give 'em hell son [18 Jul 2005|04:43pm]
[ mood | hopeful ]

home again, first time since christmas
jo ann and I fell asleep on the floor last night watching The Dead Zone.
I have a stiff back.
It feels great to be home but I am glad I don't live here.
Went to Cinti con kristopher.
they all think my name is Kristine.
It's amazing spending time with a family that is happy.
Mine isn't, especially not during large family gatherings.
They all get drunk and bicker.

Anyway, I will be back in nola in about a week, probably jobless.
we'll see.

I want to make a mixtape right now.

feeling without [14 Jun 2005|03:56pm]
[ mood | loved ]

I haven't updated in forever and I'm really happy.
I guess I sorta used updating on this thing as a crutch to complain and or babble about private things that should have stayed private but that somehow "became known!"
anyway,
working at slims still and now making coffee at the rue.
Louie is coming to visit at the end of July.
I think I am going to Cinncinatti on the 17th to visit Chuck's family and then go up to stay with my step mom for a week and a half.
It'll be nice to get away from NOLA for awhile.
I need a break from the heat and everything else.
and I don't think I"ll be updating on this for awhile.

*please be kind*

death to me [04 May 2005|01:08pm]
[ mood | worried ]

my life is taking a drastic downslide every second.
if I am acting weird, don't notice you, ignore you, am drunk all the time, forget stuff, or start crying at weird intervals,
please forgive me.

sort of on that note, but not really:

Kentucky Derby Party
Saturday afternoon, 4:00pm
mint juleps and food
my place.


if you want to come, gimme a holla so I have enough for everyone.
we can get tipsy and watch horses.
woohoo.
it will be a nice study break.

these days I know how to watch what I say though I still do things my own way [28 Apr 2005|10:32am]
[ mood | accomplished ]

well, today is my last day of classes, not counting my internship meeting tomorrow.
last class of about 17 years straight of school.
it's weird.
I have a ten page paper due for my 11 o'clock class and it's not done.
so i'm skipping my painting class to write it.
i figure she hates me, i have a skip day left, and i'm going to use it goddamn it.
this is going to come back to bite me, i know it.
whatever.

now i'm biking to the rue to finish my paper.
i slept a couple hours last night. the light was on the whole time. and i kept waking up to work on my paper.
it was traumatic.
but it's a beautiful day, my step mom sent me an amazing outfit for graduation and a card that made me cry, LA sent me my state refund and well.....

I'm Done.
thats sort of it.

alright, maybe my last posting alluding to the hullaballoo was in poor taste.
I don't believe there is a rivalry between publications.
I don't believe in censoship.
If you think about what is going on here, it's pretty horrible, and I think if they catch the person, something drastic needs to be done.
But I think it's Tulane, and nothing will be done.
on that note.
The Vox is on the Hullabballoooosss side.
We, meaning I, just still think the situation is funny.

Sexov ?? [25 Apr 2005|12:21am]
[ mood | cold ]

I just sent my resume to four movies that are going to be shooting in Nola this summer. crossin my fingers.
and I need to look into where I can take script supervision classes.
Cause yes. I have decided that's what I want to do with the rest of my life. After 3 and 3/4 years at Tulane, I have decided that I want to do something completly unrelated to everything I have been doing. I don't know if that's depressing or uplifting.

And, also, I'm not really going to write about it, but; lately, I've been getting extremely worked up over people expressing differing opinions to mine. Especially when I can't make them understand what I want them too. Today, I almost had a mini break down over stupid politics and people expressing their personal opinions. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...........

oh!
and, incase you haven't heard or read the update on the WTUL website...
someone stole the remaining 1,000 Voxes that have yet to be distributed.
There is a $100 reward for anyone who has any info. Vox@wtul.fm

oh.
and i've given up sugar.
may be best if you avoid me for a week or three.

I shall the radiowaves pull your eyes toward heaven [21 Apr 2005|07:55pm]
[ mood | crappy ]

this is my first update in a few weeks.

