Just one more year.
Friday. 5.22.09 9:41 pm
Please, let me get through another school year. Then it won't matter. I'll be off to college, where I won't know anybody and nobody will know me. In some aspects, I want to start over. It's the perfect place and time. But in other respects, I will not change if I can help it. I'll still be me. I want to keep in touch with all the great people who've made me who I am. There are some great influences I've had and continue to have. My lunch table compadres. Most of my youth group. The guys from Movie Night. My friends I met at Clemson.

The list goes on, but I shan't go with it. The point is, I'm going to miss them.

Lateralus - Tool. A long song, and terribly boring for most people. This was my first taste of what I call "epic music" (of course). That is, songs that ask questions, are philosophical in nature, invoke images involving the subconscious, etc. Also, they tend to rely more on the actual instrumentation than on the lyrics themselves. From listening to epic music I've acquired a taste for good instrumentation, leading me to such bands as Dream Theater, and similar bands in the Symphonic Metal genre such as Kamelot or even Nightwish.

But this is my first. Even though it is not my favorite, it really holds a special place in my heart. Even if I don't always want to listen to it, I love this song. Shannon's the one who showed it to me. In fact, Shannon introduced me to a lot of music, even if I didn't like most of it. :3


Get a playlist! Standalone player Get Ringtones


I posted the lyrics, actually. It was a while ago, but I dug up the link for you guys. :D

I'm Excited

It's the Harvest Moon tonight, and I'm happy. I don't know why; tonight just seems like a crossroads of all my favorite events. I love full moons, I love fall, (I lvoe winter more,) and I just got back from a party. With about 10 girls. We had a blast, playing a word game, messing with the squishy toilet seat, jumping on the trampoline in the bitter cold, and just being wild. I think that girls are awesome when you aren't dating them, then more awesome mixed with teh suck (thanks for the phrase ikimashokie!). Lol. Alas, I do not have pictures from this event. I did, however, post about this event from last year; here's the link.

So, I did a bit of research. It turns out that being a werewolf isn't the only thing connected with a full moon. It is also connected with crime, suicide, mental illness, disasters, accidents, birthrates, fertility, and even the stock market. Although studies have been made, the things scientists find have nothing to do with human behavior. For example, during a full moon the average global temperature goes up the tiniest fraction. But nobody can figure out why the moon affects human behavior. Pretty weird. Read this and more at http://skepdic.com/fullmoon.html

Since there were no picture today, I leave you with an amusing story. I was watching CN2 at 6:30 today, (don't ask) and I noticed that the clip was being played over and over. I quickly got out my camera and filmed about 5 minutes (20 freaking replays) of the affair; if you're interested, you can watch it below. This went on for at least half an hour; when I got back from the party at almsot 11 tonight we turned it on to see the clip finally play all the way through. Had a good time under the full moon, how bout ya'll?

[video will not uplaod]

Ok, so somehow I filmed ten minutes without realizing it. And photobucket will only upload 5 minutes videos, which is a dissapointment. I don't want to host it anywhere else because those are public sites, and, well, I don't want a 10 minutes bore fest associated with me. I'm already a bit un-popular on you-tube...

And I just realized that I like the new moon too. It's pitch dark in my house, which is always fun. Plus, you get a full moon during the day. The Mid-day Moon! Since I didn't keep my promise about the video, and it would have sucked anyway, here's something I found my myspace:

Another post without a title

TWO epic events:

Yesterday, I went to Kendal's house. We ate dinner, watched Untraceable, had a bonfire with S'mores...it was v v v v fun. Her little brother threw gasoline on the fire to get it started, and that was pretty exciting. Nearly as exciting as watching that movie. Very potent message they had. Yup.

Today I was at the pool for 4.5 hours with AJ and the girls*. This was our first real outing since school got out (save the covert operation right after school), and we made the best of it. Papa John's pizza, soda, bratty little girls who make up stupid rules for Crosspool, teasing, cold water, and so forth. I only burned my shoulders, and only a little. Win.

I'll make a post on Paradigms later. It's purely philosophical, not really a lot of religion at all. Which means that everyone except for randomjunk, who doesn't care, should like it. Haha. Until then, my annoying little brother is pushing for me to get off. Good night!

*Keener, Kayla, and SuZZ.
