"It's better not to know so much about what things mean or how they might be interpreted or you'll be too afraid to let things keep happening. Psychology destroys the mystery, this kind of magic quality. It can be reduced to certain neuroses or certain things, and since it is now named and defined, it's lost its mystery and the potential for a vast, infinite experience." -David Lynch

Friday, December 21, 2001 :::

abolish the mood set by my last post. things are absolutely fine; i was just in a funk for a little while. my apologies to anyone who was affected by it.

Lord of the Rings is a damn good movie...epic is the word. everyone go see it (!!!)

Harry Potter is a decent movie...i could even say that it was good. good, wholesome family fun...and unicorns being eaten by a monster in the woods.

10 Things I Hate About You was thoroughly enjoyed; I'd have no problem recommending it to anyone. And dammit...I have a thing for Julia Stiles...or at least her character in that movie. Heath Ledger did a nice job, as well...

Pootie Tang is the greatest movie ever! Wa-da-tah!

Donatos is the place to rock...great pizza, great service, pretty girls...and phones at the tables that you use to order your food. Very nice, indeed.

Three cheers for the Pants Dance!

I'm totally in the holiday spirit...it's soooo wonderful. Melo's all up in frigid weather, which i suppose is more appropriate, but i'm fine with the current temperature here. my floridabornandraisedass doesn't do too well with severely cold weather. of course...a light snow would be a godsend...and yes, it HAS snowed in florida before. it'd take a miracle for it to happen here...but one can dream.

so...my yet-to-see movie list now consists of Vanilla Sky, The Majestic, Not Another Teen Movie, and Ocean's Eleven. And Amelie.

Absent practice tomorrow? Let's hope so...

It's impossible for me to get a good night's sleep in this house. Either Kevin blasts country music out of dad's stereo system when he gets up...or Maverick runs away, and Kevin yells incessantly (with much futility) to get him to return...or something else happens. i LOVE my waterbed, though. it'd be sweet to bring it back with me to Gainesville.

artists that have cds that i now want: Apex Theory, Muse, Outkast.

"You can plan a pretty picnic, but you can't predict the weather."

Laur: hope you're on the up and up...lemme know what you think of the new Incubus.

Melo: thank you very much for the e-mail...hit me back...

Drew (not like you'll EVER read this): did you pick up rob's present yet? call me (like you said you would, and never did)

that's all for now...

"Get yourself together, man!"

today was...very ungood.

man. i'm actually depressed. i haven't been this down since...well, no offense to anyone, but i haven't been this down since Annie and I parted ways way back in the day. i'm cold...can't seem to keep my head up...can't think of any way to spend my time...there's no one to hang with...i haven't eaten but 2 slices of pizza from earlier today. typing this feels pretty pathetic...but i can't think of anything else to do. other than sleep.

while driving home today from brian's, i thought to myself that the only thing i really wanted to do right then was rest my head in the lap of someone who loved me...someone who'd take care of me. someone genuine. so few people are genuine these days...but i guess when i say "people," i mean girls.
not to say that guys are all genuine; i'm just concerned with finding a genuine girl, 'is all.

i remember feeling so much happier up in Gainesville - i guess it's the sense of freedom that's missing here. i mean..."all" of my friends are down here, so i should be happy, and be spending time with them...but no one has really called me; everyone seems busy with their own "stuff," or else they're out of town. oviedo is laaaaaame.

i guess i'm going to go sleep. if you read this and feel like commenting, i'd prefer a call.

so it seems that lauren and i will not be doing anything to day, as we'd originally planned. actually, the original plan was to do something Friday, but well...that night went swirling. all in all, it doesn't look like i'll be chilling with her while i'm down here. and i'm almost to the point where i'm just numb to it.

brian, meghan, laur, and i went out to the altamonte mall last night. due to the uncomfortable atmosphere that brian and i were met with throughout our stay, we decided that we probably should have just stayed home and watched Pootie Tang (which we rented for free, cuz brian dropped a quarter in this little contraption that had notches scattered throughout, intended to knock the quarter to the side so that it would fall in water instead of on the small platform in the middle at the bottom. well, it just so happened that that quarter was a MAGICAL quarter, and it landed safe and sound, totally dry!). However, we did discover a WONDERFUL candle/body wash in a store called "The Body Shop." The candle was called Exotic, and the body wash was called Exotic Passion Fruit. oh man...sooooo good. my hands still smell awesome!

