lists



Three things I have been doing a lot lately:
-Eating
-Taking photos
-Feeling guilty about eating too much

Bonus fourth thing:
-Not doing my homework

Five of my new favorite songs:
-Let Go - jj
-Swim - Surfer Blood
-10 Mile Stereo - Beach House
-Low Shoulders - Toro y Moi
-Triangle Walks (Rex the Dog Remix) - Fever Ray

Anyone ever notice how embarrassingly self involved blogs are? I realize that this is pretty ironic considering I'm writing it on a blog ALL ABOUT ME that basically no one else reads. But, come to think of it, most of the internet is like that. Twitter updates all of your adoring fans about what you ate for breakfast, Formspring is a tool for all of your admirers to anonymously gush over you, and - let's be honest - people primarily use Facebook for updating their profile pictures and adding quirky things to their "Info" boxes in vain hope that it shows up on their secret crush's feed. There are plenty of other things, too, but I can't think of them. So let's just say the internet is a big showcase for how awesome you are. And before you (yes, you, nonexistent reader) call me a hypocrite, I'm self-aware. I have a Formspring and a Facebook, and a goddamn blog nobody reads (Twitter's too insufferable and lingo-y and confusing for me). Wanna know why I have those things? Because I care about what people think of me. Not as much as some people I know, but I'm curious to hear Anonymous' unconstrained, poorly-typed opinion of me. And I want to show certain people that YES! WE HAVE SO MUCH IN COMMON!! PLEASE SPARE ME A PASSING GLANCE!! WE COULD BE LOVERS!!!!!!
But at least I can admit it. That's the first step.
