that awkward moment when you’re having dinner with your very left, intellectual family, sitting with your older cousin and two younger adopted cousins and accidentally start thinking about switching the word “juice” for “jews.”
and then they ask what’s so funny.
BUT I LOVE JUICE.

back from time with the family at Westwind.
It was quite wonderful, even though it rained practically the whole way through. There was even a monstrous hail storm complete with lightening early in the morning on wednesday.
and tomorrow is New Year’s at scott’s, I believe. For which I’m wearing the strapless black party dress with the poofy white skirt part with black...

…that time when dalek sec basically has penis-tentacles coming out of his head.

This morning, I woke up and promptly forgot a completely wonderful dream. About an hour later, sitting on the couch with some hot chocolate, it struck me.
Sometimes you have those nice dreams that leave you feeling great when you wake up, but this one’s effect was c,loser to those half-panic-attack-things that I don’t know what else to call.
I had dreamed that I was something...

Hello.
I’ve had no internet for a few days.
and a lot of trouble. but that will not be explained because I don’t like talking about things ever.
Just feel genuinely shitty. and all the time I spent at my dad’s house, i woke up feeling incredibly depressed and like i hated everyone. and it’s really no better here. i don’t want to talk to her at all.
shit.
I...

I’m feeling rather stressed about my writing portfolio being due tomorrow, but somehow it’s the fact that the deadline is so definite that’s keeping me calm. By this time tomorrow I will be finished. And this class is pass/fail, and seriously, I’m not going to fail my easy writing class. I have all my pieces picked—oh shit, cover letter.
ok. cover letter needs...

Now can we please get on funding stem cell research and endorsing slightly more ethical ways of attaining them?

I have a hobby of re-scoring movies and tv shows. well, not actually scoring, but muting what’s playing and making my own soundtrack. I think it really makes shows better a lot of the time.
It would be so nice to have a video editing program so I could make little videos to show you what I mean.
alright.
all I have left to do this term is sing for someone’s composition jury, my...

hey there!! is there somewhere other than tumblr...
sorry, there’s not as of now. I’m intending to do something online within a few months, once I get around to making some decent recordings. I appreciate the interest, though.
and it’d be nice to see who you are, instead of this just being anonymous.
Inquire within for engaging conversation and titillating answers

ok, well, as I said before, the sound quality on...
I have all these piano songs (i would call them compositions, but that has more of a classical connotation) that I haven’t done anything with; they’ve just been rough drafts recorded on my computer. I’ve sort of avoided them because they’re pretty common rhythms and chord progressions that have been heard before, and because the sound quality is a little crap. and there...

“It’s letting people in.”
ok. so, roundup time.
yesterday was wonderful. morning classical vocalists concert went pretty well. I had to open, which sucked, but at least it was over with sooner; I always feel really sick before solo voice performances (Classical, not jazz, not solos in choir). The chorus concert was fine. Eric still played piano for us, which i thought was...
Can people just brush their teeth in the morning please?
the number of times i have encountered certain people (almost every day, really) and just don’t want to talk to them because having their mouth open anywhere near me is just terrifying…
come one everybody, lets not forget our oral hygiene.
on a more important note, tomorrow is filled with concerts. 10am tomorrow (I would...

I get these shivers all the time.
It’s a little strange when it happens in public; it looks like the beginning of a seizure. But it’s hardly ever because of temperature - usually it’s because of some idea or music or something sounding beautiful or something just being perfect in its existence.
Sometimes, I like to believe it’s you. Sometimes when i feel like...

I am so completely exasperated. by this time yesterday, I was flat out livid.
I put many hours into making a fan video of the seen from the Doomsday episode when rose almost gets pulled into the void but ends up in the parallel universe set to music from The Fountain (the whole soundtrack of that movie is spectacularly depressing).
anyways, i don’t have any decent editing software, so i...

I think capitol hill needs more dessert places.
there would be an awesome niche market if anyone were to start a chocolate mousse cafe.
really. there’s no bakeries or ice cream shops or anything like that.
I eat too much sugar.
