Baby you can drive my car and maybe i'll love you.

BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP!! Hahahaha great song by the beatles :)


Today is the first day of the new semester.. but before i hit on the school subject, i'd like to share with you the day of... YESTERDAY! My friend and I went to Disneyland from opening time to closing time. The lines were relatively short (0-20 min wait) and we got fast passes every 2 hours. Great strategy btw ;D Aaahh it was so fun. I deem Snow White's Scary Adventure (i think its called?) the scariest ride at Disneyland. Hands down. No joke. I went on it twice and had to duck down for most of it. My two favorites are Space Mountain and Indiana Jones. And an amazing thing happened yesterday. I GAINED A BRITISH ACCENT! I can speak like a British puhh-son now ;D

Aaahh. Anyway, today was rather unproductive, but I WILL CHANGE THAT.
One of my new favorite bands = The Buzzcocks :D
-sidenote: i think Elvis Costello has a pretty nice voice. hehehe-

You know, I think I should make a list of all my favorite albums in the whole wide world :D
And I should go out and buy all of them on a hard copy if I don't have it already (or just burn them on disc cause that's way cheaper and more personal), and keep it forever & ever and hand it down to my kids so they can listen to it too! I will be very depressed if my future kids don't like music the way I do ):
And i will PUSH them to play musical instruments. Kind of sad that I gave up piano and violin :// Ahh well.. I hate practicing... :p


Hehehhee NO SLEEP TILL BROOKLYNNNNNNNN!!
That song has been stuck in my head since Saturday :O


Okay enough about music and Disneyland...



So today.... not much happened. I was a BAMF and missed TA so now I have to be excused for my absence. Just keeeding about the BAMF part.. I was sleeping and i got texts from two people that i missed it :Oh man. (<-- THAT WAS WITTY!! WITH THE :O AND I ATTACHED THE H SO ITS 'OH' BUT LIKE ':OH') !!! UHHH. Oh well here's an interesting fact: I bought this bag from the thrift store for 3 bucks and I took it to school today. That's it. All I've got to say...

you're the boss applesauce. (HAPPY BIRTHDAY NIKKI!)

I'm currently watching Party Monster for the second time...

Today was pretty fun. My friend and I walked to Chipotle, ate, walked to school, checked our final grades, and found a ride home.
This all happened in the midst of a RAINSTORM. Just kidding. It was a very light sprinkle.

Now I'm back. I'm inspired by Andy Warhol, but he's a bitch. Well that's how I feel after watching the movie, Factory Girl. I feel like he's a user, but maybe it's just the film that makes him look bad.

SEMESTER BREAK :D
four days. Today is Day #1.
I'm pretty much pigging out and resting.

I desperately need to clean my room, but I have no motivation.
I also need to read a stack of books I've been meaning to read :/


LKSJDFLKDSJFLK STOP PROCRASTINATING STEPH!!!
^ thats me talking to myself, btw.

P.S. HAPPY BIRTHDAY NIKKI!! WOOOO!! :D

do the D.A.N.C.E. 1, 2, 3, 4, fight.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY RACHEL !

(:


the song up there ^
i'm using it for my photography final project.


WHICH I AM SO SCREWED FOR.
just fyi.



Today, I found out I have a solid B in all 6 of my classes.
://

I need to work harder & study for my finals.

So SO LONG INTERNET!

(Psh, yeah right.)

i'll keep you my dirty little secret.

my dirty little secret is that i like that song.... a lot.
and i hate the all american rejects, like 99% of the time.

://

except i must admit, i enjoy watching their music videos :D



anyway, today is sunday, im sick, and postsecret sunday updated (:
i love reading it every week, and i get bummed out when they skip a week, and super excited when they do a double post within a week. yes, im a freak. but reading other people's secrets makes me feel... not alone.


right now, i feel like im on another planet. i feel really disconnected and removed.



