now i don't want to beg you baby. for something you could never give.

a friend told me to watch this trailer... i can't stop thinking about it...

Monday, October 4

they don't wonder why they are or when their days will start. they feel at peace.


i am currently laying in bed wearing a hat under 3 covers... it is so cold.... and i have a sore throat... not cool.


i am also stressed to a level that doesn't even make sense...
i did have a really fun weekend. the third really fun weekend in a row. it is beyond time for me to feel this way- getting on with my life, that is.

i spoke bad poetry.

it is the first day of october. there are two reasons why i wrote such an obvious statement: 1. october is my favorite month. 2. october signifies fall (to me).
i celebrated this day by catching up on project runway and listening to a mix i created just for this day....
bon iver- roslyn
all my friends- broken social scene
rococo- arcade fire
a rush of blood to the head- coldplay
each works- colour revolt
hard as nails- peter wolf crier
i will always- the cranberries
5/4- sunny day real estate
never meant- owen
little faith- the national
rest my chemistry- interpol
boyfriend- best coast
untitled 8- sigur ros

happy fall.

Wednesday, September 15

half the time. if not all the time.

currently:
listening to the colour revolt on repeat
reading a mass amount of articles on literacy practices
thinking about what i'm wearing to the "mad men" birthday party (for one of my room mates) this weekend
stoked about getting internet and cable tomorrow
wanting a bag of peanut butter m&ms

i'm really interested in the idea of global citizenship (as i have alluded to in previous blogs). i am currently reading a book on ikeda's philosophy of peace, which discusses global citizenship at length. last night, i read something that i am still thinking about... maybe you should too....
"if a religion is worthy of the name, and if it is one that can respond to the needs of contemporary times, it should be able to nurture in its followers the spiritual base for becoming good citizens of the world."

what does being a "good citizen" mean? is it essential to be this way, to be "good"?
don't you just want to read about this all the time? i love it!
