then we try and name our babies, but forgot all the names that we used to know...

So I've been listning to me ol Arcade Fire cd today after watchin jussa lil bit of Nightmare Before Christmas... and by a little bit I do mean that I meant to only watch the first 10 minutes to allow myself to reminese back to the day when I LOVED that movie, then I just ended up watching the whole thing. WOO! that got me so much in the mood for the whole christmas season. Then, with listning to the Funeral cd (arcade fire), I am SO pumped for all christmasie things to come. I mean listen to this:

And if the snow burries my,

my neighborhood...

And if my parents are crying than I'll dig a tunnel

from my window to yours!

You climb out your chimney and meet me in the middle of the town.

Then, with no one else around we let our hair grow long

and forget all we used to know

and our skin grows thicker from living out in the snow!

babay babay. I love me some of that. Sadly, it's taking them forever to release their next CD... I guess they got distracted by all the fun in the sun in LA (which, oddly, is where their new HUGE record lable is located). Hopefully, it's only going to take until next year because it's another masterpiece.

I feel a little bit like there's so much going on in my life right now but none of it can be expressed in words... I could go on about what I did this weekend, but I choose not to. Instead, I will leave you with


peace in the middle east,

Mitchell

smells like the death of the last great cause...

but you and I we been through that, that is not our case. give my face to the back of your head, loyal in your shaaadow, yeah, yeah, yeah!

Excellent. New update time. I wish I could get to this everyday, truly. Unfortunately, I'd rather be procrastinating doing my homework and this than simply blogging and ignoring my homework. However, things are pilling up behind me rather quickly. Though, for now, I'd like to talk about grad write-ups... the little devils.

Why the hell do we do them? It's one of my greatest displeasures in life. Why can I not put something entirely rediculous without being judged? What is so holy and untouchable about the grad write up? I don't know, but I did not spend 13 years in school all to build up to the 450 characters next to a fucking picture of my in the back of the yearbook. Firstly, I'm estimating that about fifteen people will be reading any given write-up and taking paying attention to it. Now, do friendships constantly have to be written in stone? If I don't include everyone of my friend's name's next to my photo, it means that they meant nothing to me all through high school - no. I'm not accepting an academy award, I'm filling up blank space in a year book. If it even dawns upon me to read what I wrote in that small space in my yearbook 20 years from now, I owe every single person with a sappy melow-dramatic write-up a billion dollars.

However, to contradict myself; I do appreciate, for those who do see this as a serious and holy thing, to be mentioned in one. Though, if everyone were to put something silly I guarentee that people would read every single person's write-up. Not to mention, it would be a lot more fun, less stressful and we'd all simply get along much better.

now THAT's entertainment!

BAM! All up in yo face face, like mace!

Now let's see, what have been up to as of late. Well friday was entertaining. I was so excited all day because of cours Marie Antoinette! I just love that girl. You know the question that people ask you "if you could have dinner with one person from history?"... well, she would likely be mine. Screw Einstein or Jesus.

So let's see. I got home from school friday and played the waiting game for Leah to come pick us up. Though, us turned into me, seeing as Susan bailed on the movie. That's OK though, I roll with the punches. So, after a long-ish wait, Leah, Joanna, Erin and Arno showed up. Clearly, Erin have Leah the wrong directions to Millidgeville, it happens. Adventure ensued.

Why Arno would laugh everytime a dog came into the movie? ... We will never know.

The movie was in general amazing. I had a few problems with it at first. Mostly the fact that it left out most of the ricule a viciousness Marie Antoinette had to endure and replaced it with flashy costumes and a sweet soundtrack. Then I came to a realization, the entire movie was basically like flipping through Marie Antoinette's diary while listning to an amazing mix tape. Likely, in a teenage girl's diary it's mostly includes the boring day to day activities, IE. shopping, the paties, boys and whatnot. Generally, there wouldn't be a whole lot of talk about politics and such. In that sense, the movie made a lot of sense. It doesn't deserve the reviews it's getting, it's definately one of the best movies out this year.

