People...think I'm... devoid, simply not real probably because all the fronts I put up. Much easier to do those than anything else. and somehow i get confused for someone else. an actual sadist or creep or someone who just isn't right and not as a person who is simply very defensive with levels. pretending to be is much easier than being and if everyone would shut up and listen or a moment the world would be quiet and calm and a better place. and people can't seem to get it that pressure and stress for some reason exist in excess in this society and its far too easy to send someone off the edge. so people can either screw off and let my life go wherever the hell its going, or take matters "into their own hands" and go do whatever and I'll just go away and leave everyone else alone. |

music: woman is the nigger of the world-John Lennon...offensive?
|
I made a country a while ago...it grows slowly and i check in once a week to impose some new crazy laws.
And I had a littel more respect for John Lennon before I found what I'm currently listening to.
The Dictatorship of Milanchiovellan is a huge, economically powerful nation, notable for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 564 million are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defence, and Religion & Spirituality. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 67%. A healthy private sector is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry.
Students and teachers are regularly stopped and searched for symbols of religious affiliation before class, people have to sneak out of the country in order to have sex, artists are jailed regularly and art-burning parties are common, and the country is preparing for war. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Milanchiovellan's national animal is the the dinosaur, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the coconut. |

Alright...1963 and in the UK...DAMMIT DAMMIT DAMMIT why can't I do that now??? That would be so cool. Hop on the Rock and Roll bandwagon of Beatle's and Stones and Hendrix and damn and take drugs and free sex in an enitrely consequence-free time period, always know that if I lived through the next trip I could invest in something I know will skyrocket...
You Belong in 1963 |
1963
If you scored...
1950 - 1959: You're fun loving, romantic, and more than a little innocent. See you at the drive in!
1960 - 1969: You are a free spirit with a huge heart. Love, peace, and happiness rule - oh, and drugs too.
1970 - 1979: Bold and brash, you take life by the horns. Whether you're partying or protesting, you give it your all!
1980 - 1989: Wild, over the top, and just a little bit cheesy. You're colorful at night - and successful during the day.
1990 - 1999: With you anything goes! You're grunge one day, ghetto fabulous the next. It's all good!

From afterschool today: an improv photo was taken. then at 4 we slit up and bought lunch/dinner/sugar so much sugar injected into everyone, met sandra (coach) at runnymede at 5 where her plan to get us to win was to shove more sugar down our throats...
a long time on the ttc... the bus we were on was put out of service because the doors opened while it was moving :(
but while we waited the entire team sung and danced the time warp, seriously creeping out the busload of stranded people waiting with us for hte next one.
finally got to Marc Garneau... had much fun doing nothing. Then we did warmpus and competition. THanks to Erin who carried us through on the "life" event we won by a few ppints. the judges were pretty harsh in the markings. the highest score (out of 100) was a 73 for our life performance. everyhting else was basically <65.
But we won at 260 points.
and I was on the bus at 7:30 today and I got home at 11 and i want to crawl in a hole and not come out until wednesday...which is why teh hell am i writing this i'm dumb. |

well i was going to update friday but some freaky thing happened with lj... let me see.
Friday: went home, did nothing for a while. my dad had left for owen sound. brother, mum and myself went out for thai *is proud of himself for using chopsticks, but realizes that the 5 glasses of water and pot of tea to account for the burning sensation in his mouth counteracts that*
Saturday: pretty much nothing. My dad got back, my basement is in ruins with reorganizing. Was mad at people for a while (no reason, just felt liek being mad)
today (sunday): long guitar/base jam with my dad. ACTUALLY DID MATH HOMEWORK: those sheets with the jokes oon them. Still don't know differnece between "substitution" and "addition".
Groupliness: I'm setting down some rules BUT I"M NOT COORDINATING ANYTHING:
1. IF at my house my parents would like to know a little bit in advance (2-3 days?) and also I'd have to do some begging/bribery cleanup
2. if not: decide WHERE, when and someone make a chart showing everyone's compatibility with the schedules. |

May my head rest in peace, for I have lost it.
It wandered 'way when I told it to shut up
And now I regret that.
The moment of peace wasn't worth it
But I hope somewhere it does as much good (and bad) to someone else as it did to me |

music: Twist and Shout-BEATLES
|
Well well well. I don't really know what to say.
School wise I came in late, felt groggy most of the day. Secret Santa was fun for the 5 minutes I was in. Kittie gave me a BEATLES book!!! However I'm not sure you looked through it because it has so much nudity and the author felt it relevant to show child pornography for "Strawberry Fields". But its Beatles, and all the other pictures and charicatures and quotes inside are awesome :)
I gave Hanna her Mary Poppin's Soundtrack. I tried Hanna I really did...
Got home, did massive amounts of housework. My relatives came over. Aunty/Uncle their two daughters (19 amd 15?) and we had a excellent dinner. Then forced entertainment from all the children and talking and whatnot. HTen they left, more housework for me and finally this.
Oh and as for possible meeting times is Friday ok with everyone? Admittedly not so good to lose a Friday evening but hey its with friends... well. Apart from that weekends are ok but most families might book something on a weekend? |

