Hoobledoo

"Do you believe what I say now?"


2/3 of this years graduating class from North Hunterdon High School are complete and fucking morons.

I really couldn't care which way my tassel goes.

I hear demos of many songs I already know, and for the most part I think the demos are better. They are supposedly refining the sound, but I always find myself leaning towards the more raw and emotional sound that a demo gives. They also have parts that hit the cutting room floor that shouldn't have,demos are like a directors cut version of your favorite song.

Sleep: The cheap, fun way to waste your time.

My dreams taunt me.

Cheese tastes so good....on a burned piece of lamb.

Dominick "The Dominator" Hasek is going to sign with a new team. He may be old, but he is still one of the most flexable human beings I have ever seen. If I were any team I would sign him. But then again, I am not any team.

I really didn't talk too much about prom in here....and that will continue.

The people around you shape the way you act, the way you talk, they influence everything.I find myself saying things and doing things that I never thought I would do, and I pick it up from the people closest to me.

Just one song can turn a struggling band into a multi-platinum one. The trick is making that one song.

"Start to mass produce, for a chance to ignore"


Skyscraper....holy shit was it peaceful and nauseating at the same time. Inner peace in my mind, utter confusion in my stomach....but totally worth it. The whole day was totally worth it, and I was glad to be surrounded by the people I was with. A chance to meet some new faces, but just a little too late. Either way, a great time.

Depressing songs totally kick the asses of happy ones.

I want to fuck around with a synthasizer one day, I think it would be incredibly fun.

Graduation practice tommorrow, should be a.....great time. 7:30 to god only knows when. Knowing our class, it will take at least 17 hours to prepare for this thing. When the fart noises and random profanitites die down, maybe we can get some shit done.

This is a pretty obvious statement but arrogance pisses me off.

Arrogance and the Olsen Twins actually....

Franz Ferdinand...good stuff, check it out.

I got a b- on my astronomy final, yet I know nothing at all leaving the class.....does it reflect on the class, the final, or the ability for people to bullshit.

If you are 18, you should be allowed to rent whatever damn movies you want at anytime. You know who I am talking about, and it is utter bullshit.

Mother Fucker is a little too overused....let's try to say Mother Fornicator instead.

I love the rain, the thunder and the lightning. I do not like hail.

"Bright and early for the daily races, going nowhere, going nowhere"


One more test, one more day....just have to live through one more day, one more test.

I'll be honest, I regret so many things in life, but the things I regret the most are the things I never did. Ok, so it is cliched, but it is true. You never end up feeling as bad if you actually go out and do something bold, something ballsy. Leaving it all out in the open is a scary thing to do, but it's rewards can be so fufilling. You don't feel as empty when you fail if you know that you didn't give up a fucking inch, didn't back down, and tried your damndest.

I had a dream that had Vin Diesel in it.....WHAT THE HELL DOES THAT MEAN?

If there is no NHL season next year I think I will end up watching the WHA and be bored and angry. Fuck the owners.

I would like to take this moment to say that Atkins is fucking up the way I eat, so please return to me my white bread, potatoes and starch. Thank You.

Self image is always distorted.

Am I the only one who hates the sound of their own voice? I really can't stand the way I sound on tape...singing or talking. I think everyone hates their own voice though, let me know with your thoughts.

The glass is not half full or half empty, it is slowly falling over and will eventually spill everywhere.

Do you believe in an afterlife? Let me know with your opinion.

Everyone will die, it is just a matter of coming to terms with it. Right now I am an "invincible teeanger", so I can't really imagine it....but someday I will.

"I'm staring at the asphalt wondering what's buried underneath"


I once again am writing in this thing, for how long...who knows. The posts lately have been sporatic at best, but I have been having a hard time thinking of things to say. That is not to say I haven't been thinking, but I don't have the same urge to write in an online journal as much...and when I do, I never somehow get the computer( thank my brother for that one).

I will be honest when I say that I have had a hard time lately writing lyrics. I can usually crank out idea after idea for a song....but my style has changed. I find myself becoming *gasp* more mellow and introspective in my lyrics. It is emotionally draining now to dig up old feelings or memories that would be good fodder for song. I will say this though, when I do end up writing a song....it is better than anything I have written before. So have I switched quantity for quality? I sure hope so.

I refuse to write the obligatory "end of the year, I will miss this place" entry. Everyone has the same thing to say, we have all heard it before...we will hear it again.Everyone knows how I feel at this point, and yes...I will miss all of you. I just don't want to slam it down everyone's throats.

I wonder sometimes....then again sometimes I don't.

Is everyone really that complacant that they refuse to stand up for what they really believe? It has been a very longtime since I have heard an original viewpoint on a topic of importance. Life is not black and white, the gray area is what seperates those who think for themselves and those who do not. I am guilty of this trespass as much as anyone else, I am too much of a coward to truly speak my mind. I plan to change that though, hopefully.

Here it is folks, Brian Keefe's super amazing song of the day: Earth, Wind and Fire- September

Thanks for looking at the rambling.
