It's that time of year [Mar. 29th, 2007|09:47 pm]
[music |Just For Now - Imogen Heap]

Dear _____,
Okay, I don't know if you don't like me or if you think i don't like you, or if i even like you at all, but it would help if you'd let me try to figure out.
Peter

Dear _____,
If you're going to stay friends with me, don't make it fake. Either commit or leave, but don't keep sort-of hanging around and saying hi to me, it just makes me feel nostalgic.
Peter

Dear _____,
Yeah. Like you really need MORE ego. Congrats.
Peter

Dear _____,
You're by far my best and closest friend. Thank you so much for completely saving me this year from total insanity. I love you, you know I do- I don't see enough of you and i hate that work's getting in the way. Hopefully our schedules will clear up before you leave for the summer.
Peter

Dear _____,
It would be a lot easier to love you if our political/religious views weren't exactly the opposite. I'm doing my best to turn a blind eye to the parts of you that i don't like... but is that a healthy friendship?
Peter

Dear _____,
Don't like you anymore. Don't hate you anymore, either. But you still kind of bother me. And you look like a girl, too.
Peter

Dear _____,
TAKE SOME INITIATIVE. Defend yourself, speak up for yourself and your friends and stop acting like image is the only important thing! it's tiring.
Peter

Dear _____,
Okay, you're really hot and it's awkward cause you're dating my friend. So stop looking at me.
Peter

Dear _____,
Just because I'm gay and you don't like it doesn't mean you have any right to tell someone to stop talking to me. Stop fucking with me, or one of these days i'm just gonna take you out in the hallway.
Peter

Dear _____,
Conservative. Chorus teacher. So opposite. Get a new job, or i'll just vent my gay anger on you EVERY DAY.
Peter

Dear _____,
Wear white on the Day of Silence again and i will draw all over you in sharpie and then knock you unconscious and hang you by your feet from the cafeteria ceiling. Bitches never learn.
Peter

IF YOUR LIFE WAS A MOVIE, WHAT WOULD THE SOUNDTRACK BE?
So, here's how it works:
1. Open your library (iTunes, Winamp, Media Player, iPod, etc)
2. Put it on shuffle
3. Press play
4. For every question, type the song that's playing
5. When you go to a new question, press the next button
6. Don't lie and try to pretend you're cool...
7. When you're finished tag some other people to do it!

So. Mr. Vanderwoude (the very conservative, anti-gay NHS chorus teacher for all you out-of-town people) told, perhaps, the best story in the history of funny things today. He randomly started talking about a night he spent in a truck driver's house (whose name, we learned, was Lou) with a couple other 'straight' guy friends one night. It might have been the way he told it, but the way he explained how they shared a bed for the entire night made perhaps 99.9% of the class LOSE it. I mean, he did use sentences something like...

Gay sentence 1 = "I woke up after I heard some noises from above me and then a kind of wheezing sound"

Gay sentence 2 = "i looked at my friend from across the bed, and we just nodded."

and many more. regardless of the rest of the story, which sadly had (i assume) no gay sex involved, it was probably the best moment of my life. It might have caused me my chorale membership though.

oh well. so funny.

From the first time I brushed your hand... [Feb. 24th, 2007|09:12 pm]
[music |"Oh, It Is Love" - Hellogoodbye]

"Guess That Lyric" Game
1. Put your playlist on shuffle.
2. Post lyrics from the first 20 songs under an LJ cut.
3. See who can guess the song title and artist. DON'T CHEAT.
4. When someone guesses the title and artist correctly, strikeout the song

1. "If I don't say this now I will surely break, as I'm leaving the one I want to take... forgive the urgency but hurry up and wait, my heart has started to separate."

2. "I heard that you were living well, but you don't look like you're living to me. Though the sparkle is gone, the smile is in place so that everyone watching can see- You've got them all convinced, but I know it so well that you could list your friends, but you can't count on them."

3. "I like where we are, when we drive in your car. I like where we are... here. 'Cause our lips can touch, and our cheeks can brush, and our lips can touch here."

4. "Catch a star, if you can- wish for something special. Let it be me; my love is free. Sing a song, to yourself, think of someone listening. One melody, you're all for me"

5. Maybe it's intuition, but some things you just don't question, like in your eyes I see my future in an instant.

6. " These streets turn me inside out. Everything shines, but leaves me empty still. And I'll burn this lonely house down if you run with me"

7. "Gone away... who knows where you've been. You take all your lies and wish them all away. I somehow doubt we'll ever be the same- there's too much poison and confusion on your face... Can you feel it? I didn't mean it. Can I see you? What are we doin'? I think I love you, but I'm not sayin' nothing you don't know."

8. "Wear ideal shoes, get love from the dudes, 4 bad ass chicks from the Moulin Rouge... We drink wine with diamonds in the glass, bottle case the meaning of expensive taste."

9. "La Lune trop bleme pose un diademe sur tes cheveux roux. La lune trop rousse de gloire eclabousse ton jupon plein d'trous."

10. "There's some things in this world you just can't change. Somethings you can't see until it gets too late..."

11. "The tension is here- Between who you are and who you could be... Between how it is and how it should be."

12. "Until you've seen this trash can dream come true, you stand at the edge while people run you through. And I thank the Lord there's people out there like you"

13. " She says days go by I don't know why I'm walking on a wire. I close my eyes and fly out of my mind, into the fire."

14. "Look at me now, will I ever learn? I dont know how but I suddenly lose control, theres a fire within my soul. Just one look and I can hear a bell ring. One more look and I forget everything."

