Deceptively good albums

So after listening to this album which I thought had promise, it was not thrilling. I'm the type of person who listens to albums all the way through so after getting this one and listening to the first track I'm pretty hyped but then that subsided with every other track, disappointing. Who puts the one good track first. Hopefully this grows on me.

Hooking up.

What's considered skanky?

Ugg

Winter is coming.
Do you know what that means?
Uggs.

Ugghhhhh.


Yeah, Uggs probably keep your feet nice and toasty, but seriously. They're hideous. They make you look like you were bit by a rabbid squirrel and your feet swelled up. I can't say that I would ever want my feet looking like giant marshmallows.
Ugg sounds like something a caveman would say. How does that possibly help them sell their boots? Would you be compelled to buy something if you associated it with "primitive" humans? In our technological age, I don't think so.

So now that this is essentially my blog ... This summer I went to visit Kelly in chicago during lollapalloza as I'm sure you konw. We once went to this Jimmy Johns to eat and when we were there there was a girl with this bag that said "Jacobs by Marc Jacobs" .... Now i am thinking what is this Marc Jacobs started a new line? and how original when his old lines include Marc by Marc Jacobs ... but i continue to read the bag ... " For Marc by Marc Jacobs" ... What? ... "In collaboration with Marc Jacobs for Marc by Marc Jacobs" ... Ok so the bag is clearly a pun which started all these emotions in me. Damnit if i don't love Marc by Marc Jacobs. My favorite bag in high school was Rachel Hone's Marc bag but at the same time I love Wit and this bag has it. The fact that the line is named Marc is a good thing to ridicule. How ever will I ease my cognitive dissonance? After going online and doing some research this bag is actually made by Marc Jacobs. As me and Misha were discussing last night this is pure genius. Not only is it showing how clever and witty Marc Jacobs is but it is a crazy add. No matter how you look at it you will see Marc and Jacobs. The bag is also sold exclusively in the Marc Jacobs stores so you have to know what your doing to get one. Ahh, I can sleep soundly again.

For your viewing enjoyment (it's the first bag)

School.... friends.... life....

So, I've been having a minor philosophical crisis lately. I find that I am a very social person. I need social interactions all the time. Problem is at school I don't have that many people that I can interact with. I don't have the same massive contact list that I've developed in my home town. I meet a good amount of people but many of them were engineers that I didn't have much in common with. I still see some of them but I'm not terribly inclined to call them unless I'm desperate for social interaction. Quite frankly they're not high on my list of relationships to upkeep. I could meet new people possibly but I find it is easiest to meet people who are lame. This is a huge problem especially since there is such a huge percentage of lame people here. After being disappointed so many times last year I'm almost reluctant to meet new people in my classes and such. Although it is simpler to meet more people this way I find that it is too easy to develop a high level of involvement with someone you have no connection with. Have any of you had similar revelations?



oh teenage hopes are lying at your door
left you with nothing,
but they wanted more.

Update

Val is out having fun in the wilderness, I hope. Have fun Val.

This weather is killing the summer mood. And I cant wear my CK loafers in the rain!

...and as the summers ending
the cold air will brush your hard heart away
you were so condescending
and this is all that's left
empty bottles, spent cigarettes
so pack a change of clothes 'cause it's time to move on.
