Mr. Darcy, My Love!

Just watched bridget jones. I wont say anything about it except that my heart did go all aflutter everytime they called him Mr. Darcy instead of Mark, or Mark Darcy. Colin Firth was on the radio this morning and I damn near ran off the side of the road when I heard his voice. As I told sadaf.. the clouds parted and the sun cast its rays upon the earth, I saw stars before my eyes and somewhere in the distance I heard a choir of angels singing. Oh Mr. Darcy, love me love!

I did like the previews especially In Good Company.

I have this paper in pol sci that can't be more than 2 pages. Um, I'm sorry but my HEADING is like two pages. And is 2 pages even WORTH writing? I mean, what's the point? You can hardly begin to scratch the surface of a topic. And when I asked my teacher about the length, he started (this is the teacher that likes to hear himself talk, if you remember) to lecture me about how I have to learn how to follow specific guidelines because at the university level professors are really strict...blah..blah..blah. Whatever. So I wrote my paper the way that I wanted and it turned out about 6 pages. And so I had to CUT 4 pages. hahaha FINE want a paper that doesn't make ANY sense, FINE.

I went to watch the San Diego Symphony on sunday with lotous-flower and it was quite amazing. There was this CRAZY violinist and I watched her in awe. Her fingers would fly soo fast and for a fleeting moment I thought about how easily her fingers could bleed. It was kinda morbid, I know. Copley was very pretty inside---and during the last part there was an elderly man who started to snore. Pobresito! Oh, and these snotty old rich couple tried to sneak up to better seats, and threw such an attitude with one of the ushers who I think, was older than they were. But they were SO RUDE so then the main usher lady came up to them and bitched them out. they tried sneaking into the row lotous and I were in so we were trying to listen in on the yelling while trying to look like we weren't listening. That was kinda hilarious.

Sadafs birthday was a semi-disaster. I KNEW we shouldn't have taken her mom and sisters to watch alfie!! I didn't even get to go to the dinner I helped plan, and the surprise element was totally not present. I guess things righted themselves in the end, but man, what a way to spend your birthday! whatever, we're watching finding neverland on friday, and I'm watching bridget jones 2 on saturday so all that remains between us and our loves is this WEEK. please week, pass by quickly.

I got a 1 am call from sonya expressing her DELIGHT on getting sbtb dvds in the mail. In my head, it was weird, but I couldn't sleep anyway.

I think, you should be happy for me that I deleted some messages.

i haven't written in so long!!!

this weekend was a lot of fun. friday was amy's 21st birthday get-together thing so we had dinner and hung out at her apt. there were many funny moments. saturday and sunday i went to All Tomorrow's Parties at the Queen Mary in Long Beach.

-- writing this feels really awkward and i just realized why. i'm taking science classes so i've completely forgotten how to write. nothing is flowing. yet i shall continue --

Saturday was pretty cool. we saw Sefjan Stevens on the small stage on the ship and then headed over to the main stage for The Walkmen and Modest Mouse. Modest Mouse was pretty cool and then we saw Lou Reed. I really liked the Velvet Underground stuff, didn't appreciate the spoken word (Ecssstaaacyyyy) so much. it was such a freaking long day.. basically standing up from 5 until 12, inhaling soo much nasty stanky pot.

Sunday was awesome. We sat around on the grass duing Stephen Malkmus (and the Jicks), observing "Polly-Pocket"-like indie couples. they looked like little fairies. everyone was so "different". i almost felt like i was in the 60s. then we prepared ourselves for 6 hours of standing in one place and The (freaking) Shins came out. Listening to them was definitely a spiritual/sexual experience. The sound kind of enveloped me and all of the instruments just blended together--- okay i am not going to try to explain or describe it. but it was beautiful in many ways and i freaking love The Shins. Then Built to Spill came on, and they were pretty good. pretty mellow. Then we stood around awaiting The Cramps and we had no idea what to expect. They came out and they were a bunch of freaks. they loooked like they drank blood and hung out with vampires but they were v. funny and cool. we got stuck in the mosh pit and joined in on the insanity just to survive. yay for Satan music! Finally Wade & The Flaming Lips came out. it's almost impossible to describe and i pity those who have to write concert reviews and such for amazing performances. Highlights include Wade's psychadelic mic-camera, the anti bush propoganda, the Yoshimi sing-a-long with the nun, gigantic balloons, animal costumes, and The Bubble. it was just a different dimension (or something) so i won't bother trying to explain further.

Well the concensus is that it sucks to be back to class, life, reality. it's like all i have left is this hot pink wristband (and the memories of course).

Oh, my birthday was spent well. Thank you so much to all who contributed to it-- i don't mean like, contributed to my birth, but to me having a good day. i really do have the most wonderful friends and family on the planet!!! I can't wait until thanksgiving !!!!!!!!!

this is the week for catching up, since my 2nd wave of midterms hits Monday. i think i'll feel a lot better when i sit down for some hardcore studying. i don't think i've studied all quarter.

bye!