Anyway, enough analyzing. After the movie Joanna received an alarming call from Paige. "There are a 1000 people at the dance, and all 1000 will be going to Leah's house after this". Hmm, interesting situation for Leag, I won't lie. So we got to Leah's and after some boredom occured, Joanna decides it would be a good idea to turn on the Sex & The City DVDs. This just goes to show that Arno has the theme song to the show on his cell phone. Not only that, but when Joanna left the room he was able to explain to me just what was going on in the show... don't judge.

The next morning I woke up to a message from Leah "Mitchell! Where the hell is my cell phone charger?! Kbye." I just accepted it and moved on with my day.

Last night was also pretty decent. Susan and I were rippin over the fact that we had no plans. Then Erin calls and asks if we wanna go to her house after she gets off work. Woo! So we did, and I of course visited Stephen and Joanna at Zellers, like I always do... well, I don't usually.. but still. I did get an X Men pin out of the whole thing. We then ended up going on some random party for like an hour. THEN JUMPED ON THE TRAMP!!!

And now I'm just getting home from work listning to an old school Death From Above 1979 Cd and loving life.

hellogoodbye,
Mitchell

you mine what you die for

DIAMONDS BA DA BA DA DA

Weekend? I guess. Not so much of an action packed weekend this time. Friday was kinda a bust, it was raining, so all outdoor plans were canceled. Therefor, festivities would be moved indoors... indoors to the Saint John Sea Dogs hockey game. Bleh, it would make sense that the night that I call in sick to allow for some fun to happen, the only fun is at the hockey game! I mean honestly, I seldom see a friend at the hockey game for me to talk to. Then, the night that I am not able to work or go to the game, it turns out that that's the new hot spot to be. Oh well, I guess I could wait till saturday to have some fun.... apparently not though. Saturday was also a bust. I slept in and missed my chance to go apple picking. Then everybody already seems to be out and about laughing and having fun, while Sara Beverige and I try and go to the movies. That didn't so much work out either. Finally, Saturday night I did end up going to see Employee of the Month with a ceratain couple of people. Not such a great movie though... not really what you expect. Then again, it's just what you expect from a movie with Jessica Simpson in it.

So, friday I went to guidance with my english class to talk about after high school. Kind of depressing, I won't lie. I really can't figure out what realistiv plans are and what they aren't. It seems that the only thing that's not frowned upon in going to UNBSJ and taking arts. In a way though - as depressing as deciding what you'll be doing with your futur is - it's rather exciting. People say that one of the best things in life is not knowing what you'll be doing next... and I certainly don't. I just don't understand why, in elementary school you can decide what you want to be when you grow up and be capable to sticking with that plan for most of your life. Then, when you're older, you start acting childish and change your life plans it seems atleast once a week.

In other news, JA has started. Ugh?
It kind of looks like I have a very good chance of being president this year, although, for the first time, I don't really want it. I honestly don't even want to be there at all. I don't know for sure if I am capable of the resposiblity. "One of my greatest displeasures would be to let everybody down..." that's Marie Antoinette from the movie comming out on friday lol. But, it is true. I have a feeling that I would let people down, and just end up stressing myself out. Though, on the plus side, JA is on the few things that I've been able to do quite well in. That being noticed, there is a good chance that I will get scholarships from it. And usually, it's only the presidents who get those awards. So, we'll see what happens.

all my friends are skeletons, the beat the rythm with their bones

another thaksgiving dinner come and gone. may I say that thanksgiving is one holiday I do not get. I do not look forward to it or appreciate it. here's why.

1. I dislike spending prolonged periods of time with my family. I just feel like a three year old listning in on their conversations, I mean, the things they talk about are absurd. they gossip about the most random people that I do not even know... new names pop up every time. this time was a little different, instead of just being confused by all the randome gossip I was pretty annoyed by it. I feel like I am so much more mature than any of them, and it's frustrating. so basically at dinner, or whenever family comes to visit, I can never really partake in conversation.

