Lie to Me

Things that made me happy today:

stars my favourite book amy millan torquil campbell yeah yeah yeahs maps patrick wolf's red hair the magic position edward larrikin jonny lang lie to me peter frampton it all comes down to you crowded house don't dream it's over chris isaak wicked game keziah's 'Hi i miss you!!'

I filched my dad's music from his thumbdrive... I now have A LOT of new music.

Yesterday my brother was watching track and field events on TV and he was commenting on how scary the runners' thighs were and I said did you notice how triangular some of them are, especially swimmers, and he said Michael Phelps looks like a guardian wolf (on wolfteam) which cracked me up so hard. (Okay I can't find a good picture but it's true.)

Armed with coffee and bio notes and I have to study before I fall asleep again.

Diddly dum

The internet is full of amazing people and things.

This is awesome, by the way. (Please watch it.) Festival fun!

I actually had a lot more to say... But that was yesterday and blogger wasn't cooperating. And now I am studying. (Yes I know! So rare.)

OMG BLOGGER WORKS AGAIN

I heart Owen Pallett. (Happy 30th birthday!)

Will someone throw me a birthday party featuring thirty bands for my thirtieth birthday? It would be so awesomely cool. Though probably more fun in theory than in practice...

I have Dark Was The Night!!!! More hearts liek srsly.

And randomly, a quote from the Dark Was The Night album website:

2 tickets to see Dark Was The Night Live at Radio City on May 3. (No nose bleeds…Orchestra seats. These seats are “Matt Berninger might possibly step on you” great.)

...Matt Berninger! (He's the singer for The National, scroll down to listen.)

Had study session of sorts with Jasmine and Gail and umm I did not really study but Gail obviously did. But it was awesome to hang out with them again. And Hamsty I can't believe you like the smell of markers/glue/petrol!!

'If I were an enzyme I'd be a DNA helicase so I could unzip your genes.'

I read this yesterday, BEST PICKUP LINE EVER. It's so bio geek.

Let's needlessly burn lots of fuel

Fisichella took pole in Belgium! And now (race ongoing), Raikkonen is first and Fisichella is second. Which is really weird, Fisichella's never placed this well before (I think). And there is a distinct lack of familiar names in the first few positions, Jenson Button and Hamilton are out. And google is failing to tell me why. Interesting season, this.

Kimi. :D

Edit: This is like, the most interesting race of the season? And there have been a few. I am actually sitting in front of the TV to watch it, usually I just come down at intervals to check the placings.

And, I like Kimi but I kind of want Fisichella to win! A little. It's the underdog thing. Force India outdoing Ferrari! The... F1 people(?) would love it. And hahaha what's with the sudden fighting spirit? Everyone seems to be aggressive on track today.

It was a slippery slippery slippery slope

New favourite album: Thom Yorke's The Eraser

Not-so-new favourite song: Slow Show by The National



I should learn how to put audio only... But the video's nice.

Love Matt Berninger's voice.

Edit: Also? I think Christopher Bear has to be one of the best names ever.
