LIFE HAS OFFICIALLY PEAKED
I’m never doing homework or anything else ever again.
I was never that guy who played games on Facebook…farmville, mafia, whatever. I never thought I’d be that person.

“They’re self-centered assholes and missed the bigger picture,” says Murphy?
Nooo, Ryan Murphy, you’re missing the bigger picture, because contrary to what you may think, you don’t own the music industry. Get over yourself.

The Social Mediums are Quiet Right Now

Let’s enjoy the solitude while we’ve got it, shall we?

“I think…that I would rather recollect a life mis-spent on fragile things...”
– I’m finally starting Fragile Things, a collection of ‘short fictions and wonders’ by Neil Gaiman.
The above quote starts out the book’s introduction, sourced from a dream he had. The fact alone that he dreamed something, comprehended it, and remembered it is pretty awesome,...

Aaron Sorkin Has a Pilot for HBO →
Read the article, ya’ll!!!
It sorta sounds like a combination of Sports Night, The West Wing and Studio 60, but that’s not at all an issue.
Plus, for the first time, he’s got HBO on his back.
If I were better at gifs, I’d have a crazy awesome party one right here.

In Which I'm an Idiot
I walked to two different Borders in the snow to buy the new Decemberists album only to come back to my room to upload it to my iPod so I can then walk in the snow to get my new glasses fitted. Womp One.
I could have bought a digital version online for half the price, or pirated it like everyone else in the world for free. Womp Two.
The worst thing is, I feel like Uncle Ben in Spider-Man:...
I Just Wanna Write My Bloody Screenplay
So round two with Hassan is a true treat, though it is interesting to see him in this new film-based, non-TV state. Blah blah blah here’s why I’m really writing this: I keep going to class expecting to come out knowing which of the three ideas I’ll be writing, and due to pitches of pretention taking too long, every class just puts me further and further away from pitching my own...

If Only Fonzie Still Did Tumblr
I finally get past the obstacles that were the blue line shutting down and sending out a bus, and the precise second I got up to the sixth floor, David Fonseca, my old roommate and dear friend came down to the same floor on the elevator next to mine.
How these things happen, I do not know.

Birthday Greatest Hits
20: Flying back to Boston
19: Explored Connecticut with Marion. A delicious chocolate lunch followed by talk of Clue by the Long Island Sound.
18: Finally with a senior license, I drove my friends to Eatnpark in the middle of the night due to a recently announced upcoming snow day.
17: As junior year was academically insane, it seemed only fitting that I had finals, but a nice breakfast...

At Times Like this, I Wish I Could TwitPic
Waking up a little after eight to run to the T station to search for my father’s fallen BlackBerry (found it!) served as a perfect last portrait of this town, as my final days run out.
Like always, it was gray and overcast, with a soft sun still rising in the distance, blurred by the sky around it. All the trees were sparse, the various shops far off stirring with quiet awakenings. The...

Away We Go—Dave Eggers & Vendela Vida
It’s interesting reading a screenplay written by two typical novelists, hence the less conventional character descriptions. Compare this to Inception, the last screenplay I read, in which EVERY character is described as “young,...
For My Own Sake:
TODAY: More Lost until Tron and one last Sphynx session with the Carmike kids.
TOMORROW: The King’s Speech, finish Lost, birthday dinner with familio.
SATURDAY: Pack for Boston, (slash for Europe break?) work at night.
SUNDAY: My birfday!….and a midday flight back home.
Yes, I’m more social with people like John Locke and Benjamin Linus than I seem to be with real...
