7:29 PM.

Soft-spoken with a broken jaw. Wooow. It's been a long time since I posted! I need to get back into the jist of things. Allow me to recap on the past couple of weeks in my life. Johnnie Well, I've finally managed to get over Thomas, and I now have a new guy in my life, and just in time for Valentine's Day! He's a senior, blonde-haired and blue-eyed, and a skater. He's also one of the most polite and humble guys I've ever met, which is a very welcome change. He is also incredibly sweet and affectionate, which is wonderful because I am also a very affectionate person, and I just don't deal well with boyfriends who are afraid to be cuddly in public. Or in private, for that matter. But yes. Johnnie = awesome. I love his hippie name too...his actual name really is Johnnie, spelled that way and everything. Freakin' sweet. Sweet Sixteen In two weeks, my best friend will be turning 16. This is a huge landmark for me, not only because she is growing up, but it is the first sign that I'll soon be reaching that age as well. Sixteen, moreso than any other age, has always held an extremely magical and somehow unattainable quality for me. I never thought that I'd actually turn 16. Ever. But, lo and behold, May 2 is less than three months away. Is there some sort of strange and insane transition that's supposed to occur? I pretty aware about my own personality and maturity, and when the change (for better or for worse), and I know that I've grown up a lot since turning 15. But 16 is still...scary, I suppose. Peter Pan complex? Perhaps. Pixelated Radio Recently, I've discovered a lot of good music and video-media. Rilo Kiley, The Mars Volta, Taking Back Sunday, Rob Zombie, Stone Sour, Wilco, Jack Johnson and The Matches have all piqued my interest musically. I suggest any girl who's ever had a "I love you but you're bad for me" relationship, go listen to "Portions For Foxes" by Rilo Kiley. You will relate beyond all belief. "The Widow", by The Mars Volta, is extremely Cowboy Bebop-esque, and is just such a sexy song. Taking Back Sunday is a wondeful emo band, if you're a fan of the genre. Rob Zombie - great heavy rock and metal (I don't know if it's considered metal, but whatever) to just headbang to rather mindlessly. Stone Sour - go download "Omega" and "Inhale", both of which are insanely fantastic. Wilco I originally go introduced to by Mitch, and I've gotten more into them lately. After hearing "Cookie Jar" courtesy of Alex, and being recommended the album On And On by him, I went out and purchas-iesed it, and damn let me tell you it is some excellent music. The Matches are another great band, I especially enjoy their song "Sick Little Suicide". Also, I have always been a very big fan of The Red Hot Chili Peppers, the melodies are just so lethargic and energetic at the same time and have this roughly smooth quality that I can just groove to endlessly. And the lyrics are so beautiful in this very symbolic, constantly flowing and twisting way. Both melody and lyric just appeal to me on so many levels it's just insane. Anyway, I recently got a copy of their latest CD, By The Way, and I just fell in love with them all over again. They rock. And now my friend is here, so I have to go. I love you all! Talk to you all soon hopefully! .:Commentary:. Liebchen: Oh I did. Especially with Johnnie....*coughwinknudge* Kenarific: Dude, yes, I know. I LOVE that quote from Jefferson. Shinmaru: Psh, I see that all the time. * rolls herself away in a wagon * Solo Tremaine: You know it. I think cooking is so sexy. Hevn: I love your avatar. lea: Can I make love to you too? ;D .:Teh End:. QOTD: "Nothing takes the taste out of penut butter quite like unrequited love." -Charles M. Schultz (Penuts) -Karma
