How am I different?

I was driving home the other day, just from driving around the city, thinking about stuff...that bizarre moment when you think about yourself in the third person. I was just reflecting on things I do, good, bad, somewhere in the middle behaviors, and since it was around New Years I was trying to focus on positive ideas and thoughts, forward thinking. And then...streaming over my phone on Pandora radio to my car stereo comes...Aimee Mann's Wise up from the Magnolia soundtrack. Thanks Aimee, your lyrics ruined my train of thought and slammed me back into the mud. Of course it just made me laugh...silly lyrics....but Aimee still insisted "...it's not going to stop...you're sure...there's a cure...so just give up" Okay Aimee, alright already.



After a moment lapse I concluded that Aimee's songs are a bit overly dramatic, but that I still love her and shouldn't take her songs personally. Bitch don't ruin my buzz.

Speaking of music, Adele's Rolling in the deep has been stuck on my brain recently. I just keep hearing it everywhere, which was starting to bug, but now I love it. How dare she. So here it is in case you haven't heard it yet. Maybe I'll try to bum the album off someone and check out the rest of the songs.



We recently went and saw Tron Legacy, which I surprisingly loved, and am now listening to clips from the Daft Punk soundtrack. They did fit in nicely with the movie, it's a shame that they were as short as they were, I mean at least on the album they could have extended some of the songs past 2min. Alas, I really liked the track The Grid...reminds me of an opening theme song to a soap opera, I can't figure out which one though...



I need to post a review of the movie soon, there was something really interesting going on in the whole "revisiting" theme that played throughout it.

On the web again...

So here we are with a new blog before me, it's been awhile since I've written a blog focusing solely on my personal life. I had for the longest time been writing over at LJ, I started that blog back in 2003 during my last year as an undergraduate at UCSD. It was an interesting outlet for myself at the time, keeping instep with my studies in Visual Arts, the blog was just a dumping ground for ideas, rants, and musings. I will definitely be continuing with such entries here, but who knows what this might turn into. Much of my life has changed since I posted my first entry on LJ, clearly I'm older, somewhat wiser, but also my perceptions are different. It's not that I feel completely different that the person I was 7 years ago, but I've definitely changed. I've also wanted to start blogging again out of the need to focus some of my ideas. Lately with being back in school and trying to keep up with my social life and interests, I feel so jumbled when it comes ...

It was the Sun

Things are at once looking good again...my back is feeling better, still has a slight twinge to it but overall almost back to abnormal. Yesterday was Easter, who cares? I don't. After the rain in the morning, the clouds parted and the warm Sun heated everything so nicely. I wanted to go out and run around, be active and sweat up a storm. Instead I sensibly went to the gym and rode the bike, then did lots of stretching for my back and booty on the floor. The day was relaxing, M and J prepared lots of food for eating, it was an anti-Jesus fest, foods in reference to his bloody death and bloody return(I guess?...or his hatching from an egg, who cares?). It was all tasty treats that molded my body into the shape of Buddha. We also had visits from V and M, just stopping by to say hi, we offered them food but they were on their merry way to other engagements. How dare they! Thankfully they did do their parts in polishing off some of the cupcakes that have been haunting our kitc...
