fred jones was worn out, from caring for his often.. screaming and crying wife, during the day...
he couldn't sleep at night for fear that she/ in a stupor from the drugs that didn't ease the pain/would set the house ablaze
with... a... cigarette...
10 brownie points to whoever can guess where this comes from.. its one of my favorite lines from a song... ¶ 4/30/2002 10:14:00 AM 0 comments

" i don't think you understand, I really am a dying man, in the basement hell fires fume, their sitting in my living room. I try and try to make my way, try and try to make my way, make my way!"
-The Mooney Suzuki
1) those ovaltine commercials must stop! If I hear "more ovaltine please!" I will go crazy. The sight of kids who seemed to have lost their ritalin and the manic ovaltine vendor is now proof that something with the world is definately wrong. The addition of the valium mother ovaltine commercial is also more salt in the wound. I know the value of purposeful bad acting in commercials, but I have this sick feeling that they were not going for that effect.
2) i fucked my toe up yesterday. do not ever try to move furniture when you are half asleep.
3)my avalanches CD came with a scratch....
Other than that, I should have a fine day. I will do some lab work, tidy my room up, and see "what time is it there?" later tonight.
I'm sorry for not providing you with any fine reading material lately. If you want to see good stuff, click on the links. I'm afraid I have no ability to write with any sense of coherence or with any value to good writing. ¶ 4/30/2002 06:55:00 AM 0 comments

all problem aside, friday is shaping up very well. Soon, I will go play some basketball and tonight there will be a party at my crib. So, any of you guys are in the area, give me an instant message, maybe I'll catch it. Just click on the AIM link on the upper right hand side of my little webthing.
See you all later.

"almost starved to death cause you had no money, sold your soul for blood and honey..oh yeah"
- the anniverary
I saw the cutest girl last night at MOJO's. Brown hair, brown eyes, cute, into rock music. I looked at her, she looked at me and smiled. Just like ben folds, I was shy, so I looked down, so down.
Really, I did. I had no courage to come up and talk to his girl, so I just sat there with my beer and stared at my shoestrings.
What is it about girls that I am so intimidated by? This sucks..... ¶ 4/26/2002 06:46:00 AM 0 comments

"i'm just happy you stuck around" TPR
Appleseed cast tonight at Mojo's
what did i buy (waste money) today?
Sony portable CD Am/Fm walkman.
Some nifty big ol headphones.
Batteries.
A few CD's :
"Your majesty" The Anniversary"
"Since I left you" The Avalanches
"Wanna Buy a Monkey?" Dan the Automator
"Under the influence" DJ SPOOKY that subliminal kid
"Get Ready" New Order
"Let it Come down" Spiritualized
"yankee hotel foxtrot" Wilco
I am a happy guy, this stuff should last me for quite a long time. Yeah yeah, some of you probably think I am behind the times in music, but when you have no money to buy music or any "indier than thou hipster" magazine, it takes me a while to discover new music. I am damn happy that I bought this stuff. So for all you music snobs out there, fuck off! I'm sorry I didn't buy these albums in vinyl to play for my jaded friends who work as waiters by day, trying to eek out a shitty career in performance art by night. I am a fucking college student, give me a break!
have a great day.. ¶ 4/25/2002 05:20:00 PM 0 comments

"Congratulations Alex, you have won the Excellence in Leadership at Mizzou Award for Multicultural Leadership"
Looks like the school is finally trying to kiss the ass of every minority student leader to avoid bad publicity. I guess they figure they can give some of us an award, give us a banquet, take some pictures and all of a sudden Mizzou is this great "place for diversity". Fuck that, they don't mention the budget cuts to our minority offices, they don't talk about how they turned a cold shoulder to our complaints of a racist school newspaper. Awards like this are all bullshit. I would rather not have this award and have Mizzou admit that they don't give a shit about us. Now, we can't complain if anything happens to us.
Yes, I am in a shitty mood, but, there was one good thing to come out of this award. I got a $300 gift certificate to the bookstore! I guess all this shit goes for something.
And, I am overall still a happy guy, because my internet service is finally back up!

I got up at 6:30 am with Carlo to get in line for parking permits. Thinking that we were early birds, we were dead wrong. THere must have been at least 400 kids in front of us, and it took us about an hour to turn our parking permit application in. Lets hope that we didn't get up that early for nothing.
Regardless of that, It was a good day. The weather was great, and even though I was stressed out, I turned my soc 299 paper in. Unluckily for me, the paper was due thursday, not today :(. I guess I will just have an easier thursday!
I also picked up Wood/Water today! Its such a great album, even better in CD format. I encourage all of you to pick a copy up.
Well, I should go and support AAA volleyball tonight.
Take care all
I'll try to become a introspective, pseudo intellectual writer for all of you that like that.
until that day comes,
appreciate mundanity in all its splendor. ¶ 4/23/2002 05:09:00 PM 0 comments

"what about the voice of Geddy Lee, how does he get so high?, I wonder If he speaks like an ordinary guy"
"I know him and he does"
"Then you're my fact checking cuz"
"stereo" ---pavement
why is it that out of town girls are the ones who respond to me better? why can't I usually muster up the courage to talk to local girls. It always seems that the ones nearest to me are the ones who intimidate me the most. It has always been easier for me to converse with older people while having a very hard time conversing with my peers. I have no clue how and why this trait developed and in some way, still exists.
Lets work on this together my friends.

I hate my mini blinds. They do its job for the most part, it keeps the sun out of my face while im typing away on my computer, but there's one damn spot where the blinds are broken and it lets this stream of light right into my face. Thats how I feel about myself lately. I seem to have everything down, or at least on my way to getting everything down, but there is always one aspect that seems broken, a spot where all my insecurities all my problems shine through. Is it school? girls? the future? I can't tell, but the hole is big enough for me to notice. Are my goals and expectations too high? My dad said to wait for your time to come, not to worry about being charming and successful. I think my dad has a great idea, he waited for three years after mum's death and he found a great woman he can be happy with. I can only wish my dad the best and I hope for as happy of a life as his.
Just like I need new mini blinds, I need a new outlook on life. The sun might still leak, but this time I won't mind it. ¶ 4/15/2002 06:33:00 AM 0 comments

"I'd hit on you if I wasn't dating anybody"
i was told this on friday. is that a good or bad sign?
If I was that cool, would she not care? Of course, I don't really like infidelity and I would hate to be cheated on.

oh yeah, my site got accepted into the Rice Bowl Journals. Its a collection of Asian and Asian American web journals, they highlight members etc..
so, click on the link at the right, and you'll be able to find much better and more sophisticated websites than my own.
maybe it will provide me something to work for.

I really need to start getting more sleep. Its not enought that I get 5 hours of sleep a night. I try to make it up with a nap, but I wake up tired as ever and end up wasting about 2 hours of the day.
I guess the main objective is to get to bed earlier and be more productive during the light-time hours.
Well, its friday and i guess I'm happy. I have a lot of stuff to be doing , so, I shouldn't really do anything this weekend.
Who am I kidding? I don't ever have anything to do. So, I was talking to my friend jason and we decided it should be our primary objective to get a date soon. Doesn't look like its going to happen anytime soon, but, we'll see if Alex could pull off his old smooth demeanor and get himself a date.
until then, i'll have my tv and my bed to attend to.
