dis be da dope post

i’m in my advanced web design class and what else is a student in class with a computer connected to the internet going to do? yes, go online. i thought i would do a quick post because…well, just because i’m not doing anything else. not that i’m not paying attention, i’m just multi-tasking.
maybe you are [...]

wetnesday

ha.see what i did there? with the title? since it’s rainy? yes, yes, clever is my adopted middle name, just after privacy and just before control. and no, my first name ain’t baby. although, nobody puts baby in a corner so i dunno, maybe i should consider a change.
the weeks have been sort of not [...]

is this too obvious of a song choice?

last last night was so…interesting.
kathy had gone to sleep around midnight and i headed off to bed a couple hours later. for some reason, i was more agitated than usual about the noise outside my window. there seemed to be even more noise than usual for a friday night in the LES, which is already [...]

happy chinese (lunar) new year!
i would have posted last night, but i didn’t. i was busy cleaning the apartment which is tiny and gets dirty very fast. here is a chinese song because it is relevant, somewhat. it’s not about new year’s at all. it’s this poetic jay chou thing about i don’t know storms [...]

this is a song i think everyone should listen to when they wake up on the weekend. contrary to the title of the post it is not by james brown. it’s the kind of song you should dance around in your underwear to. not that i’m saying that i dance around in my underwear all [...]

secret lives

our neighbor isn’t loud, well, not particularly loud, but maybe our walls are just thin. we never hear anything scandalous, maybe kathy does when she’s working in her office area (which just means the table next to the fridge). she tells me that he always brings girls home late and then leaves in the morning [...]

bringing brandy back

ok.
i’m back.
i would have come back earlier, but i pulled my hamstring….or is that just a string made of ham and not a muscle? anyway, i pulled some muscle found between your knee and your hip. my knee and my hip. and, i did it while i was just standing there. yep. just out of [...]

poor heath ledger. i don’t care if he was getting all this good acting work done recently, i thoroughly enjoyed 10 things i hate about you. anyway, here’s lauryn hill’s version of the song he sang in that movie for a short while when he was convincing julia stiles to get with him.
you may think, [...]

shanana pancakes

i am learning the song banana pancakes by jack johnson on the ukulele. i was inspired by steph and i hope by the time we get back we will be able to kanikapila.
as a result of my learning, the song has been stuck in my head for over a day. unfortunately, all i know are [...]

i decided a topic

i’m going to write about one song-thing a post. i think i can keep up with that, maybe not daily, but not infrequently. or maybe i should commit and do daily. well. i can decide that tomorrow.
