i changed the capitalization of the

blog title of my
blog from LAST NITES PATTY to 'last nites patty.' this is the biggest
blog change ive made. unfortunately, for whatever
blog reason, the
blog title remains in capital letters.

tofu and baby wipes

i had a dream that i opened up a tofu store. i have very neutral feelings towards both tofu and entrepreneurship. i employed all of my 'hottest' friends to work there. the store had a lot of customers. in the dream there would be shots of my friends reading a magazine and selling tofu in a very small store. everyone chewed bubble gum, and looked really bored. i wonder if this dream means something.

'random' insane clown posse thoughts

the insane clown posse
they are a band from detroit
occasionally i will say
"insane clown posse went to my high school"
im not sure about this
but it seems true
then i hear claims they went to a different
suburban high school
what i need to know now is
did they go to your high school

do you realize?

you had the most stunningly angular face, and i thought it was one of the most beautiful faces i had ever seen; sometimes, when i would look at you, that overplayed song by the flaming lips, 'do you realize??' would run through my head; and i always thought that was really cheesy, but i liked it, and i did not mind that that hokey song would involuntarily run through my brain for this reason; it was because you did have, at one point, and i really believe this, a hauntingly gorgeous facial angularity; it was the kind which is extremely rare in the way of facial beauty.

japan vs. russia

do i like japan more than russia? not really interested in other nations of the universe as they dont stand out to me in any particular way.

pro/con list

japan
- cool fashion ; japanese street fashion
- good food ; sushi, tempura
- good lit ; lots of manga, murakami
- media ; anime, movies like Oldboy

One time I saw this movie called Tokyo! at the Mich Theater. One of the stories in it was about a hikikomori. I wiki'd it much like u might wiki the ideas of your fav philosopher.

A widespread phenomenon in Japan (maybe), it relates to reclusiveness, solitude, schizoid personality disorder, social anxiety, delayed sleep, avoidance. AY KAY AY, human conditions much more interesting than things like - teamwork, perseverance, 'independence', romance.

anyways - i like japanese people, theyre usually chill bros and their country has produced a lot of things that i really enjoy/relate with. also i think their disposition seems calm/rational; hate when people are really moody and emotional, its bullshit and annoying. i cant think of a time ive ever projected my own issues onto other people; you shouldnt make your problems everyone else's issue.

to me, selfishness/inconsideration for your fellow person has always been the #1 thing i absolutely cannot stand. the only people i have ever grown to dislike were one's who seemed to not care or be conscientious of their effect on other people. and these people always acted in this inconsiderate way because of their own personal problems that were important than extending basic courtesy to others. like your own personal problem is any kind of excuse for being a huge asshole or not contributing when your effort is required by other people.

its not like wallowing in your own personal misery is mutually exclusive with being a decent human person that comes through for people when it is expected!!!

didnt you know that???


russia

- better lit than Japan
- worse food
- animation is also really amazing ; Maximov
- russian pop music is amazing
- i am russian, not a traitor to my race

well i might finish this list later. it is always going to be a tie anyway.

desktopgate

i wonder how long i will keep my current desktop before i get self conscious about it

this is the first movie ive ever made in imovie

this video is a summary of the life and thoughts of 99.9% of people. forgive the stupid sound effects.

music video

so music video is about 30% done. my goal for the music video is to have people feel embarrassed for me when they watch it.

even you

anyone can write a
haiku poem because it
is really easy

hey everybody
follow me on twitter yall

Hallusitania

me and josh disbanded our old band 'the missed connection' in favor of a sound experiment we're doing called 'The Hallusitania." I want to make a music video with it. The music video will be me CRYING THE WHOLE VIDEO and maybe you if you wanna cry on camera for my music video. I will cry in Sepia tone. I want the video to have a real 'i just-learned-how-to-use-the-video-function-on-the-macbook' kinda feel with some really obvious macbook video effects. Think it will turn out good. Excited.

every age

every age

i look back at younger ages and remember being happy at those times. there are few emotions you can remember when looking back. you remember happy or sad. you are less likely to remember feeling relieved or shamed or envious. you see the whole era as generally colored by one feeling, usually happiness, when you feel just as you do now 30 emotions in one day or one week depending on your range.

mostly i think i feel contentment. i can admit that i do not have much of an emotional range. though i never feel extremely uninhibitedly happy, i also never feel terribly horribly sad, even when i have gone through the typical sad things that people encounter in life like death, break-ups, failure, and so on. even if i do feel these things, i don't think my demeanor changes much. i was more emotive as a child. i used to cry much more often when expressing sadness.

its like people just do things to get paid, and thats just really sad

1. The Communist Daycare Center. An experiment gone horribly right/wrong??
2. The Substitute Death Teacher
3. Damien - a story about a narcissist who becomes even less self-aware after given the ultimate chance of self awareness. a story posted on 9/28/2008
4. Laura - story about a girl who decides to find 'meaning' in life by writing a novel

5. Testro Time Machine - story about transgender aliens summoning heroes from the past to reason with their enemies - originally posted on 10/28/2008 - probably wont really write this one
6. The Feminist News Channel - story about a tv station. an experiment gone horribly right or wrong??? - dont think i wanna write this one either maybe.

7. Poem about that one picture i looked really hot in that i wanted my friend to post, but didnt want to seem too forceful about it in worries of looking 'facebook obsessed'

poems ages 16-17

poem age 16

i am in trouble once again with parents
it is for not cleaning my room
cant the give me a break
they dont realize how much other kids fuck up
if they realized this
they would be thankful to have me
and they would not make SUCH A BIG DEAL ABOUT EVERYTHING

poem age 15

i want to go to a show
the show is in the big city my suburb is outside of
my parents wont let me go
i tell them that NAME, NAME, NAME and NAME's parents are letting them go
they say they will think about it
the conclusion is that they let me go
there are a few conditions attached
related to cleaning my room and such

poem age 17

i like the name of the band
'broken social scene'
a lot more than i actually like their music
except for that one song called
anthems for a seventeen year old girl
yet i consider myself to be a fan

poams through the ages - will post more some other time

Poem, age 13

I cant believe I am going to high school
I am nervous about integrating with the other middle school
the girls from the other middle school are “bitchy”
My life would be so different if I went to the other middle school
I would have totally different friends
Things would be totally different
That’s sooo weird to think about

Hope I scored well on the MEAP test
I think I did because public school standards are low

Poem, age 14

I guess this is growing up
Everyone seems so old
This school is huge
Will I ever get used to this slash figure things out??

Poem, age 14

Me and my two friends are on the lake
It is night time
We are drinking
We are having a very meaningful conversation
It is the type of conversation we will bring up prefaced with “remember that one time” in the future
When we talk about it, we will say things like: and then NAME said OUTRAGEOUS THING

Poem, age 15

Freshman are dumb!!
I hate all of them
They are so small
Were we that small?
Sophomore year is totally pointless

I want my license
Then I can be free
I will be free to drive to the mall
I can go to the local dining establishment or coffee shop
And just hang out there with my friends


I have feelings for a boy
Does he like me?
Does he like me like me?
We chatted on AIM and he used a kissy smiley face
I think this means he just likes me
Should I tell him I like him like him
I know what I will do
I will tell him I like him like him on AIM
That way I can say:
"Sorry that was NAME and they logged onto my screen name"

Poem, age 16

I am in trouble with my parents
For drinking/drugs/smoking
They are being unfair to me
This situation is unfair
Life is unfair
Cant wait to turn 18

Everyday is the same
I hate this town!!
It is so boring
i will go to the local dining establishment
the one where I can smoke at
