should i delete my facebook (again)?

every1,

ever get to a point where ur life is really getting to u and things r kinda hard and u just need to DO SOMETHING? and youre like 'WHAT CAN I DO THAT IS SO RADICAL THAT WILL SHOW EVERY1 THAT IM GOING THRU SOMETHING??'

and then u delete your facebook. because its 'kind of a big deal' - anchorageman. one time i deleted my facebook in march and didnt bring it back until july. i think i really showed the world something and every1 noticed and wondered about it. if anyone asks you u can say that 'u just dont get facebook' or 'like to communicate via phone or 'face to face'' whatever that even means, or 'u dont buy into all of it.'

thinkin its maybe time to delete my facebook again. should i delete my facebook???? help me decide guys. its so hard to do something like this but sometimes u just gotta do it.

school

guys, 1 concept i have actually learned in school, and u may actually also know about it, is the idea of "depreciation." does anyone else know about tis???? this is when something loses its value over time. it can be in perfect condition but will still lose its cashmoney or other value because TIME GOES ON.

everything has been depreciating so quickly u guys. here are some things that have lost all of their meaning/value 2 me

1. school and doing hw
2. everything

its no coincidence that when something gains value it "appreciates" because u can APPRECIATE how cool it now is. language is so powerful u guys. lately i have been appreciating the idea of getting a blackberry.

ps u all i need to grow some balls...metaphorically speaking...see thats what i mean about language and its POWER. i am feelin like courage the cowardly dog < /internet popculture reference .>

is it mental retardation day?

sorry guys

u guys,

sorry i havent updated in a few days aka 100 blog years. the reason is i was at a debate tournament. sumtimes i even think its weird that i have hobbies outside of watching anime on youtube and updating my blog

well newayz the next few weekends i will be gone a lot too. i am going to harvard for a debate tourny, then there is a high school debate tourny RIGHT HERE AT THE U OF M; it will be crazy u guys. i recommend u go to mason hall in 2 weeks and find out 'what its all about.' then i am flying off to wake forest. i should start utilizing my camera more.

h8 when school gets in the way of 1. PARTYING 2. anime and 3. debate
gotta go study for some patty exam right now

SEE YALl

the past/present dichotomy

hey guys hey guys,

things are looking up becuz i might *finally* get a BlackBerry. wanted an iphone but we have sprint.

cant wait 2 check my e-mail during lecture.
cant wait 2 text u using a full keyboard during section.
cant wait 2 blog about a concert im at while im still there.
cant wait 2 get upset about wireless not working on my blackberry one time and have every1 around me sincerely empathize.

before people could listen to music on their blackberries/other handheld pdas, some people listened to lps. cant text u from my lp but i can still appreciate it in its own way





lpcoverlover.com when i first looked at it a few years ago before it had its own domain had some mp3s that i loved that i cant find anywhere anymore. does anyone know that song by "Lil Markie" sang from the perspective of an unborn fetus who gets aborted?
Or the "Blast Off" song that goes 'somewhere in outerspace god has prepared a place for those who trust him and obey...."

JUST THINKING OUT LOUD

in the year 2100, a virus strikes the nation of ??? and makes everyone blind. it is illegal to have any physical/mental shortcomings and anyone who has them is shot on sight, so everyone hides their blindness from each other, thinking they are the only ones. productivity in the nation declines to zero since no one goes to work or does anything, and the stock market collapses. all of the worlds economies are linked, so they start declining. pretty soon there is rampart terrorism and world wide riots over the confusion. the world ends from a thermonuclear catastrophe after the nations of the world attack each other with nuclear weapons.

sorry every1, i have a very apocalyptic imagination. i have a weird luv/h8 relationship with nuclear/chemical/biological weaponz which probably stems from the fact that i didnt play enough organized sports as a child.




"its not his will" yall

short story idea

well i guess this is my third update today but the reason i am updating right now is because i actually want to write something down so that i might look at it at a later date and maybe not forget cuz i always think of things and forget them

in a dystopic future wasteland a group of transgender children are the protagonists in an epic battle against thousands of talking heads. thery do not have bodies, they are only heads that fly around trying to inject the children with deathly toxic estrogen/tesosterone, or put them in concentration camps and make them undergo psychiatric experiments. every time the children try to fight the heads, they grow really fat body parts and become more indistructable. finally the children realize that to win the war they must summon Jesus from the past to reason with the enemy, but their time machine doesnt go that far back, so they get Ronald Reagan instead, which turns out to actually be more effective.

