well that would be giving it away, wouldn't it? |
] |
open your Winamp, iTunes, etc.
put it on random.
pick your favorite lines from the first 20 songs that play.
post and let everyone you know guess what song the lines come from.
cross out the songs when someone guesses correctly.
1)Kiss you on the brain
In the shadow of the train
Kiss you all starry-eyed
My Body swinging from side to side Anyone Else But You -Moldy Peaches (guessed by sophie)
2)play indie rock if that's what you want
quote Mike Leigh films it will turn them all on
I heard that you're going on a first date
well that's great A Sister's Social Agony -Camera Obscura (guessed by sophie)
3)Midnight
I'm drunk
I don't give a fuck
Wanna dance
By myself
Guess you're outta luck
4)At this rate we can't keep up
but I sure can't just sit still.
5)spin me 'round again
and rub my eyes
this can't be happening
when busy streets a mess with people
would stop to hold their heads heavy Hide and Seek -Imogen Heap (guessed by sophie)
6)I went looking for my darling, I went looking for a sign
And I found her in the morning, somewhere in the back of my mind The Wrong Girl -Belle and Sebastian (guessed by sophie)
7)I am here i am here i am here
and i'm true
i am true i am true i am true
you will see i'm spinning i am spinning
and i swear
i'm not kidding i'm not kidding
8)In the end I win every time
This ink remains
Sour tastes prevail as you play back the tape machine.
9)Oh this party got go on all-
I see you baby, shakin that ass
Shakin that ass
Shakin that ass
10)But it never made sense to them anyway,
Could you imagine if when they turned their backs
They were only scratching their heads.
Cause you simply deserve the best.
And I don't blame you I don't Blame you -Cat Power (guessed by sophie)
11)I'm gonna tell you what i'll do
I'll break your face in two
I'll spread your teeth and blood all over the neighborhood
I'll be rude, i'll be rude, so rude
12)He could be cool and cruel to you and me
Knew we'd put up with anything
I want to hurt him
I want to give him pain
I'm a roman candle
My head is full of flames Roman Candle -Elliott Smith (guessed by sophie)
13)Destroy me this way
Anything that may desert you
So it cannot hurt you
You only have to look behind you
At who’s underlined you
14)I'm so glad you're here
here with me my dear
'Cause you said that you loved me
and you said that you need me
and I say that I'm alright
15)and now you're looking up at me but the woman's pulling me inside
and we're finally smiling but we have nowhere left to hide and seek
keep searching
but i'm still spinning
and it's getting dark outside / come out wherever you are
16)And popping through pictures
Have little use, fulfill no basic need!
17)But she won't keep on waiting for
You without a doubt
Much longer for you to sort it out.
18)Measure in time by the bottle, and I've had more than a few
I'm standing up to get outta here, I'm standing up for myself now and this is long overdue
19) I knew that word!
I knew that word!
GOD DAMN IT.
This is such a calamity
20)Back when
We were the latest around
We lined and we painted this town
The faces are green and they don't know what they've done

so 2006. not really anything god awful happened, it was just kind of meh. some really great things happened, but for the most part is was just kind of boring. not to mention that i started sophomore year, which has (so far) rightfully earned its reward as most pointless year ever. but i did get 99th percentile on the PSATs without preparing for it. take that, standardized testing.
for some reason, my upstairs neighbors like to walk around the room right above mine at all hours. in heels. sometimes they move furniture. other than that, they're cool people.
i'm reading about the hitler youth. the book is very boring. i will tell pukky about that.
i need to find a bass teacher.

1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the next 3 sentences on your blog along with these instructions.
5. Don't you dare dig for that cool or intellectual book in your closet! I know you were thinking about it! Just pick up whatever is closest.
When she finally reassumed her squat on the pier edge, she seemed to do so with maximum regret, as if she had just been profoundly moved by one of the virtues of naval tradition closed to the public and small boys. She gazed out at the petty horizon of the lake for a moment, then seemed to remember that she was not absolutely alone. She glanced --venerably-- down at lionel, whose mouth was still open.
you win if you know what that's from (hint: it's not a full novel) without googling it because that's lame.

blah. i don't know why this whole thing bothers me so much. probably because i have to arrange my schedule around her stupid face and go somewhere else to that they can be alone and do whatever it is a boring woman and people like him do when they're alone.
so basically i've been hating him for the whole night.
i think it's the fact that i had to help him prepare for her arrival that i really hate. i don't so much mind the fact that i have to be out for the weekend, mostly that i have to be any part of it. and also that she's "sleeping" in my sister's room. actually, no. the fact that she's staying in my house at all is what really bothers me.
basically, she's going to have to be fucking amazing for me to like her. and from what my sister's said, she's not.
edit: okay, so last night i was just being a completely entitled baby. i realized this whole thing bugged me because some woman i've never met it staying in my house. so i'm meeting her tonight and i'm good with that.
and now i have to go see spelling bee and be out of my house soon.

so i can't explain how seriously amazing camp was. i loved every single minute. and, like sophie, i doubt i could do it any sort of justice if i wrote about it in here.
it was a whole lotta fun. everyone was so cool.
i mean, what other camp do you know of where you can walk down the hallway and first hear like 20 different bands and one of those bands will be singing about an alien invasion? right. i didn't think you'd think of one.
and for our performance at the showcase:

take that.
pilar is spending the night. we're getting sushi and watching movies and it will be great.

and i think my math final went pretty well. i'm thinking of a couple of things that i had the right answer, but i can't remember if i changed them or not, but i'm hoping i didn't because that would be bad.

So queer prom was...um...yeah.
2/3 of the time we were there, it was pretty much a drag show. pilar and i were very confused for much of the night. but! we looked excellent, if i do say so myself. oh. i just did.
but when we started dancing, we did normal emokid pilar and dana dancing, and 2 women from the dyke march said we were the cutest things they've ever seen! we won the award! lesbians think we're the cutest EVER!!! but then we got bored and i got uncomfortable because my sister was trying to make me uncomfortable, so we left and took a cab to pilar's house.
oh, and then we watched really bad soft-core porn from 1983.
the end.

But then they buried her with mimes

and only weeks before your mom all came and yelled at everyone.
