summer is three weeks in and it feels fabulously unreal and at the same time I feel pretty lucid a lot of the time. that should probably translate to some sort of creative drive, but in the end i just end up watching a lot of Miyazaki and sitting outside. I can't complain.
So apparently it's been more than a month since I wrote here. since the end of may, i sailed through june with a singular drive to get out of school before my contempt for everything and everyone ate me alive. Also, sleep deprivation.
I don't know what to say about my sophomore year of high school. I remember the first few days of sophomore year when I thought that sophomorism came with a quirky indie appeal. In between naive freshman, and junior year, where as far as I can tell, literally nothing happens. It turns out that being a sophomore/16/insecure is actually a bit of a burden because it feels like everyone is doing stuff that you're not doing, and then other people have to rush in and pretend that they're doing it too, even though they're not, and it's all one big mess of guises and ego and affectations that weren't there so much before. I guess it isn't new exactly, but I reacted to it differently in the last few months. I don't know. I know I couldn't be much more typical for the most part, but I'm not socially...you know, I don't find it easy. And I don't have too many friends, and in my day to day life that doesn't bother me, being as introverted and aloof as I am comes with great defense against loneliness or something, but then in the grand scheme of things you get upset because you know you're just getting so behind everything else. And of course, then you're angry, because how dare someone else tell you that there's something less than average with how you are. That and you have to do labs and lose sleep and deal with talks about politics or things you don't know about and you don't have the backbone to just be alone a bit more and so on. A big ball of adolescence.
Now, that isn't there so much, and cause I've already done summer reading and didn't get any AP classes(thank god, in a way) I've nothing to do for another seven weeks or so. And I'm so fucking thankful for that.
I don't know anyone with a less interesting existence than mine? This has happened:
I went to my first Radiohead gig. It felt like a rite of passage. It's just something you do, you know, see Radiohead. And I like Radiohead, don't get me wrong! And even though the fuckers didn't play any of the stuff anyone likes, bar one thing from Kid A, and even though I couldn't see the stage at all, and the only refrain I got from Thom(bless him)'s 90-minute falsetto warble was a brief rant about Putin, and even though my lungs still haven't forgiven me I'm sure for all the second hand smoke, it was fun, and I recommend it.
Saw Gogol Bordello on a whim. Turns out, they're one of the best live shows I've ever been to. Since then, I carry the burden of knowing how tedious everything is apart from being a Ukrainian Romani. also saw Mariachi El Bronx--it's almost mariachi music--and I spend most of my time listening to them now. The bad Mexican accents really get to you.
An actual thing that happened and is semi significant in my life! I got my permit! A couple of weeks ago, yep. I've driven four times now. I'm not doing especially well and I'm super hesitant? The first time I started racing across a parking lot at 40mph by mistake, because my subconscious decides acceletator solves all anxiety. I'm also driving a standard. The fun behind this is two-fold because a.) changing into 2nd and 3rd gears makes you feel really accomplished and b.) I can blame my lack of progress on the clutch. It'd help if i actually had half the will to drive as I did before I got my permit. it turns out driving isn't particularly fun.
I saw Laura Marling, who was excellent. Listen to Laura Marling. i guess you already have.
I went on something of a road trip, to DC. Also New York City and Philadelphia. I love driving through America, I really do. You can't do that so much in England. It's fun getting to go to new states even if only for very brief amounts of time? (I'm not going to talk about diversity in America. Just so we're clear). I think I went to a whole five new states this time. it was 100 degrees the whole weekend but we did Ellis Island and a lot of the sightseeing stuff in DC, Smithsonian stuff, Arlington, and saw some of my dad's old friends and it was just so much fun and I wish I could see more of this country. Hopefully in the future I won't be glued to the east coast, too. Yeah.
This is the entirety of everything that has happeed to me, Internet. I've been listening to a lot of Andrew Jackson Jihad, and 50s girl groups, and Stone Roses, Azealia Banks, Smith Westerns, Dum Dum Girls, X Ray Spex. Watching Sherlock, the Michael Apted documentaries(which are fantastic I don't care what you say), Miyazaki films. Currently reading Vonnegut, which I never seem to stop doing, and Desolation Angels by Jack Kerouac which I like.
