[ music | Saint-Saens - L'Elephant ]

For the longest time, I've been telling everyone who asks that Debussy is my favorite composer, but I think Saint-Saens is about to close in on him, which is weird right? Didn't Saint-Saens not like Debussy?

Well, I like them both. They are my favorite composers :3

[ music | Tchaikovsky ]

When I hear classical music, particularly Classical music like Mozart and Beethoven, I feel really calm and balanced inside. It's a good feeling. I've been listening to a lot of classical music lately. Chopin's Nocturnes are also really good. Anything Debussy is amazing.

I don't know. When I go back to listening contemporary stuff, it sounds really jarring and the words kind of annoy me. It just feels good to be awash and moved along by music. Yeah...I don't really know a lot about classical music, but it's lovely stuff. It makes me happy, which is kind of a rare thing these days, so yeah. Good.

For your listening pleasure: Schumann's "The Prophet Bird" played by Sergio Florentino

Recommend me something too, if anyone's reading this. I am particularly enamored with Saint-Saens right now and just Romantic music in general. And Impressionist music. I am always game for Impressionist music.

anxious ramblings )

As for my classes, I'm ok I guess. My schedule is pretty hectic. I basically have classes from around 11am to 7-9pm everyday or so. Hahaha. The classes are interesting though. Except for lab. Lab is making me miserable. For those who do not understand the lab situation at ucsd, we do not take a lab as part of a class, the lab is a class. It has a lecture. The lab has a lecture. And yeah, this particular lab is only worth 3 units, but some are worth about 4 or 5, which is as much and sometimes more than most regular classes.

Ah, but I complain too much.

OTZ.

absolutely poetic [27 Sep 2009|11:32pm]
[ music | interpol - leif erikson ]

This is the kind of night where I'd like to light up and suck in sweet smelling smoke as the crackle and orange glow of a cigarette comforts me and makes the nerves go away. It's the kind of night where I'm supposed to see a million stars and feel small and cold, but reassured knowing everyone else is as insignificant as me.

But no.

I am lit by cruddy fluorescent lights in my dingy apartment on our ugly, smelly sofa. My roommate is sleeping, the garbage trucks are making loud noises, and the loud drunk laughter of college kids floats up through the open window. I haven't eaten real food in days and all I can think about is poisoning my lungs and starwatching.

Yeah, I sure do have my priorities straight.

It's not the world, it's not the government, it's not my friends. It's me. I'm the one who sucks.

self imposed isolation [12 Sep 2009|05:54pm]
So after too many arguments over text/IM, I decided to not text or IM or facebook or tumble today. Maybe out of convenience I forgot to add LJ to the list. Not enough people read this to qualify it as part of the social networking blackout anyway.

boring reminiscing )

PS: I removed the layout I had in place. Rad!
PPS: Next summer, I hope to see more of this grand world. I have developed a love for long drives and greasy diner food at 2am so hopefully I'll get some traveling done, whether alone or together.
