once upon a time in cha-town. [18 Jul 2008|06:12pm] lovethiswhore [ music | Jackson's Java ambience. ] Valerie and I are on a quest to watch the worst movie ever this summer. Suggestions? So far, we've seen the following: Bring It On: In It To Win It Killer Drag Queens On Dope That's it thus far. Remember, we're hunting up movies that are so bad they're AMAZING, not movies that are just bad. For example, Solaris, which I watched last night, is just bad. Killer Drag Queens on Dope, on the other hand, is so bad that it's effing spectacular. I am happy. Happy happy happy. Unbelievably so. 2 +

[17 Jul 2008|11:11am] an_engine [ mood | happy ] [ music | "the next movement (live)"- the roots ] There's nothing better than The Roots live. Nothing. I've been sitting around listening to them all morning and I remembered the concert they had with O.A.R. at Davidson College and it was the best concert I've experienced. They'd just gotten this new touring guitarist named Capt. Kirk Douglas who was this mixture of bob dylan and saul williams; I've never drooled so much in my entire life. Jamila went with me. We danced and danced and danced and afterwards we went and got coffee at summit ( i think) ... i want that day back. +

[13 Jul 2008|12:14am] shesmy_maggot Last night my dream was of me and some male accomplice running toward a spaceship in the dead of night. I said something really explicit like, "So are we really going to set the bomb off and destroy the earth, then kill ourselves with poison in the space capsule?" We went up in the ship, which was kind of like a one room Death Star. I remember the view of the planet, with all the tiny explosions going off. Then, I knew everyone on earth was dead. I felt my head getting fuzzy. It was like falling asleep in the dream and I thought, death is really coming. I grew terrified, though the fuzziness continued. I realized that there was no reason for me to die yet, and I struggled with all my might. Thats when I woke up. 1 +

[12 Jul 2008|02:55am] aks131415 i  feel sick all the time now and really really nervous.  i figure if i'm going to suffer consequences for things (that i did not do) , i might as well get the pleasure of actually committing the crimes. in other words, i think i'll just go fuck the entire city of charlotte so that i can be the dirty little tramp every one thinks i am.  the idea of getting the hell out of here is thrilling. things will blow over, i know that for sure.  after months of complaining about my missing camera, i have finally found it. sad thing is, the only thing i have taken pictures of, is the plastic hand that i wear on my own hand sometimes for fun. i mean, sure, it's funny. but not necessarily funny enough to take up all the space on my memory card.  it is so comforting to know that people secretly read this. 1 +

[10 Jul 2008|03:21pm] emersoncollege [jazapato] Are you moving out/getting rid of all your things at the end of August? If so, I'd love to take whatever furniture (ie: couches,tables, bed, etc) from you when I move into my place on September 1st! Let me know what you plan on selling/tossing so I can take it off your hands! I'll gladly help pay for a U-Haul or other costs. My e-mail is riotontheradio@gmail.com and I'll be living in Central Square. P.S. I'm posting here (instead of searching on Craigslist later) because I'd love to set something up in advance.

[10 Jul 2008|03:54pm] pugh I propose that the world is not filled with phallic monuments. Rather, we are surrounded by nipples. From the beginning, we are trained to love sucking on small circular objects that fit nicely between our lips. As neonates, we would accept nothing else into our mouths, evidenced by the synthetic, discrete non-nipple looking nipple designed to mimic the look and feel of a woman's breast ornamenting the top of baby bottles. Bottles today have an even more cleverly disguised nipple-shaped opening. And we do love our bottles. Much more than cups, unless there's a straw that can nestle ever so nicely into one's mouth, allowing you to suckle happily on the teat of your temporary plastic mother. The humble lollipop, perpetually condemned as a tasty penis, seems to me to be more of a swollen candy boob. I hate being horny in child development because my world is suddenly comprised of fleshy holes yielding liquids. 1 +

Calling incoming Emerson grad students!

"What about my ankles? Do you like them?" "Yes, enormously..." [09 Jul 2008|12:28am] an_engine [ mood | curious ] [ music | "Contempt"- The Books ] Someone please explain to me when placing a simple fucking phone call to a person became a major event?! I'm at a loss since I am not very experienced with this whole "Hey-call-me-tomorrow" nonsense. Especially since I didn't. oops. Why can't snail mail be convenient anymore? And carrier pigeons? Those means of communication hold more weight than the telephone!!!! Right?! RIGHT?! Christ. Other than my telephone call issues, I went jog-walking again today. Second time this week and I'm noticing how quickly my hips have perked up. By that, I mean I'm usually not very aware of them when I don't do much physical activity, but when I do whoa nelly I feel like Shakira. <-- (Overstatement?) Taking care of myself and giving a damn about being aesthetically pleasing to myself feels good and, dare I say, sexy. I feel sexier. Something I've never carved out time or space in my head to do in all my years of relishing in my unkempt glory. But I'm keeping my hair... I think that my hair provides a balance between my newfound vanity and my ever-present ambivalence towards appearing clean. My phone keeps staring at me. +

Emerson vs. Columbia College [05 Jul 2008|09:44pm] emerson_faq [whenidream] I was admitted early action for this year but I've to do a year at a local state college to get gen ed classes out of the way, and I'm hoping to transfer to Emerson in the fall of 2009. However, I've been thinking about other schools, and I was wondering if anyone currently had considered Columbia College Chicago as an option or knows anything about its reputation. I'm planning on going to an open house at Columbia, but I wanted to get a little perspective on it now. Both have a LA program, a lot of networking opportunities and a TV station, but I haven't seen a lot of comparisons between the two so it's hard to tell which is better in any of those areas. Also, I've heard that teachers at Columbia grade more based on effort, and Emerson seems to be a little more intense about the learning process and hard work, although that's just my first impression. I'd rather learn more and work harder, and my main concern is choosing a school with a reputation/internship opportunity that will give me the best career opportunities in the future (I'm planning to major in Writing for Film & TV and eventually I hope to have a career as a staff writer for a sitcom). I know that Emerson excels in all of these areas which is why it's my first choice, but I was wondering if anyone knew enough about Columbia to make a comparison. Thanks! 3 +