2. I can't stand kids. I can't really explain what it is that I don't like, but I will make an attempt. I just find it depressing to be around them. like, I just start remebering what it was like to be that age and how naiive and stupid I was. it takes such a long time to grow up, truly. and I think that I'm just so in love with the age that I'm at right now that I never want to go back to an age that I've already experienced. if I had to go back to being 5 years old, realizing slowly time goes at that age and how long it takes to actually grow up... I would... not be happy. plus, their annoying to play with and they touch my shit.

3. My least favorite type of food is homecooked food. it's not fun to cook food, especially when it never really tastes that good. like honestly, it's over rated.

have a lovely-ass day,
Mitchell

PS. I'm going to get Joanna to post the videos of Night Train on youtube so that I may post them here.

ask me that one more time and you're DEAD

long time to postie-wostie...

it's been a good week or so though. night train was the bomb diggy last night. a lot of laughter and fun, as usual, with susan and I.

haha after some boredom ensued, Joanna, Tsunami and I went and started filming some videos for youtube. no doubt, I will be posting those on here. they're pretty halarious.

so thanksgiving is this weekend, and I'm just thankful that I havn't done anything compeltely humiliating yet this year. everything is going rather well.. a little too well.



goodbye children of the world, you are the future!
Mitchell

oops

accidentally deleted every post from before september... yeah, that really sucks...

here's some Lisa Nova

has a good home, Canada-di-do-di-da

ok so I'm watching TV this afternoon and I realized something: I am still hearing about Hurricane Katrina several times a day! I truly do care about the unfortunate people who lost their homes and belongings, I truly do. But what the hell?! This was over a year ago and there have been other, more serious disasters since. I'm not saying that I don't care, I'm saying that I care about other things more.

Sure, the victims of Katrina lost a lot and a couple thousand died... but wait! What about that tsunami that killed hundreds of thousands? I'd like to concentrate on them for a mement, please. Afterall they are the ones who truly lost a lot. They've lost real things like... their lives! So yeah, how about the hundreds of thousands of children who were killed in the eathquake in India not too long ago. They have nothing now, and had nothing before!

People tend to care about what they are told to care about. For example, everybody is appauled by the Rwanadan genocide. Once the movie was made everybody cared! I won't lie, I had no clue it happened until the movie was out. But wait... what about that genocide that's happening right now?! You know, the one in Darfur that has killed 500 000 over a time span ove 3 years. I just don't understand why we all care about something that has already happen when something extremelly similar is going on right now (and has been for almost 4 years)!

I'm just saying that sometimes people only care about what they're told to care about, but don't bother to care when it matters.

what a strange day

I have the strangest feeling today. I got out of bed today feeling so frustrated that I wasn't still asleep... and now I just feel... ick... I can't really explain it. I don't know, it just seems like I'm in huge trouble about something... but I'm not.. I dunno.

and now I have to get ready to go to friggen work... I'm in no mood at all. after work I have a crap load of homework to do... I'm just not having this. I just feel like I want to sleep through the whole day.

anyway, I'm gonna try and post about the better part of my weekend later tonight.

Mitchell

don't think twice, it's alright

my As You Like it audition went well. it could have been better for sure, but I usually don't do as well as I did on auditions. call backs are on monday, so I'll see how things play out.

school is getting pretty flippin hard, I have a test on trig identities tomorrow and there is no brian beckett in sight to help me... sooo we'll see how things go. damn mr crooked shank can't teach me shit.

THE OFFICE starts tonight!!! I'm so excited everybody MUST WATCH... it's the only good show on tv... well.. that and frightenstein on the space channel weekdays at 7

oh yes, and tomorrow I'm gonna buy the new EMILY HAINES solo album. here is the first single off of it.. this video is set in a Zellers, and I love it! PLUS the song is great!



and I plan on getting the Final Fantasy CD. he's really amazing if you havn't heard of him. he's the newest polaris prize winner.



That song above is reaaally worth a listen. Owen Pallett is one of Canada's most talented young musicians, if you don't believe me than believe the Polaris Prize judges

rinin pertie,
Mitchell
