NO DOUBT*

*originally from LJ

The concert was awesome! The opening group, "The Faint" were pretty good.

No Doubt did a few great oldies ie. Just a Girl, Spiderwebs.. and some new stuff, which I hadn't heard much of (except Hey Baby) but it was pretty cool. I must say, the best lyrics of the night were:

Long distance
Don't talk about ex-girlfriends
Don't talk about you with out me
Don't talk about your past
Lets talk about the future
Lets talk about the wedding
Lets talk about Gwen Stefani
Let's talk about how much you like me
And all that

Don't know why, but the way she said "Lets talk about the wedding" made it quite special. The entire audience cheered.

... back to writing a paper which has no topic.

weird thing.. *

*originally from LJ

Last night I had a pretty strange dream. All I know about the movie Panic Room is what I've seen on commercials, yet in my dream, I somehow created this movie. From start to (almost) finish (my alarm went off). It was very strange, and very real. Part of me thought I was actually watching the movie, yet somehow it also felt like I was involved in it.

In my version, there were 2 kids, a boy and a girl, and there was a man who's my/the main character's friend. At first everyone hides in a secret basement apartment, but when the burglars find it, they go into the panic room. Very freaky.

Makes me want to see the movie. I think I will.

Bahamas, belayed.*

I'm still alive, so no one gets my stuff! I'm just sitting here, exhausted, not wanting to start any actual work, so I figured "Hey! I know a good way to waste 20 mins!"

So Bahamas.... WOOHOO

Best vacation EVER. It would've been great to have a bigger group of people but the 3 of us had a great time. The hotel was right on the beach; the weather was perfect all week; the water was clear and warm; the food was great (besides the very first day... that buffet sucked).

Besides just laying out on the beach (which we didn't really get to do too much of, not that I really like just laying around doing nothing...) we went parasailing, did a Dolphin encounter, swam at Blue Lagoon Island, went downtown to the shopping/cruise docking area, walked over to Atlantis (yes, they've discovered the long lost continent and you can WALK to it from downtown Nassau.... or maybe it's just the cheesy Atlantis resort that advertises all the time), gambled at the casino (well, I watched others gamble), and just plain RELAXED.

For an entire week I completely forgot about school. THAT is the measure of a trully great vacation. Although the drinking age is 18, I wasn't all that inspired to go and drink as much as I possibly could. First off, all the drinks were really expensive, but besides that, they're all just too damn fruity. I don't like pineapple. But the occasional drink or glass of wine with dinner felt great.

Alex and I spent pretty much the entire week together, straight. Still not sick of each other. Absolutely astounding. Well, more like he's not sick of me yet. I tend to find myself quite annoying after a while, but he seems to handle it pretty well. If I had given anyone a negative impression of him or our relationship let me just take this moment to clarify that everything is wonderful. He is a great boyfriend, and we get along so well that we have to make up silly disagreements about the most trivial things just to make ourselves feel better. I'm not quite sure how that works btw.

Here are some pics of the vacation that should make you adequately jealous. At least that's what I'm aiming for. :)
poop.

rebuttal*

*originally from LJ

Regarding the recent complaints you had about your boyfriend on March 9th 2002:

I am sorry my roommates have not cleaned the bathroom in 1.5 years. I am sorry I have a bit of a "problem" when it comes to snoozing. And I am sorry I don't like oily things. But technically that last one isn't entirely true because I like you, and you are often very oily. But despite that, I like you a lot. Now please don't touch anything.