I'm going to England in a week and a half. I can't wait. I've missed England a lot recently, aaaand now I wanna go back more than anything. Incidentally, I've lived in this country for five years now. It's weird to think about. But mostly I just wanna go back to England because people don't turn their heads if they hear your accent on the street, and I'm sick of the 100 degree heat here, and I wanna watch QI and walk to cornershops and around real countrywise, and listen to bad British music, and see live music and friends and everything!! Just...sorry America but no i need a break.
I'm so sorry that I never have anything to say follow me on tumblr i mean i don't have anything to say there either but if you're lucky there will still be words. I'm sorry maybe I'll blog over England or something but here's no point in words if there isn't any meaning I suppose. I hope you're having a great summer and I hope time slows down because christ i don't wanna go back to school or fucking anything.
Good night all.

i had that familiar conviction that life was beginning over again with the summer
Apparently that's from the great gatsby. i don't know. it would fit. I like it because it's so insigificant, and really insignificant little bits from books are the best, no? Yes. I found it on tumblr, okay?
It's also not even June yet, so not summer either. it falls under the very skewed sort of artistic licence that exists just in the realm of teen blogging, I suppose.
It is Friday night and the beginning of a long weekend and i have no one to talk to and i'm very bored and don't know what else i could be doing right now, so I'm just gonna eat food and watch the quality of music depress as the night goes on. (we're at the pixies at the moment) (they're really good) (joining the consensus pretty late on that one, huh) (it's really awkward just getting into things that are really popular already, yeah).
And nothing has changed since I last really wrote here, of course. Lemme think.
There's about a month left of school, which is pretty mindblowing if you consider how awful this year has been, and how long it should feel, but how short it actually feels. September feels like yesterday. 'Worthwhile' would maybe be an apt word to describe this year...you know, SO FAR, as if the last few weeks actually mean anything. Worthwhile as in learnin' and change and all that nonsense. I don't know what this means or adds up to. I grit my teeth and admit this. I don't know what I'm talking about. the whole thing's a mess. ANYWAY the seniors left today they covered the atrium with plastic cups and squirted people with water all day. So that's the one more School Thing ticked off for the year.
update it's sunday night now we don't have school tomorrow so might as well finish this mistake of a blog post.
my favorite things at the moment are jack kerouac's mexico city blues, los campesinos, and still brass eye. those seven episodes of brass eye have kept me going for a long, long time, apparently.
Watched every Sherlock episode, reluctently resigned to thinking it's the Best Thing Ever. sigh. it really is quite remarkable. However, I can now confirm that the Sherlock fandom is Way Out There. we all knew that before, but it's much better now that I've actually seen the damn thing.
it was Eurovision night last night, and I was reunited with that once-a-year sense of pure self-loathing, as I sat inside in 80 degree weather at two in the afternoon watching two solid hours of europop with azerbaijani commentary. I just can't give up on the damn thing. It's very un-British of me. I miss watching it in England though. you miss all the excitement of it. I was just left with the online dregs, aka mild xenophobia and is-israel-in-europe-or-not arguments. Nevertheless--I persevere! I had no opinion on the UK's entry this year; I was just confused that Estonia and Latvia gave us some points. I wanted Russia to win like you wouldn't believe though--and they came in 2nd! You confuse me, Europe, you really do. I suppose the UK fails in just not being weird enough. (thanks for that, centuries of emotional repression). I love this nonsense far too much.
Mostly I was just amused that the British vote-presenter mentioned us as the "hosts of the Olympics 2012" which basically translates as "Screw You Guys, We have the Olympics".
So I'm really excited for the Olympics, which is weird cause I'm just gonna watch gymnastics or something terrible early morning in england whenever Jeremy Kyle isn't on. I just really hope it isn't completely terrible because you know it's england and i don't wanna be totally embarassed by it all? i should stop talking about england. but i can't. it's an i-miss-england day. that feeling is sort of all-or-nothing at the moment. in a month or so it'll mark five years of my living in this country. i'll write something semi cohesive about it then cause it's actually almost important enough to merit a full blog post!! mostly at the moment i just want to be in england and i want it to drizzle and i wanna eat bad british food and watch bad british tv and listen to bad british music and just absorb the englandness again.
