Darth Vader: I will have the penne a la arabiata.
Canteen Boy: You'll need a tray.
DV: Do you know who I am?
CB: Do you know who I am?
DV:This is not a game of "who-the-f*** are you," for I am Vader. Darth Vader. Lord Vader. I can kill you with a single thought.
CB: Well, you'll still need a tray.
DV: No I will not need a tray, I do not need a tray to kill you. I can kill you without a tray, with the power of the force which is strong within me. Even though I could kill you with a tray if I so wished, for I would hack at your neck with the thin bit until the blood flowed on the canteen floor...
CB: No, the food is hot, you'll need a tray to put the food on.
DV: Oh, I see, the food is hot, I did not realize, haha, haha. Oh, take the.. yes. I thought you were challenging me to a fight to the death.

what a wasted 12 hours.
the coolest thing about this song is the chord changes from line to line. DL it and check it out.
I'm your only friend
I'm not your only friend
but I'm a little glowing friend
but really I'm not actually your friend,
but I am
Blue canary in the outlet by the light switch
who watches over you
make a little birdhouse in your soul
Not to put too fine a point on it:
say I'm the only bee in your bonnet
make a little birdhouse in your soul
I've got a secret to tell
from my electrical well
it's a simple message and I'm leaving out
the whistles and bells
so the room must listen to me
filibuster vigilantly
My name is blue canary one-word
spelled l-i-t-e
My story's infinite
like the Longines Symphonette
it doesn't rest
Blue canary in the outlet by the light switch
who watches over you
make a little birdhouse in your soul
Not to put too fine a point on it:
say I'm the only bee in your bonnet
make a little birdhouse in your soul
I'm your only friend
I'm not your only friend
but I'm a little glowing friend
but really I'm not actually your friend,
but I am
There's a picture opposite me
of my primitive ancestry
which stood on rocky shores and
Kept the beaches shipwreck free
Though I respect that a lot
I'd be fired if that were my job
After killing Jason off and
countless screaming argonauts
Bluebird of friendliness
like guardian angels
its always near

make a little birdhouse in your soul
(and while you're at it
leave the nite lite on inside that
birdhouse in your soul)

ooooh. Finals. Watch out.
I have a final paper to write, plus another research paper. Then there are two finals, one Saturday and one Monday. Some homework due Wednesday. I am going to die.
But hey, in a week, this gloom they call Autumn Quarter will come to a close, and I will be done. Woot.
Actually, life here is getting better by the day. I definitely feel more connected. Saturday evening was fantastic, mostly because I had my a cappella concert. The show itself was okay - I always enjoy singing - but the part that made me just overjoyed was the fact that so many people I knew came to see me perform. There were, of course, my high school buds, like Manzanita and Teasa and Possum Boy, but there were also new friends, like Q and BB, and LilHusky, and the clustermates of the high school buddies, and it all made me feel so loved. I couldn't believe how connected and "at home" I felt. I love familar faces.
We chose Secret Santas today, and I got this guy I don't really know. Ah well, Circuit City GiftCard time! Guys, tell me if you wouldn't use that. Or perhaps Best Buy... which is better?
I finally bought the Billy Joel CD I've been wanting for forever and a day - it's called Fantasies and Delusions: Music for Solo Piano. It is absolutely gorgeous. It was only 7 bucks - a nice change from the $20 it was when it first came out.
Just got back a half hour ago from bubble tea with a guy I met in the DC++ hUb. Smart thing to do? Prolly not. Fun? Definitely. nice guy, that Brahms. Screen names are so misleading.
til later.
I tried to discover a little something to make me sweeter
oh baby refrain from breaking my heart
i'm so in love with you
i'll be forever blue
that you give no reason
you know you're making me work so hard
that you give me no soul
i hear you calling
oh baby please
give a little respect to me
and if I should falter
would you open your arms out to me
we could make love not war
and live with peace in our hearts
i'm so in love with you
i'd be forever blue
what reason could drive a man to forsake his lover
that you tell me no soul
i hear you calling
oh baby please
give a little respect to me

another reason to go to USC: the acapella is better. however, I did talk to my small group director today, and he's heard a lot of the BOCA stuff, and wants to do more pop stuff (if not all pop stuff). plus, small group is significantly better than the large group. So. yeah. there's hope.
know what's fun? late-night prank calls using sound boards. we haggett people are such dorks. :)
k, well, I've successfully stayed up until after 1 AM for the third night in a row now. I really need to break this cycle - if I keep it up I'll get sick again. my roommate said I'd probably get pnemonia. Sounds accurate to me.
although she's none the wiser
although we've barely met
i can recognize her
from the treatment that I get
so it's my duty to advise her
if she breaks the rules i've set up
although I'll admit it hasn't happened yet
i believe she's lying
i trust her to undermine my faith in her in time
i have every confidence that she'll dismantle mine
given time
as sure as she is sitting here
she's sure that she's awake
as soon as we're committing
we're admitting our mistakes
so of course it's only fitting
that the course we're going to take
is drawn and we're apart and slamming on the brakes
i believe she's lying
i trust her to undermine my faith in her in time
i have every confidence that she'll dismantle mine
given time
that's a given

