I realize that this makes me a complete and utter geek..

..but I am in love with Wizard Rock.
There. I said it.




If you're confused as to what Wizard Rock is, let me elaborate.
Wizard Rock is a fandom genre of "rock" music created by Harry Potter fanatics (shocker, I know) using the names of characters and things throughout the series as names for the ~bands. So you get names like "Harry and the Potters", "The Whomping Willows", "The Parsel Tongues", "The Remus Lupin", "Dobby and the House-elves" (lawl), etc. And as you would expect, they strictly sing about characters and events that are in the series.

"Teenage Werewolf" by The Remus Lupin (posted), is about the agonies that Remus Lupin (a.k.a Moony) experienced growing up as a werewolf at Hogwarts, in a society that was not very accepting of his kind - A prejudice against werewolves if you will. Once a month, during the full moon, he was sent away to The Shrieking Shack as a place for him to transform and at the same time not hurt anyone. While he is at Hogwarts, he becomes friends with James, Sirius, and Peter, who come to call themselves The Marauders. They ultimately find out about his werewolf secret and decide to become Animagus -the ability to transform into an animal- (werewolves aren't a danger to other animals), to accompany him during his transformation at The Shrieking Shack to keep him company and be there for him during his ~cycle.

But, I digress.

Point is, aside from the unarguable dorkiness of Wizard Rock, I think it is pretty darn cool.
I guess it just takes me back to a more simple time and happy time in my life, when the only thing that I cared about was when the next Harry Potter book was coming out. And then proceeding to cream myself when it actually did. :)

tell 'em that it's human nature


-I hate when peoples opinions and misconceptions about something which I know much about, clouds my own judgement. no one should be able to sway your opinion about something that you believe in so easily.

tryna make ya understand you're on my radar.
hey baby, whether it's now or later..I got 'chuuu.."

never thought a facebook quiz would "sum me up" so well

Taqwa completed the quiz "What kind of mask do you wear?" with the result Pain.
Your mask is pain. For some reason or another you just can't seem to find a positive outlook on life. You get angry when people try to relate with how you feel, because you're convinced they won't understand. Deep down you know there should be a million reasons for people to want to get to know you, but you often find yourself closing yourself off from those around you. You have your select friends, but can't help but want something more. You find opening up difficult, but you do find your ways to let things out. You have your good days, but even through the good times, you feel like there is always going to be those feelings that don't sit right..

I went to see terminator for Christian Bale to be quite honest...

- Moms has been bugging me forever and ever about getting a pap smear. I've been dodging it for years...but it seems like this summer she is determined to force me to get one.
The reason that I've been dodging it so much is...I'm terrified :/ If you don't know what I'm talking about, I suggest you google it, because I'm definitely not explaining it...*shudders*.
I am like legit scared. Reminds me of some shit aliens do to human abductees in books and movies.

DO NOT WANT :"(

- I hate how I feel that I'm going to have to have kids sooner or later just because I don't know who else I am going to have to take care of me once I get old. I'm extra nice to my nephew and stuff now, so you know, he can remember my kindness~ once we both get old, and maybe that will trigger some emotional response. There is still no guarantee that he will give a shit about how nice I was. As there is no guarantee with your children. But I think you have a better chance with your own kids :/ eye dee kay.



- Amazing stuff. Real talk.

I wanna be like Van Wilder

Life depresses me.

On the way home, we were listening to something (on CNN, I think) and there were a few college graduates on the show, talking about how hard it is to find a job nowadays and what not. How people are getting degrees in journalism or whatever, and ending up working at staples :|
and that just got me thinking about how materialistic the whole thing is.

I mean, we go to school for four years, graduate, get a 9 - 5, and work for the rest of our lives, just so we can afford to buy a few pair of shoes, a new home theatre, pay a car note, or whatever else is is that we want. It's like people just work to buy things. you put in a good 35 years, then you retire. and by that time you are old as hell.

I don't know, but that whole scenario flashing through my head just made me feel...down.

Well. At least I have another good three years, I would say, before I graduate.
Things are looking bleak.

That's all.
These are my thoughts of the day..

Peace, love, and Miley Cyrus.
