zim

............. hulu doesn't have it. i may have to kill myself now.

DOOM!............ among other things.

i'm so depressed! in my attempt to overdose on invader zim via YouTube, i sadly discovered that they only have the first episode and most of the second one up! i'll have to check Hulu and sing the doom song in the meantime. *sigh*

anyway. doom aside, i'm feelin' pretty good today. fell in love with syfy's alice - which i really need to finish watching - and fell head-over-heels in love with the hatter, also known as british actor andrew lee potts. *drooooooooools* ^_^ this kind of abject happy behavior is rare for me, but it's brought on by a mix of things - hatter, work, friends, the social networking site also known as bookface, good music... things of that nature. plus, i'm finally getting the chance to catch up on my reading.

i'm a bookworm - a hopeless one. i read whenever i have a free moment, and have done everything from run into walls to miss the chair i was trying to sit down on. (yes, i am that special.) i read everything but horror and don't particularly care for romance, either, so... yeah. i read a LOT.

currently, i'm re-reading Geektastic, which is this awesome collection of short stories about being a geek. anyone who is a self-proclaimed geek - and everyone else, for that matter - should check it out.

well, that's all she wrote, folks.

on life, on love, on everything else.

this is pretty simple.

life sucks, and then you die. love sucks and then you die. everything else... it's just filler. that's my profound moment for the day.

moving on. we all know by now that the answer to life, the universe, and everything is 42. we just need the question. personally, i favor "how many ways can you make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich?"

well, i think that's it for today. i'm fried. time for some invader zim.

"doom doom doom doomdoom doom doom doomy doom doomy"

so, musicness...

the essence of my life, it 'tis. i listen to almost everything, but most emphatically no country! if you were to borrow my iPod, you would find everything from muse to death cab for cutie to hollywood undead to kanye west. yah, that's me. my taste in almost everything being eclectic, it shows the most in my music, i believe. my list of top 25 most listened to is a mish-mash of owl city, switchfoot, linkin park, hollywood undead, john mayer, and muse - oh, and the strokes. must not leave out my love of nineties rock, inspired in me by my musical soul mate. (you know who you are, dearest.) as i cannot get to sleep without music, most of the songs are quiet, peaceful sleepy songs or heavy metal/driving rock songs - my sleepy time music types of choice.
currently, my obsessions are muse, john mayer (his new album is actually pretty decent), the temper trap, august burns red, and any nineties rock (i.e.: the strokes, spoon, metric, red hot chili peppers, the wallflowers, etc.) muse is the epic perfection of all things musical, and i love them wholeheartedly. john mayer - despite my guess that he's a complete ass in person - is amazing; if i could play guitar like anyone, it would probably be him. he's inordinately talented, and he has definite songwriting skills. the temper trap is just amazing as a whole. i first heard "sweet disposition" on a friend's recommendation (said musical soul mate's rec.) and fell in love with them completely. my current favorite song by them is "fader." august burns red is a little too heavy for some people, but i love my scream-o. they're amazing angry music, but at the same time their lyrics have real depth. and then, of course, there's my nineties rock. i love me some spoon/the strokes/the wallflowers/switchfoot/metric/phoenix/weezer/blind melon, etc.
and, recently, one of my very good friends turned me on to disturbed. i'd never really thought to give them a chance - weird for me, given my love of that genre - but her recommendation was definitely accurate. disturbed's musical sound is the perfect mix between heavy and melodic rock, their lead vocalist has an amazing voice, their drummer is (predictably; heavy metal bands seem like they draw all the best drummers) phenomenal, and their lyrics are thoroughly thought-provoking.
well, that's it for my music musings for now.

i must be out of my MIND...

but that will come as no surprise to any of my friends. there's a piece of facebook flair that says "but this is the sad part - we weren't even together and he still broke my heart." story of my freaking life. *she sighs dramatically, resting her cheek on her hand and looking off into the distance* then there's the one that says "the more her heart breaks, the louder her music gets." yep, that's me. you know, looking back on this, i'm inSANEly depressed. it's sad when your own life depresses you. *sighs* well, i supose i should introduce myself a little, tell you about myself, etc. etc. etc. let's see.... where to begin....

well, in the words of an excellent writer, "...begin at the beginning and, when you get to the end, stop..." so, the beginning. i'm a super-sarcastic recent high school graduate, i'm a geek, i'm decently intelligent, and music is my life and my obsession. let's see.... what else.... um.... i'm into film, anime/manga, and reading and/or writing amazing literature... i love the beach (my goal in life is to be a beach hippie forever and always)... oh, and the loves of my life are my guitar, seamus, and my iPod, leo. they're my boys, and neither of them will ever break my heart, so how much more perfect could they be?

well, i must bid you all adieu. until next time, or whatever.
