unattractive singers

i saw les savy fav tonight at the great american. they were awesome. they are such good performers and entertainers…probably making the top ten for me. however…the lead singer is quite unattractive..which for me, makes the band more attractive. i’m so sick of seeing bands with good looking singers or front persons. How is this possible??? I’m sure there are tons of entertaining and more watch-worthy people than the typically attracive specimens…and entertainment/personality/originality/uniqueness is key!!!..right??? well, it should be. take for instance, the killers. how is that brandon flowers sooooo good looking but his band mates are just average dudes. and the fact that he can be an “eh” singer could stilll catapult his band to be a huge hit??!? simple..his attractiveness to the masses. fuck the masses..theyre nothing but dumb shit. they should be goo goo and gaa gaa -ing over bands like les savy fav..but that will never happen..ever.

different note altogether…im grateful for my older brother. strong/brave figures in your life mean a lot..and they certainly don’t come around too often.

tired but not

i’m thinking of a five letter word…
on another note, i saw forgetting sarah marshall tonight. it was a sleeper i must say… although there was a lot more penis than boobage..which is a nice change of pace.
it’s going to be may again. that was fast! the only may memory i have is trying out for the tennis team way back in the day..cinco de mayo, to be exact.  i made the team without exhibiting any knowledge of the sport..haha…what a trip.
now i’m trying to think of specific june memories…but i’m afraid i’m failing. …yeah, nope.

i bet i’ll forget what that 5 lettered word i was thinking about is the next time i read this.

hooters

when i was watching america’s best dance crew on mtv.com…yes, i watched that…there were several ads where this college aged girl was looking for a job. she wanted a “start to a wonderful career” and a job that “utilized her assets in communication and dealing with people on a daily basis.”  first ,she was dressed in the typical business casual fit, with glasses of course, being interviewed by an older unattractive lady.  she discovers she doesn’t have the qualities needed for whatever job she was applying for and then(!)…miraculously, she finds the job she was searching for all along!!!  hooters!  nevermind the uncomfortable stuffy business suit…she turned them in for the orange digs and pantyhose.

i’m glad working at hooters was never an option for me. hahahahahhaha. :p

narrow paths

sometimes i like to wonder what would have happened if i took one of my ta’s advice to drop out of a general education university and to go to a specialized school (for art and design).  i wonder what my parents would have said or if they would have still paid for my education.  i wonder if i’d have more direction… or what if i had pursued a different career path all together…like chemistry…

that same t.a. also told me how much he suffered post undergrad as a “starving artist” and how he didn’t even have enough money to buy a pack of cigarettes.  prior to this, he did not know what living was till he experienced extreme poverty. well..that just sounds super romanticized and cliche. when i first heard this, it didn’t bother me sooo much..not because i didnt think it was kind of silly, ’cause i did; but because he believed it so sincerely (and it’s different hearing it straight from the source versus recalling it in my mind). i guess some people really do need to experience the extremes in order to “know what living is” but i’d like to think i can appreciate things without experiencing a, more or less, self-inflicted poverty…or do i? heh.

(don’t think i’m at a complete loss here…i’m not…just a little..and that’s okay with me…i have my whole life to figure things out!)
