rebel song

today i'm listening to: tame impala - half full glass of wine

you leave me no choice but to plot my revenge...

"the sun may rise in the east but at least it settles in a finer location"-RedHotChiliPeppers

i turn the music up

i got my records on

from underneath the rubble

sing a rebel song

don't want to see another

generation drop

i'd rather be a comma

than a full stop

-coldplay, every teardrop is a waterfall

"the greatest danger for most of us

is not that our aim is too high and we miss it,

but that it is too low and we reach it." - michelangelo

among other things,

you'll find that you're not the

first person who was ever

confused and frightened

and even sickened by human behavior.

you're by no means alone on that score,

you'll be excited and stimulated to know.

many, many men have been just as troubled

morally and spiritually

as you are right now.

happily, some of them kept records

of their troubles.

you'll learn from them-

if you want to.

just as someday,

if you have something to offer,

someone will learn something from you.

it's a

beautiful

reciprocal

arrangement.

and it isn't education.

it's history. it's poetry.

-J.D. Salinger, Catcher in the Rye

i dont' think you're ready for this jelly

"I feel too much. that's what's going on."

"do you think one can feel too much? or just feel in the wrong ways?

"my insides don't match up with my outsides."

"do anyone's insides and outsides match up?"

"i dont' know. i'm only me."

"maybe that's what a person's personality is: the difference between the inside and outside."

"but it's worse for me."

"i wonder if everyone things it's worse for him."

"probably. but it really is worse for me."

i seek help from my friend called the radio

"life i love you, all is groovy" - paul simon

"she generally gave herself very good advice,(though she very seldom followed it)."

built to fly

today I'm listening to: regina spektor - hotel song

come into my world

i've got to show, show, show you

come into my bed

i've got to know, know, know you

summer sunshine was fashionably late this year

i guess we can all make an entrance

because boy oh boy it's H.O.T. HOT

speaking of hot.....

mmm mmm good

"being a woman might be tough,

but being tough is sexy as hell." - mary kate olsen

"i cry out 'love keep your arms around me,"

i am a bird that's in need of grounding,

but i'm built to fly away,

i never learned to stay. - death cab for cutie

speaking of death cab.... the new codes and keys CD is delicious.

(though i wouldn't expect anything less)

not to mention the last track is total happiness to a tune

melting of cute yet?

"i don't say we all ought to misbehave, but we ought to look as if we could." - orson welles.

"did you ever,

in that wonderland wilderness of adolescence ever,

quite unexpectedly, see something -

a dusk sky, a wild bird, a landscape, so exquisite

terror touched you at the bone?

and are you afraid, terribly afraid

that the smallest movement,

a leaf, say, turning in the wind,

will shatter it all?

that is, i think, the way love is,

or should be:

one lives in beautiful terror."

"t'ain't no sin to take off your skin, and dance around in your bones" - tom waits