sorry if u guys think my idea is stupid/'tryin 2 make a statement' i just have a very vivid imagination and maybe need to come to terms with reality one day

halloween

this halloween i kinda wanna do things a little differently and be a concept/idea instead of being something that is tangible. any1 can be like a 'sexy bunny' or a 'dead sexy bunny', but how many ppl have u seen successfully execute "equality" or "acceptance?"

here are some concept costumes i might be for all hallows eve 2008 in no order:

1. Gene Ray's Time Cube http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_Cube
2. the concept of an IDEA
3. pyramid scheme
4. unity

fan death

if anyone has left their house lately (been tryin not 2), ull notice its getting a little colder outside, as the earth tilts away from the sun and the seasons change. im taking an environmental science class right now, so i feel like i can talk about seasons and the earths rotation, even tho im not a science major.

the good thing about this is we can all turn off our fans, even if the bad thing is we gotta put our shorts away :(:

What is Fan Death?
Fan Death is the belief that if someone is sleeping in a sealed room (windows and doors are closed) with an electric fan on, they could die.

Who Believes Fan Death?
The only country to believe in fan death is South Korea. If you ask any Korean about fan death, they will almost certainly vehemently argue that it is indeed true. It seems Koreans of all ages, professions (including doctors) and education backgrounds believe it.
accoridng to fandeath.net



be careful every1. i would be sooooo sad if this happened 2 u. u dont want to die this way, trust me!!!!!

books

does anyone still read? not really sure if well ever know a truthful answer to this, but guys, i just wanna share my favorite book with u all even tho im sure every1 has seen the movie



i read this book once a year u all for the past six years. its about a unicorn who thinks she is the last unicorn and wants to find other unicorns, 'in a nutshell.' u will laugh, u will cry. u will identify with the last unicorn briefly.

the last linacorn

things that i wish 4

guys,

there comes a day when we realize things/society r just really not fair. u realize that even tho u might get a blackberry if u make it really clear to your dad how key it is to your career, life is still really hard if u got in a fight with ur bf/u got a B+ when u expected an A-, or u wanna party but u also kinda wanna 'chill at home.'

here are some things i wish 4:

i wish they never canceled 'heil honey, i'm home!'
i wish everyone still updated their livejournals
i wish lilo/kfed were still in the news
i wish people were 'a little more chill'
i wish mood rings would actually tell u how u feel
i wish i could speak to animals/relate 2 them better
i wish for no more twincest in the world
most of all, i wish that we could all be real 2 each other

how do yallsies express thyselves?

you all,

slang is a rly powerful expression in our society. if u are not sure if soemone is american or just a foreigner pretending, u can usually drop some slang and see if they 'get it.'

i have 3 slang terms that basically only like 10 other people know and they are patty, renaissance, and alt. i didnt make these up or anything but i use them.

but guyz, i just realized that to really take words/being meaningful to the next level, we should use METAPHORS MOSTLY. and we all know that the most powerful type of metaphor is the war metaphor, you all.

so here is lyke some war metaphors i would use in common situations

situation: someone asks u "how was the party"
u can answer
1. cold war-esque (it could have happened, but didnt)
2. pretty much the gulf war (it was postponed)
3. like a low-level regional conflict between 2 african countries over water scarcity (it was lame...no one showed up or cared)
4. it was a total anthrax scare (could have been cool, but wasnt...dont rule out chemical warfare yall)
5. FULL OUT THERMONUCLEARWAR (best party eva)

situation: what is up with patty and steven? are they still dating
1. he totally ww1'd her (made alliances with other girls that werent known until later)
2. i dunno, their relationship is best characterized by the israeli-palestinian conflict (ongoing conflict unlikely to be resolved)
3. no, its just an anglo-zanzibar type scuffle (really short fight)

what do u all think? is using war metaphors like this THE TRIVILIZATION OF THE BRUTALITY OF WAR? am i gay? let me know guys

movies about gays who are good at math

u all,

who is sick of movies every 5 month about some guy that is really good at math? hes always white and underprivileged/misunderstood and then he will solve some math problem and everyone in them movie will be like HOW DID U DO THAT and he will be like "ITS LIKE...NUMBERS...I JUST UNDERSTAND THEM...BUT I DONT UNDERSTAND PEOPLE...NUMBERS, I GET NUMBERS"

there are so many yall

pi
a beautiful mind
proof
infinity
good will hunting
tv series numb3ers
murder by numbers
that movie on demand now where theyre like 'YOU GO TO MIT'


am i the only one of the opinion that every one of these movies sucked? pi was cool in ur alt dad kind of way of liking things, but it was also kinda boring. why is this such a cool topic to make a movie about? i know lots of guys that are good at math...they are all of asian/indian descent. they are all around u.

