You think I'm kidding?
I'm broke as a joke.

We Are Scientists

Monchhichis. Fun times. Also..creepy

Somehow I deleted my original post about WAS. Anyways, nearly 4 months after Michael Trapper left the band, I'm finding out about it. And I'm quite distraught! Keith has a weird emo haircut..Chris doesn't even look the same..he kind looks cute! They have a new drummer and 2 additional members! Last time I saw them there were only 3 on stage. Man..changes. I hate them! But I can't help but admit they sound really really good.

HAHA

sometimes you just need this at 2AM
or..when you're like procrastinating

first watch this:

Now watch this:

i lovee the response! so much so i had to post it right after i saw it today..so yah..thank goodness i was awake long enough for Jimmy Kimmel today. haha

academy awards

there are no real surprises in the night. except for Gary Busey during E!'s Pre-Oscar show..he was such a trainwreck i had to change the channel.

this is gary busey..(opps, i put up a pic of nick nolte by mistake)


anyways..

my fave movie of the year...so glad it won...everything!

i thought

cate blanchett should have won best supporting actress

but so stoked that marion cottilard won best leading role

for her work as Edith Piaf...she did it sooo well..trust me, if you haven't seen this movie go see it.
the best memories i had in HS involved old Edith Piaf vinyls..

i still need to go see the following:

• Lars and the Real Girl
• Eastern Promises
  
• The Savages
• Away from Her
• Atonement
• Gone Baby Gone
• and ALL the documentaries!

the end!
oh wait!
p.s.

this week i'm going to go buy this book


i love john sellers.

mecca

SXSW is fast approaching. i just got my password to create my sxsw calendar and trust me...i'm starting RIGHT NOW!

FRIEND: what did you think of it?

FRIEND: hey i have a question for you that maybe you'd know

TexanlostNBoston: haha k. and i liked them. they're so little

FRIEND: the song nic's groove by foreign exchange

FRIEND: is that beat original or sampled from something and if so what

TexanlostNBoston: mm..i don't know. i thought it was original

TexanlostNBoston: i can go ask around

FRIEND: yeah i've been searching the internet and can't find any indication its sampled so i think its original too

FRIEND: have any new music suggestions for me to look into?

TexanlostNBoston: wat are you in the mood for?

wee

back from wherever i was (jersey/nyc). it was really nice being back in the city and hanging out with kristy. ate some nooooodles. got rained on.walked around soho. contemplated buying a $1600 bag. bought a lot of booze. hung out in jersey instead of go to free parties with free booze. ate some chinese [food]. hung out with fran. met saosin (again). drank a lot of booze (well they did, i was the DD!!!!). got to DRIVEEEEEEEEE the drunk people weeee.. it was great. probably the best time for me haha stayed at a 3 star hotel. went to ikea! i never went to ikea and it was overwhelming. so overwhelming i had to eat an ikea hotdog and some ikea fro yo.

What Would Jesus Blog posted a real rad blog about band related tattoos. they make fun of the hanson ones haha but i've seen some great sites out there with thousands of these and they're all great and i've been thinking about one for quite awhile.. they're going to be more hidden though. like on my rib cage which will hurt. but i've determined that i have high pain tolerance. one band one i want at the moment is an old, classic robot with "If I was a robot, would you love me anymore?" then i wanted something hanson related but there's so much i don't know what exactly. then of course i want my non band related one- banksy girl..and then i think i'm done. my mom would already have 3 heart attacks by that point so i think that'll be enough. gotta give her time to recover ya know.