mood:  tired music: Imagine- John Lennon

Well the wakup time wasn't so nice, 5:45 = bad. Then 2 hours of bus ride, more or less silent next to Hanna. Impossible to read book Shrek 2 blasting everywhere. 6 hours of skiing. I spent 95% of the time on the baby hill. I went on the "Waterfall" once, and it was crowded, and someone yelled "outta the way pansy" because apperntly for novice skiiers its not ok to go down a slope slowly once and you must simply rush off to your future of mangled limbs without dallying.
umm, I spent most of my time with Galen and Gabriele, who were worse at snowboarding than I was at skiing. On my last run I failed to stop by either catching a ski on something or on itself. Anyway I dragged my poles by the wrist straps, lost a ski and skidded 10 feet to the bottom, in front of everyone else. Apart from that a bloodless journey. My knee hurts a little.
The way back played "School of Rock". I tried to sleep. The chairs were baly designed. There was no other position than upright sitting and any attempt to lean on something would have been futile (the window was shaking and cold; Hanna might not have appreciated my need for sleeping support)
Now home, must do homework. Get up for school tomorrow. Yell at Jenn (Asian one) for calling me what she did in her journal. OH, wait I have anthro with her tomorrow, and all those theories I was suppoed to write down from Freud, about the sexual habits of toddlers.
LASTLY: I have the CORRECT SHEET MUSIC for IMAGINE by JOHN LENNON. After listening to the song several times, I have concluded that apart from the main piano riff it has a bass part, drums and and violin. I say we do this. The piano part is fairly easy, the bass and violin simply follow the tonic of the current chord structure. |

Well after improv I went to Thomas's with Phil and Andre. I registered on the forums and played a few video games, then I left. We caught the bus to Runnymede Station, and they went their Eastboundednest way and I went solo against the West.
Well when the train comes I get on, and move to stand against a pole, then looking around I realize that its not crowded (Monday at 6???) and decide to sit down. I sit one across from a 60-65 year heavy old dark skinned man.
He asks me the time. His breath smells heavily of tobacco and he speaks very low and in an accent I don't recognize. After getting him to repeat it I tell him. Much of what he says I have to listen to twice to understand.
A few moments later he tells me I am a good man. I mumble something me not being used to recieving a compliment from a stranger on the ttc. A moment later he asks me where my coat is. I state that its too warm to wear a coat and prefer a sweater. He then asks my age. I reply 14 and he asks me my grade and I say that I'm not comfortable to keep answering. I'm getting a little weirded by him.
Hes quiet for a little while. He then says that he has not seen his children in 5 years. I ask him "another city" and he says no they're in India. He then tells me I look like his son and shakes my hand before getting up to leave.
Realizing that it was Royal York I get up to and as I walk out he catches me and asks me to stay and talk for a little. I agreed (I still have no idea what happened in a clear sense) and we talk for a few minutes. His family is in Northern India, and that immigration takes time. Most of my speech is mumbled and short. After a few minutes he gets up, shakes my hand and does a cross between embracing and hugging me, telling me again I'm a good man and that I look like his son. He walks off to the back entrance. I'm too dazed to really make any intelligent moves, paranoic or otherwise and simply leave through the front entrance and get on the waiting bus.
I don't know what to say. I considered not posting this and writing instead as a poignant short story however I have neither the patience nor ability to write like that.
Any comments? Thoughts? Suggestion of getting on the ttc at 5:55 next Monday? |

Alright well Molly's party was fun. Galen and I got lost together trying to find it. Apperntly from Spadina theres Northwards (Spadina ROAD) and South (Spadina AVENUE) and Galen and I walked for an hour looking for the address on the Avenue. We walked through Chinatown, and into the Fashion district eventually stopping at Adeleide. Then when we found the address and it was a bridal shop Galen annouced his theory that Molly was a figment of our imagination.
A streetcar and two phonecalls to Katherine later we find her house (even though she didn't answer the phone when I called).
Not much to comment on the party. It was fun. Galen's new theory is that she is an alien communist because of all the "radical" left wing signs.
All the other guys (Ben, Dan, Galen) left at the same time. Once again I found myself outnumbered (Molly, Hanna, Joy, Jen) but wasn't tortured or forced to endure the Sound of Music again. (errr, no offense).
As for Groupliness Sunday (the day before school) if people want to come over for an afternoon jam/do nothing thats perfectly fine My parents are leaving around 3:30-4:00 but I'm thinking maybe start at 2ish and kick people out by dinnertime or have htem stay over for it and continue on.. People interested/coming. So far:
Joy
Jen (maybe)
Ben (maybe)
Hanna
Galen
Molly (maybe)
Comment if you want to come and I'll email you directions too. |

Ahh Well I'm in an ok mood. Well devious ok. Evil ok.
1. I got an electric bass today :D --? Fender 4 string, umm my dad know two guys who work at long and mcquades, 1 who is an awesome bass player (he picked out the model, and the best bass of the instore models of that type) and a guy in management... we apperently got a very good deal.
2. Molly's party, I have the vague idea of 8 at Thursday but where? I found out.
3. New Years: My mum says no. Bit of a change. I think its because many of my relatives will be at my house for a party and she wants me there. That and the "going home alone at 2am" story (I live near the lakeshore and there are some scary people) I'm incredibly sorry.
Well my dad talked to my mum and I'm coming now.
4. I got my secret santa gift. Hopefully the reciever enjoys it.
5. I'm a bit euphoric right now... and slighty off my head

mood: calm music: And Your Bird Can Sing- BEATLES

Well, today: woke up around 1:30, par for no school days. Found that although we had absolutely no christmas preperations whatsoever (no tree, no lights, no songs no decorations) i had a stocking stuffed full of candy. and a book. Stranger in a Strange Land. Oh and I also found out we had a turkey with awesome stuffing (jada's right stuffing equals awesome) and I had no problems eating it considering I abandonned my lack of meat eating at the two week mark, assured that I would starve to death if I continued with my family. But my mum did make some efforts.
tried to learn "and your bird can sing" riff, incredibly difficult, drove family nuts,
oh but I'm going to get an eclectic bass tomorrow, or sometime next week! My christmas/Birthday present!!!
thats pretty much it. watched "The Manchurian Candidate" last night, new version, similar to the old one, but different. better in some aspects (acting) worse in others (story) |