anyone have $1000 to spare? i fell in love with an amp yesterday while shopping for equipment with Will. It's a Line 6 Flexitone II. BEAUTIFUL tone...great distortion...tons of effects...100 watts...*orgasm* it's like...my ideal amp - with a semi-decent price tag, anyway. if anyone is feeling extra generous this holiday season, i'd do anything for you, in exchange for this amp.

there's a new post on www.saladfishman.blogspot.com.

hope everyone is in the holiday spirit...6 days...

8 more days 'till Christmas. pretty freakin' crazy, eh? i'm finally finished with all my shopping, and am flat broke; in debt, actually.

Lord of the Rings is Wednesday...can't wait for that. it'd be rad to get a group of friends together to see it, so if you're interested, leave me a comment, or let me know some other way.

brian's party was splendid...i had an awesome time just chilling with members of the original crew-Melo, Juan, and Frank-and of course, Raudebaugh, Brock, and Brian are wonderful. just...talking with everyone was great. Brock, Brian, John, and I jammed out with some Absent tunes, so that was rad...and everyone said we sounded pretty damn good...but my voice started to "go" after like, three songs...so that pissed me off a bit. i'm pretty sure that it's just because i'm out of practice, though. i gotta' get my vocal chords back into shape.

three cheers for Jimmy Eat World. what a great rock 'n roll band. ROCK AND ROLL, BABY.

just looked up my grades for my first semester at college. drumroll...

SOCIOLOGY: B+
FUNDAMENTALS OF MATH: C+
EVOLUTION, ECOLOGY, and BEHAVIOR: B+
FILM ANALYSIS: B+

GPA: 3.296

So. My thoughts. The final GPA is aight...my goal was to make a 3.0 to keep the scholarship, and that's taken care of. I'm fine with the grades in each class when i consider the amount of effort i put into each one...EXCEPT FOR FILM. A B+ in Film? In a writing class!?! Something isn't Kosher, here. I got A's on all of my papers, unless my final paper receieved something less; i haven't gotten the grade back yet. The only plausible explanation is that i missed three "required" screenings (movies screened by my professor). But still. I did the work...and i rented the movies that i missed...so it's BS. I'll be havin' some words with him when i get back in g-ville.

i guess i'm done for now...see you all soon...

i'm taking a poll: Do you guys prefer dating, or being serious with someone...and why?

after giving it some thought...i've basically come to the conclusion that girls are dumb. how's that.

and lying is the worst thing a person can do.

and being two-faced is the worst thing a person can be.

sooooooooo. i forgot to mention...about a week ago, i saw "The Beach," with Leo Dicaprio. pretty rad flick...very captivating. i'd like to see it again. i'm told that it bears similarities to "Lord of the Flies," but i never read that one...*prays forgiveness*

dammit lauren.

did anyone read those lyrics on my other site, or download "There is no if...?"

brian's party is tonight...so hopefully, that will help me get things back into perspective, after today's unexpected...whatever.

i already miss my apartment...

