Sleeeeeepy.

I need sleep.

Why is everything amazing?

I get to see Rufus Wainwright later today. I don't know how I got to be so fucking lucky. Oh and did I mention I get to see him after going to Disneyland? Yeah.

I just saw Death Cab and HOLY SHIT I was in the very front right in front of Ben and just about died. It was so fucking good and that man is on speed. I'm just glad he didn't play my song or I would have bawled like a baby. (Note: I cried anyways.)

Music makes my life.

Oh and Jake should check out Ra Ra Riot cos they have a hot cello girl. Like, I text Erin and told her I had a girl crush and that I think we're married.

Yeayuhhh.

People are making me feel bad. I don't like that. I feel weird. Whatever, I'm seeing Death Cab tomorrow/later today. SUCK IT.

Oh, birthdays.

It's one of my best friends, Martiza's, birthday today and it's also my mommy's!!! Yay for awesome people being born on the same day!!! Gah, I miss my mom so much right now.

Kayaking.

I went kayaking today and fell over. Some of my scratches make a happy face, wtf!

Oyyyy

I woke up at 4 p.m. this day. That's an indication of my night last night.

DONE.

Today/yesterday was a horrible day. It was so stressful I made myself physically nauseous and almost threw up. But now I've celebrated the end of that day the SB way and in unrelated news Maureen Johnson is going to trapeze school yaaaaaaaaaaay.

AFP.

I know a lot of people have been ragging on her cover of this song but I think it's so fucking beautiful I almost cried when I first listened to it. It is now on repeat while I write a paper about gender bending. Fucking gorgeous.

I wanna be outsideeeeeee.

I have a lot to do today.

Shit.

Infected.

There is an infectious enthusiasm on campus today and I love it. I think it has to do with the shift into a HEAT WAVE. Everyone's out and about, socializing and showing off their skinny ass legs in short shorts or bathing suits. People are going to the beach in droves and just generally having fun outside. On-campus elections are also underway as well as the announcement of who's playing Extravaganza. It's Ludacris, Rebolution, Girl Talk, Cold War Kids, and some DJ. I don't care about the first two but when I head Girl Talk and Cold War Kids I nearly pissed my pants and yelped out loud. (I was in class so this would have been a bad idea.) I'm so upbeat that the prospect of midterms and papers looming near seems almost manageable.

Oh dear, 4/20.

David Sedaris.

So while Jake has been fawning over Jenny Owen Youngs (he never stood a chance stacked against Pocahontas/Missy Elliot covers), I've been reading Me Talk Pretty One Day by David Sedaris. A 50-minute delayed train followed by 3 hours of traveling home allowed me to make a sizable dent in the book and I'm madly in love with it. While it's an amazing narrative he usually has snide remarks or opinions that resemble a good blogger's best day. I'm pretty sure he himself would resent that remark and while I know that he's far and beyond blogging, it just strikes that tone to me sometimes. His wit makes me quite literally, laugh out loud, and his poignant moments shine brilliantly. Oh look at me, trying to review a book. Basically, this guy is the shit and I wasn't expecting it which makes him all the better, even when I disagree with some of his strongly held opinions.

New people.

I met Jenny Owen Youngs about two nights ago and can I just say that she's destined to be my best friend?
She's incredibly sarcastic and witty and we pretty much got along great.
I also met Dhani Harrison extremely briefly but you know, I think we're married now.

Oh and if you don't know who Jenny Owen Youngs is, you should:


She's deliciously witty:

Yay Boy Meets World!

We're watching the Halloween Boy Meets World episode on Youtube. I love my life.

So glad to be reading again.

Chaos and creation.

I've really been in the mood to write lately. Like, I wish I had things of substance to write about in this blog. That would be great.

Remember the Liz I would gush about? She makes me want to write. Great writing does that to me. It makes me want to write and be amazing and hope I transfer some sort of emotion to someone through my writing. The thing is I've never been one for writing short stories or novels or fiction. I tend to write satires or analysis of another person's writing.

I wish.

Let's start reading again.

Gushing about Liz.

I've been having this ongoing discussion with my friend Liz for the past month or so on just random topics. It mostly deals with writing and just life ideas and I don't know, it's just one of the best discussions I've ever had in my life. She's such a beautiful person. Do you remember when I said I wanted to find someone who would understand what I meant when I said life is beautiful? I found her. I found her and she's fantastic and an amazing writer and is just inspiring. So basically this blog post is for me to gush about what an amazing friend I have.<3

Delish.

I think I'm getting better. I just ate some Freebirds burrito. Delicious.

Sickly sick.

I'm slowly recovering. The operative word here being SLOWLY. I have this problem where when I cough my entire head goes away and I start falling over. I feel like I am perpetually drunk or on drugs.

Fuck being sick.

Remember the time I didn't go to class today either?
Yeah, I'm wondering when I'm gonna start feeling better...

Sickness.

I'm feeling a bit better. I scored some drugs up in this place so I could sleep all night for once. Hahah, oh and I didn't go to class today. Fun times.

Damn.

I have:
a fever
a sore throat
a headache
and a newly developed earache.

WTF, LIFE?

Oh, mistakes.

I made the biggest mistake of going out last night even though I was already sick. You don't even understand how shitty I feel right now.

I'm so brilliant.

Going out on a Thursday night and somehow crawling into my bed at 3:30 a.m. Oh yeah, that was smart of me.

It's Thursday.

I like Thursdays. I usually make videos on Thursdays. I wonder what happened to that.

I love trashy television.

Ahhh, I really wish I had my computer back. It's so frustrating not having one.

To Erin, I'm in a blog challenge if you haven't noticed. I have to blog every day for um, I don't know. I don't know even know when this dang thing is over. But you get one freebie, or mulligan, and can miss a day of posting. Mine was on Monday, now I really have to watch it.

I'm getting ready to go out for Danielle's (my friend's) birthday, yay!
