Brüno was awesome, Harry Potter was awesome. Not enough people dressed up. Which was sad. :(


Apparently lj no longer shows any posts on your friends page that are older than two weeks? And then they didn't bother to say anything about it.



I need a new camera. Fact.

I'm so happy about hombre lobo
yes yes yes

I'm thinking we should dress up in light summery clothes and take a trip out to Kensington after I hunt down our old polaroid (and see if it works, get film, switch to 35mm if needed, etc.) and we can picnic and play games and have awesome times and go for walks all over and it'll be generally awesome. Who's in?

This is mostly for me, so I can keep track of things, and that sort of thing

• Full seasons 1 and 2 rewatch of Chuck
• Long weekend in New York
• Wisdom teeth out
• Shit ton of going outside
• ...exercise?
• New music new music new music
• Reread Atonement
• Read Saturday
• Apply for spring semester in Bonn, look up classes, costs
• Sell textbooks back
• Buy a copy of Wreck This Journal, Alas I Cannot Swim, For Emma, Forever Ago, Chuck S1, and/or Arrested Development
• Get a new bike
• Learn new things like chess or something
• Improve piano skills?
• Watch a shit ton of movies
• Look into getting a new camera to replace dead Fuji
• Visit lots of parks
• Take lots of pictures, digital and film

Sometimes I feel like the easiest goals are the hardest ones because I just never do them because they're so easy, and then they never get done
other times I try and do something that seems easy enough to accomplish but I end up having to rethink, rearrange, redo, blahblahblah blah blah only to have accomplished nothing further

if there's one thing I've been thinking about lately, it's the fact that I NEED A JOB

so tomorrow starts the official job hunt

I wrote this on my sisters wall and she seemed to really enjoy it:

I've come to the conclusion FOXNEWS is crying in the corner now that their beloved is gone

and that they're frantically searching for a way to feel better
(ie they're finding as much scotch as they possibly can)

but not really. because for them that'd be a sin

along with reporting actual facts



¡¡HAPPY OBAMA RAMA RAMA INAUGURATION DAY!!

1. When I laugh I cough like I have emphysema
2. I'm about to go to bed
3. Switching back to german was like putting on a comfy sweater, familiar and wonderful
4. I need seasons three and four of X-Files like, now
5. Every person I sat by today inched as far away from me as they could get
6. Hats can look smaller online than they really are

I'm sick! The common cold can explode for forever.

I WANT TO SEE GRAN TORINO.
My only chance to see it is tomorrow, because I go back to Western on Sunday.

It just looks so good
