My Abyss Smiles Back.
somehow, i'm always caught with a straw
i gasp as i stand the edges
the world lashes while holding its sickle
restlessness holds me tirelessly
there's no more happy things to write
i lost all inspiration a while back
doesn't get much better then this
regret the forgetful
forget the regretful
there's never a time to be modest
there's never anyone ever honest
always some constant abuse
always theres numerous misuses
reservation for a song
singing for the wrong
doesn't anybody notice
the screaming in the night?
place the pin on the balloon
dressing up bravery in blue
in this mist of trying to be hated
in this great abyss its smiling
everyone love us more
without even trying
don't blink cause it might disappear
don't ever think that its ever too late
all of my vigor is applied with make-up
will i turn to destroy all of what i've create?
are you listening?
were you listening?
it's been written in stone
but be the one not to know

Cloning is Hilariously Dramatic.
I'm a nerd when it comes to spacey sci-fi movies.
So its an added bonus when they have Kevin Spacey in the mix.
Awesomely awesome.
FYI, Kevin Spacey's the robot, not the dude.

Job Hunt - Hot Topic.
Origami, Polaroids, and a Little Pedobear.
Currently, i'm just listening to some old tunes i haven't listened to in a while: Slowdive, Jesus + Mary Chain, Beck, Franz Ferdinand, so on so forth, da, da, da, da... But also, there's band called 'Yummy Fur' that pretty good sounding, and i think there's a few good video making ideas out of that. But i'll get to it when i feel like it. There's a stack of origami paper laying next to my laptop screen, but i can only make so many cranes. I'd always trying making something new out of creativity, but the result is always WTF --> throw away. Drawing is fun for only so long. So is writing. It's like long-term popcorn in the making; every few often, i'll get a pop here and there, and collect it all until I get a full bag. So far, the bags kinda weak. I will hopefull get more by the time i finish music class. Perhaps.
Everytime, i go on my computer, i'm always annoyed that the only two places i go is either to my youtube channel to constantly check my channel stats, or check out music sites to keep me up to date on album releases + stuff. I kinda wish there more things to do besides video and music. 4chan can only entertain and shock you for so long, but pedobear always makes me laugh a little.
One day, i'll have a costume, just like his,
so i'll get all the children to play with me.
so to speak.

Good Fox, Good Music.
Since the start of the year 2000,
the genre of electronic music and dance-punk
exploded off the air waves.
I don't prefur the sound of electronic beats,
but its a nice listen.

Go watch it, though your ways of illegal downloading.
(But do that on your own time.)
I could go for some country balls.
Heard they taste pretty sweet.
Just wonder how they glue it together.

White People Needs Indie.
"If you want to understand white people, you need to understand indie music. As mentioned before, white people hate anything that’s “mainstream” and are desperate to find things that are more genuine, unique, and reflective of their experiences. Fortunately, they have independent music.
A white person’s iPod (formerly CD collection) is not merely an assemblage of music that they enjoy. It is what defines them as a person. They are always on the look out for the latest hot band that no one has heard of so that one day, they can hit it just right and be into a band BEFORE they are featured in an Apple commercial. To a white person, being a fan of a band before they get popular is one of the most important things they can do with their life. They can hold it over their friends forever!
But BE WARNED, talking about Indie Music with white people is perhaps the most dangerous subject you touch upon. One false move and you will lose their respect and admiration forever. Here are some general rules:
you lose. They own you.
As a born and raised white person, all of this written above is quite true. Indie music is the unofficial piece of gold white people need everyday, of every second. It is quite a sensitive subject for us to talk about, so be careful!

Mindless Banter, Session 6.
and the weather surrenders into the frost.
Palms closed, and my eyes wide shut
to see somber in another life,
caught and stumbled onto the quagmire,
strife found its way through
every single drop stars shed in melancholy.
I think i've made it into the other side of things,
still, i don't believe you know my name.
The center caught up to my feet
and i'm back in the crowd.
It was only then i felt the first drop on my back.

