Rap, reggae, "soul"...I really don't know how to define it,
But I can't stand to listen to that genre of music for more than 10 seconds without freaking out, complaining, shutting it off, or leaving the room.
Unless it's covered by an amazing band.
Currently Listening To: I Wanna Love You - The Maine (Akon cover)
I think it's kind of funny that my favorite line of that song is:
I love the way you shake that ass up in those jeans.

Boys, raise your glasses...girls shake those...
Show us off to all your friends,
We're the trophy boys from here to if and when,
We break and break your dreams of,
Keeping us a secret.
We're the back-pocket believers,
we're the locals who went postal,
call it treason while you can.
I'm just a face for every picture,
a smile for your scrap-books,
and a story to be told, and told, but I'm
but I'm loving every second
so commemorate this hour,
as the last I spend regretting what I have.
We're the party, you're the people,
and this is how we,
this is how we do.
I love these lyrics with a passion.
We're the trophy boys from here to if and when,

We're the party, you're the people,
and this is how we,
this is how we do.
I love these lyrics with a passion.
She died, and he died, and they both died.
I just realized that someone always dies in a Nicholas Sparks book.
In A Walk to Remember, Jamie dies.
In The Last Song, Ronnie's dad dies.
In Dear John, John's dad dies.
And I'm pretty sure that both Noah and Ally die at the end of The Notebook.
Does anybody else see a pattern?

It's better to burn out than to fade away.
To Boddah:
Speaking from the tongue of an experienced simpleton who obviously would rather be an emasculated, infantile complain-ee. This note should be pretty easy to understand.
All the warnings from the punk rock 101 courses over the years, since my first introduction to the, shall we say, ethics involved with independence and the embracement of your community has proven to be very true. I haven't felt the excitement of listening to as well as creating music along with reading and writing for too many years now. I feel guity beyond words about these things.
For example when we're back stage and the lights go out and the manic roar of the crowds begins., it doesn't affect me the way in which it did for Freddie Mercury, who seemed to love, relish in the the love and adoration from the crowd which is something I totally admire and envy. The fact is, I can't fool you, any one of you. It simply isn't fair to you or me. The worst crime I can think of would be to rip people off by faking it and pretending as if I'm having 100% fun. Sometimes I feel as if I should have a punch-in time clock before I walk out on stage. I've tried everything within my power to appreciate it (and I do,God, believe me I do, but it's not enough). I appreciate the fact that I and we have affected and entertained a lot of people. It must be one of those narcissists who only appreciate things when they're gone. I'm too sensitive. I need to be slightly numb in order to regain the enthusiasms I once had as a child.
On our last 3 tours, I've had a much better appreciation for all the people I've known personally, and as fans of our music, but I still can't get over the frustration, the guilt and empathy I have for everyone. There's good in all of us and I think I simply love people too much, so much that it makes me feel too fucking sad. The sad little, sensitive, unappreciative, Pisces, Jesus man. Why don't you just enjoy it? I don't know!
I have a goddess of a wife who sweats ambition and empathy and a daughter who reminds me too much of what i used to be, full of love and joy, kissing every person she meets because everyone is good and will do her no harm. And that terrifies me to the point to where I can barely function. I can't stand the thought of Frances becoming the miserable, self-destructive, death rocker that I've become.
I have it good, very good, and I'm grateful, but since the age of seven, I've become hateful towards all humans in general. Only because it seems so easy for people to get along that have empathy. Only because I love and feel sorry for people too much I guess.
Thank you all from the pit of my burning, nauseous stomach for your letters and concern during the past years. I'm too much of an erratic, moody baby! I don't have the passion anymore, and so remember, it's better to burn out than to fade away.
Peace, love, empathy.
Kurt Cobain
Frances and Courtney, I'll be at your alter.
Please keep going Courtney, for Frances.
For her life, which will be so much happier without me.
I LOVE YOU, I LOVE YOU!

reflections of you
perceptions of me.

what do you find?
that i am like you
and you are like i.

we drink and we fight and we love just because.
Windows down, pedal to the sneakers.
Turn up the volume, blow up the speakers!
Best clothes on; goin' down on fire.
Turn the lights off, turn the music higher.
I don't think anyone truly understands how much I want to see 3OH!3 live. It's so stupid that they're not playing in New York on their Streets of Gold tour.
If I were to be a singer, which is so not happening because I'm next to tone deaf, I would definitly hit up the most populous city in the United States!
But no. You think you're cooler than me - get it? It's a pun on Mike Posner, who's ALSO not playing in New York on their next tour, which is with Stephen fucking Jerzak. Ah! I love that man.
Anyways, I had a long day. I woke up at 7 in the morning and I got home at around 9 at night. Don't even ask. I'm so tired. I'm sleeping.
-L
P.S. My "Harmony" CD & flower pot came in the mail today! I expected the flower pot to be bigger. I can't wait to plant my wildflower seeds (even though the sheet is bigger than the actual pot).

hope it gives you hell.
Now where's your picket fence love?
And where's that shiny car?
And did it ever get you far?
You never seemed so tense love.
I've never seen you fall so hard.
Do you know where you are?
I highly recommend seeing All-American Rejects live. They were amazing at Warped Tour. Now I want to see them again.
You talk like you're famous; you're shameless.
S: Blake Lively and Megan Fox are so pretty!
L: Yeah, I know. (I mean, if I was lesbo or a guy, I'd totally think Megan's hot, and I mean that in a non-creepy way. I'm totally straight.) I was actually thinking of getting a tattoo this morning because I was watching TV and Megan was on.
S: What would you get?
L: Lyrics. Good ones, of course.
S: Manage me, I'm a mess!
L: No! I should totally get a tramp stamp that says "shameless".
I've spent the last five hours talking about All Time Low and raping each other's walls on Facebook with quotations from "atlsecrets.tumblr.com". If you've never been on that site before, I highly recommend you go. Now.
Take me, show me,
The corners of your empty room,
The trouble we could get into,
Just fake it for me.
Disregard the footsteps,
And we'll never tell a soul.

We can conjure up something rad.
Before I start, I just want to point out that I might get mushy in this first post. It's the foundation of the future of my blog, and you know what they say! If the foundation is bad, then the house is just fucked up...or something like that.
So the first thing I'm going to do on my blog is talk about Harmony, Never Shout Never's new album that comes out today! That's just a random fact about me; I'm a diehard NSN fan. And Christofer Drew Ingle? I'd hop right on that!
I've listened to all the songs, and I have to say that my favorite song (as of now) is First Dance. It's just so damn cute. Just watch the YouTube video, I swear it's worth it. Plus, I'm a sucker for those shoobie do do doos. (;
I also picked this line from the song as the title because it was kind of cheesy. Do you get it? I'm going to explain anyways, so it doesn't really matter. So if you (my readers) continue to read, comment, and etc. this blog, I will continue writing, and together, we can conjure up something rad. Okay, so it's not that funny now that I've explained it. But I still like it.
Wow, I'm done with my first entry. And I haven't cried yet, hah! *beast* So I hope this didn't suck so much, and keep reading, 'cause together "we can conjure up something rad!"
