It's All Happening

All my AP tests are over, so that means I'm (unofficially) done with school. This Friday, I watched "The Queen," got three free periods and finished the day off with an episode from the Simpsons. I'm not complaining! It's so weird that my childhood is over. I only know who I am in the context of my family, in the context of my high school. But I'll figure it out. Here I come Swarthmore! Here are some songs to blast out the window on a new summer day.

Greaaaat japanese group. beep beep!
80kidz - Life Begins at Eighty

I wake up almost everyday to this song.
The Boy Least Likely To - Be Gentle With Me

Something about staring at the ocean
Ambulance - I Am Not Zen

I'm in a dance show and we use this ridiculous French song.
Alizee - Moi... Lolita

On Repeat

I had to choose between being blind and being deaf, I would lose my sight. I only get four songs stuck in my head. So if I could never listen to music again, I'd be forced to listen to the same songs over and over again in my brain. That would ess you kay suck. Here are those four songs, in all their impossibly obnoxious catchiness.

Elevator, elevator, shut the fuck up.
Stars - Elevator Love Letter

SSLYBY forever and ever and ever and ever...
Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin - I Am Warm and Powerful

This is embarrassingly good.
Motion City Soundtrack - Perfect Teeth

Those crazy scandanavians
Junior Senior - Can I Get Get Get

Ligers, oh my!

I have six cats, a dog, and a baby boa constrictor living at my house(s). Their names are Comet, Audrey, Cleo, Possum, Vito, Keitha, Jester and Sid respectively. Sometimes my mom's boyfriends dogs come over and I can barely step through the house. I suppose it's only natural that I love bands with animal names.

Check out the New York Magazine article about the boys' new album!
Grizzly Bear - Two Weeks

Just google this crazy's name into Google images. Aishiteru.

God I hate to say it... this is hauntingly beautiful. (bleh ew I said it)
A Perfunctory Clockwork Yawn - Mimicking Birds

When I Say Go

A hypnotist came to our school yesterday and fucked some shit up. One (hilarious) kid protected a group of fruit until he was convinced they were planning a conspiracy against him. My friend Bear stole the show with his ballet dancing and alien game-spitting. Anyways, here are some songs I'm diggin. No theme.

TPC sux live. But this remix is dead on.
Tokyo Police Club - Your English Is Good (K-Os Remix)

If you're young, confused, and have access to a squirt gun.