BLAH. okay well right now, the killers are making me very very very happy :D


im gonna do my photography project nowwww yeeeeee

i want a girl who will laugh for no one else

i love the song "No One Else" by Weezer.
and thank you Rachel, for telling me you like my blog :)
I LOVE YOU AND YOUR WEEZER OBSESSION. :D

today was a prettty bad day.
but at the same time, im content.
i have no idea what im doing with my life.. or what will happen..
all i have to say is: i hate drama. and if someone needs to confront me, DO IT IN PERSON.
it takes a lot to hurt my feelings now, than... lets say... one year ago.

blahhh. im sick. to top it all off.

but it feels good to talk to my old friends againn(:
Nikki & Rachel, you guys make me feel better, even when we talk on IM!

maybe its karma.. but i dont recall doing ANYTHING bad or mean.
i think im generally a nice person, and i never intend to be anything else.


anyway, yesterday was an AMAZING day.
in spanish, we had a fiesta, but it wasnt as good as the last one. hahha
and in math, I ACTUALLY FEEL CONFIDENT IN MY TEST :D and i memorized the greek alphabet because i stared at the chart for like half an hour.
and in history, ...i forgot what happened...
but after school, my friend and i went to spectrum and watched THE UNBORN. it wasnt that good, it was more funny than anything. but i have an obsession for scary movies, and i have to see ALL OF THEM now. yes, im a weird child. i also bought a couple things. the blink 182 greatest hits cd, cause i dont actually have a copy of that. and a panic at the disco record (yes, a record). and a led zeppelin t shirt. and this doodle journal. WHICH IS SIMPLY AMAZINGGG@)#*$)(*@#$(*#$@


funny story. my friend and i were walking past the pretzel store, and through the window, we saw the pretzel guy making pretzels! and here's what he did for us:



yesss :D

sorry if i sound distant in this post.. im just in this weird awkward state of being.
like im on another planet
://

hopefully tomorrow will be a better day...

hey, hey, mama, said the way you move, gonna make you sweat, gonna make you groove

today was a rather productive day. i had a really good time at school & when i got home, i immediately worked my butt off with all my homework :) usually i procrastinate and start at about this time, but today, i was motivated. i think it was the music i was listening to! seriously... listen to led zeppelin if you cant concentrate. (this is coming from a professional procrastinator btw)

this was what i was listening to on loop.


mmm i have a spanish & math quiz tomorrow, but i actually studied!
&i think this new year will ACTUALLY bring changes... which is scary...

reach for the sky cause tomorrow may never come

^ that song (reach for the sky by social distortion) is a song i used for one of my english projects.
i related it to an excerpt from one of shakespeare's plays, and it is honestly a perfect match.

here's the excerpt (its like a poem):

Carpe Diem

O mistress mine, where are you roaming?
O stay and hear! your true-love's coming
That can sing both high and low;
Trip no further, pretty sweeting,
Journey's end in lovers' meeting--
Every wise man's son doth know.

What is love? 'tis not hereafter;
Present mirth hath present laughter;
What's to come is still unsure:
In delay there lies no plenty,--
Then come kiss me, Sweet and twenty,
Youth's a stuff will not endure.

***edittt (haha): my friend showed me this poem btww<3
its one of my favorite poems ever because i can totally relate to it.
i really like shakespeare... but ive only read romeo & juliet and macbeth.
MACBETH WAS GREAT. i love the various movie versions of it, because they make the past apply to the present.
i think thats so cool.... but i may just be a freak :/


I HAVE TWO NEW SONGS I LOVE AS OF TODAY:

changes by david bowie
and
let the drummer kick by citizen cope



both amazing songs. i could play them on repeat forever...



Btw, FERRIS BEULLER'S DAY OFF IS AMAZING!!
i remember watching like parts of it when i was younger, and i thought it made no sense... but watching it last night (technically morning) at 1am, i thought it was brilliant.

i seriously wish i was born in like... 1955, so i could live through the 70s as a teenager and the 80s as i become an adult.
and the 90s as an adult! that would be soooo amazing. im glad i got to live 7 years of the 90s though... hahaha
2000-present just kind of sucks. all these terrible things have happened to our country since the second millenium... and it MIGHT BE BECAUSE OF A CERTAIN PRESIDENT. hmmm this is why i hope to see change in our country... i really do.


ONE MORE THING.
someone is annoying the CRAP out of me right now.
she is the most FAKE person ever, but she's so nice ): so i still talk to her and stuff
but she's trying to be something she's really not.
and i dont know whether to feel sad/bad for her or to feel frustrated.
see, this is one of my pet peeves... sigh. i dont know.
she posted the most RIDICULOUS thing today online... and... ugh.
i just really feel sorry for her right now.
i think i should pray for her.

anyway,
good day to you! (read that like fez from that 70s show says it...)

miss jones taught me english, but i think i just shot her son

its a beautiful song. Slow Motion - Third Eye Blind --> GO LISTEN NOW. im not really pumped for their new album (February!!) though. Non Dairy Creamer kind of ruined my excitement for it. ):


