true or false:

cats are intellectually superior to dogs.

"i'd like to introduce you to your new vice principal, ms. george, who is replacing ms. green because ms. green moved on to become the principal of that other school on the other side of town; which is really lame because it's not this school, its another school, a school that's not as good as this school but i won't mention its name coughxaviercough. booo! ...why isn't anyone booing?"

haha, its good to be back in school!

i was going, 'ROFL' and 'oh god there is no hope for humanity' as i read the post.

-FUCK traveling

-FUCK airplanes

-FUCK airports, too

-contact lenses start to feel like plastic shards of death after the first ten hours

-the ad in the banner above this text box thing is in arabic.

-the first thing you feel when you exit the airport is HEAT.

-the second thing you feel is the DUST.

-everything is covered in dust. everything. no exceptions.

-the heat here is not like the heat anywhere else. it presses against you in a really unpleasant way.

-the best feeling after a whole day of airplanes/airports is changing into flannel pajama pants.

-the second best feeling after a whole day of airplanes/airports is taking your contacts off.

-the third best feeling is lying down in a bed. even if the blanket and pillows are covered in dust.

-if you thought watching anime with english dubs was bad, try listening to the arabic voice acting.

-I'M TIRED

-airplane food is not edible.

-when i'm done writing this, i'm gonna get a falafel sandwich. a REAL falafel sandwich, not those lies they sell us in north america.

-after i eat my sandwich, i am going to sleep for forty six hours.

-also, if you're travelling to the middle east your best friend is likely to call you to make sure you got there okay.

-arabs here do know basic english, so for gods sake, if your ringtone is the chorus to yellow bus by brokENCYDE, change it before it rings.

i haven't updated my journal since july. isn't that sad?

ANYWAYS~ pretty much everyone who watches me knows that i love billy talent A LOT. and that i was obsessed with ben and wanted to marry him (i'm over that now. kinda.) even though i can't pronounce his last name. and that i'm incredibly proud of the fact that they're from my hometown. and that ben used to work for my favorite radio station.

and that i pretty much love everything about that band. (YES I'M ONE OF 'THOSE' CREEPY FANS : D)

so, i was gonna buy billy talent iii right when it came out. but then something came up, and another thing came up, and then more stuff came up, so i bought it today and am currently listening to it and i feel really lame because really, who hasn't heard it yet?

i was going to do a song-by-song review but then i realized that i liked every single song on the record and that my review would go like...

devil on my shoulder: AMAZING.
rusted from the rain: really amazing!
saint veronika: REALLY GOOD : D

so, i decided to do something else! since i'm such a giving person, i'm going to share my favorite lyrics from every song with you! : D (plus i really need to update my journal. the other one is SO STALE AND CRUSTY D

SO HERE WE GO:

devil on my shoulder:
i dug my hole so deep, i'm gonna drown in my mistakes
can't even sell my soul, cause it ain't worth shit to take

rusted from the rain:
dissect me till my blood runs down into the drain
my bitter heart is pumping oil into my veins
i'm nothing but a tin man, don't feel any pain
i don't feel any pain.

saint veronika:
and while the angels sleep, all of the devils are awake
waiting to steal your love, right outside the heaven's gate
and all the sacred hearts, can't numb the feeling from the pain
cause when the drugs don't work, you're gonna curse his holy name

tears into wine:
the gun is loaded when the glass is full
down the hatch, and the trigger's pulled
off the wagon, and back onto the stool
i know that when i stare into your eyes
i can see all the years of lies
ghosts and demons you never exorcised

white sparrows:
my heart just stopped when i was told
doctor, doctor on the phone
said my love was never coming home

pocketful of dreams:
she sold her dreams for security
to a man that now she hardly ever sees
with a cold martini in her hand she don't mind, don't mind

the dead can't testify:
let the rain fall down, let it fall to the ground
let the rain fall down to the ground
and the birds don't sing, no they don't make a sound
when you're six feet underground

diamond on a landmine:
when dancing on thin ice before
frozen from the winter's cold
and if it were to crack below
i'd never let you go

turn your back:
i hope some day when i'm dead and gone
we learn to write everything that's wrong
with loving hands turn sick to strong
our time will tell if life goes on

sudden movements:
i'm the guardian of angles, and they'll get what they deserve
so lock your children in the basement, keep a rifle by the door
don't be afraid of my intentions
cause i'm more afraid of yours

definition of destiny:
we had passion, we had goals
why is life so set in stone? it doesn't have to be


and now two observations about this album!

1) the band seems to be obsessed with devils/angels/heaven/church
seriously, they're mentioned is some way on every song except for three of them.

2) in the lyrics booklet, there's this part: 'when your six feet underground.' and it should be you're, not your. and that REALLY ANNOYS ME.

anyways, that is all. : D
