CMJ

HaYy ALL -

I didn't really do much this CMJ but here is what I did see:
-Mumford & Sons @ MHOW who were great
-Part of Brooklyn Vegan/Bowery Presents day showcase at Pianos on Saturday with Cymbals Eat Guitars (my new favorite band) and Pete & the Pirates
-p4k/showpaper benefit @ market hotel w/ Real Estate (always good), Cold Cave (who sucked), Delorean, and Cymbals Eat Guitars (yes, twice in one day)
-An awesome show at Above the Auto Parts Store w/ Surfer Blood, Sisters, Screaming Females and JEFF the Brotherhood. No one bled from their head this week but Lightning Bolt is there on Friday and that may be a totally different story...

pictures from the JEFF show up on BrooklynVegan here!
pictures from the p4k/showpaper show up on BrooklynVegan here!

NOT OKAY.

Dear Gareth Pugh,

What the fuck was with your video tonight? Super disappointing and not going to lie...pretty retarded. What happened to having things like this:



(AKA THINGS THAT ARE AWESOME AND NOT SO PRETENTIOUS IT HURTS.)

The video tonight didn't even showcase the clothing...which I THOUGHT was the whole point. It showed like two things you could hardly make out and then some weird fog shit.

Caitlin and I walked all the way down Bubby's for a late night dinner and had egg creams and vegetable chili. The waiter gave us a free cupcake and we went into the photobooth. Tonight was awesome but I am upset with Gareth Pugh. FOR SHAME!!

...more detailed post later on the happenings of my ~*~fAbULouZ lYfE*~*~ when I get all my photos up to coincide with the post. I just wanted to express my outrage right now.

So excited

Okay so some exciting things:

- I love my freshman seminar teacher, he is awesome and an amazing photographer!
- I got a new camera today since my Nikon F is broken (so sad, but we go on...)
- Venexiana fittings/castings tomorrow!
- Fashion Week coming up
- Venexiana after party is at Kiss&Fly (SO HILARIOUS I LOVE IT)
- Parents possibly bringing food/antibiotics/etc.

Not so exciting things:
- Getting sick again. Feels like the beginning of my asthmatic bronchitis I had earlier this year. please God, do not let me get that again.
- So much supply shopping/homework to do and not enough time.
- Having to live off of Airbourne and Emergen-c for the next week.
- Not having any clothes I want to wear for the Venexiana show or anything else :(
- L Magazine throwing away one of my LARGE PRINTS. WHAT THE FUCK.

Anyway, gotta get up early tomorrow. Trying to decide if I'm going to the Under the Tracks show or the No Age show at NYU. Or if I should go at all since I am getting sick and should probably rest/do my homework. Ugh, life iz so00oo0oo00000ooooooo hard!11!!

First day of college

Had my first class today: From Line to Pixel. I had no idea what the hell that even meant but it's like a mixed media computer class. It's 6 hours long (um lol) but our teacher let us out early today. Basically she shunned the use of iPhoto and that is all I ever use (I know...I know...) so I need to work on that. The supply list is going to kill me but whatever (although one of the supplies needed was a spool of yarn. um, what?).

I wish BlackBoard listed the kids in my class so I could be a super creep and facebook stalk all night since I don't have class until 3 pm tomorrow (AGAIN). I don't really like having class at 3 because I wait all day for class. Today I just sat on the computer for like, 4 hours (not like I don't do that already anyway) but still. Caitlin got back from her first class and left for work even before I left for MY first class.

I have drawing tomorrow which should be interesting since I can't draw.
LOVEZ IT.

Lightning Bolt photos from yesterday are up on BV: Click here.
Also I got my iPod Shuffle that I won from Butterlane (the best cupcake place in all of new york and you can quote me on that) today and I love it. It came just in time because my iPod broke this morning. Sweet life.

I start college today

What the fuck.
So weird. 3 pm - 9 pm! What is that?!
That is all I have to say.

Also:
Lightning Bolt today were amazing and you must be stupid if you decided not to come. They played on a stage which was weird, but that's bcuz bRkLYN iz jUs 2 cRazEE* f0 DeM~* (or obnoxious, same shit). They sounded amazing, pix will probz be up on Brooklyn Vegan later today. I'm exhausted so I am going TO BED.

"SIT DOWN OR MOVE"

I saw Blondie and Pat Benatar today in Coney Island. Debbie Harry is still a badass and I love her, I ran into too many people I knew, and everyone in fucking Coney Island needs an attitude adjustment.

Every person there thought they owned a piece of the land and if you stepped on their territory they acted like you seriously offended them. Everyone had no IQ and probably dropped out of school in the 5th grade. I had an 80 year old woman almost smack me in the face because I was standing and she could not see from her fucking lawn chair. Bitch please, it's a concert. If you can't deal with people standing up then watch it from your nursing home's balcony. Plus, do you even know who you are watching? Probably not. Do you even know you are at a concert? Probably not. I didn't get the memo that this was a BRING YOUR LAWN CHAIR AND ACT LIKE A BITCH concert. Next time I will be more prepared.

You would step on someone's blanket and they would yell, you would stand and you would be bitched at by 40 different people. After one old woman told us to "SIT DOWN OR MOVE" maybe 50 times, we left because I hate being yelled at by large groups of people. As we were leaving, some asshole started applauding and everyone followed.

Some foreign guy came up to us during the show and screamed "WHAT IS THIS? A FUCKING PICNIC CONCERT? NO!" and pranced away. We met completely wasted guys who worked at Marc Jacobs. One put me on TEAM PARSONS with him and made me spin dance with him. So awkward, but hilarious. I am so sore and so over having to deal with rude people. Never again will I go to a free show in Coney Island. NEVER EVER! (okay that's probz a lie but w/e i'm being passionate)

In the end it was pretty funny but JESUS CHRIST. Okay I need to go to bed now.

The most active I've ever been

Today Nikki, Houston and I decided to find Mountain Lake. It's this lake in Tuxedo Park/Tuxedo that I never knew existed until recently and we found it totally ridiculous that in all our years living in this town we never visited it. So, after lunch we set off on an adventure. We started to take a trail but then for some reason we decided to venture off that trail (which, would have ultimately led us to our destination a lot quicker/more safely) and make our own path.

We climbed mountains, ran into wildlife, and a few times contemplated if it was really worth all the struggle. Well, once we finally reached the top of the steepest cliff yet, we saw the light reflecting slightly off of...what?! is that water?! yes! yes it is!

It stopped there because there was really no defined shoreline so we kind of just sat for awhile and examined our wounds. On our way back, we got a little lost but found the original trail and got back to our cars.

I went into the pool for the first time in like, two years. Then, I was forced to swim 50 butterfly and 50 freestyle in a swim meet. I lost and I still have water in my ears but it was fun.

I then hung out with Nikki for awhile at his house. We watched his cousin's show and then went over to Houston's and played Mortal Kombat. As always, Ian was the Flash and used that one supermove constantly and won without any struggle.

We decided to go see Harry Potter 6 at midnight. It was fun, it was long...Hillary and I laughed the entire time. As we were all leaving this one kid dropped all of his Skittles and everyone stared at him, his family frozen in the act, and he goes, "Great! JUST GREAT!" Perfect ending. I got home around 3:45 am which is honestly so late. I should go to bed now.