and yeah I just want summer because I can't remember the last time I wasn't tired and I'm sick of the routine of it all sick of working sick of falling asleep when i want to stay awake sick of waking up sick of people and their facades and theatrics and egos and word vomit and oh yeah casual prejudices of every color every day and hating them is considered 'judgemental' hmmm
i'm confused by the way people throw away the word 'judging'. 'Don't judge me' 'you're judging me' 'you're gonna judge me but...' etc etc etc. i don't see what's wrong with thinking a thing if you don't express it. What's bad about making a judgement? as long as you don't act on it, and as you see it as fairly innacurate. i'm convinced this word means nothing anymore. asinine observations.
i've spent all of this month doing drivers ed. it's been tedious and has left me only with apathy when it comes to driving. too much goddamn effort? the whole thing's just weird. i don't know. i had thoughts about this but they're long gone, i guess.
this weekend i've been bored as hell i watched spirited away again bought the kerouac poem book thing it's really good I just love Kerouac? and today i didn't do anything it's been fun. speaking of books I read a bunch of other Vonnegut stuff, Cat's Cradle didn't really click with me too much for some reason but Breakfast of Champions was fucking fantastic. Everyone go read Breakfast of Champions. i've reached the point where i need to buy everything the man ever wrote because my brain isn't the same anymore, and it's fun. yeah. we don't have school tomorrow and i have to film a spanish project and sleep.
A few weeks ago I saw Florence + the Machine with my friend. We drove 2 hours to get there and listened to Glee covers and the concert was the most excellent thing imaginable? I'm seeing Radiohead on Tuesday, Laura Marling and Gogol Bordelo in June. The music of the moment is Smith Westerns(their first album is the perfect Summer Record), and the Pixies, and Washed Out, Los Campesinos(1st album), Cymbals Eat Guitars, the National, and a lot of that 90s guitar music that the cool kids like.
Right i'm gonna go and think about school ending and being in england, and i'll have moody british bands as my soundtrack, so goodnight.
It's also not even June yet, so not summer either. it falls under the very skewed sort of artistic licence that exists just in the realm of teen blogging, I suppose.

questionnaires so 7th grade
I love travelling internet meme questionnaire things, in all their self-indulgent glory. And since I was tagged in Kayla's meme, it gives me the perfect excuse to a.) talk about ME b.) not do my algebra homework and c.) introduce you all to kayla's totally awesome blog if you're not familiar with it already. It also confirms the fact that i'm still alive and reading kayla's blog since we haven't talked in like forever.
These are the rules:
Okay at the risk of being really over the top I haven't really achieved anything notable yet. In England you have these secondary schools where the only entrance requirements is to do well enough on these exams, which I did. There's nothing inherently admirable about it but it's considered to be in England. I'm putting it here because it took like 18 months worth of effort I guess? More effort than a lot of things I've done? Also I got a poem published in a local middle school magazine thing in 7th grade. This surprised me, which I guess I should have some pride in? And I guess I'm proud of getting through various rough patches just because.
2. TV or movies and why?
TV. I guess you could say that TV allows for character development in a way that movies doesn't, which makes sense. But mostly it's for the really shallow reason that I like comedy more than drama or stuff like that, and humanity has so far failed miserably at making even one good comedy movie, as far as I can tell. In my opinion. I also have a shortish attention span.
3. What is your favorite city in the world and why? Difficult to choose. I really like the idea of Edinburgh because the skyline is really nice and they have castles and stuff and it just reminds me of winter mornings. Never been, though. London has a nice familiarity about it, and I've been to Paris once and they just have the nicest alleyways and stuff. Also, Lowell, which may be weird cause I live like right next door to it. But there are all these decaying mill factories and it has a nice bridge and a graveyard and art studios and the whole Jack Kerouac thing is just irresistible. It is exactly how Jack Kerouac always described. You can get lost in it.
4. Where do you imagine yourself in ten years?
I'd be 26 so hopefully I'd be done with college unless i happen to be going any further with my education career. I hope i'd be happy and living somewhere that i haven't lived before and doing a cool job. I really don't have any big plans.
5. What is one of your more ridiculous or silly fears?
I'm pretty good on this front. I guess I fear things about myself or my future. I fear failure too much. Also, I guess it's not unreasonable to be afraid of being the only survivor in a plane crash in the middle of an ocean...but the amount of time i spend thinking about that scenario is a little excessive.
