lady sing the blues so well, as if she mean it...



i'm entering a regina spektor obsession, which I've experienced before, but hannah recently gave me a bunch of new ones, and I'm especially obsessing over "Lady" (hence the title). I really want to go play it on piano right now...but alas, i'm stuck in a totally pointless English class in which we are confined to the pretentious rectangle that is Anne D's room. Even though she's not here.

i am literally in heaven now. school is essentially over, and I don't know how my French teacher will expect me to continue paying attention. even though I haven't paid attention all year...so i have photography, French, and Latin American short stories as non-AP classes, and they are all kind of a joke.

Miranda, Aditi, and I had a lot of fun studying for APES on Sunday. I love Miranda's house because a.) her mom always makes really good food, and they always HAVE really good food/snacks, b.) it's always cold, and c.) it just feels really relaxing and nostalgic. I'm really excited to get ready for slash go to prom with them...i really want to go take pictures in a cool field beforehand, but we'll see how practical that is in heels.

I still need to record that song I wrote a few weeks ago...I have a list of songs I want to cover because I either have visions for them or i just really like them:

-A Boy with a Coin
-The Freshmen
-Love and Happiness
-Baby Won't You Please Come Home
-Moondance
-Milkshake
-Lady

It's kind of short, but I always think of more and never write them down. Oh, well. I should probably at least deal with these first anyway. Speaking of which, I never finished Night and Day or the song Brayden and I were working on...mainly because I got discouraged by both of them...

Seriously, Harker blocks Shutterfly? I was going to work on the new "volume" of my poetry book. I still have to buy Aneea a sweatshirt, too.

I've been writing a lot lately. I'm really inspired by a lot of things, but i'm kind of apathetic toward executing them, which is what i never want to happen. I also really want to just be hit with an idea for a short story or novel that isn't as intricate as i've been trying to make them....simplify, simplify, simplify....
