que

I'm in Wellington for two years.
I don't know why.
I hate myself and this blog and my Humane Society International 'Personal message from Pierce Brosnan'.
Verdad.

THIS IS A ZUMBA BODY.

Does anyone actually go in for an appointment solely 'consult their doctor before embarking on this fitness program'? If anyone does this, you are a jerk, in the same way that people who buy blue glitter eye makeup or force their dog to become a vegetarian or overfish tuna or buy an owl city cd are jerks. 

I went to my friends house the other day for a 'party'. They all got drunk and decided to whip out her ZUMBA! dvds. No, we are not all 50 years old. There is possibly nothing more entertaining in the present world than watching seven or eight 's0 w4st3d' people try and boogie to the 'infectiously hot latin beats'. I am aware I am using 'quotes' too much. If I were saying this in person I would probably be doing those air quote things with my hands alongside, as far as I'm concerned, those never became uncool, but anyway - ZUMBA! .. is scary. Not quite Leslie Van Houten, but scary enough. Nobody can dance as well, or as terrifyingly as the people in the videos in real life in front of the TV. It's like a magic world where people in cargo pants and hoop earrings are trapped in a room and commanded by an evil columbian man who forces them to 'push it harder'. They chant words that are not in the dictionary. They wear tops that barely qualify as this. Sometimes, they even carry weights, yet continue to smile creepily and dance on command, transfixed. 

If you have read the above without warning bells ringing in your head, let me break it down for you some more: ZUMBA! is an evil cult. But seriously. You can tell it is evil from the cargo pants and the endorsment from an 'Award Winning Actress' whom I have not heard of- and what exactly was the award she won? It obviously wasn't an elite or famous one like an oscar or even I suppose an emmy otherwise they would have included that in with her title, meaning it has to be some other award. If you don't specify exactly what kind of award it could be anything. I mean, technically, I could go around saying I am an 'Award Winning Actress' and it would be true, and people with no brains would be in awe of me and my presumptious, slightly illustrious title. There would be no need to elaborate and admit the 'award' was from year 9 or 11 or whatever other year drama class. Her award is probably something along the lines of 'best improvisation on wednesday class, joes school of advanced acting'- and kudos to her! I am sure there was a lot of competition. Just people should not feel so instinctually awed by a title. It doesn't even specify that she won the award IN acting. As in - (I am previously) Award Winning (highly commended school science fair, and now working as an) Actress. My point (or one of them) is,If you have ever won an award in your life, RUN FREE. Claim a vaguely false-but-still-technically-true title and stick by it! Command respect and reap glory! Wow. I have wasted almost a paragraph on that. Anyway, CULTS. They have leaders or spokespeople. Who are false or lie-ish in some way. 

TO SUM UP:

ACTRESS LADY = DODGY SOUNDING AWARD. 
ZUMBA = CULT. 
ME = AWARD WINNING ACTRESS. 
OWL CITY = VOM

whenever I see thai writing I
think the person is really from Atlantis
and writing in a secret under-the-sea language.

also that is not poetic *breaking of sentences into lines* shit above, I can't get it to format properly.

My tongue is burnt but I have discovered a SUPER SECRET SOLUTION to it that basically I just googled for so it's not that secret but whatever. Essentially it's SUGAR ON YOUR TOUNGE and it works like woah. This is exciting stuff. The sugar is making my tongue feel better but the fact that MUSE are on television is not because the lead singer is so whiney and MUSE fans are 6th annoying type of music fans I have decided, 6th because admittedly there are two exceptions to the annoying rule. I might post that list later. I'm listening to C4 or rather, watching C4 and I'm really not sure why because 8 songs + the videos in a row have been terrible. I haven't listened to da top 40zz or whatever this is in a while or whatever, but I don't remember it being really this terrible when I left. I feel so unhip, yo. Gotta get with da latest trendz, or whatever. I mean, do people even still do ThAt TyPiNg ThInG anymore? the uncertainty of these things feels somewhat alienating. 

Hmmmm.

Sometimes I feel a lot like I might explode. (is that ok) I really think Ayn Rand is just amazing sometimes, but then again, sometimes I'm convinced nothing is real and that John Lennon is maybe octopi..

Jen Stark - Website

I like lines and stop motion photography and little things and tessellation. HENCE I like Jen Stark. It's like my doodles only talented and with really, really nice pens. I really quite wish I just had a lot of free amazing stationery because I really just don't want to spend money on it myself, I just want nice pens. Also, I finally watched Les Quatre Cents Coups and it's actually just so incredibly moving and beautiful, but not in a in an 'oh wow, Celine Dion is moving and beautiful my heart will go on WILL YOUR HEART GO ON? jack and rose moving I am so moved move move move' way, more in a bleak aesthetic/parental family misunderstandings and oppression kind of way. Which is a better way because I've never been a Celine Dion person. I mean sure, everybody somehow ends up with My Heart Will Go On on their itunes but they never actually know how it got there.. maybe it just comes with the installation because seriously, everybody seems to have it. Maybe it's a sort of virus. CHECK YOURS NOW, if you are suffering from mysterious Celine Dion infection on your itunes without knowing how it happened MY THEORY IS PROVED. Seriously, I do not remember downloading this song. Whyyy does it exist here. I'm going to thoroughly inspect my entire itunes now for any other infection like songs that may have somehow materialized. I want falafels and rice balls. And nachos. Nachos are the king of all foods. 

When I grow up I want to be a nacho. Or own a nacho hut in Santa Fe only chances are people in Santa Fe can make better nachos than I can, I mean, Santa Fe is in New Mexico. Minus the 'new' it's practically Mexico and Mexico has nachos in abundance. It's nacho central. If I didn't suck so much at spanish and have lack of plane ticket I would seriously consider living there. Santa Fe. Or Mexico. Either really. I think I'm going to do volunteer work in orphanages in South America for 6th months after school. Well, hopefully anyway.. I can't explain but I want to help, or try to help. Although then how much help do voulenteers give? Eating host family food and goofing off and whining and disrespecting, oh dear. I don't want to just sit and get an office job or sit and stay in this current situation, and experiences are important and I want to learn. There are so many possibilities and so many options and wow, only then people can feel so cut off and one day it won't be like that maybe. CONFUSION. but not really. I know what I want to say but I can't get my ideas into words very well, it doesn't fit.

NEW VAVE

"Some people can do carpentry, some people can do mathematics, some people are brain surgeons and some people are winos and that’s the way it is, and we’re not all the same. This concept of one world-ism, everything blended and smoothed out to this mediocre norm that everybody downgrades themselves to be is stupid." - Frank Zappa


I don't speak German but I figure music is universal. I'm sick of the English language, my grasp of it is so poor.