haha! I got away with TWO audio posts! you guys , if and when you call it, keep pushing "1" and get more posts! this is good fun.
yeah. Thanksgiving. I was happy to be with family and friends. At the same time, I now realize I could never spend an entire summer in Oly anymore, unless I'm working. It's too much.
Weird. That's how I feel.
turn down the lights, turn down the bed
turn down these voices inside my head
lay down with me, tell me no lies
just hold me close, don’t patronize
don’t patronize me
‘cause i can’t make you love me if you don’t
you can’t make your heart feel something it won’t
here in the dark, in these final hours
i will lay down my heart and i feel the power
but you won’t, no you won’t
‘cause I can’t make you love me if you don’t

please, PLEASE open up new A sections for Chemistry 152. PLEASE.
I'm hoping home will allow me to get some good sleep. Ah, home... I love you.
close your eyes
and take your last breath
rest your head and sigh
the end is the beginning
and everyone between
some lost, some lost
and you won't feel a thing
and you won't recall
anything at all

You wouldn't believe the bags under my eyes. Really, they're like their own entity or something.... like frickin' rings on a planet. My cold won't let me sleep at night... one evening it'll be a stuffy nose causing my misery, and then the next night I'll be hopped up on Sudafed and it's my cough that's preventing me from attaining sweet oblivion. It won't go away - it just likes to change up the symptoms so it's not just the same old crap every night. How thoughtful.
Cannot wait to get home and see my family and friends. I visited some new buddies over in Bremerton this weekend, and I loved the feeling of being at home. Car rides instead of long walks in the cold. Homes instead of dorm rooms. Denny's instead of late-night chicken strips and fries at T-Caf. It was a nice break. O-Town will feel 100 times better, but Bremerton was a nice appetizer.
Three days. Until then, I have stuff to do (German paper due in a little over an hour). Gotta get to work. Later dudes.
(no music right now - there will be time later)

reasons why I should have gone to USC:
1. my football team wouldn't suck
2. i'd die slowly of pollution rather than continuous colds, which sounds like a better way to go out
3. maybe I'd get shot in one of the nearby 'hoods and the misery would end sooner
4. I bet their registration doesn't suck and they offer CLASSES that people NEED
5. the weather, while being monotonous, would be warm at least
6. i'd be away from annoying high school drama
7. i'd live in honors dorms, with people i know how to socialize with
8. I could wear less clothes, which means less laundry to do
9. two words: private school
10. the grass is always greener. I guess that's the bottom line.
reluctantly crouched at the starting line
engines pumping and thumping in time
the green light flashes, the flags go up
churning and burning, they yearn for the cup
they deftly manuver and muscle for rank
fuel burning fast on an empty tank
reckless and wild, they pour through the turns
the ? is potent and secretly stern
as they speed through the finish, the flags go down
the fans get up and they get out of town
the arena is empty except for one man
still driving and striving as fast as he can
the sun has gone down and the moon has gone up
and long ago somebody left with the cup
but he's driving and striving and hugging the turns
and thinking of someone for whom he still burns
he's going the distance, he's going for speed
she's all alone in a time of need
because he's racing and pacing and plotting the course
he's fighting and biting and riding on his horse
he's going the distance

REGISTRATION SUCKS!!!
There are NO English classes open. This means I am probably going to take German for another quarter, which isn't a bad thing, it's just that I really need to take English comp. Also, there are only evening chem classes available. That REALLY sucks, bigtime.
Ah well, next quarter. It'll be great. I'll be registering as a sophomore, so I'll beat out all those freshman fools. Yay.
cuz I gotta have faith

it was cool. I've never seen such late-night, in-the-streets, shirtless, spontaneous revelry as I saw tonight. But then, of course, I've never been to Mardi Gras.
It'd probably be a good idea for me to get some sleep. Like now. But I have registration in 3 hours and I'm pretty sure that there aren't going to be any classes open, so I'd better start panicking now.
later dudes.
I don't mean to be so strange
but my life just took a change
you're amazing, i'm attracted
but I'm terribly distracted
and I'm trying to be verbal
oh back into this circle
cuz I just found someone special
and that's really something special
if you knew me
nice to meet you anyway

yay for care packages and thanksgiving. boo for chemistry and midterms. also finals. and rap. ewwww rap.
yay for sealab 2021! download it or watch it on adult swim today!
that's what the majority of my winter break is going to consist of. Adult Swim. Nightly. Hoo boy.
can I also get a "yay" for "la creme" yogurt. yes, you, sir, there in the pink hat. oh, no sir, I only meant the peach flavor. I really don't know about the others, although I've tried banana and it is quite tasty as well, but that was a while ago.
I used to have to feed "la creme" to a 2-year-old that I babysat for a lot. you would think that would leave a bad impression. but it really is tasty yogurt.
perhaps I should stop leaving random worthless crap on my blog and get back to the chemistry due in 2 hours? mebbe.
oh and my brother signed with WFU. And there was much rejoicing. check it out.
later, y'all.
it's a picture perfect evening
and I'm staring down the sun
fully loaded
deaf and dumb and done
waiting for sedation to disconnect my head
or any situation where I'm better off than dead