6. What is your go-to method of procrastinating?
The most unoriginal one out there, I'm afraid: tumblr.
7. What is your favorite word?I have a really small and terrible and not very interesting list of favorite words. I really like serendipity, surreptitiously, opiate, Dramamine, and metastatic. Those aren't very good.
8. Name a famous person who has changed your perspective.Wow this one's tough for me. People like...Kurt Vonnegut, Wayne Coyne, Poly Styrene, Alice Walker, Christopher Hitchens come to mind. At this point I should probably be more dramatically affected by famous people, but oh well.
9. Would you rather be overrated or underrated? Underrated. Being overrated would definitely have its perks, but I imagine i'd be plagued by the idea that no one really gets what i'm doing or what i am and i'd be scared to continue in case i did something to hugely disappoint everyone. Being underrated would make me feel more secure, i guess.
10. What do you think is your driving motivation in life? Why?
That is a very good question, one I'm not sure the answer to myself. I guess just the idea of working towards being happy or to reaching a better understanding on things and to getting a better idea of who I am and where I stand with things. I guess it's all a pretty juvenile desire to know things and feel comfortable. A better sense of identity and ideas that make me feel more valid as a person? It all just goes in circles! I think to call it some sort of a search for a better understanding would be best.
it's pretty late now let's see what terrible questions i can come up with
1.) If you could spend a day as any character in a book/movie/tv show, who would you choose and why?
2.) If you could remove any decade of time from history, which would you choose?
3.) What colors do you associate with the days of the week?
4.) What's your favorite area of science?
5.) Do you believe in absolutes?
6.) If you had to remove either all carbohydrates or all sugary foods from your diet, which would you choose?
7.) think of a dream you've had and write the first one that comes to your mind.
8.) How do you feel about yoga pants seriously just let loose your opinions on yoga pants
9.) What's your comfort food?
10.) If you could look like anyone, who would you choose?
11.) Major or minor keys? And if you have any specific key preference beyond that then say that too.
if for some reason you want to answer these awful things then a.) you have too much free time and b.) go ahead I'm not tagging anyone in particular just go right ahead.
I find I have more free time at the moment so I should get back to writing here more. it's been fun when I've actually had something to say. I'm going to a concert with my friend next week and starting drivers ed and stuff so i don't know there'll probably be some anecdotes hiding in there somewhere.
Good night everyone.
These are the rules:
- Post the rules that are a part of this game
- Answer the questions the tagger set for you in their post, and then create eleven new questions to ask the people you’ve tagged
- Tag eleven people and link to them on your post
- Let them know you’ve tagged them!

i was told to blog
this evening i went to a concert at school. afterwards my friend said i should blog about it(undoubtedly without a shred of confidence that I actually, y'know, would) but I literally don't know what else to be doing right now. hello.
I should warn you to expect incoherency, but if you've read anything at all here, and you're for whatever reason still here, then i assume you understand and accept it. you're a stronger person than i. well done.
I don't know what I actually thought about the ordeal. This much is certain:
1.) Bar stools should NOT be used in the context of music videos or performances ever. EVER. I don't really see why you'd willingly lower yourself to the standard of an early-2000s British boyband, but there you go. I don't really understand why the people on stage willingly lower themselves to the standards I saw tonight so I guess we're just very different people. These props were used I think three times tonight I think? One more time and i would've been personally responsible for removing them mid-song, I guarantee you. stop standing up and sitting down whenever the key changes.
2.) I don't recommend sitting front row for anything. Ametuers or professionals, it makes no difference. It'll just disappoint you. Everyone is more attractive and interesting and has more stage presence when you can only just make out what they look like, from fifty feet away, and you're squinting to see more. Five feet away and every flaw is on show!
3.) The dancing in these things has always bothered me. At the risk of going all Tumblr Justice Blogger on all of you, it all seems strangely objectifying...except male or female, I can never really properly identify who is being objectified... or how? I mean if people wanna dance a certain way it's up to them and i may find something objectifying (and yes, some of it is, unequivicocally so) but I honestly don't care if they don't find or objectifying or wanna be seen a cetain way. I'm mostly just interested in my own inability to locate what bothers me! I guess there's the costumes or something? Whatever! NOT PUSHING MY STANDARDS ON ANYONE GUYS PLEASE UNDERSTAND ME. It's just...interesting I guess. sorry it's too late to start forming opinions i won't regret.