thoughts on absent

the past: in the very beginning, i couldn't stand it. i was disappointed with every show we played. maybe we started playing out too soon...maybe i was too hard on everything, like usual. regardless, i was pissed after most every show. and before most shows, i'd argue with frank about what he should or shouldn't wear on stage...blah blah blah. silly.
after a good number of shows...after we started to get a good response from our audiences, i let go a little. i enjoyed performing on stage more, and totally dropped any worries about what frank might be wearing. i just...did my thing, and i think everyone else started to relax more on stage, as well. 'twas a rockin' time.
when brock came aboard the absent bandwagon, i was totally psyched, but frank was less than stoked. however, after we had a couple practices as a fivesome, everyone knew that things would be fine. brock caught on very quickly, and although our shows together were less than perfect, it was fun, nonetheless. we received second place at the 3rd Annual Altamonte Springs Battle of the Bands (bands with at least one Brotz in them have either won first or second place in each of the 3 years of the competition's existence: 1st place for Unwelcomed Guests (Will), 1st Place for WiKid (me) and 2nd place for Absent (brian and me). ANYWAY. fun times.
tensions between frank and i festered. frank wanted the band's style to get heavier, whilst the rest of us were fine with the direction we were headed in (more melodic, with a heavy 'edge'). to make a long story short (i'm sure that you all heard the long version before, anyway), frank parted ways with the band, and will joined. why will? all five of us have an awesome vibe together. will has been wanting to join the band since...i dunno when, and after practicing with him, i'm confident that everything will work out fine.

NOW: brian, brock, john, will, and i are all ready to throw down. the only problem is that i'm up here, and they're all down there, in o-town. this makes practice opportunities very limited. however, if the guys still practice without me, i know that they can get tight as hell (there's always room for improvement), and i'll be practicing up here on my own for sure. as for specific comments towards myself and bandmates: brock practices more than any of us. as long as he's practicing his vocals, as well, i don't have anything critical to say here. however, his involvement in other bands worries me...ah well. raudebaugh is a mad awesome bass player...but i think if he let go more...if he'd just beat the hell out of that bass, it'd be hellabetter. also, practice practice practice. as for brian...brian's optimism for the band is awesome. i know that he practices like a beast, too...he's gotten SO much better than he was when we started out. however, i think he still has quite a ways to go-all of us do, but i truly feel that the qualities of the drummer and vocalist(s) often determine the success of a band. will's ability to quickly catch on is encouraging, and i know he's psyched to be a part of this band. i'm not sure about his stage presence yet, since he has yet to play an actual show with us, but i don't think it'll be anything that we wouldn't be able to fix-if it even turns out to be an issue. his ability to contribute to songwriting is yet to be seen, as well...but i'm confident that everything will fall into place with time. as for myself...i know that i have TONS of room for improvement on all plains. i'd love to get voice lessons, to improve my range and endurance. as for guitar, i'm fairly content with my abilities for the moment, but i still practice everyday. i've been wondering about how intensive my involvement with the guitar is going to be for the future of absent, though, since i've been pondering the possibility of switching over to a primary focus on vocals; not entirely, but...primarily. i dunno...

future: absent definitely has potential to go somewhere. 5 good-lookin' kids with talent, and a brand of music that would definitely get the attention and approval of metal/rock listeners everywhere if they were able to hear it. i do think that we need to get tighter...and we need to get a better handle on the vocal arrangment, now that the vocal responsibilties are on the shoulders of brock and me. also...john and i could use some better equipment. overall, though, i'm confident about absent's future. The Main Thing, though, is for us all to have fun. i really think that all we should do is concentrate on having a good time...and if something comes our way, so be it. i don't think we'll be able to let it all loose like that...but we'll see.

what a day, what a day. i'd definitely give it a ten.

keep in mind that when typing, i consider a "day" to be a full period of consciousness.

so, i slept in mad late, waking around 4:00 PM. i got on the road with plenty of room to make the start time of my sociology exam...everything's fine...i'm cruisin' along Archer Road, listenin' to some King's X...and my car dies. on Archer Road. so i quick throw on my warning lights, while i pray that i don't hit the bumper of the car in front of me. luckily, i roll to a stop before any collision can occur. i try to restart the car several times, but the engine just keeps rolling without success. cars are honking...going around me with hands out their windows...but i'm totally calm, trying to get through to my dad on my phone. i get ahold of mom-she tells me to call drew, have him come out and help me get the car to the side of the road, and call Triple A. so...i call drew, and he agrees to come out to help...and after tryin' the engine a few more times, it turns over.
so i make it to campus around 5, which is when the exam was said to be beginning. i cruise the parking lots; all spaces are taken. after circling around 2 lots several times, a space is finally freed up.
upon entering sociology, i realize that few people are in the classroom. i read the board, which tells me that the exam doesn't begin 'till 5:35. relief mixed with regret for rushing unnecessarily. the exam goes over with a bit of unexpected trouble, but all in all, i'm alright with it.

