this guy

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250255442325

this guy's my new hero. He's auctioning off his life because some chick broke up with, leaving him with nothing but an empty shell where his heart and soul used to be. Happens to all of us at some point, buddy. Honestly, i wish i had it in my to just sell everything and move where ever the winds take me. honestly. I wish I could. Sadly, i think my net worth is somewhere around $1000... which is 100x to little to dig my way out of my debt hole. so even if i did have the guts to sell my life, still wouldn't be able to escape my life. sigh.... i really don't think that life should be about worry and angst... it should be about enjoyment and self discovery. I haven't been engaging in self discovery. I've been engaging in self-checking off what i'm not. Not motivated. check. not a book seller. check. not a film maker. check. not a practicing catholic, check. Its about time to figure anything out at all. anything. at all. please.

This is like the greatest thing ever

There's not much i can say. its just soooo-weet. Take every video you've ever watched, multiply its coolness by 1000x and you're still no where near the cooleness of this video

This is just to say

Apparently there is this famous poem entitled This is Just to Say, by William Carlos Williams. What an unfortunate name, that is. You'd think his parents would have been less cruel. Oh well. Anyway, here's the poem. It's pretty brilliant.
I have eaten

the plums

that were in

the icebox



and which

you were probably

saving

for breakfast



Forgive me

they were delicious

so sweet

and so cold
I heard about this poem on the greatest radio show ever in the history of the universe: This American Life. And apparently one reason this is so famous is because people have often imitated it. So, I have decided to try my hand at it occasionally, both here and on the Hate blog. Unfortunately, I have nothing creative right now.... I'll come back later with something... i'll try anyway

1. I have written nothing in this blog, tho I had every intent of putting something down
Even though I know you are wasting your time reading this drivel
Forgive me. law school has killed anything creative in my brain

ha.... that's just the start of the deluge.

balg


A few thoughts. 1. has there ever been, or will there ever be a woman as beautiful as Michelle Yeoh? (Zang Ziyi isn't half bad either). 2. How is it that ever fight scene choreographed by Woo-ping is amazing? You'd think he'd run out of ideas at some point. 3. Why are there shitty martial arts movies? They seem pretty easy to make to me. This scene has two women sword fighting. Its shot perfectly: meaning, you can actually tell what's going on. 4. Why am I not shooting movies? damn

my stupid brain

So... I'm going to start writing daily again... either here or on stuff stephen hates... I miss writing... i think its good for me. Anyhoo... so, I've written about Katie Andrews before. And today I was surfing 1998 grads from Gilmour on Facebook when who do i see, but Kate Andrews. katie is one of those people who I wish I hadn't lost contact with. She was cool and I wish I were still friends with her. So I considered friending her. but I didn't... because it seemed weird to me. Facebook still weirds me out. still don't quite get it; i don't know what the proper protocol is. I found a friend from oberlin the other day, but i didn't friend her because I wasn't sure if it would be fun or stalkerish. hrmmm.. Katie. Kate. someone who i've said I would like ot see again, and I can't bring myself to press click on a superficial "friend" bbs. hrm.
