retro lj, retro lj, retro lj

my social group in high school all had livejournals. I kept one from 9th grade probably until last year, when I realized I didn't want to remember a single thing that had happened to me in that span of time. Anyway, I do remember having plenty of melodramatic angsty entries during this dark time period (a lot of which I have suppressed.) So I present to you a channeling of one of the more traumatic events I am able to recall:

MAY 22 2005

MUSIC: TORI AMOOOOS

Dear LJ

today was SO BAD I can only think of ONE REASON to stay alive and that is to see what happens to me WHEN HIGH SCHOOL IS OVER. the guinea pig is not even talking to me. I don't get it. what is texting, by the way? why do you all do it?

I was in biology today- so bad- we were watching this stupid movie about chickens and then all of a sudden I was like my face was realllllly itchy. so I was all like WTF and excuse myself to Mr. ______ to go to the bathroom.

then the next thing I know is there is a lot of blood streaming from my nose! OMG I FELT LIKE CARRIE! then I kept sneezing and sneezing and before I knew it, the bathroom was all covered in MY, BLOOD. what a great day to wear a white hoodie, too!

THEN THESE CHEERLEADERS CAME IN. I could hear them screaming as I hid in the stall!

3 New Lana Songs Come Out From Upcoming Album "Blue Banisters"

Not even that far off from "Chemtrails Over The Country Club" being released this past March, Lana Del Rey dropped three new singles off her upcoming project, "Blue Banisters." They include the title track, "Text Book," and "Wildflower Wildfire." All three songs seem to merge the worlds of "COCC" with "Norman Fucking Rockwell," specifically Lana's mouthful of a track "Hope is a Dangerous Thing for a Woman Like Me To Have But I Have It." They also seem uncharacteristically more confessional than most of Lana's catalog to date, specifically "Wildflower Wildfire," which alludes to a conflict with her mother. She even starts the track with "Here's the deal," readying to show more of her backstory than she ever has in her decade-plus-long career. The three songs are gorgeous - especially "Text Book," which has a haunting quality to it (she mentions "Black Lives Matter" i

Tusse releases French Language Version of "Voices"

In case you missed Eurovision this past weekend - and if you're an American, you likely did - there were some truly talented acts among those competing for this year's prestigious title. There were some pretty boring acts, and there were only a few of truly strange contestants this time around (bummer).  Sweden's act Tusse was pretty talented; his joyful and uplifting track "Voices" was actually one of the few that seemed rather memorable to me. Turns out he's releasing it in French - which makes sense, as Tusse is Kongo-Kinshasa born. Tusse is enormously popular in Sweden from what I can tell, having won both Melodifestivalen (Sweden's precursor to Eurovision) and Swedish Idol. He's a talented guy, and I'm sure we're just seeing the start of what is bound to be a long and prolific career.   (you might not be able to watch this outside of Sweden so, see below) The French version of "Voices" is available for streaming here .  Also, whi

"Round the Bend" - Zoon (Beck cover)

My favorite album of Beck's has long been "Sea Change," for approximately the 20 or so years it's been out. I would probably regard it as one of my personal favorite records, for its wistfulness and its beauty. When I heard about Zoon (aka Zoongide’ewin) - the musical project of Daniel Monkman - covering the "Sea Change" track "Round the Bend," I was somewhat skeptical simply because the album holds such a place in my heart. Now, prior to hearing about this cover, I wasn't so familiar with the work of Zoon. And now, I've got to say, in my best Owen Wilson - Wow.  Apparently we both hold the 2003 Beck album in high esteem. Said Daniel about "Sea Change," "After my first listen I was so moved and at the time I was going through a pretty bad break up and this album helped me process my depression. Throughout my time away from music I’d always have a copy beside me; it kept inspiring me that I could try any kind of music style. I
