"Well, it took a lot of work to be the ass that I am. And I'm really damn sure that anyone can equally, easily fuck you over"

The past two days have been pretty good. A party last night; it was alright. Today I had the first TFH practice all summer, and it wasn't as productive as I'd want, but at least we went over all our songs. Hopefully writing soon. We sure as hell have enough lyrics! (thanks to yours truly) Tonight I had yet another trip to Dorney. It was alright. Needed a 4th member.

Innocence: Do you remember that? By now, no you probably can't. I barely can. For me, the word brings to mind Muhlenberg Elementary, Soul Caliber II on the Gamecube, Yu-Gi-Oh, Pokemon, and Dragon Ball Z. But that's not what it is... It's something we lost. It left with the sex, it left with the drugs. It left with the lies, the bullshit, and everything else that came into our lives around 10th grade or even earlier. Our imaginations decayed, leaving behind hollow shells that we now can only call "creativity". Yeah, creativity, sure. When did our attention spans shorten so much? When did sitting around just pretending turn into looking for the latest bullshit rumors. It's no more exciting now... There is so much more going on, but I feel no more fulfilled than when all it took was a Gameboy, a couch, and determination. The one thing that has stuck with me is music. I know I sound like my usual audiophile self, but... can it be argued with? In my case, no. My taste has changed, but the art has stayed with me. I don't love anything like i love some music. In conclusion- I do not know what I am talking about. I am having a good summer. I enjoy life. I love it. I love my friends. I love most of these nights. But guys, come on. LETS FUCK, LETS LIE, LETS CHEAT, LETS STEAL, LETS SMOKE, LETS FIGHT, LETS BREAK OURSELVES DOWN. At least we are LEARNING, huh? No. I hate it, it is fake, it is false, it is not real. Where are the real people? I know there is one hiding in every single one of you, so why don't you show it? I'm glad I am growing up . I am just a fuckin' kid in high school. I don't know too much about life, but I believe in what I know so far. *



Music for tonight: Modest Mouse- The Moon and Antarctica: You can't deny the classics. And I really think this is one of them. Not one of my favorite albums ever, no, although I do love it. But this album's sound can be heard in so much music within the past decade. Hugely influential. Really great.

  1. suggested song: Emenius Sleepus - Green Day.

    and the only difference for me, is that pokemon has moved to my computer instead of a gameboy. wholeheartedly agreed about all of it though, even though i find myself getting caught up in all the noise from time to time.