4.) The theme was one hit wonders. I think this is my favorite one hit wonder if only because it accurately demonstrates why northern English accents don't work in pop music. While we're on the subject, I think we should all make an effort to propel this to full One Hit Wonder status. To be fair, this does have more than eight million views more since I last watched it. We're getting there.
5.) Amy Winehouse was not a one hit wonder I mean c'mon.
6.) There was an abundance of clunky piano chords. STEP AWAY FROM THE INSTRUMENT. please. it wasn't made for that. it's abuse. please step away slowly now just please stop.
7.) There are few things more deeply confusing to me than the obsession so many people have at the moment with the 80s. I...don't get it. What the hell was good about the 80s? I wanted to get super deep into this problem so i did a super elaborate investigation about it. (In other words, I went to find my mom and ask her. Her response: nothing was good). I'm inclined to agree. I mean...Reagan? Thatcher? Neon clothes? U2? Bad pop music? I always think big business too. I don't know. It's just all so icky, especially when sandwiched between the decades of total awesomeness that were the 70s and the 90s. I mean...you'd take big hair and lime green tanktops and duran duran over a.) being a total punk or flower child and listening to X Ray Spex and stuff (please ignore the disco) or b.) being all apathetic and shit and watching MTV and listening to smashing pumpkins? WHAT WORLD ARE YOU LIVING ON.
8.) Speaking of Thatcher, that is the middle name of our new principle. His name is so upper class English it's pretty terrifying.
9.) If you're the director of the music stuff at a school and to outsiders you already give off an air of weird authoritarianism(but in a really effeminate way?) smugness i personally just think giving us an unscheduled performance of your own as a treat makes you look silly. people could disagree with me so hard on this. my two cents.
10.) Don't perform Kung Fu Fighting. Just don't. It just won't go well. It won't. Please trust me.
11.) Oh god i'm such a judgemental dick but as it's my blog and it's late i'm not gonna limit myself too much when I say please do not willingly become a drama kid or associate yourself with drama kids enough that there's even the slightest risk you will become sorta like them. I'm sure...I mean, statistically some of them have gotta be pretty cool people right? It's just...it's gotta be possible. I don't mean people who just do the music stuff, I mean the people who just embody the whole song and dance of it all. Some of them have got to be okay. AND YET. i'm sorry i'm sure you're all lovely and i know stuff like this is your Thing not mine and seriously well done for performing and all that but please sometimes you act hyper and you ignore other people around you and sometimes you act kinda awful and sometimes you have facades that are like crystal clear and i'm sorry i'm so so sorry you just sort of exhaust me. i'm sorry.
12.) The ultimate lesson of the night: you should not perform 1985. I'm sorry. It's just...there was tinny music with no bass. There were oversized lopsided yellow tank tops. There were orange tights. there were legwarmers. there was bad miming. there was no irony. there was...a total lack of cohesion or competency in dancing or singing. there were malfunctioning microphones. there was fake enthusiasm. I'm sorry. Well done for performing. I'm not saying it's...awful? I'm just saying i've seen Holocaust documentaries that were less personally depressing to me. I'm sorry.
I'm not saying I had a bad time! It was fun for what it was worth. It really was! I'm being overly critical and stuff. PERFORMING TAKES SO MUCH BRAVERY etc etc etc.
Another day when i'm more conscious and stuff i'll talk about how it was just my birthday and i'm 16 and stuff but that time is not now. See, I blogged! Goodnight everyone.

i have nothing worth saying just so you all know
it's april vacation everyone. It's chiefly charactierzed by playing animal crossing, listening to Cymbals Eat Guitars, and eating too much. It's been good. I can't seem to sleep enough, which is tough, because damn am I tired. So yes. I don't have anything I want to do this weekend so staying on tumblr all day is pretty much okay with me. I've sort of lost the energy to do anything lately. I went out today, actually. that's it. I really don't wanna do anything.
since I last blogged I have
--1.) developed an insatiable desire to read all things vonnegut all the time forgive me. I am 15 years old and peuso-literary it was inevitable. (not that vonnegut isn't awesome) (he is). it's fun. i'm reading the Sirens of Titan at the moment. I like it a lot. I'm a sucker for authors that reference books in their other books. See, proof I don't read. All you readers are cringing but whatever I could end this bulletpoint thing with a So It Goes for good measure, couldn't I? I don't think I'm gonna. There.
