i can't blog for shit.

Today was the day that I spontaneously decided to take the bus to school today. It was fairly warm outside, probably around 30 or so, and I had soon realized that I had gotten up too early. After a while, a flock of birds flew overhead, and it was amazing.

The New Hampshire climate had been too cold for too long for birds to have not migrated south yet, but somehow these birds had managed for the entire winter so far.

It was the most beautiful thing I've seen related to nature, at least in my stay in New Hampshire, and perhaps I'm only saying that out of exaggerated memory, induced by sleep deprivation, but for some reason I love it so much.

I also found out that I have a copy of The Catcher and the Rye. I was totally sure that I did not own that book, otherwise I would have brought it to school when we were assigned to read it last year for English. I think I might read it again after Catch 22, A Clockwork Orange, and Julius Ceasar.

To be honest, I really don't love Catch-22. It's a fine book, but I have already started reading A Clockwork Orange, and it's a lot more stimulating than Catch-22. The language is a lot simpler, but still remains intelligent.

Also, my new favorite Pixies album is Come On Pilgrim. I realized this when I heard some kind of reprisal of the beginning riff of "Caribou" in the chorus of "Levitate Me." The album has a distinct style to it, and that's what I appreciate about it the best. However, it's not as definitive as Surfer Rosa.

The most beautiful thing I've ever witnessed in nature is when I was walking through a forest, and the sky started pissing itself like mad. Like, baseball sized raindrops everywhere, my favourite type of weather, and I was just stuck there, huddled up in the forest.
Obviously I nearly caught pneumonia when I got home but whatever

Catch-22 is the greatest book ever to book man
Also, you'll like Catcher in the Rye. It's like the angstiest thing ever :3

You and Logan both. I think it's a fine record, but it doesn't capture the simultaneous quirkiness and musical brilliance the Pixies have to offer.
IMO, Doolittle was the most definitive, Come on Pilgrim was the most raw, Surfer was the best, Bossanova was the black sheep, and Trompe was the departure.

I've read Catcher in the Rye. I actually read in last year when I went through my I HATE PRIVATE SCHOOLS BECAUSE I GOT KICKED OUT OF ONE period, so when he gets kicked out of his school, I jizzed in the middle of class.

>>Catch-22 is the greatest book ever to book man
implying I am a man. colon eff.

I think Bossanova is tied with Surfer Rosa for me, but maybe that's because I've listened to them the most out of all of them.

Doolittle isn't my favorite anymore, actually it's my least favorite, but I still love it.

I still have to listen to Trompe.

also that thing with the birds is the most beautiful thing that happened to you nature wise?

i watched a bear chase a small deer and when the deer crossed a river on a narrow passage it stupidly didnt continue running
the bear jumped in the rivver and came out on the other end and fucking crocodile'd it

serisouly it was SOOOOOOOOOOO fucking epic, and that's just off the top of the head not to mention i just live in missouri can you imagine the shit that happens in places like colorado

Catcher in the Rye Rule 34...

Holden and the children in the rye field?
Holden and Phoebe?
Holden and Stradlater?
Ackley and Stradlater?

I'm stumped.

ChickenGod 2010-02-11 20:44:03

ACKLEY.

I had totally forgotten about him until just now. Oh god, his acne-d face would be great for a skullfuck.

TheSilverGuitar 2010-02-12 17:20:08

Same with Orr and the chaplain from Catch-22
