Oh God, Originality

hey there.

so I forgot to mention how the Why? concert was. Amazing. In every sense of the word...ever. It was so good. Man. It was really one of the best shows I've been to. Also, Mt. Eerie was really good. It was just this one guy who's doing a 'music project' and he sat cross-legged on stage with two volunteers from the audience keeping his smoke machines going. and the lights made them look all colorful. the smoke was like...like the gasoline you see on black pavement that has leaked out of someone's car and looks like liquid rainbow but as a gas...if that makes sense. idk. it was neato.

hmmm...idk. had my first exam in sociology. wasn't too too bad. was alright.

English next. i have to hand it to my English professor. she says we have to do a Toulmin analysis for Wednesday, she described how to do it, and not once did the idea "this is an essay. yuck, gross, barf" cross my mind. it seemed/seems like a no-biggie assignment. that is freakin amazing. at any other time in my life the word 'essay' would bring up images of me staring frustratedly at my blank Word document with my clock (that doesn't blink) blinking how early in the morning it is. but not this one. nope.

went to the library and read "Real Punks and Pretenders" for Sociology. Its this 27 page analysis of the punk counterculture in america. it really didn't teach me anything i didn't already know from attending all the shows i've been to. and really, that's mostly how the lady did most of her research: going to this local bar that had a once-a-week punk night so that bands and stuff could go and play and punks could chill out all together and stuff. it's really the same with the indie/hipster/scene-ish crowd i encounter usually. eh

sleepy.

man, people, man.
there's two people who are two of the most pretentious people i've ever encountered. (theres actually one other person but that's besides this point). i like myspace. one of the main reasons i like it is because of these charlatans who make it points to post bulletins when they're feeling most snug and knowledgable. i don't know why, but i'm simply fascinated by them. such little self-awareness in two not-so-different people. they're relationship to each other is a bit ironic but i can't say because it would totally give away who they arrrr.

for example. this person likes making broad, general statements with implications that those statements are original in any freaking way. i love it. one person philosphy book right there, it's great. it's an art. you know, that's what it is. i am simply a ostentatious-people appreciator. mmm.

okay well i'm done ranting. i did this instead of that english assignment, huzzah!
