| Codie live from Austin! |
| 05.31.04 (7:24 pm) [edit] |
Okay, I decided to make this a normal blog and a music review site. I'll still have the personal one, but of course, it's still not my persoal journal, though, so I'm still vauge.
Well, I'm in Austin. I'm in Austin and my mom won't let me go to a local show. ::piss, whine::
I'm so stressed about alot of stuff, but I'm sure no one here cares. I might post a little about it when I get home.
Friends! Call me! Cheryl! Leslie! Mikka! Cody! someone! I'm dying! 438 3433. I need to talk!
I'm hitting the road again tomarrow and I'll be in San Antionio. I MIGHT be back...thurday-ish? I plan on sleeping alot when I get home. Except the fact that I plan on living with a friend in Lubbock working, 'cause I need money. Well, dinner is ready. You cats have fun without me.
::cry::

Expect a full review on, uh...maybe The Anniversary. That's it. Something totally emo and delicious.
Update in progress on the personal crap. :(

Hip-Hop is the triple threat-
Expanding like the internet-
Time to place your bets..."

Well, I'm going to attempt to do a review on Sparta's Wiretap Scars while listining to some Sleater-Kenny.
Okay. As you may know, I reeeaallllyyyy like At The Drive In. Like, almost to much. There was this one time last summer were I was stuck to them for like two solid months. :? Well, I heard this album a long time ago. Before the Mars Volta album. But I didn't really take notice. Then other friends started getting into it more (i.e. Aaron Smith) so I gave it another shot.
This was when I was writing all my depressing crap (which is still going on, and off, and on. I'm really scared) and it was so good then.
The album in itself is pretty emo. Like, real emo. Good emo. It has sad lyrics (sad but not whiny; they're smart, like good emo) and split, distorted guitars stacked with some pretty cool drums.
It starts with the single Cut Your Ribbon, which starts out with a pretty cool drum beat thing. Then the singer screams in your ears and your adrenalin gets pumping instantly. But don't let the first song mislead you. The following songs are pretty gloomy and toally not screamy.
You'll definately have a couple of the intros stuck in your head for a few days. I still have them stuck in mine. But the intros of the songs are all thats great. Besides having catchy intros for almost all of the songs, the songs in themselves never get old like ever. And, if your like me and jump around the album, never listining through it, you'll find some new part in some new song that you havn't heard before and you'll be stuck on that song for the next three days.
Well, anyway. You'll definatly enjoy this album if your looking for something that isn't to hard, but it's not that whiny crap they try and sell you on mtv as 'emo.'
This isn't your pop emo... if that upsets any of you, well then you can go to your stupid warped tour and you can listen to your Yellowcard and your New Found Glory. Because people like me don't like you Good Charlotte groupie 'we really are punk, no really' attitudes. You listen to your Saves the Day and your Get Up Kids and your Dashboard Confessional and you prance around like you know emo and like your sad and you tell everyone that you're going to kill yourself and...and... you show everyone your dirty poetry and you beg for sympothy and you do your pot and smoke at that Dave Matthews concert when you decide you want to get in touch with nature and then you listen to your Avril and your Blink 182 and then you make your way to the nu metal crap with your Nickel Back and Three Doors Down and you go to your crummy rock shows and then you finally relize that none of that music is true. Then, and only then, may you come and join a chat my friends and I put on and discuss nothing all the time.
You only wish...

