for some reason, i really like "welcome to the black parade" by my chemical romance. reminds me of queen. i never really thought much of it until i saw that one commercial with those 2 guys singing it in the underground subway.

have u ever gotten this weird euphoria from interacting/watching something really calm? it's hard to describe. ive noticed it ever since i was a kid. it's literally a wave of good feeling coming over u. the most specific example i can think of is watching the interrogation scene in the original matrix, where agent smith first comes face to face w/neo in the room. his voice is really monotonic and strangely soothing, but to the point where i have this out-of-body experience of feel-goodness. another time i can remember experiencing it is during a quiet chess game.

i wonder if theres a term for that feeling. or maybe im just bipolar.

i had a weird dream last nite. i walked into a room, and my gf was laying on the bed. she sat up and told me shes found someone else, and is breaking up w/me. i kinda sputtered around a bit, then decided to leave. i look on the drawers and pick up my wallet, but i noticed that all my money was gone. so i ask her if she took my money. she says yes. i tell her thats all the money i have, and i need it back. then she says, ok ok ill write u a check for $15.. later, she txts me to remind me that we're broken up. thats when i wake up and check my phone, then i realized it was a dream.

why do ppl have these "baby on board" signs on their car, but then drive hella aggressively? i was driving on the freeway today, and this minivan with the sign cuts me off. its as if they use that sign as an excuse.

i hope i dont break anything while snowboarding this weekend.

what is more superficial? determining whether to date someone using a list of qualities that you're looking for, or simply by looks? for example, if u go out with someone who has the typical qualities of a good guy (good job, smart etc), but don't find him attractive, is that less superficial than going out with someone who u think is attractive, but doesn't have those qualities?

i'm not saying either one is wrong or right, but imo, first impressions are far more important than a criteria of desirable qualities. im sure we'd all hate to admit it, but looks is the first thing that draws u to the other person, and in most cases it is the determining factor in how far a date/relationship can go.

last nite, i finally took down the christmas tree that my bro put up. it was such a hassle. the tree itself was screwed to the base, which was also filled with water. needless to say, water spilled out and needles were everywhere. i got annoyed and just pulled the whole thing out by the trash cans next to the driveway.

i was listening to 105.3 morning show today, and they had a segment on american idol. i can't stand american idol, but even worse are the crappy ppl on american idol. the only person who has any sense on that show is simon. i heard simon say someone looked like a bushbaby and had a horrible voice, and i know he's right without even watching the show. seems like ppl are so pc that they cant give/take any real criticism.
