done and done

i have completed my first semester of my junior year of college. now i shall sleep, read books i wanna read, and watch countless movies.

it's late...can't sleep

i had coffee after 11 pm tonight. first mistake. i then tried to go to bed around 11:45. second mistake. i obviously could not sleep. soon my thoughts crept out of nowhere to torment me. i had some stupid song stuck in my head for the longest time and could not get it out. i have since forgotten it. praise 'im. i then began thinking about ultimate frisbee playoffs this weekend. throwing a frisbee around with friends is one of my favorite things to do.
im currently uploading an album onto my music blog. check it out here http://vanridesandhightides.blogspot.com/. it's by a currently defunct band called northstar. i jammed this album a lot in high school and it is still a favorite of mine. im currently listening to a song called "all i need" by a small band called Radiohead. my goodness this song puts me in the sleepy mood every time without fail. i guess thats why i chose to listen to it now because i no longer want to be conscience. as a matter of fact, this whole album is putting me to sleep. last thoughts...check out and follow me and my roommates twitter. http://www.twitter.com/thesweetlayer
also follow me personally on twitter

A.A. Bondy - Oh the Vampire

With a vampire's kiss
I got a vampire's heart
Now I don't roll out of bed til after dark

See my teeth so sharp?
And my blood so still
You know I could drink the world and never get my fill

And when I come, I will come on like a dream
With the crimson moon shining down upon my devil's ring

You see it ain't my fault
That I am this way
Just a crying in my box for misty day

Lord what I would give
For just one drop of red
Now the dew is on the grass and I am late for bed

And when I come, I will come on like a dream
With the crimson moon shining down upon my devil's ring

First Train Home

What matters you, doesn't matter to me.
What matters to me, doesn't matter to you.
What matters to you, doesn't matter to them.
What matters to them, doesn't change anything.