2.) also read Pale Fire like wow Nabokov you kick ass at life I wish I was you.
3.) Read a book called Brief Interviews With Hideous Men by David Foster Wallace it's very very interesting you should all read that too.
(I should stop acting like I know what I talk about vis-a-vis books)
4.) Watched Brass Eye a lot. I say a lot. It got cancelled after 6 episodes in like 1997 or something. Nevertheless it is fantastic. I mean it's really something just for 90s nostalgia and anytone with a perverse interest in britcoms (hello), as far as I can tell. WATCH IT, THOUGH.
5.) got really excited cause I found out Armando Iannucci, the super awesome scottish comedy writer (or, as most journalists think he is best referred to as, 'satirist') who wrote The Thick of It, my favorite show in the world, wrote an American spinoff. it's called Veep and it's on HBO Sunday the 22nd a 10 oclock I think? Let me shamelessly advertise this, please. Then I found out my family doesn't get HBO. I don't watch TV enough to know this stuff. Now I can 'get the DVD for christmas'. So now I'm sad. Watch it for me and tell me it's awesome please?
6.) I saw Kasabian a few weeks ago. It was a very good show indeed. As for concerts, I am seeing Florence in a few weeks, Gogol Bordello in may, Radiohead and Laura Marling in June. I'm also seeing Matilda the Musical when I go to England this morning. It's winning awards all over the place, apparently. It's all very exciting I suppose.
7.) I should stop numbering these.
the weather got nice and stuff.
I watched miyazaki for the first time and now it's like the only stuff i want to watch.
i haven't seen the hunger games yet. i should see it.
School continues to amaze me in its awfulness. See, everyone says high school is awful and I breeze through freshman year wondering how that could possibly be the case, and then things really do turn bad and it feels like there's some self-fulfulling prophecy stuff going on and it bothers me. Really, though, it is actually terrible. I've dropped a whole letter grade in gym because everyday I'm faced at 7 in the morning with the choice between walking on a treadmill or reading Kurt Vonnegut and who can blame me for going the same way again and again and again? Chem is fine although the girl in front of me likes the show off her masterful skill in the area of fucking up my calculator's settings every single day, which frequently remains a problem for some time. I'm doing well in algebra it's fine. My spanish grade is hideous. We had 'foreign language week' this week; we got to sit in on a Chinese class. it was fun.
Oh yeah and now we have to select our courses for next year which is so much fun, of course. I'm doing Gym For People Who Really Really Really Hate Gym, an as-of-yet undecided science course (I wanted to take an AP if only because the non-APs don't interest me in the slightest, but I wasn't recommended for AP because my teacher is the sort of directly relates outgoingness with capability (see my last post)), boring old spanish, creative writing, a literature based english course too (currently deciding between whether I want to take a relatively easy course that allows me to read Steinbeck or a harder one where I have to read, like, ALL OF FRANKENSTEIN but that better prepares me for AP english), pre calc, psychology, and health and stuff. I have no idea why I'm telling you this. There you go.
This week I intend to sleep and everything. Everything's been okay, I guess. That's basically all this post is saying. I'm in a good place with new music right now so I suppose I'd better show you some of that. Have some songs that don't work together at all--
1.) Hey--Pixies
2.) Green Eyes--Wavves
3.) Cigarette Smoker Fiona--Arctic Monkeys
4.) By Your Side--CocoRosie
5.) Barbie Shit--Azealia Banks
6.) Lorelei--Cocteau Twins
7.) Voodoo Child--Jimi Hendrix
8.) Dramamine--Modest Mouse
9.) Sex Rules--Sky Ferreira
10.) And The Hazy Sea--Cymbals Eat Guitars
11.) Brave As A Noun--Andrew Jackson Jihad
12.) We Don't Care--Kanye West
13.) Brothers In Arms--Dire Straits
14.) Shine On Sweet Jesus--The Flaming Lips
15.) Kurt Vonnegut--Born Ruffians (don't roll your eyes at me!)
16.) Carry the Zero--Built To Spill
17.) Cut Your Hair--Pavement
