock one of these papers out tonight...wish me luck