I've got a $#!TLOAD of homework to finish by tomorrow... including math. But I honestly just wanna give up in that class. IF YOU READ THIS, PLEASE PRAY FOR ME ): I really need help. I'm on the verge of a D. And I don't want anything lower than a C ):


I also read a post I made earlier in this blog, and I wrote about my fantasy of Tom and Travis and Mark contacting each other... and GUESS WHAT?! that fantasy came to life. believe in your dreams people :) some of my dreams this year actually came true. coincidence? i think not.



i was online shopping the other day, and i found a lot of things i wanted, but im probably not ever gonna get. Here's a talking watch.. There was also this staple-less stapler i found on the site, but i guess they took it off. my friend has one of those, and frankly, i think they are AMAZING.


another totally random thing...

i saw this like... three or four days ago. its a disney channel movie that aired in 2002 and i am in love with it. the acting is surprisingly great, and shia labeouf is SOOO GOOD IN IT. he is actually the disabled boy in this film, and its one of those sad movies that make you think about your relationship with your family. and you can watch this on youtube (: or late late late at night on disney channel.

i dont think i have much more to say... ive said a lot in this :p
im listening to led zeppelin right now. song = kashmir. i think its brilliant.
also, kanye's new album is brilliant as well (: despite all these people saying how much it sucks, i am utterly in love with some of the tracks. btw, KARA RACHEL NIKKI IF YOU READ THIS, ATTENTION ATTENTION. i know you guys hate me for obsessing over them in the past years... so i thought i should let you know this: the new fall out boy album isnt as bad as the last album, but the last album was no good. so what im trying to say, is that this album (folie a deux) SUCKS. i kind of really hate it. except like four songs. i really want to hear TAKE THIS TO YOUR GRAVE material. that was the best album, by far. almost reminds me of blink...

today, rachel was telling me how much she liked the "take off your pants and jacket" album by blink.
however, she did not know (until i informed her) that it was "take off your pants and jack-it".

oh, those witty minded guys...
i wish i could be witty one day.


btw, im compiling a new playlist. the other one is getting quite old.

2008 is dead.

Or over. Whichever word you wanna use.

I'm currently listening to Cheap Trick and wondering why I haven't listened to them over the 5 years I've known them as a band. My favorite song EVER by them is called In The Street (aka That 70's Song). CAUSE I LOVE THE THEME SONG TO THAT 70'S SHOW ALMOST AS MUCH AS I LOVE THAT 70'S SHOW. Best show EVER. Seriously. It surpasses The Office by 02394390284089324 light years. BECAUSE LIGHT YEARS ARE NOT A UNIT OF TIME, BUT ACTUALLY A UNIT OF DISTANCE. Yes. I learned that in like 2nd grade. Inspiring.


Um let's talk about 08.
George Bush comes to mind. (yes, proceed to barfing if you desire.)
THE SONG IM LISTENING TO IS DISTRACTING ME FROM ACTUALLY THINKING ABOUT 2008.
I WANT YOUUUU TO WANT ME I NEEEED YOUUU TO NEED ME.

Okay done with that. In conclusion, 2008 was pretty much just another year.
Except I kind of discovered myself a little better... which is a big accomplishment.


2009 is not starting off very great. BUT LETS BE POSITIVE.
I went to my cousin's house on the last day of December and played tons of Guitar Hero WORLD TOUR THATS RIGHT. Came home a bit before the new year, and watched the ball drop. Not really sure what's so great about a ball dropping... but.. you know, it's supposed to be "cool". And I spent the first day of the new year forgetting that it was the new year... HOW SAD IS THAT. And yesterday (the second), i went to the thrift store and bought a ton of vintage stuff (: Also a mailbox. It was 5 BUCKS!! How could i not?! I also watched The Blair Witch Project with my friend yesterday at like 11 PM. The ending was pretty scary. and there was a that 70's show marathon yesterday that i MISSED THANKS TO MY PARENTS. its alright though. i watched every freaking episode of all 8 seasons probably 3 times each.... thanks to the marathons :) i also watched the movie almost famous for like the 3rd time yesterday. i think its brilliant and the soundtrack is 1003949238049x more brilliant.

uhh i have a lot of homework. but i havent even touched it these past 2 weeks. at this point, im doing everything BUT homework.....

UPDATE ON BLINK182: Mark, Tom, and Travis talked to each other! this is very very old news. I just didnt go on my blog until now. haha go check out mark hoppus' blog. it's literally my home page, in hopes that he will update more often. haha how sad.

Last note: Can't wait for Jan 20th of this year... OBAMA!!