Romance is Boring.
This will be its 6th year.
Enjoy.
"Really, I’ve never noticed a girl like you before.
Obdurate hearts like mine has never came across these unfamiliar plains.
Maybe, it’s only just my thoughts thinking louder then logic will allow.
As I’m hoping that these ideas would just go away.
Nothing spectacular about the way you dress or the way your face is shaped.
Could just be the lighting in the room or the sunlight though the glass
Either way, emotions will always steer us the wrong way.
I’m convinced that romance is boring.
Somehow, for a moment, I caught you smiling as you caught me staring.
Nothing got me so invigorated then the sounds of my heartbeat thumping
Elements of affliction surfaced in my mind but I wouldn’t let these thoughts show.
Vivid in every single color, I’d wish to find us a fairy tale ending.
Eighty-seven times I tried writing it all out so you’d understand.
Right or just mistaken, I just would like to tell you in every single way
But just don’t think of me in the worst of intentions;
Only if romance wasn’t so complicated.
Roses or chocolate always seems too generic these days.
I know that everyone wants something close to heart
Nevertheless, I went and gathered all the pocket change collected,
Gone to the department stores to buy her things shaped in crystal.
Waiting for tomorrow, I wished to see the delighted look on your face.
Hoping to hold you along my chest and dance so ever after;
Even if romance wasn’t so expansive.
Now I stand in an array of swirling colors, as I’m entering your presence.
You glanced and waltzed your way with a white glow following your every move.
Only this time, I found my hands stuck deep in mid-air, calling your name.
Unfortunately, you never heard, and some other guy whisked you away.
Rolling over back into the crossroads, as I fold back along the frosty winds,
Ever so, I wished to think this wasn’t the ending fate had created
As her shining glare burns my hopes in to carbonic ash.
Romance, I found, is not always for the one who desires it most;
Or for the dresses up and wait for its call to arrive.
Underneath all the heartbreak and short-comings, hearts of paramours continue on
Never look back to regret, but always venture into unknown.
Don’t ever think romance is ever boring. "

Driving Made Easy.
Driving test would be a lot easier automated.
Better then waking up 5 in morning and wait over three hours,
to find out the DMV's closed due to toxic fumes spreading.