that's the only part of the day that i really wanted to go into detail with, due to its absolute randomness. i mean, RABIA is a pretty damn good vehicle; i never would have expected it to freak out on me like that...and i never would have expected to be stranded in the middle of traffic on Archer Road-probably the busiest road in Gainesville. so...that was pretty cool; i'm always a fan of anything out of the ordinary.

drew, rob, and i watched a pretty sweet movie on HBO tonight, called...well, i forgot the name. but the star was...amazingly pretty. sooooo pretty. not just "hot," or "sexy," or whatever; she was PRETTY. probably the prettiest actress i'll ever see on television. her name is Brittney Powell, i believe; lemme go check again...yep, that's the name. man...i'm just gonna' stop. the movie, by the way, was called "L.A. Johns." soooooooo pretty. great smile.

drew and i had a wonderful conversation after attempting to watch Magnolia; we had to stop cuz rob fell asleep, and drew needed to get to some homework...but drew and i wound up talking for a good...30 minutes afterwards, at least. reflecting on the past, as we often wind up doing...agreeing that we need to practice more action, and not just theory...talkin' about the future: career possibilities, dreams...sharing crying experiences...thoughts on death, and dealings with it...just...all kinds of stuff. it was great...i felt wonderful afterwards. thank you for drew...thank you. and thank you TO drew, of course. i went in to give him a hug after he'd retreated to his room-and i wound up scaring him to death after putting my hands on his shoulders (he was absorbed by his computer screen)-but it was fine; authenticity is always great. and i'm glad i didn't just pass up my want to just give him a hug as a result of it seeming too corny or whatever. "More action, less theory"

i've been working out a whole lot...soooo sore, but it's a good sore. and i'm still psyched by the thought of dreads.

i'm working on a new blog, so i'll post the addy whenever it's done. it's just going to be poetry and lyrics, since i've kinda' built a wall against that sorta think with this blog.

i'm actually tired tonight...rock on. one silly little paper to do later today, and i'll be completely free of any and all schoolwork. goodmorning...

it's raining

God...it's so wonderful to sit inside with the windows open and just listen to the rain; it's absolutely beautiful. oh!-and there's a cricket that JUST started singing. All of this is happening while track 7 off of Sigur Ros is beginning. it's...bliss. and i'm so glad that i'm typing this while it's actually happening.

and cars drive down the wet streets surrounding our complex...and that cricket keeps singing...and the rain drizzles down the gutter alongside my apartment...and a group of friends is talking right outside my door, completely unaware of any of this. it's a gift...and only i can experience this, during this moment...just me.

and people doubt the possibility of a God.

i wish it would rain all night...

i put Incubus's Morning View and Hoobastank's debut in my 3 cd rotator...and after several listens, i've pretty much come to the conclusion that Incubus have nearly worn out their welcome. I enjoy maybe...half of the record, and the other half just gives me a headache. TERRIBLE RECORDING QUALITY, which i cannot understand. and Brandon has resorted to yelling (not screaming, but singing very loudly) incomprehensibly on several occasions; there would be no way to understand certain vocal lines if the lyrics weren't included in the booklet...so this saddens me. as far as Hoobastank goes, i enjoy every song on the record, and after watching their video for "Crawling in the Dark," it's obvious to me that their stage show is much more entertaining than Incubus's. also, the recording quality is MUCH better than Morning View's-and it's not even THAT good.
S.C.I.E.N.C.E. will forever remain as one of the best quality recordings i've heard, and i just CANNOT understand how so many aspects of Incubus's music have gone down the tubes. *tear* "Nothing gold can stay..."

expect a listing of my favorite albums/songs/movies of the year sometime soon. props to Frank for making the idea available for theft.

how many of you will disown me after i grow my dreads?

math ends today. one last exam...which i have yet to study for. so...i'm predicting a very, very bad grade...but maybe something crazy will happen, and it'll wind up being insanely easy. one can only hope.

if anyone has any advice on how to best preserve/improve my voice, i'd be very grateful.
I swear...if i could only have one present for christmas, it would be an extended vocal range. in all honesty, there's nothing i want more than that right now-to sing virtually any note that i please. i HATE not being able to hit certain notes. HATE. so please...if anyone knows how i could best work on this...or knows of a special elixir or something that would help...or knows a specialist that i could hire...ANYTHING-let me know. Rock.

