The Ashlee Simpson show was on last night, and I was half listening to it while I was on the computer. She was whining about being nervous for her first show. The VERY FIRST TIME she was on stage. I looked over my shoulder and saw that she was on a substantial size stage, with quite a large audience. I think thats bullshit. She didn't earn a damn thing. She's famous because her sister is Jessica. Granted I don't know the half of what its like to be a musician, but I've experienced enough and I've read enough to know that it takes musicians years of hard work and gigs at crappy old bars and exactly what Brendan Fraser said in Airheads "Playing your hearts out for 15 minutes and the only people there are the other bands and their girlfriends" I know exactly what thats like. She doesn't deserve the success and fame that has been granted to her. I mean, I could understand if her and her band were spectacular or something. Yeah, they're competant musicians, but it was nothing special that caught my ear, they sound like many other bands out there. It just pisses me off how unfair things are sometimes. She hasn't worked long and hard enough to be the status that she's at now. Spoiled brat.

I'm in love with the thought
(and the swimming notion)
that you'll be drowning in the land of romance;
without my love, I might add.
May I get married,
and may their lives be Mary.

i really am prey for the female...
ok. yeah. i went to see mary this morning. not really morning. she picked me up at 12. noon. i got in the car, and she was sitting there, her hair got really long, down to midback, still beautiful, you know? the kind of hair that looks like it's jsut been permed? light brown, glows in the sunlight? like that. she was smiling, and i couldn't help myself, i started smiling, and we hugged, and then we cried, and we started kissing one another's cheeks and necks and eyes. she ran her hands through my hair, poked me in the cheek for my braces and laughed. "just like you always wanted," she said. just like i always wanted. isn't that a funny thing to say? we went out to starbucks. it's nice on friday mornings, there's hardly anyone there. she ordered me a tall american black with whipped cream. the way i drank it for 2 years. i had to turn it down. i got a bottle of orange juice instead. she didn't say anything. just smiled. we talked a lot about what we'd been doing lately. she asked me if i was seeing anyone. i told her all about blag. it was so easy, and she completely understood. i asked her if she was seeing anyone. and she started telling me about her ex, who'd broken up with her to go to college. she started smoking by then, offerred me one, and i shook my head and smiled. she raised her eyebrows. "no way, timmie quit smoking? oh the world is flat." she told me a lot about her ex. and i listened. then we went out for a ride. next thing i know, we're at her house. walking in there was like walking into a time machine. nothing changed. we went to her basement and hung around her gym (literally). she's still in such great shape. we played music, she laughed when i showed her what little i learned to play on the guitar. then we watched a movie. about adam. great movie. then we kissed. a lot. slowly. we missed one another. so we took our time. and we caught up. we didn't do anything else. just kissed. and before i knew it, it was 10 20 and i had to go home. so she drove me home. and we kissed again before i got out of the car. she's going to college, she told me on the way home. art school in france. i always hated france. she leaves on the 28th. she wanted to see me. i told you.... yeah. seeing her, the moment i laid eyes on her in the car was like falling in love with her all over again. no, it wasn't like falling in love with her, it was falling in love with her. she told me she was proud of me for making my life better. my gut really hurts right now. i'm gonna miss her so much. 10 months wasted. i don't know if i shouldn't see her again, if it would make it easier when she leaves or if i should see her as much as i can because it can't get harder than this.

the humping lesbian club?
so we went out to the hunting and equestrian club. swimming. you'd think it would be easy. it wasn't. we were fine in the big half-olympic sized lap pool, co-ed. but that's not it. we need to go to the women's pool, cuz a bunch of geezees were on the way in. so we ask the nice egyptian gentlemen where the women's pool is. he has a hard time with ms jackie, and when i finally step up he scolds me for not coming up to him earlier. *shrug* so i became the official arabic translator for the family. we drove around. a lot. we asked a lot of people for directions. a lot. we went around in circles. a lot. finally, after getting caught and paying 2KD when i had already gotten in for free, we found it. a skanky little thing full of old kuwaiti women who did not like us, not one bit. "americans" they whispered, "who else would have blue hair and wear bikinis? and the mother lets her children do this? no shame...."
they came up to me eagerly. "YOU'RE kuwaiti aren't you?" i was scared
i jumped off a diving board for the first time! yay! fun! i also learned how to swim, bla bla bla. andy's a jock. just thought i should let yall know. seriously. she swims. fast. and pretty, like. *scratches head* i always thought she was exaggerating but dude.... yeah.
we come home, want to go to applebee's but to save time, andy n i showered TOGETHER! AT THE SAME TIME! NAKEDDDD! ok no, we were wearing bathing suits but IMAGINE! we were also singing "these are not my pants" and so on. funny.
applebee's. i was threatened not to eat anyone's food. *pout*. meanies.....
and THEN

Wackiness: 60/100
Rationality: 36/100
Constructiveness: 64/100
Leadership: 86/100
You are a WECL--Wacky Emotional Constructive Leader. This makes you a people's advocate. You are passionate about your causes, with a good heart and good endeavors. Your personal fire is contagious, and others wish they could be as dedicated to their beliefs as you are.
Your dedication may cause you to miss the boat on life's more slight and trivial activities. You will feel no loss when skipping some inane mixer, but it can be frustrating to others to whom such things are important. While you find it difficult to see other points of view, it may be useful to act as if you do, and play along once in a while.
In any event, you have buckets of charisma and a natural skill for making people open up. Your greatest asset is an ability to make progress while keeping the peace.