Noodles Are The Strings Of The Lord.
Once again, in the beginning of the earth, Catholics believe God created the world, the heavens, and all of existence in six days, and finally resting for the seventh day, where all believers gather to praise his gift of creation. The story carries on though stories, revealing conflict between the first few humans, (for example, the story of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden and the first temptation of man) in light of showing the correct morals and revealing the temptation of the devil and all alike. Through hardship and conflict, the Lord tests the faith of their followers, even in a flawed earth. And in the afterlife, depending on how we lived our life, we can choose between living in eternal paradise in the clouds of Heaven, or suffer in the flames of hell. These stories and books written by a handful of writers/followers of the Lord would later become the Old Testament in the Bible.
For the Pastafarians, the beginning of creation was somewhat similar. It starts with the creation of the universe by an invisible and undetectable Flying Spaghetti Monster. On the first day, He separated the water from the heavens and on the second, he created land, as he could not tread water for long and grew tired of flying. With land, he also created a volcano spewing beer, and the satisfied Flying Spaghetti Monster drank from the volcano and awoke on the third day hungover. The Monster's intoxication was the cause for a flawed Earth, and on this day, the Flying Spaghetti Monster spawned a little midget, which he later named Man. Man and an equally short woman lived happily in the Olive Garden of Eden. When we reach the end of our lives, the Monster promises a paradise in Heaven, which contains a beer volcano and a stripper factory. Hell is similar to the heaven, except that the beer is stale and the strippers have STDs. As a test of faith to all Pastafarians, the creation of evolution was planted by the Flying Spaghetti Monster. These stories are recorded in, “The Gospel of the Flying Spaghetti Monster.” Both the Bible and “The Gospel” can be bought at any bookstore for the right price, of course.
Like many religions, it has traditions, such as commandments, holidays, and ceremonies celebrating saints, martyrs, and most importantly angels, who inspire miracles; and on the Catholic Calendar, such as Lent, Pentecost, St. Patrick’s Day, Easter, and the most popular one is the birth of Christ, also known as, Christmas. In the Catholic Community, they live by the Ten Commandments, brought down from Mount Sinai by Moses, that are simple to understand and are abided by those who aren’t Catholic. At the house of their worship, they read from the Bible and similar traditions practiced since the time of Jesus Christ, the human form of the Lord. And at the end of every prayer read to thank the Lord above, they conclude it with ‘Amen.’
In the Pastafarianism world, it is very similar. Where Catholicism has saints and angels, Pastafarianism has pirates, as they are considered, “peace-loving explorers and spreaders of good will" who distributed candy to small children (Henderson, Open Letter). Due to the decreasing numbers of ‘good ol’, fun-loving pirates,’ the Flying Spaghetti Monster responded by increasing global temperatures, causing global warming everywhere (parodying the rule ‘correlation does not equal causation’). Proof of this relationship with the observation is that “many people dress up as pirates for Halloween, and the months following October 31 are generally cooler than those that precede it” (Henderson, Gospel). They also have a handful of holidays, such as “International Talk Like a Pirate Day” (which is actually on September 19) and a vaguely entitled, “Holiday.” Holiday does not take place on a specific date and there are no specific requirements for Holiday (which parodies everyone saying “Happy Holidays” in the clump of holidays, such as Christmas, Hanukkah and Kwanzaa). Like the Ten Commandments, they have the Eight "I'd Really Rather You Didn'ts," brought down from Mount Salsa by pirate Captain Mosey, which obviously parodies what most religions are actually doing, both intentionally and unintentionally. While there are no churches to celebrate His Noodly Goodness, as read in the Sixth “I Really Rather You Didn’ts,” they conclude each prayer with the word of Noodle, “R’ Amen.”
After many generations passing, and centuries go by with conflict and wars declared in the name of one’s religion, human nature doesn’t often change. Sometimes, it takes a joke to point out the irony in what is something sacred and cherished upon on human beliefs. While the nouns and the adjectives between both Catholicism and Pastafarianism are extremely different on how it is presented and written, the verbs, the actions, and the symbolism connects the two, and presents a façade of modern religion. While the world itself isn’t perfect, and that it holds many scattered ideas of its creation; we must remember is that, Religion was created as a guideline to live life at its fullest. Regardless, we must respect others, whoever they are or what they believe in, as it is not the religion that defines the person, it is the choices they make. “Only this and forever more, R’Amen.”

I'll Be Missing You, Mr. Salinger.
The guy who never offered to give an introduction;

Where you're going, there will be no phonies.

Children of History.
when everything has change
what can I do now?
when they won't come back to you.
i remembered my friends,
as i sat in the classroom.
they manage to go,
without a stop in the bathroom.
we knew so much,
but they all forgot
we left, in ten years,
yet everything is lost.
fallen for
what we once knew,
we can't make things
come back to reappear.
wristwatches and turntables
won't turn time back for you.
but we shall never forget
what we had to go though.
i once had it all
when my mind was electric.
using the correct use of soap
i guess i didn't expect it.
eyes so achromatic
words so automatic
sounds in quiescent
a smile so radiant
tremors shake the mind
schoolgirls make it right
more dead then alive
no pretty sights
riding through the years
on a train, fast as it goes
making though the roaring sea
on a ship just floating down.
i'd take it back for a day
just for you to know
that its love
that pull the heart to its grave.

Mindless Banter, session 5.
as i glance and stride where the waves take me.
i only ponder, and where thoughts go out to yonder.
I feel the clouds missing where rain should be.
nevertheless, the crack and the whip comes only closer
and the skin on the face of everyone becomes so unique,
i only wonder to see them all.
so far the ones i remember become all too familiar,
the ones i can't forget,
as i only wish to see them again.
water is always transparent,
but the soul remains too thick to see.
i only wonder to see them all.
as mine dances away in the bluest of the sea.