Meghan Hamblet is officially my bitch. her blog says so.

loreleia: i hope everything went well with the ACT...you've gotta' be able to come up here. there's no room for debate on this issue.

for anyone desiring a comment engine that's more reliable than ReBlogger, check out SnorComments at http://www.snorland.com/scripts/snorcomments/

saw most of a pretty cool movie last night, called Love Kills. deranged action/comedy flick with Mario Van Peebles and Daniel Baldwin, along with other faces that i've seen but cannot name. Seeing Mario with his dreads inspired the whole resurgence of a desire for my own. very cool, very smooth.

alright...i'm forcing myself to sleep. we're on the homestretch, guys...

Hoobastank VS Incubus: Who will win? I'm thinking Incubus; if not for musical value, then for Brandon's critically acclaimed abs.

SO CLOSE. Two exams left; only one that will receive any real stress from me. Sunday will be fully comprised of studying, but that's fine-as long as I rock that Sociology exam like no Sociology exam has been rocked before. It's crazy to think that i could manage a high-B in that class after missing so many classes and failing the first two quizzes.

...crazy to think that one-eighth of my college career could be done with already.

crazy.

Ocean's Eleven looks quite good...i'm dying to see it...but...yeah. tis the season to spendallofyourmoneyonotherpeople. which is always awesome; i just wish i'd win the lottery or something...but i'm really hoping to get a job at this record store around the corner that's just about to open, called Subversion Records. that'd be another of my dreams taken care of.

Jon Lovitz is damn funny, as is Dana Carvey. where did these guys go? if it were not for SNL reruns, i might have forgotten. not altogether...but...dammit. where are they?
and Joe Pesci (sp?)? where's he at?

watched Dazed and Confused last night with Drew. Decent flick...in fact, i might actually consider buying it because of the emotional effects that it had on me (high-school reminiscence) and the brand of humor that it employs. it's definitely one of those movies that i could only share with certain people, due to its intended audience. but anyway...great performances, and it was quite interesting to see Ben Affleck and Matthew McConneghey (or however the hell you spell it) at a younger age.

sooner or later, I AM GOING TO GROW DREADS...and i WILL improve the appearance of my muscles. i decided that my ideal physical status would be one similar to that of Lajon from Sevendust. check it out at www.sevendust.com, if you want. i realize that this may all seem atypical of me or whatever...but...it's late...and the truth (and nonsense) often comes out easier at times like this. comments?

time to sleep, so i can wake up at a decent hour to study math-one last time. goodnight...

running on zero sleep...again. got a 70 on my math exam last night...which guaranteed me at least a C in the class...so Rock.

3 Exams to go. Bio, Math, and Sociology. Bliss shall commence afterwards...i must celebrate somehow...any ideas?

man...if i ever get uninspired musically, all i have to do is throw on some Dream Theater. The talent in that band is incredible.

i haven't posted anything at all concerning the kid that lives in the room across from me, so i guess i should. Christopher Grimm. college dropout. wasting valuable space in a collegiate apartment. living like a hermit. leaving messes for Drew, Rob and me to clean up. getting pissed at me for having a problem with his inconsideracy. chris. my only gripe about living in the apartment. why won't the gods of obesity reclaim this beast and take him back to the realm of behemoths? i'll never know. that's my little ditty on chris.

i've been writing lots of quiet, major stuff with my acoustic lately. ...yeah.

in addition, i've been seriously considering restricting myself to vocals in absent, and NO, i didn't start thinking of this possibility when frank left. i've been tossing it around only recently. and once again, i've only been thinking about it. it's likely that nothing will come of it. any thoughts, though?

i'm starting to feel like this post is forced...so that's a definite cue for me to end it. 20 days till Santa comes to town, everybody.

today's song
Dream Theater: Hell's Kitchen
completely instrumental...a story in itself...amazing talent/songwriting...i am overwhelmed each time i hear it.

