i just realised i’ve been sick for the past three weeks straight, and well, that has kinda sucked.

also i’m thinking seriously about going to the big day out for the first time ever, because of sleater-kinney, m.i.a., wolf and cub and the greenhornes. i guess i could endure the uncomfortableness, the heat and the kids a bit just for that.

• recieving a letter and subflex cds in the mail
• peanut butter chocolate anything. mostly reese’s and m&ms; the peanut butter jumbo kit kat is only passable
• finally getting my rumble fish soundtrack lp, three months via sea and quarantine ripping into the package. under the picture of stewart copeland (i didn’t realise how good looking he was then), he is called “the rhythmatist”. there are also three pens in the pocket of his white shirt just waiting to leak.
• the silversun pickups are kinda alright.
• hana yori dango the japanese adaptation of the manga for sure. meteor garden was the taiwanese version that came first, spawning that awful f4 boyband. it was excruciating to watch, even though everyone was watching it. somehow the characters seemed to be thinking with their hair follicles, and every action came out pained and nonsensical. in the japanese version, makino has real guts and likes to punch boys, which is exactly what i’m looking for.
• boy meets boy by david levithan
• i discovered strawberry switchblade after i kept hearing about some dvd coming out soon. yoshikawa hinano does a cover of since yesterday in japanese. no wonder they like em - they’re a little like wink, but western, bigger hair, more makeup, dark and light at the same time.
