Victorian era children will kill me in my sleep.

Their father was the devil.

They can see the future, and it involves you dying.

Don't let the dresses fool you, that poorly scaled terrifying doll used to be a person.

This last one, yeah, she's dead. They took pictures of dead people back then as a memorial.

Favorite Albums of 2009 ... So Far

1. Merriweather Post Pavillion by Animal Collective

2. The Pains of Being Pure at Heart by The Pains of Being Pure at Heart

3. Two Suns by Bat For Lashes

4. Bitte Orca by The Dirty Projectors

5. Fever Ray by Fever Ray


I could have written something about each of these albums, but I didn't really feel like it. Nobody read this anyway. This is more of a "favorite" than a "best" list, too. If I was taking 100% musical structure and creativity in to account, for example, Bitte Orca would be number two over the relatively humble Pains of Being Pure at Heart. But it sure doesn't make me as excited as when I hear the opening happy chords of "Come Saturday". If you haven't heard any of these, then you should.

"Oh my achin' hands, from rakin' in grands and breakin' in mic stands." ~ Madvillain.

I really like that quote from Rhinestone Cowboy by Madvillain, mostly because it is the complete opposite of me.

Anyway, I'm pretty bored, and it's late, so I'll write something. I'm not exactly sure what yet, but I'm hoping it will come to me as I type this sentence out. Not yet, still nothing, oh wait.

So I was walking down the hallway at school last year, and I overheard two girls talking, walking in the opposite direction from me. The strange thing about it is, the only thing I heard them say before they turned the corner was "it will feel better if you put mayonnaise on it."

That really got me thinking, like "What is she putting mayonnaise on?" And also "Were they playing a joke on me?" I doubt it, because they looked like they were pretty into their mayonnaise-as-miracle-cure discussion. But those kind of things where my mind just loops in circles looking for a rational answer to a problem I know I'll never figure out bugs me. Maybe the girl had a strange rash that itched less when mayonnaise was applied. Maybe she used mayonnaise as some strange beauty secret. I have no idea, and I guess I never will. Its like one of those avant garde movies where the ending doesn't happen like it should, like the character doesn't solve the mystery, and win. I'm like that, except I'm not being shot in black in white or speaking French.

Well, that was my interesting story for the evening. Goodnight.

I enjoy Wavves, and I like his new song, a lot. Its called Mickey Mouse, and I think its a bit more mature than his previous songs. Kinda like Animal Collective, with lots of tape fuzz.

Mp3 of Mickey Mouse.

I'm really in the mood to write something. I don't even know what, so I'll start with my life.


I feel like there is a lot of potential for new friends in my life right now. There are some old people that I pushed out of my life that have changed enough to let back in. There are still those that I was very close to but now can't even stand to be around, however. Its not like I hate these people, but I just think its better if we didn't see each other. Like a divorce, its sad but its good for everybody in the long run. If I continued being friends with them, I would just be pretending, which wouldn't be fair to anybody. I couldn't handle going up to these people and saying "I don't want to have anything to do with you. Have a nice life!", so I just randomly stopped talking to them, which is my only regret. So far no horrible things have come out of my random abandonment, and avoiding them has been successful.


I've done this a few times, and I don't know why. I just need to start judging my friends really hard before I make a commitment. But people grow apart as they mature, and its impossible to predict. Oh well, I'm just looking to the future, and its looking really great. I've got so much in my life to be thankful for. I only need to find more synonyms for "people" so I can write without giving names less awkwardly.


Annnd I have a new band: http://www.myspace.com/magininpublicplaces
We're cute, and Harry Potter related. Check us out.

Yeah.

So I haven't updated this in a few months. Its not like anybody reads this anyway. I suppose maybe there's a random stalker somewhere waiting with bated breath for my next post. I apologize to them. I also suppose if they liked what they saw before, which was music, they might want some more.


I really like Bat for Lashes, yeah.





When the song starts picking up at 1:09 my face explodes.

So, I love Bjork, a lot. She is so much more than an Icelandic person who wears swan dresses, she is one of the most experimental and greatest artists of the past 20 years.


Here she is in her old band the Sugarcubes, singing in Icelandic. But when that chorus hits, her high pitched screech could melt the heart of anybody.

M.I.A.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wasn't at Coachella 2009, but if I was, I would've died from this.

I am obsessed with some Sri Lankan hip-hop.

The Pains of Not Seeing The Pains of Being Pure at Heart

Okay, so I was going to see The Pains of Being Pure at Heart on April, 28. However, the universe is trying to prevent me from seeing a good concert currently, so I can't. They're playing in a tavern. So I'm not allowed to go, and it would probably be really scary anyway.

Over-Exposed Photograpy

So I was playing with my camera, and found a strobe light in a skull, and this happenned:

Pretty hardcore.

And my header picture, I took that. I think its cool.
