i can't be political

i suck at it...

It's always made me feel pretty dumb that I have no solid political affiliation and have no desire to discuss politics or take a side on an issue. Of course I have my opinions, but I don't want to argue with you about them (unless it's about culture, haha).

Thinking about high school brought up some memories about certain people. This one ridiculous person who I've been thinking about a lot lately. He was a big fan of making people feel dumb...very good at arguing :) It didn't seem to bother me though.

I am, however, very good at being random. I just downloaded a Band of Horses song and I am madly in love. "No One's Gonna Love You" is magical. 

"Anything to make you smile..."

...wow, the girl behind that lyric is very lucky. I am so overwhelmed by all the music out there. It's exciting to think about all the amazing sounds I haven't heard yet. I get bored with most bands...they all sound like each other. But then a great band comes along. They may not be that talented, but they know how to make an interesting sound. I love Loney, Dear. The song "The Battle of Trinidad and Tobago" is perhaps one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. 

"I've been a loser and I've been a fool over you..."

The lyrics are exhaustingly boring, but if you put yourself in the right mindset you'll be consumed by the meaning behind the song. I think it's a bit extreme to say you've been to heaven and hell over someone. I mean, I know what it feels like to like someone soooo much that you feel the extremes of every emotion...but come on...heaven and hell? well, to each there own. I do love loney, dear. A very interesting sound. 

I saw Juno tonight. Not to be an overly pretentious hipster, but I loved it. The music was brilliant first off. So simple, the lyrics are so cute...oh geez. And the movie itself was adorable. The actress did a great job but her image was scarred in my mind to some degree after seeing her in Hard Candy...creepster. It was a lovely film regardless, and I want to the soundtrack. 

"I'm in love with how you feel..."
