Now that the weather's warming up I'm...

imagining my room as a beach, all my furniture and dirty clothes are my best friends, and a sunset way out west.

and i'm dancing like an asshole.

okay. listening to Plastic Beach (the new Gorillaz album).

first off, the album on it's own is phenomenal. it was recommended to me by my old ap psych teacher.

he recommended watching the video for Stylo, specifically saying that it would, "crack me up".

well i watched it. didn't understand it apart from the donuts and bruce willis.

so that prompted further research...

i had no idea how incredible and grand the gorillaz were (are?)

like it's an entire fiction. it's an entire fucking world!

it's amazing! there's a whole story to follow and i'm a complete sucker for stories.

i spent most of today with the gorillaz.

(and watching north by northwest)

discovered this:

what is that? what?

you could say it's noodle - gorillaz guitarist. it is.

you could also say it's going to be me for halloween this year. it is.

i am totally sucked into and obsessed with this shit now.

it's so brilliant!

Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett are more or less gods, really.

here's the video to Stylo:

oh my GOD!

people are gorgeous!

music: i'm on a soko kick again. Soko, Daniel Johnston, Talking Heads, Bjork.

talking about those idiosyncratic but universal but repetitive but erratic but real real real

people rhythms.

yes, absolutely.

i really love being alone, i really do.

how purely and truly liberating!

but

all i really miss

is being kissed.

i haven't written in a very long time

or done much to the effect of personal productivity?

ah, winter is so languid.

i just want to go outside and look at the snow all day.

or close my eyes and look outside from the inside of my eyelids.

anyway...

hey, you! don't be so afraid of sexuality! don't be so afraid of being ugly!

these things

happen.

i will still love you at least a little.

tree ay em.

today was productive!

[my room is now finally clean and whatever.

did the dishes

finished my drawing homework

went for a run with my dog

(note: i'm out of shape. i can tell because my face was a tomato by the time i came back).

and now i'm doing lcd homework]

...i need to get off facebook. BANE OF MY EXISTENCE.

i had things to say, but oh my god i am too lazy right now.

realizing i ought to be doing real work.

l8r sk8erzs.

oh wait.

Marc Jacobs Fall 2010 line

nice!

Mateusz Kolek

how ill is that?

okay. time to just cry myself to sleep or some shit.

this song this song this song.

it's unfair how it can change my mood so well.

don't be so blue don't be so blue don't be so blue don't be so blue don't be so blue

the color hardly suits you

but color can't be helped.

don't be so blue.

so many things are changing around me, i find it a little strange that i still stay the same.

-i'm planning on commuting to pratt this semester for various reasons. like being able to use that money to get a car. using that money to go on tour.

-me and kelvin are split for all intents and purposes. also for various reasons (various really only being one: distance). SO GUESS WHO A SINGLE LAYDEE?!

-picking up major speed with the band once again! we're in the studio starting tomorrow!

... i don't know!

maybe there is a little something to this whole new year, new decade business.

the only thing that isn't new is me. same old me. all the time.

i like this idea a lot. for like a photo shoot or something


back in the studio starting... tomorrow!
i'll keep posting with details.