:: Music: interpol - stella was a diver and she's always down
i'm wearing a skirt!
ok, so we're in starbucks and there's 2 guys alternately playing sax, guitar, bass and african drums. real nice. oh! before we left the house we were all "that song is so annoying, but i think of it everytime anyone says it's hot" and we were talking about that song, it's getting hot in here, so take off all your clothes. well guess what the guy played on his guitar? YES!
well we had to borrow charis and couches from people because as soon as i sat in andy's lap she dropped the orange juice cap thing down the back of my shirt and i later had to go to the bathroom to retreive it from my underwear. then we found a big empty area full of couches on our way back from the toilets and migrated there. so these guys come in, and as they're walking up the stairs, one of them's hocking a loogie and i go "manly men are coming up the stairs!" so the guys all stop and turn to look at us. it was me, small, loud, dressed like a guy in an oversized taz shirt, khaki straight legs and wannabe-converse. it was jessye, obviously american, with her pink underside hair and flowy light skirt and converse, it was sarah who was rather normal and quiet, and andy with the hair. need i say more?
well as they walk on, looking for places to sit, one of them, the shortest of them all, long curly hair, board shorts, REALLY REALLY REALLY nice ass, cute face.... he starts dancing, only it's not your expected dancing. he just walks by, wiggles his cute little but as if independent from the rest of his body and moves on. we're all in silence. then i trun around and ask sarah "did you see that?" and she goes "i saw" jessye whips her head around and goes "oh my God!" and andy, the only who didn't see it goes "what what what?" so we tell her, and we notice the guy and his friends STILL have no place to sit. so i go "excuse me! EXCUSE ME!" and he and his mates turn around and i go, "can you do that again, please?" he blushes, gets a little embarassed, and mummbles something, then turns around and does it again. we applaud and whoot. so he and his friends sit across from us, on comfy couches. well we have a good time, laugh, hit on sarah (andy gets all defensive of her little sister)
jessye: sarah, i love you!
andy: 1-stop hitting on my little sister. 2-stop hitting on YOUR COUSIN!
good times. finally, we leave. right befoer we get up, this guy is standing behind andy, just looking at the back of her head. ("he's trying to decide if it's blue or green." "guess her real hair colour! it's like a gameshow!") she notices, turns around and goes "hello" and the guy goes "hello. how're you?" and she goes "i'm good," and he's all "good." and walks away. when we're leaving he walks next to me down the stairs and goes "hello" and i respond "hello" and he goes "where're you from?" and i go "around here" and he's all "here? really?!" and i nod and smile then he goes "how old are you?" and i go "not old enough" and he's all "why?" and i say "cuz i'm still young, i go to school" and he goes "where do you go?" and i go "home" and he says "oh ok. i'll see you later" and i say "ok" and he (surprised) "really? i'll see you later?" and i go "yeah, see ya" and walk away. funnyyyyy.
it gets better.
we're in fanar and the hot guy with the hot ass comes up to us and goes "we just wanted to know your names" and andy goes "well that's too bad" and he goes "why?" and she goes "cuz we don't want you to know our names" and he goes why not? and i step in since andy's about to blush which wouldn't helo any i go "ok, SHE'S my girlfriend. so you can't hit on her when i'm here." and the guy turns to me, as if noticing i'm there for the first time and goes "well why not?" and i go "because she's MINE." and he goes "oh.... ok.." and walks away. andy calls at his back "if you were a girl i'd hit on you" and someone goes "you have great hair" and we go our separate ways. sarah was distrubed. "why do you always tell people that you're a lesbian?" "because it's FUN and it WORKS." *sigh* good times. the rest of the evening was pretty much boring.

today is the greatest...
how do you know when all the al-dookhis and all the aldaghis bought new books?
ToTo's the only one eating.
-yours truly
ok, i've been here a week. *boob face* i know. i didn't think i'd been here that long either. didn't realize time was going by so fast. we've created a poster of all our summer inside jokes so far. there's a lot, and we're just getting started. krinkle...
yeah. besides eating andy out of house n home, i've also been spending insanely large amounts of money. i somehow managed to spend a 20 in a week. krankle.
jess: "i'm dying.."
andy: "shut up, you're not dying."
jess: *keels over*
andy: "....shit..... that's not cool. oh that's really krankle."
i'm done reading the da vinci code. *giggle* yay. good book. i highly recommend it. although i have to admit, it pisses me off in some places. drags on too long. and then there's the hoo-hah business... *says no more*
we've been taking a lot of pictures. go see andy's angelfire for more of those. we went book shopping, bought a lot of books. there's this used book store and the family went nuts. i sat in a corner and did math puzzles from a big book. it was awesome. *pushes glasses up on nose*. by the time we left they'd spent a total of 45KD on books. that's about $135. yeah... they also bought kuwaiti t shirts. *giggle* foreignOrs. what else have we been doing these past couple of days?
too many inside jokes. mhmm. and i've been learning to glonk better with the aid of jessye. she taught me how to work on my strumming. awesome. i can now play short stories, smoke on water, come as you are, the intro to newborn (not very well), mad world and you don't see me. awesome. i feel so proud. since i've gotten the idea of strumming i've been experimenting with different glonking sounds. *cheesy grin* yay! i rock! laurence said this would happen and now he has a picture of me as his icon. *shifts weight* i still find it strange.
oh! one more thing. jessye and i have decidde to create a livejournal community where would could set to work on our great novels. i know i'l forget it later, so it's
www.livejournal.com/communities/destroy_silence
i don't like what i've written so far, but i'll see where the story takes me and figure something out from there. ok that's enough out of me. i'm alive, i'm well, having a great time, thank you and goodnight.
blessed be