| Always something going on in my life. |
| 05.06.04 (7:05 pm) [edit] |
Well, these next couple of weeks are going to be rough on me. Things are rough now (read my personal blog to find out the details), but things are going to get hectic, along with the roughness...
Tonight I went to go see our One Act preform Man of La Mancha, which was SO freaking good. I love those kids, such hard workers. Speaking of Theatre, Next week is the Thespian Banquet. My friends and I are all dressing in black and pink, despite that it's popular in the world of fasion right now. I plan on wearing a nice black suit with a pink undershirt and possibly a pink and black stripped tie. Hmmm...
I skipped out on the Band Banquet tonight, I didn't have a date, but I didn't really want to go anyway. Excuses.
I don't have school tomarrow but I won't be bored because I have to go shop for my outfit...and I'm going to the Goodwill and Savers. Wow, what fun. I'll have the cheapest clothes there. I don't have a date to that, either, but my friends are going and they don't have dates either. It'll be me and three girls looking their best. I'm so luckey.
Then Finals week. Then a week of going to band practice all week and the weekend after school is out, I get to go to Austin and preform in two percussion Ensambles (one a jazzy full percussion ensamble, the other an 'abstract' ensamble that doesn't make sense) at the University of Texas.
Well, I'm going to go and, I guess sleep or something. Not much else to do. Or eat. Or play Video Games. Or go get a cup of coffee. Wow, what options. I'll go get coffe and then eat a sandwinch and then play The Legend Of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, then read my book, then sleep. Haha, I'm so...uh...stupid.
Bye. :roll:

| Another great indie film... |
| 05.05.04 (5:31 pm) [edit] |
Today I saw an indie film (my mom actually recommended it...yes, my mom; she didn't know it was indie...) entitled "Pieces of April." It's about this girl who is, well, I guess an outcast, or the black sheep of the family, "The first pancake..." as she says in the movie (the one you throw out). She cooks Thanksgiving dinner for her family, who doesn't like her. I don't want to ruin anything, so go rent it. It's great.
Also, since my last review was fairly decent, and over The Mars Volta, I decided that my next one should be over my new obsession, their counterpart Sparta. It's sadder than The Mars Volta. Which I guess is part of the reason I'm stuck to it. Well, this isn't the review, so I'll stop talking about it.
Um... well, I have a major thing going wrong right now, so I gotta jet.

| I took the test. |
| 05.04.04 (5:20 pm) [edit] |
I took a test on what soap opera star I was. The link is on Mikka's site (link to hers on the left).
Here are the results:
The Wise Benefactor
What soap opera doesn't have the all-powerful, head of the family who's been on-air since the pilot episode? Sure, The Wise Benefactor has probably come back from comas, near fatal accidents, abductions, mysterious illnesses, botched murders, and multiple corporate takeovers. But they're the heart of the show with their integrity, sense of right and wrong, and ability to magically make things happen around the town.
Like The Wise Benefactor, you're a true original who can't be replaced — which is why you're sure to be around for a long time. There's just no substitute for your wise and powerful personality. And people can't help but to ask for your advice when times are tough. That's because they know you'll tell it like it is.
Always a warm soul, though sometimes you do exhibit some cold ambition, you keep your family together and are probably also the center for lots of happenings. The town wouldn't be the same without you, so keep doling out the advice, giving folks a hand-up when they need it, and putting people in their place when the time is right. If it weren't for you, who would keep the family, much less the town, afloat?

| My day, since the link doesn't want to behave |
| 05.03.04 (5:19 pm) [edit] |
Today has sucked. All day. The only good thing that happened was that I got my c.d.'s back, so I can lock myself in my room again. I'm so stressed. I don't know. I've got band, and Sub Rosa (which is okay, don't worry Mr. S.), and theatre...and people in general.
Last night Jolynn came over and we talked like we used to. It was fun.
I don't know.
I'm one of the few people who actually has a grip on reality at this school, and it just stresses me out. People think that I'm SO light hearted and put all this responsibility on me. I can't even spell 'responsibility' two-thirds of the time! So, I came home and I did what I always did and I cried. I cried the other day, too. I cry alot. I have yet to put a face to my sorrow, though, so I'm getting even more worried. I don't know.
I've been getting into the habit of turning off my cell phone at night and waking up with alot of messages of people freaked out wondering if I'm still alive. Its pretty funny! My girlfriend gets the most spooked, though, and that makes me sad. I just don't like talking to people as much as I did.
Maybe I should, I don't know. Whatever my problem, I need to isolate it and destroy it.
I'm still stuck in my book (The Da Vinci Code) but it reads fast, so I'll finish it soon (Don't worry Leslie).
I'm going to go listen to some music.

:( I'm not feeling the best today. I updated my "Life and how I deal with it" and "friends" pages. Read them and laugh at my deep seeded insecurities within myself! Yay for bad days! ::cries::
