after monday i am done, and i know at the end of that day i will feel so good. so i am just waiting for that day. i might be getting into lykke li june 1 for free. i want to drive around in the sun every second of my life. i wrote about discovery for pma and then twitter blessed me with this and this. i think he means "write-up" and i wonder whether "sweet" denotes "really nice" or "awesome." last night though it was raining and i was in the car with osaka loop line on and everything was so good.
and they found everett ruess's body!

LUPINE OOLOGY aka. my fake band with katie, cath, and fiorenza, is up and running and we have recorded one song called "ethan frome (prelude)." it basically summarizes key points of the book with some creative garageband and looping.

just got back last night to news that late of the pier are playing in NYC april 1. who is coming with me.
FRANCE WAS AWESOME:
this is KT and i essentially having a food orgasm. once finishing the eclairs we talked about them for 30+ minutes. it was so tasty we seemed to be confusing areas of the brain relating to feelings about things (this makes no sense). eating it was pretty much the same feeling i got when i had my bittie crisis a little while ago. CRAZY.
was on the guest list for ra ra riot but could not go as i wasn't allowed out of the hotel. i did get to see peaches n' gregg cover flume on top of the eiffel tower, though.
just gonna put it out there that jonas_secrets' sporadic updating is possibly the most annoying thing ever. i just want to see some unintentionally hilarious macros about babies, clouds, and their relation to kevin jonas.

PANTS-DROPPIN' NEW PICKUP LINE:
"is someone doing a jigsaw puzzle in here? because i just found a HOT PIECE."
might have to use this TOMORROW NIGHT. haha not really. were i given the chance, it would just come out "we're gonna order chinese food... RIGHT BEFORE YOU DO ME." or maybe just the last two words. or maybe just "OMFG ILU."
anyway i'm totally done applying to college & will be purchasing balcony front-row grizzly bear tickets for a brooklyn opera house asap. i am beginning to feel senioritis gnawing at my bones. BRING THAT SHIT ON PLZ + THANK U.

SEPTEMBER
18: bloc party, apparently at roseland?
21: nyc wizard rock meetup
OCTOBER
2: andrew bird at tarrytown music hall
16: ra ra riot at bowery ballroom
NOVEMBER:
14: girl talk in boston?
DECEMBER:
3: vampire weekend at terminal 5
this will grow. i only actually have tickets for the october shows. both september shows are free and i only think the bloc party show's at roseland because of commenters on brooklynvegan, and i only know there is one because of my total mastery of the internet. i might go see preeta / girl talk in boston. vw goes on sale friday and rest assured I WOULD SOONER DIE than not be THERE, in the front row. WILL I SEE YOU, ANYWHERE?
you should buy this walkmen album by the way

today was incredible.
i have no words for it.
everything was perfect. everything, like -- i have four-five books ruined currently drying in front of the fan, i am a total mess exhausted physically, mentally... i thought i was going to faint for about a half hour with the heat and etc., then standing in the rain hunched over i don't even know what i was thinking, i was worried i guess that it wouldn't happen but then: then, oh, then, everything!
like everyone's heartbeat in the world in my chest
like the rain all around you screaming
the sound and the fury and nature, thunder / lightning
BUT GOD I HAVE NEVER BEEN SO HAPPY TO BE ALIVE
"you're already wet; all you can do is fucking dance!"
