so the other day me and franny went to the natural history museum and saw this

afterwards we couldnt get over how insignificant we are in the universe. Whoopi Goldberg is ridiculous.

today i watched Man on Wire and really teared up

just so triumphant.

also, Popeye starring Robin Williams and Shelley Duval is so nuts. I haven't seen it since I watched it with Sam last summer but I just rewandered upon this and it killed me

weirdest westchester summer stoner.

new york sexy sluts in the city lifestyle really makes me love late 90s high school movie/tv show culture.

laura winslow the later years is really good.

ugh, my life.

what a whirlwind

2009-06-21T15:32:00.000-07:00

i was thrown through a tornado and now school is over and i dont have to feel guilty about my stoned movie days. here are the best things ever that me and olivia have been up to.

Equilibrium: Christian Bale and Taye Diggs in a future dystopia where emotion is outlawed, then Christian Bale stops taking his injections and sees a beautiful sunset and saves puppies.

holy SHIT this movie is fucked up, lets talk about these guys:

so terrifying

always good. speaking of vampire movies:

does everyone know how excited i am for New Moon?? i'm such a nerd.

i would like to turn everyone's attention to this : Buffy Vs. Edward it's so good.

hey guys, here's a story.

so i was in starbucks just now after watching a movie for my film class in the library, and i see these weird tattooed dudes all in black walk in, and one of them is wearing an sf hat and looks so familiar to me but i can't figure out where from! so i'm muggin, and i walk past them out the door. then am like, wait a second, i'm just gonna go back. so i ask the dude "are you from sf?" and they all answer really excitedly "no dude, but we're from the west coast!" and i'm like "cool, me too" and then the main guy is like "yeah let's hug it out" and gives me a hug and im all wtf!? and then say bye and leave and as i leave the dude is like "fuck yeah AMERICA" and i run to catch the bus and i'm all "that was fucking weird, where do i know that guy from??" so i go home and google who is playing in oxford in the next couple days and its

FUCKING PAPA ROACH

LOL wtf. i guess he thought i was a fan and just looking for a stupid reason to say hi to him.

literally the funniest thing thats happened in so long.

BUCKET OF HORMONES

2009-06-11T09:48:00.000-07:00

dudez, my hormones are raging out of control its hilarious.

heres some things that prompted me to cry yesterday:

last one is obvious.

literally eating huge pieces of chocolate and drinking weird vanilla teas and being real cray.

also watched THE BEST intervention about identical twins who are anorexic together.

reading 'extremely loud and incredibly close' for my last postmodernism class and its bound to jerk even more tears.

ONE MORE WEEK OF OXFORD GUYZ.

literally dreaming about tacos

2009-06-09T08:17:00.001-07:00

i always liked this song probably from like a pop-up-video or strictly cruel intentions feeling, but i didnt realize how funny the video was

what a shithead! i thought at the end he was going to get beaten up but i guess thats just his band behind him. whatta british asshole.

GODDAMN i want mexican food.

2009-06-03T08:49:00.000-07:00

that movie Orlando (sally potter wrote and directed) is so insane! i wasn't even stoned when I watched it but WHOA recommended. also Billy Zane is a babe? who knew!?

hell is other people

2009-05-28T09:50:00.000-07:00

riding the weirdest brainwaves.

2009-05-27T09:43:00.001-07:00

2009-05-24T08:59:00.000-07:00

last night for dinner we had leftover really good mash potatoes, and we fried them in patties and put bacon in the middle.

stoned movies i watched thursday, friday, and saturday night

watched this by myself. its a straight to tv scifi channel type thing that was really great.

como-se-dice my favorite movie. im a man-hater in theory but a bromance lover in practice.

i'll always love you.

layers in my life.

2009-05-23T18:42:00.000-07:00

what if i got a tattoo that was courtney love AS leda (with the swan) AS a pinup girl

losing my mind.

everyone who is into feminism should read this book i just read today

favorite part: there's a prison that this Countess builds to house only female murderers who have killed their husbands thats a pan-opticon. They can only get out of prison if they've shown they repent their crime. Nobody ever feels regret, and eventually the inmates and the guards realize that they are both in prison, and send each other love notes in period blood. They break out of prison and form a colony of women without men after taking semen and freezing it.

MY LIFE IS PRETTY COOL, GUYS

running themes of awkwardness and hating life.

2009-05-20T16:27:00.000-07:00

ALL I WANNA DO

2009-05-19T07:32:00.000-07:00

IS SMOKE WEED AND WATCH DARIA

why does so much of this exist?? also a lot of porny fan fiction. i mean, i guess that kinda cool.

maybe ill get my mom to scan the picture of me as daria on halloween in 7th grade.

whats for dinner?

2009-05-18T12:19:00.000-07:00

biggest crush of all time (i.e. whats the diagnosis, dr.?)

that entire episode is what i would call THE JACKPOT

WHAT THE EFF.MY.LIFE

2009-05-16T15:34:00.000-07:00

things that are ruining my life right now:

this forecast blows, i know its england but jeeze! whatever happened to may.

zit on my chin thats such a bummer.