Question. When conversating, do you normally watch the other person's mouth, or their eyes? Really think about it...and if you have trouble deciding, ask yourself again after a day or two.
I'm discovering that I am a mouth-watcher.

walked/jogged/ran for 50 minutes the other day to get to the stadium (the bus doesn't come around as often on saturdays as it does on weekdays, so i got impatient)...and the Gators lost. intense game...but damn. at least the best team won...i suppose that's what's important. no roses for UF.

MOMENT OF HORROR: my cd player no longer plays Pink Floyd; the first cd of the 2-cd set Echoes, anyway. does it have a personal vendetta against Pink? is my cd player sick of my lack of appreciation for the countless hours of labor it exhudes in bringing me musical entertainment and enlightenment? OR...does the system simply need to be cleaned? You be the judge.

my ear. is killing me. reminds me of how absolutely terrified i would be if something ever happened to my hearing. i seriously might consider...something very irrational if the aid provided by doctors, surgeons, and such wasn't enough to restore it. i had tubes in my ears when i was younger (i used to get ear infections ALL THE TIME, and i think that the purpose of the tubes was to help drain fluid...i'm not exactly sure on the specifics; i should find out), and i've had an ear drum rupture (tear)...so...it is pretty freaky for me. music is absolutely essential for my happiness...and if i wasn't able to receive it with satisfaction...i'd go out of my head. we're talking Beethoven antics, here (after becoming deaf, Beethoven became...pretty odd. look up specifics if you're unfamiliar)...and probably worse. so...away, evil ear spirits...away with you.

i wish i could help brian out in some way...he's so stuck on gettin' a girl...same with brock. those two are so damn picky, though...and there's nothing wrong with that...but lamenting over lack of female companionship when there are girls that really want to get with you seems kind of silly to me. i mean, yes...everyone desires love...but if you search for it too hard...i believe it'll be harder to find than it would be if you just relaxed, and enjoyed all the other fruits that life has to offer. i'm desiring an appropriate famous quote here...but i can't find it. *insert appropriate famous quote here: ____________________________________________________.*

Sigur Ros is...inexplicably beautiful. Pink Floyd is wonderful. Listen to these bands, people.

watched The Crow the other night, for the ____nth time. such a good movie...wish they could make more like that these days. Also watched the Elephant Man, directed by David Lynch. GREAT MOVIE. just...go rent it. Anthony Hopkins stars. just...please. rent it, and watch it alone.
In addition, i just finished watching Almost Famous; also for the _____nth time. I love it...gotta' own it...

5 pages must be written for film class today. i have about...4 hours to do it (assuming i completely forget about sleeping tonight). i'm not worried about the writing...but my neck is really aching. so blah on that. while on the subject, i've recently come to the realization that i have a pretty long neck. agreed?

incense <-------is that how you spell it? regardless...i'm in love with them, and i know that i'm going to become addicted. i'll probably wind up getting an awesome "incense" holder, as well...of course, anything would beat my current one, which consists of a bottle cap filled with already-chewed gum to hold the stick. but man...it's great. it's amazing how the entire mood of the apartment changes with new scent. and it was perfect with Almost Famous...and it's perfect with Pink Floyd...it's just...i know that i'm going to be stuck on it for an indefinite amount of time. i just need more sticks. and a lighter.

alright...i really should get this damned paper done. only...9 more days. NINE MORE DAYS, and i'll be free of practically all stress for almost an entire month. and Christmas. *sigh of absolute joy*

Melo: forest green
Lauren: vivid maroon
Brock: smokescreen gray
Brian: dark blue
Crystal: comforting violet
Drew: red-hot red
JR: smiley yellow (lol, sorry bro...)
Rob: serious brown
Parents: water-reflecting-sunset orange
Frank: extremely-light blue
Axel: lavender
