Yes, I'm still writing aren't I? Well, you either know what I'm into, or you don't. Ask me sometime if you are dying to know. But really, if you read this journal you'll have a pretty good idea. Hmmm...wow, I'm still going aren't I??

| Boo!
I'm in a funk lately....maybe it's seasonal affective disorder. Help me!!!
I was so tense that I was twitching & shaking today. It happens to me every once and awhile. I just feel out of place and uncomfortable and I kind of start to freak out. Anxeity maybe? I did some Yoga when I got home from class & I feel a little better.
Classes are much better than last semester.
I miss the road & really good shows. Nothing to look forward to. We're not sure about our Spring Break plans now because NO ONE IS TOURING!!! ::coughcoughRooneyIncubusPPOKGOcough:: Perhaps we'll go see Amber. Who knows??????????????????????
NO boy news...which maybe makes me just as sad as the no shows thing.
"Can't ya tell....I'm made of music. Can't ya tell? I'm made I'm made.......Run Suzy run, you don't need no shoes...Run Suzy run, you don't need no shoes! Can't ya tell...I'm made of music til I die..."----by Mr. Alex Greenwald.....oh, and the Phantom Planet DVD kicks Rooney's ass.
Jigga wha? Jigga who?
Wow....I'm weird today.

| Long time no talkie...
So, what's been shakin'? Not a lot here. Here are the classes I'm taking next semester. I'm uber excited about them!
Psychology, Renaissance thru Modern Art, Buddhism, Human Sexuality, Lyrics and Popular Song, and Shamanism and Spirit Possession.
A plethora of zany topics!
Everything is dwindling down....concert committee is dead(although office hours are still lively. lmao.), no shows for awhile, blah blah blah. I'm very bored.
What is everyone asking for for Christmas?? My grandma is bugging me about a list. I don't really want anything at the moment. Hmmm...what to do? I think I'll be getting a lot of giftcards this year. Exciting.
I ate like a hog at the Cissell family Thanksgiving yesterday. Mmmm...home cooked food. I plan on being a total pig the rest of the week as well.
Tomorrow--- NEW INCUBUS DVD & NEW U2 ALBUM!! 'The day is mine!"
We're picking up Amber from the airport on Wednesday!!! Hoorah! I can't wait to see her again!! It feels like it's been forever!
Who's going shopping on Friday??!?!?! BOOOYEAH! 7am I'll be out there still half asleep and freezing my ass off.
And a sidenote: Why the hell would Phantom Planet's new DVD have a parental advisory on it?? hmmm....makes me wonder what kind of crazy stuff they put on there. With them, you never can be sure...
Shame shame! Don't people know that this boy is only 20 YEARS OLD??! Where's he getting drinks??!! lmao....cute vest Taylor.

| Pardon the philosohical ramblings....I have had about 2 hours of sleep and am running on empty. But here I go anyway...
I could see Incubus EVERY NIGHT for the rest of my life and be one of the happiest people ever. I'm serious, yo. I cannot even describe how I feel at their shows. C'est tres bizarre! I have no control over my body. I know I probably look like I'm having a seizure or something, but I am so not worried about what everyone else is doing/and or thinking. The music just takes over my body. It's just this extreme feeling of connection--or unity with everything and everyone. It's such a transcendental experience, and ultimately, I feel like I am living for the moment. I think the world would be damn near perfect if everyone could figure out how to be in this state all the time. I suppose it is the same philosophy of Buddha:(and also explored by Ram Dass in his book "Be Here Now") Live for now. Don't worry about the past or the future.....BE HERE NOW. It is the essence of a good life. I try to remind myself of this as often as I can, and when I do, in that moment I am truly happy. (did ya catch the Incubus tie there?? hmm? :o)Try it sometime. Buddha was a genius.
And if you haven't seen "I Heart Huckabees" yet, go do so. It is somewhat silly at times, but it'll get you thinking about things. Sarah--I think you would definitely dig it. Plus Jason Schwartzman is excellent, as usual.
And another note: The British band The Music that is opening for Incubus right now is AMAZING! I am going to buy their cd today. The lead singer look like Jason Boyd from afar and he's got some mad skills when it comes to dancing. WOW. Check them out if you want some new music to listen to.
Ok, I'm off to office hours...to set some shit straight..
or talk about Tubgirl. By the way, who actually looked at that?? Did you vomit??? I almost did. lmao. She's now dubbed IU Union Board's unofficial mascot. Positively disgusting eh?!

| So, I'm in a computer lab about to do some boring experiment....but they're paying me money!! yeah! Between $20-$40---that's an Incubus ticket people! hoohah
So yesterday was pretty bad---I haven't been angry like that since last year(ahhh..memories). I was positively livid. As the "punk-ass kid"(I think his name is Mike??) told Cooper and I that he is Incubus's runner, I could feel my face getting hotter as he kept blabbing his mouth. Grrrr....I do not understand why the runner postions were filled by two other dudes that HAVE NOT seen Incubus 16 times....HAVE NOT gone to hang up flyers for the show like crazy and DO NOT even like their past three albums. MORONS!
So this evening, we shall let Jeffrey know how we feel. It's our right as die-hard Incubus fans to get an opportunity like this...right?!?!?! It's not like we can try for it again next year. Cripes!
Anyway---anger aside---I think that I have done a good thing in deciding to change my major back to what I started as. As of next semester, I will be in the Individualized Major Program with the self-created major of Music Business and Concert Production. Awesomeness. The lady in the IMP office suggested that I do an internship in LA...which got me thinking. So now, I've got to start looking into that.
I went to Karma to buy the new Elliot Smith album today and they are sold out! The dude said that they sold pretty soon after he put them out. But, it's ok because I can listen to it on Windows Media Player for free all day today! Hoohah | | |
| Bonjour mes amies!
I'm sitting in the Union Board office now w/ some funny peeps. The concert committee is definitely my place here at IU. Very cool.
Well, I'm noticing a trend in everyone's journals lately....completely depressing entires. I discussed this with my mom a few days ago---fall is depressing. Everything is dying, the weather is getting shitty, schoolwork is getting crazy---it depresses everyone. Don't believe me? Check out random people's journals. It's really interesting, actually. I'm not down on all the melancholy peeps, I'm feeling the same way. I'm just fascinated that it's a feeling that everyone is going thru at about the same time. Why?? Ponder that.
Anyway, Let's all cheer up!!! Seriously. lol. The glass is half full.
Yeah--it's that easy right?
I think I'm going to make a Live Journal account as well. "Just because I can". I'll get back to you on that. It's all Amber's fault...I don't like commenting on her LJ anonymously. Grr....::useyourXangaAmber!:: lol