This is the book i have to read this week for my postmodernism class. it literally moves backwards in time, from death to birth. its kinda great with a lot of winks at the reader like 'wouldnt it be weird to shit backwards every morning?' and like first the girl slaps you in the face and calls you and asshole, then you sleep together all the time, then you start seeing her around, then she doesnt exist. the real reason i hate it is because my (day)dreaming is all fucked up.

you know when you find out something you wish you'd never known? i wish i'd never known that jason segel was in oxford, wandering around on thursday night trying to find a cool place to get a drink and meet some awesome americans, and didn't run into me, since i was at home writing a stupid paper. instead he ran into my stupid bro "friend" who didnt even have the decency to call me, now im never talking to him again. (p.s. my teacher ending up canceling our class the next day because she was "sick", then i saw her in town wearing a huge crazy floral wrap with sunglasses on smoking a cig waiting for the bus and we really ignored each other, omg like soooo awkwarddddd. then she sent me an email saying it was tennis elbow, i dont even know)

WHYWHYWHYWHYWHY ME????

i'm not even a weird celebrity hound but i just know that if we would have met, sparks would have flown. here are some other crushes that i'll actually never be close to meeting, that make me feel a little bit better.

chronologically, places i am comfortable:

places i am uncomfortable:

pretty self-explanatory.

this morning i woke up to an email containing this quote:

No one hates anyone as much as Anna Wald hates everyone.

blahblahblog.

2009-05-12T07:34:00.000-07:00

Thelma and Louise just really made me feel like this

also I don't know why but this really satisfied just now

i like the hollywood sign exploding at the end, pretty redundant.

things that you forgot happened in Thelma and Louise:

-when they make a truckdriver whos been harassing them pull over, and then they blow up his oil truck cause he won't apologize!

-when some dude with dreads smoking a blunt is bikeriding down the highway and hears the cop they locked in the trunk and blows smoke in his airholes, like WTF?

-probably no one forgot how much of babe a young brat pitt is

YOWZA.

this is an attempt at an unboring post about 'my studies'

2009-05-11T16:17:00.000-07:00

so for my women's cinema class i had to watch this movie "Yes" written and directed by Sally Potter in 2004. i watched it for the 2nd time after smoking a little weed which was ideal. first of all, its all in iambic pentameter and half of it is poetry. also, some music by phillip glass, a lot of internal monologue, sexy scenes, a 'chorus' thats moaning mertle as a cleaning lady, religion/death/life/identity/other greatness (POMO). its depressing/epic-uplifting at the same time. heres the trailer

also tomorrow I have to go watch Thelma and Louise in one of those library viewing rooms which is the best homework ever.

Another rad thing I watched for that class is the Spike Lee Joint (eh) 'She's Gotta Have It'. it's enjoyable and extremely offensive at the same time. (my paper title was literally 'She's Gotta Have It': the (Mis)Representation of Black Female Sexuality. my life rulez) the main good thing is how great Spike Lee looks

theres a lot of great fashion things happening all around.

in case you're in the market for the most depressing book ever you should check out Empire of the Sun by J.G. Ballard. I really was pushing trying to write an essay about how historical war fiction can push into the realm of science fiction. I realized I couldn't back up that point but it was fun to try for a lil. get that shit if you haven't cried from a book in a while.

other things im thinking about:

weed, pizza, wanting to see the new star trek movie, gossip girl tomorrow night, being on celebrity gossip sites so much that i feel like i am literally on the set of New Moon.

the one blog i often wish i had thought of first is sorry-mom.com. why didn't i have the foresight for this? its a blog for people to anonymously post about the worst dude they've ever slept with. this is like a roundtable discussion with my friends but from all over, with girls i'd never hang out with.

THATSALL I GOT FOR NOW

weirdest witch.

2009-05-11T05:51:00.000-07:00

here are some things that have been on my mind.

moon cycles, McClintock effect, witchy women, wicca.

I've never been this girl, but i kind of wish i was.

pretty accurate.

the future is now

2009-05-10T16:27:00.001-07:00

so sure i'm taking a postmodern literature class here at oxford, but shit is overlapping like whoa. INSTANT NOSTALGIA is something i've been thinking a lot about lately. i hang out here on the internet a lot, and feel like i can see the 'new cool' becoming the 'old lame' before my eyes in seconds. e.g. funny swine flu facebook statuses becoming totallywack before its even a 'pandemic'. the internet is whole different arena of postmodern mind-booglation because of everyone's sense of CONSTANT IRONY. Anna asked me where Amanda was when they are both at SLC and I said 'she's on ghat' because, i was talking to Anna on ichat, when before we'd been talking on facebook chat, but ghat was where amanda could be found in bronxville to ask her a question. And to be quite frank i literally LOLd. i skyped with my mom and grandma for mother's day today, and then afterwards me and my brother shared our screen grabs of the absurd event we both participated in. immediate recognition of something you do everyday as totally ridiculous and existing in the 'non-reality' is something very much of only our generation. generation aim.

this is something moving past this:

into something else. In my class we really talk about things like this:

and

but thats a whole different story. what im trying to say is naked rhianna pics leak and then her publicists statement less than an hour later? "have you seen that one youtube clip" embarrassment. pretending internet life is separate from real life.

my point is the retro/future is now.

dream on.

2009-05-10T06:26:00.000-07:00

Even though these days i usually sit around in sweatpants, i'd like to say for the record that in the grand scheme of things, here's pretty much what i'm going for :

Anyways, whatever

2009-05-10T05:31:00.000-07:00

This is a social experiment to see if other people think I'm as funny as I think I am.

In case you have no idea, this is what I'm interested in:

Don't call it 90's nostalgia, i love courtney love in a way that other people don't appreciate. And no, asshole dudes, that doesn't mean I can't love nirvana. fuck off.

So yeah, Kathleen Hanna and all, but particularly the aspect of feminist scholarship, books, libraries, being smart and having my shit together, etc.

My goal in life is to have my own Bitch magazine pretty much.

So, gathering that my interests haven't changed much since I was 14, this blog will probably be about dumb shit I find on the internet, rants about women and books and 'politics' (maybe) and things that I like. I hang out on the internet a lot because I write a lot of essays and procrastinate, I'm not your everyday lameloser, or maybe I am.

i'm bored with this already
