The Taste of Ink.

So I always have those moments when I realize how much I miss Arizona.

My friends tell me I cling too much to feelings of nostalgia... but I can't help it.

So I find myself browsing YouTube and ITunes for songs/vids that remind me of high school.



Taking Back Sunday. Dashboard Confessional. The Used. Panic! @ the Disco. Halifax. Anberlin. Creed. Trina. Lil Wayne. Pitbull. (And countless others.)

Taco Bell. Dairy Queen. Authentic Mexican Restaurants.

Basketball. Student Council. Musicals. Laying Out at the Pool.

Homecomings. Proms. Assemblies.

Coconut Rum and Sprite. In-School Suspension (o_O).

MySpace. LiveJournal. Photobucket.

Dr. Pepper.... O, how I miss thee.

Sigh, high school was the ish. I can't wait to go back and visit this summer. It's been far too long.

Je m'appelle....

Damn. So it's been a bit.

Here's a quick update:

1. Classes are blah.
2. Boston is F-ing COLD
3. Since my last blog, I'm already halfway done with French 1!
4. I dunno what I'm doing with my post-college life, but I'm excited to start it.
5. I'm soooooooo sooooooo sooooooo broke.

But yeh, that's pretty much the rundown. Life is pretty crazy right now: French and Dance are killing me. In the month of January, on top of surviving the normal stressed of life, I have to both learn an entire course worth of French, and organize a full on dance production with acts, hosts, special guests, etc.

Thus that's why I've been a slow blogger lately. But I'm determined not to quit.



I've decided living in NYC after college wouldn't be too bad. After a weekend with the two bestbuds in Manhattan, and from previous experiences visiting there, I have to say I like the vibe of NYC. Plus, all the things I love to do... dance, go out, live beyond my financial means, etc... would be right at my fingertips.

....ps. I bought the sweater. Haha. I had to, even though I couldn't afford it.

Anyway. I've decided I must make some sacrifices next semester, to dig myself out this financial hole.

I hate sacrifices.
I hate filing taxes.
I love tax returns. :)

(Why don't they teach you how to do this in school?)

Why is everything about money?

Though, I guess... I can't imagine it any other way. I def don't want to go back to pre-historic days....

Unless it's like the Flintstones. :)




Haha. PS. If you haven't seen the movie Juno... do so now.

'Cus I was Romeo.... you were the Scarlet Letter..."

So... I'm obsessed with this song.... (but I hate the video...)



I also don't really like her too much... I feel like she's way to cookie cutter... 'give a pretty girl a guitar, and make her famous'.... though whatever... I guess I'm jealous of people without amazing voices getting to live the dream: Rihanna, Chris Brown, Britney.... Though it's ironic, cus I like overplay all of their songs....

Anyway... I'm back in Boston... blah... it's COLD.

...someone should buy me this to stay warm:

It's $139... which is overpriced... but it used to be $350 before it went on Clearance... sigh... I tried it on.. and fell in love.

I think I have to get it. o_0

On a lighter note, I start taking French tomorrow. I'm somewhat nervous. I was the same way when I first started Japanese.

For those who don't know: If I accomplish nothing else in life, I plan to be quadrilingual one day. English, Spanish, Japanese, and French. :)

Jason Scott.... A sick, quadrilingual dancer..... would be amazing.

So people have been asking me about this whole 'blogging' thing... and why bother doing it. And I dunno... I guess my response would be... "Why not?".... I want to remember my life. Blogging is like my own personal memoir, left behind for the world to understand who, what, where, and why I am... well... me?

So that's why I do it. That's the entire motivation behind blogging. That.. and to help me write my book one day... on life. lol.

"Marry me juliet, you'll never have to be alone... I love you and that's all I really know..."

Sigh.

Music is amazing.

[A New Year]... and a fresh start...

So it's the year two thousand nine..... and i decided to return to blogging. 0_0

I don't know really where this will end up... or who will read it... or even how long it'll last. (Given that I'm probably way to busy for one of these.) But here goes nothing.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Haha.. like the emo pic?.. me too.

So yeh... it's New Year's Day... already. 2008 flew by. I definitely didn't have an eventful New Year this year. I wasn't in the mood. I did talk to a couple of potential love interests: one was someone I had a crush on in high school. It's funny how the tides have turned. The other someone I met online. haha... I'm a loser. I know.

In either case... distance is the greatest issue. Thus, I don't foresee anything happening.

In other news, I go back up to Boston tomorrow morning. Home was nice, but I've realized how independent I've become:

1. In the past 4 months, I took over paying for everything: school, my car, food, everything.
2. I NEVER ask for money. I guess I never really did. But now, it's not offered to me either.
3. I spent more on my mom for Christmas, than she did on me.... which was weird.

I've also decided, I'm a work-a-holic:

I've spent most of break working at Abercrombie.... I think I'm going to quit.

My goal is to take the three jobs down to one next semester. So school won't dominate me.

Anyway... so I guess the entire point of this blog entry was to maintain progress on my New Year's Resolutions:

1. to get in shape.
2. to go on a date.
3. to go to church.


.....though... if you know anything about me.. and my lack of freetime... all of these seem like a lost cause. but it's worth a try.

sigh.

happy new year!
check back again later.
