Sooo in the time since my last substantial blog post things have changed a little bit.
I reconnected with some of my closest friends who made it clear that I haven’t been nearly as bad a friend as I thought I had been, so that was really nice. The night after “Prepare yourself for something personal” was actually incredibly therapeutic for me. I talked for hours with friends and...

Prepare yourself for something personal.
So today at 1:24am I had my world rocked. My friendship and connection with the only person I’ve ever loved was lost. If anyone really knows me, they know I always dismissed the idea of high school love, or sweet hearts, anything of that sort. Over the course of the last few months (say since, December 27th) I have learned that it does exist, and it is the most crushing loss I’ve ever...

A fortnight ago
Actually a little more than a fortnight, but whatever. Anyway, on June 5, 1989 this picture was taken. So I guess this is in honor of my favorite picture’s 21st anniversary. I guess the event is kind of important too, you know, Tiananmen Square and all.

I know its belated, but I was waiting all year for this and totally forgot.
Finally something worth reading
My recent posts have lacked any substance whatsoever, and I’m pretty sure I’ve lost half my followers because of it. Here is something with a little more meat.
Recently I’ve been feeling like my life is the worst life for a couple of substantial reasons. I won’t go into that. A very dear friend was consoling me the other day and pointed out that this worst life scenario is...
this week has potential to be worst of the year. anybody with me?
While searching for a nice Band of Horses background today I found several posters that are just really nice. Check them out.
Death Cab For Cutie (Katrina benefit concert):
Rogue Wave:
Band of Horses:
I would add more but it would make this post obnoxiously long. Also, I think its safe to say that indie bands have the best posters.
I am confident that if I went to high school with these guys they would have been my best friends.
Hope you enjoy it this time You gave it all away
Well now that all of my plans have fallen through I’ve compiled a list of potential paths. Of course some of these popped into my mind spontaneously, but they have merit.
-Stay at Western. Reapply to ID school. Become Johnathan Ive.
-Take a gap year. Move to Beirut. Learn Arabic and connect with family I’ve never known.
-Study in London.
-Attend UO. Study finance.
-Attend UO....

Communism
CAN ANYONE TELL ME HOW COMMUNIST LEADERS COME TO BE? What is the process? I looked all over the internet and only found this:
“Just like the GOP or the Republican party, its all about deception, deceit, lies”
“Usually through revolt”
“They talk about change, have the backing of liberals with big bank accounts, promise better futures without elaborating,...

Sorry, again.
I fell way short of my 10 post quota, but I’m making it up by posting at 2:56 am. If anyone reads this in the next hour I’ll be very impressed. If anyone reads this blog at all, ever, I’ll only be a little less impressed, but still pretty impressed.

1: can you have sex on the moon?
like you cant have sex underwater because of resistance
would the gravity difference change things?
2: it would probably be lame

I realize its been ages since my last post, and I’m sorry. In an attempt to make it up I am going to post ten things by the end of the day (probably mostly sasquatch related).
Enjoy
