IT MAKES A MAN OUT OF ME! IT MAKES A MAN OUT OF ME! IT MAKES A MAN OUT OF ME!


I have this crrrrazzy song stuck in my head... I knew I should never have listened to it on the bus. And then these German guys behind me had this wild conversation in which one of them said "kick" like twelve times. I should really learn German.

The clouds last night looked like waves on the ocean, with dramatic shadows and the sun bursting through at opportune moments. Definetely dazzled me. We were on our way to my mum's art show. She does these portraits with two other ladies, the three of them paint the same thing from different perspectives. They did one of a bunch of our friends, its kind of weird to see what people you know look like from the point of view of other people you know? You know?

In art class we are making a life sized octopus, I am in charge of the tentacles. I think that they will have lights in them. Good idea or what? I just got permission to do the eyes too!!

So happy earth day all, and Happy Birthday Dad... A little bit ironic that you're that in to gardening.

Food Reviews

As i was browsing through McSweeney's, i came across this hilarious section of food reviews, here's one that caught my chuckle:

Sugarless Tropical TwistTrident Chewing Gum
Submitted by Sam de Silva
While browsing through old journal entries, I came across this snippet from Monday, September 26, 2005:
The expectations of my family are more suffocating than I thought they would be. On a brighter note, Tropical Twist Trident gum now comes in an "E-Z close" pack ... It's the little things.
Seriously. This stuff is superb.

Here's the link to the section: http://www.mcsweeneys.net/links/newfood/

James Dean Totally Isn't Black


woah, it turns out letters to committees are harder to write than was expected. Maybe because my neck hurts from too many backwards summersaults...

Portals



Alright Miss. Mortimer, i guess i had to do this post,just because before this moment in time (actually, that's a lie, because i found this out this morning when reading cbc like usual) Who the hell James Dean was finally.
Actully, i knew of him. I knew he was popular. It's just that i didn't know why. Seems to be he was a popular actor, made three movies and then died young.
The girl beside him is the italian girlfriend pier. She died later of a overdose of something that started with a B in the sixties.

TWO QUESTIONS


I have two questions that have been bothering me for years (or at least days) :

1.How many strings does a Sitar have?

2. Who the crap is Rick James?

So for answers I ventures to the magical land of Wikipedia:

A sitar has anywhere between 21 and 23 strings

Rick James was a popular motown artist of the late seventies (of Super Freak fame)

So there we go. Mission Accomplished