why dont we just make movies about girls who have blogs

i think im on the brink of disaster

NIGHT ON DA TOWN





<3 <3 <3 love you gays

GUYS, WHO AM I ??

im having a quarter life crisis. i think i need to take on a new identity for like a week to learn more about myself.

what should my new identity be?

sorority girl?


girl with no shame; this will require putting on 15-20 lbs, getting drunk and passing out every weekend, dressing provacatively, and hitting on every single guy with no restraint


maybe i need a religious identity 2 be the 1 that shows:


should i be a lesbo?? (jk guys...sexuality is not a choice)

OR IS IT A CHOUCE?


or maybe an entry level alt?


or a full time professional alt like the girl in the middle? unless thats a dude?? thats how u know if u are a professional alt; people cant tell your gender


or maybe i can b 1 of those girls who loves anime and thinks she is japanese/will eventually move to japan and get a japan bf

went to a show, what do you know

thursday nite i had a few things i needed to do:
1. highlight debate files
2. applied economics hw
3. study for two exams next week

what did i actually do?
go to the MOCAD for a show. what convinced me to go is that dan deacon would be playng there and i missed him last time he was in 'the D.'


guys, i just want to talk about alts for a moment. i got the idea of an entry level alt from another blog i read; the younger alt that is shopping at american apparel and listening to music that is now no longer authentically alt because new alts have just caught on to it.

but what about the exit-level alt? the 30 year old that is still going to shows with a bunch of vacuous teenage/twenty somethings? if i was in their position, the only way i would be able to rationalize my presence at these events was by taking myself very very very seriously.

1. rule of taking urself seriously: the ONLY people allowed to take photos at shows are party photographers. if you bring a camera to a show you are automatically NOT COOL

as we were taking this picture obviously in an ironic fashion to mock the aesthetic of party photography websites,

this random bro with plugs glared at us. i thought it was funny because a) he had plugs, and b) he is probably a patty


what is their alt careers? photojournalism or owning the MOCAD?



what is the altest career? me and my girlz unanimously decided that MONSTER is the most alternative career:

photo from the mudlot

bonus: the only legitimate photo of me from the show because it was taken by a party photographer and was unposed

overheard in ann arbor

1. scenario - business school elevator me and a bunch of middle aged guys:

"the most important thing to figure out is where we can go that is hip, but still age and social-class appropriate"
(and then the other dudes nod in agreement )

social class? lolol


2. "she is so chill" - some girl using chill as a serious descriptor of another person, rendezvous cafe

sick

u guys,

a tragedy of unspeakable proportions befell me on wednesday. i fell off my bike and had to get stitches. i cannot go to the university of kentucky debate tournament this weekend, and i had to postpone my accounting exam.

BUT U ALL, its not the end of the world 4 me. even though this really sux i am making the best out of a bad situation. i am milking my percocets and vicodniz for all they are worth.

this whole experience has really made me realize that i am more fragile/susceptible to problems than i thought. like since i have not moved at all in the past 4 days and i have just been sitting at home eating everything i can see i have actually been gaining some poundz. u know its sad when u realize u are getting on in the years and u can no longer eat whatever u want. its lyke, if i eat, and if it is in excess, it turns into fat on my body. im not a biology major but i guess this is how things r actually supposed to work. so sad when ur body no longer defies the rules of biology.

this has already made me see i am not aging so well u all.
when will i get my first wrinkle? if biology applies to me, what if gravity also does?
my first cellulite?
my first acne?
wat if i get a stretch mark cuz i eat a regular subway sandwich and not a 6 inch?
wat will menopause be like? what is a hot flash going to do 2 my skin?

there are all these problems i need 2 think about and this whole bike injury was a really big wake up call so in some wayz its almost good that i got this reality check before i woke up one day with post partum depression. does anyone have any diet tips or am i gunno have to pay this new tax just like every1 else?

overheard in ann arbor

so i was walking in the Michigan League around 11:45 am, and before going in2 the bathroom to make sure my face was still ok, i heard:

"I just LOVE teachers that are the same age as my parents...i just love the way they think"

lol wut?

did anyone hear anyone say anything funny lately or do we live in a humorless society? J/W
