I know I don’t EVER use Tumblr anymore, but I recently came across a band that I am LOVING and really want to help promote.

Some specs:

Name: Pan (*as in Peter Pan)

Origin: Columbia, SC

Genre: Post Rock

Website: www.youarethepan.com

Why you should listen: These guys are AMAZING at what they do. Not only is the music uplifting and emotional—oftentimes as Post Rock seems to be—Pan is able to capture this essence with short tracks, little to no vocals, and a heavy rock flair. Comparing this band to Explosions in the Sky would be like comparing apples to oranges—yes, they are both fruit, but the look and taste sets them apart.

I highly recommend this band and that you find out if they’re playing a show sometime soon NEAR YOU!!!!

I wrote “Maria” for a friend’s girlfriend. Instrumental only. Enjoy.

I’m pretty sure Asians would have been next in line for extinction. Though they might not have seen it coming.

Just another weird neighbor.

I’ve been watching Xena and I’m pretty sure all my neighbors know it because of the yelling noise I make every other second. I mean—they can’t confuse the “Xena yell” with anything else, right?

Moms & Football?

It’s weird to be away from home for a long time just to come back to find your mother’s personality has entirely changed. I can hear her from upstairs yelling at the Carolina Game “OH, COME ON GUYS!”….

Since when did my mom start talking to televisions—first off—and since when did she become a football fan?

Is this part of the “big change”?

Oh No...

I have an audition and I have to be a “crying girl”!! The only thing that really ever makes me cry is Destiny’s Child and movie trailers.

I DON’T KNOW WHAT TO DO. Destiny’s Child mixed with the Harry Potter 7 trailer will just distract me from my goal.

I hate when...

People say something trying to impress you but you’re already pretty unimpressed by this person to even think that something they say is worth listening to, but they keep going on about it anyway just because they want to feel better about themselves even though they’re not really ALL THAT AND A BAG OF CHIPS.

GOOOOOD MOOOOORNING CALIFORNIA!

Sexy??

Thu, 02 Sep 2010 00:08:30 -0400

So I recently befriended this guy that I had a crush on in middle school & today he facebook chatted me!! Obviously this was one of my tween fantasies come true so I wanted to sound funny & like the “girl that got away”.

This is where our conversation has ended at the moment:

Me

we had a disaster of a toilet clog (via him) last thursday and now I and the other therapists have to teach him what to do…if that were to happen again…he went from tuesday to thursday with his toilet being clogged, shitting in it STILL, without telling me…FML

Josh

ohhhh that’s no good

Me

yeah, he’s 18…

Josh

I like that you put (via him) just so I would know it wasn’t one of your massive turds that clogged up the toilet

hahaha

…my tween fantasy sucks

I’m at my grandma’s house for the day because later tonight we’re celebrating my ~~22nd birthday.~~ Eek…

Anyway, my great grandma lives with my grandparents and she asked me to wheel her into her bedroom to look for a piece of jewelry. She proceeded to look for a pin to wear to my party, but couldn’t find it.

My grandma came in and pointed out to my great grandma that she was already wearing it. This is the conversation that took place:

Grandma: Well mom, you already have your pin on your sweater.

Great Grandma: Well why in the world did you pin it up so high? I can’t even see it.

Grandma: Well did you want me to pin it by your booby?

Great Grandma: Well I would have been able to find it! (Looking at me) I never had boobs when I was growing up either Kayla.

Me: Okay, thanks.

Great Grandma: Now that I don’t need boobs, I have big ones. Want to see a 91 year old ladies boobs?

Grandma: Mom, put your shirt back down.

EXIT KAYLA STAGE LEFT.

I’m SO EXCITED to see The Avett Brothers in concert. October 20th can’t come fast enough!!

PMS? I can never tell...

I woke up this morning feeling really bad, listened to an Alexi Murdoch song—which made me feel worse—and then started facebook chatting with a guy I always wanted to be better friends with. I almost asked him to coffee just so that I could get to know him better, but his facebook chat box returned my message saying that he had gone offline.

Now I’m back to Alexi Murdoch feeling worse than I did before.

Morning Hard On

Fri, 27 Aug 2010 09:54:13 -0400

It’s funny when people interrupt what you’re saying and go, “Oh, I thought you were going to say _________(something sexually explicit).” Most of the time this happens when the conversation is least sexually explicit like:

1. At church—the preacher’s praying and goes, “Bow down and let Jesus come inside you.”

Really, church is the #1 place for these types of interruptions (via your own mind or someone else’s).

Anyway, it’s always funny/creepy to hear the perverted thoughts of others—though I suppose example 1. is your own mind being a boner.

Thank you Christina for my Morning Hard On.

acewepeel:

As everybody who attends my school knows, Boombox Man sightings are rare, but very exciting. Think Bigfoot, but more awesome.

I saw him today for the first time this year, blasting “Mixed Bizness” by Beck. He was clearly rocking out. I wanted to take a picture or video with my phone to preserve the moment, but just as he got closer, the boombox shut off and he became flustered.

“Is that it?” he said to himself as he checked the boombox. “Yep…that’s it.”

Then he walked away holding the boombox like a briefcase. I was too embarrassed to look at him as I headed the other way.

It was so sad.

RIP BOOMBOX MAN

I’ve heard that if you drive a “car-wrapped” vehicle with a brand name you have to keep your music down, windows up, and bumper clean. But what are the requirements when half your head is now an Oreo Cookie advertisement? Obviously this woman didn’t go to college—in Marketing 101 you learn NEVER TO DO THIS.

I was facebook stalking some random guy friend of an acquaintance I have. I was looking over his just uploaded wedding photos & kept wondering—-“seriously?”

Both bride and groom look hardly over 18 and both have Trump/Bieber comb overs.

Anyway, I realized today that I can’t really be nice so I think me wasting another day trying is pointless.

Hopefully she’s just knocked up & their trying to cover up the blunder. Crisis ~~overted~~ averted (thank you spell check).

I can’t decide if it’s really smart of my cat to drink from the faucet or if she’s too dumb to find her water dish…

My life as a sitcom

Thu, 26 Aug 2010 13:28:19 -0400

My roommate has Asperger’s Syndrome. Today has been pretty interesting:

1. We’re on the elevator with some random guy who gets off on our floor with us. My roommate goes, “He’s hot,” just loud enough for the guy to have heard. I said “~~roommate~~, you don’t say things like that when people can hear you.” He says, “But I’m bi-.”

Today my roommate’s bi.

2. I get upstairs and a friend is at my house. My friend asks to use my roommate’s bathroom. My roommate says, “Okay but it’s pretty shitty in there.” My roommate clogged up the toilet on Tuesday and has been shitting in it ever since.

Today my roommate plunged through shit.

I’m suppose to be practicing being a nice person but it really is not working out well.

And that is my life as a sitcom. Thanks for watching.
