DOUBLE WHAMMY

So, Nightwish and Kamelot are playing the same show in Austin in October.

WELL EPICA IS PLAYING AT TREES ON NOVEMBER 19 :DDDD

I think I'm obligated to go see Epica since I've never seen them before and since I love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love them. Simone, sing for me! Oh man, I'm so excited. That's gonna be a fantastic show.

Well I went to the beach today and came home with a nasty sunburn. Tomorrow will be a good day to bum around and be lazy and MAYBE work on my passport. I read some of my Assassin's Creed book today and read probably a third of A Rose In The Woods last night. Man that book is so hard to get into at first because everyone but Eirene has the worst style of speaking, but once she becomes Lady Saxton, it gets easier. Since I've read it already, the major plot point is already burned into my mind and makes it less fun to read, but I'll eat that Stockholm Syndrome up until the last page. Google needs to put more romance novels on sale so I can get some new ones.

Bleh. I miss my bunny and my man and my bed and my big computer and my closet and my puppy and my bathroom.

S Bethlehem Pike

Is where my heart resides. Or it would, if I had enough money. I'm just going crazy for the beautiful castle houses on that street. After doing some research on the orphanage, I'd kill to visit it! But The little castle houses, oh God.

 

I'm just in loooooove.

xx A Swan Of White She Came To Me Marz

TO THE AIRPORT

 IN FOUR HOURSSSS. No sleep for this guy, and it's gonna be brutal. But that's okay, because I have Therion.



I could seriously listen to this performance for hourrrsss. There's just so many right things going on. The hair, the sound, the vocals, the EVERYTHING. Like this one, that I've had stuck in my head lately. Oh Candace, teach me how to sing like you.



I DON'T WANT TO GO TO PHILLY. WOOOO WOO MUSTARD. Can I just stay home with my art and bunny?

xx Sweet William On His Deathbead Lay Marz

Handel's Lament

Was the name of a piece I performed for my solo in 8th grade. I remember the tune vividly, especially the crescendo up to that D, or maybe it was even an E, that I could never reach. I know when I did get it, my private tutor would congratulate me. It's funny, looking back, the only thing that kept me from progressing on horn was that I never had the confidence to blow enough to get past the MIDDLE C. Middle C. The C on the staff. Jesus, that held me back, just because I couldn't get up high enough. And then everyone else is hittin' that E like it's nothing. Lack of confidence is what kept me from moving forward. But maybe it's better than I dropped horn, cause that one choice changed my high school life completely.

But anyways, the piece. Apparently it's not just a piece he wrote called Lament, but from a piece called Lascia Ch'Io Pianga, which is from his opera Rinaldo. Jesus, I must have spent an hour this morning listening to arias and operas and oratorios just to find this. And I'm glad I did.


And now I contemplate how much longer I want to lay in bed or go downstairs, because I don't want to be anywhere near mom right now.

xx I Want Your Spell, I Want Your Voodoo Marz

Shit On My Mind

1. I hate that now that I've updated Firefox, it doesn't remember some of my most visited URLs, which makes rapid typing in the search bar harder.

2. I finished The Heir yesterday and I REALLY hate Anna for turning down Westhaven's six proposals, but I hate Westhaven just as much for waiting until the seventh to tell her that he loved her. It's still one of the most amazing books I've ever read and no book I read after is ever as good. I feel like Westhaven when I put sugar on my pineapples like he puts extra sugar in his lemonade.

3. My hair is black. Oh yes, it's blacker than the blackest black times infinity. I like it a lot! I feel like Anette <3 I only stained my bathroom to get this pretty color! I'm sure it's not gonna be fading anytime soon, so, it's a good thing I like it. I AM ZATANNA. And Marceline and Dawn. Well, Dawn's hair is blue. Ehhhh, close enough. I guess Marceline's is blue too. Who cares, I'm so fabulous now.

Not sure what else to do today. I guess I could clean stuff up. Hmmmmmmmm.

xx So I Run Run Run Marz

Musical Mood

My favorite things to sing while working. It's been a rough few days, but one thing's been the same. Ever since picking The Heir back up, I've been addicted to all the juicy romanticized idea of life. It's weird, but it makes me happier in a way, having that loving feeling in me, even though I'm just reading a book. One of my favorite parts of the book:

"Someday, she thought, I want to love a man so thoroughly that even when he pours tea for my guests, it is merely one more reason to be pleased with him and with my life because he is in it."

NOW IF ONLY ANNA WASN'T SUCH A SECRETIVE BITCH AND WOULD ACCEPT WINDHAVEN'S MULTIPLE PROPOSALS TO BE HIS DUCHESS. I could eat this up for days. But, it's time to get back to work. AHOY, DRAWING PENCILS!

xx Every Wave In The Lake Cause The Porcelain To Break Marz

I'M HOME

OH SWEET JESUS I'M HOME. But who cares, because I just found the most amazing thing ever.

FUCK YEAH NIGHTWISH MEME!

Oh my God these are awesome. I can't stop laughing, especially the ones about Tuomas looking like Jack Sparrow. Tam used to always say that when he looked at my wallpaper. Really, these memes are so dumb, but I love my band and I'm dying over here.

Hopefully now that I'm back at home, I can post regularly again. I just really didn't feel like writing about my day on here after I told it to five different people and a sketchbook. But, hopefully the jetlag goes away so I can stop going to bed at 10 PM and actually enjoy my summer hours when I can totally stay up late without really having to (It's less fun when you're up til four doing layouts).

I dunno, things are changing all around. People are changing, relationships are changing, priorities are changing, life is changing. Just a lot of weird things going on here and in the next few weeks. I really just want to be settled into the new house already and just get it over with so I can start mentally prepping for the school year. Not like I really do that anyways, but, it's nice to not have to worry about packing for a trip, going on the trip, the bunnies, packing my room, moving, unpacking, and bonding the two bunnies.

I'm so damn tired. I need to try and stay awake a little longer. Soda's not helping!