I'm really happy right now.
But not at all.
So much shit keeps happening.
My dad is miserable and just plain awful
My art teacher is miserable and just plain a bitch
My best friend is miserable and not talking to me.
And I have a tummy ache.

So......I'm sitting in my messy room listening to Hank Williams and the Drifting Cowboys.
I think I shall clean it up and then go harass my mexican friend Sarah.
I shall be back on the air tomorrow: Noon-two central.

this is hardcore.... [07 Apr 2005|03:18am]
[ mood | confused ]

today, i got up at 5:30, and went down to the Funky Butt for my first day on the set.
I got to be slate girl, or slate babe when i was good and slate bitch when i got in the way.
that means I was the one who held the slate in front of the camera and made the clap noise at the beginning of rolling film. then i had to hide so that I wasn't in the way.
it was so much fun.
and I learned how to work with the cameras, how to role cord, learned about camera appertures, lens, and how to push someone on a dolly while they are filming.

then I came home and crashed. and now it's 3am and I'm wide awake. I just painted in the studio for a few hours and before that hung with james at the rue for a couple.

now I think I'll work on a paper and do some reading.
maybe I'll just stay up till my 8am class.
I would be fine I think.

i missed the dance party tonight
that makes me sad.
:(
that was me, being sad.
now i'm going to be happy and listen to some Johnny Thunders.
woohoooooooooooooo

oh, and I'm crushing big time.

[ mood | refreshed ]

I have finished work for the day, showered, and am now sitting by my window with a nice warm breeze coming in and The Cure playing in the background.

today was a beautiful day.
and last night was amazing.
the buttons are terrific.

Lynn and I made it to Tip's in time to see the last song by Chuck and Greg's new band. Bailed on Chris George and a full beer to go pick up Jack to head to the Circular Bar.

amazing. the buttons....amazing.
so much fun.
drank with a professor, chilled with james, was offended by jack, saw pretty and abortion, rocked out with colby....and.....i'm sure alot more happened but I was having too much fun to process.

now it's study time and be real time.

we start filming on monday. i'm a location mangaer on wednesday and doing lights and sound on friday.
i'm so excited.

i have a huge......and i mean huge bruise on my thigh.
and my neck hurts.
i feel like I had an accident but don't remember one happeneing.

my time with anything I like is too short [27 Mar 2005|12:10am]
[ mood | devious ]

do you ever look back at something you have done and feel completely disguested with yourself?
but then realize that you don't actually feel disgusted but were only paying attention to the looks other people were giving you?
either way, i'm getting my act together.


At home depot today, one of the guys who works there totally said to me, "Hey, don't i know you? you look familiar."
and then we did one of those kind of awkward guessing games thing before we figured out that he has seen me at 80's night.
I don't know if that was the best part of buying stretcher boards. have to think a bit.

now i'm off to bed instead of going to Nick's or instead of returning from seeing Say Anything. (not the movie, cause I would so be there for that.)

SB '05 was tooooo short.
and so was the season of Firefly

lynn's going to get mad at me cause I'm updating and not walking to her house [19 Mar 2005|07:27pm]
[ mood | excited ]

I don't do this often, in fact I haven't done this in a few months.
But i'm going to shamelessly promote A Gun Called Tension.
It is a terrific album. Go out and buy it.
Do it.

"You look uncomfortable"
"You're holding a beer."
"Uh....yeah...wha..."
"Well, you were pointing out the obvious so I joined in"

Someone recounted that to me the other day and I found it hilarious.

I love TUL marathon shows that have only four WTUL kids present, not couting the one guy working the merch booth.
Great turn out.
Telefon tel aviv.... amazing.
i wanted to stay longer but I have a midterm in the morning.
and they didn't start at 10 and end by 11. that whole thing was bullshit.
anyway,
i drove my smoking car to the quarter. I have an oil leak
it's great.
off to sleep getting up early.

new drama: when someone you know ignores you but all their other friends say hi to you.....

vox out tomorrow. dixie web fucked up our fonts. they called me to tell me.
i apologize for anything horrid they picked out.