15. (Obviously.) "My hopes are so high that your kiss might kill me... So won't you kill me? So I die happy. My heart is yours to fill or burst, to break or bury, or wear as jewelry, whichever you prefer."

16. "Please dont change, please dont break... the only thing that seems to work at all is you. Please don't change at all, from me to you and you to me."

17. "Don't stop, don't stop the feet. Won't stop, won't stop the beat and GO." this one's hard. hm.

18. " You wait, wanting this world to let you in, and you stand there in a frozen light in dark and empty streets."

19. "I just had to live, and I wanna give. I'm completely positive. I think this time around I am gonna do it like you never knew it."

20. "Looking for the right one, you line up the world to find where no questions cross your mind..."



Okay. Other than this, I'm freaking out because i have no idea where Isabel is and she said she'd be here over an hour ago and she wont pick up her cell or home phone.

Izzy. Where are you?

i don't know.

as of friday night, my life is a gay soap opera (i never got why they called it that...)

i just wish i hadn't been so dumb. well, things are better now. i think.

and, of course, i believed what ryan and nicky told me, and now i feel like an idiot (whether or not it was true) because i tried talking to him on facebook. oops.

and i know things are so much harder for people elsewhere and i know shit is happening to the entire world that nobody even wants to think about but it just really sucks to feel alone. and i don't even mean that in a relationship sense. i mean, really just alone. and i've been feeling a little better lately, and i hope it will stay.

not much else to say- off to work on national history day

What Comes is Better Than What Came Before... [Jan. 31st, 2007|11:17 pm]
SO much to go through, so obviously i'm not even gonna talk about all of it. Journalism was amazing, and now it's over (!)- really, though, i made so many random friends i wouldn't even know otherwise. kind of awesome

oh, and experimental writing? don't even get me started, i have so so much to say about that class. i don't know, it's just like i felt so open in that class, like it was the one place where talking about myself actually wasn't taboo.

:).

other than that, it's been a normal year. the musical (West Side, obviously) is almost at tech week, so... help me. and work (oh yeah, last time i wrote an entry i didn't even have a job...) is good, even though i haven't gone in forever just because of time constraints and a capella concerts and dance performances. etc.

also, i thought for i while i might go to spain for a year... but that kind of fell through because it was like 30-40 GRAND. ahh still pissed. anyway, most importantly, the valentines BAGLY is coming up, and i really want something interesting to happen this time... no more wallflowering.


so that's all happy and good. goodnight, i'll probably write again in like... another 6 months!!

i guess it's luck but it's the same hard luck you've been trying to tame [Aug. 12th, 2006|12:50 pm]
[mood |chipperchipper]
[music |"Ghost of A Good Thing" - Dashboard]

SO. closing night and cast party tonight. should be nice :).

hm. life is pretty amazing right now. i mean, between really hot bassists and being around people who love you for 12 or more hours... nothing can top that. in other words, i'm really excited for tonight. especially for superlatives/skits.

so come see kismet! last night, $12 for students and seniors, $15 for adults.

by the way- this song really doesn't get enough credit

I guess it's luck but it's the same
Hard luck you've been trying to tame
Maybe it's love but it's like you said
"Love is like a role that we play"

But I believe in you so much
I could die for the words that you say
But i believe in you so much
I could die from the words that you say

But you're chasing the ghost of a good thing
Haunting yourself as the real thing
Is getting away from you again
While you're chasing ghosts

I guess it's luck but it's the same
Hard luck you've been trying to tame
Maybe it's love but it's like you said
"Love is like a role that we play"

But I believe in you so much
I could die for the words that you say
But i believe in you so much
I could die from the words that you say

But you're chasing the ghost of a good thing
Haunting yourself as the real thing
Is getting away from you again
While you're chasing ghosts

Just bend the pieces till they fit
Like they were made for it
But they weren't meant for this
No they weren't meant for this

Just bend the pieces till they fit
Like they were made for it
But they weren't meant for this

Chasing the ghost of a good thing
Haunting yourself as the real thing
Is getting away from you again
While you're chasing ghosts

I would still be on my feet [Aug. 11th, 2006|02:21 pm]
[mood |accomplished]
[music |"A Case Of You" - Joni Mitchell]

so the show was pretty good, forgot to mention this last night. there were things that could have been better, but the leads were fantastic and the well didn't completely break, so i guess it was a sucess.

anyway, off to do show #2... everyone come see

(and thank you alyssa for knowing exactly what i'm talking about all the time <3)

you just sort of wasted my precious time- but don't think twice, it's alright. [Aug. 11th, 2006|01:56 am]
[mood |apatheticapathetic]
[music |"Don't Think Twice, It's Alright" - Peter, Paul and Mary]

i HATE feeling pathetic, but even more i hate feeling pathetic for a stupid reason. or for something that's not worth my time. i really wish i was more sure of myself. or more talented, or smart, or suave... but i guess i have to settle for this. and in my struggle to try and make "this" acceptable, i guess that, somewhere along the way, i've lost sight of what's really supposed to be important . ugh.

and then of course i really don't like getting judged for actions rather than intentions.

in general, there are so many  things i wish i were, and wish i had, and i ALWAYS wish it were easier to articulate myself and i wish i had more self control in any aspect, and honestly, i just wish i could mean as much to anyone as they do to me. but it's never that simple.

not that that doesn't mean i'm not happy, just not quite satisfied.

(PS. i'm sorry if my livejournal ever seems depressed, it's the only place i feel comfortable expressing sad things.)
