...im so confused

i just found out that the person that posts my favorite tumblr is 16. SIXTEEN!!!
wtf?!
im so confused... especially because im confused about what is confusing me about that. why cant she be 16? you dont have to be... not 16... to collect pictures on the internet. you dont have to be ... not 16...
this is totally making me feel like a pedophile or something.
just to clear up.
this person:
courtney
posts on the tumblr
waif & co.


i dont know. i just think its weird. especially because i've been checking these couple tumblr's almost religiously for the past couple weeks and have been feeling really inspired. and now i feel like that's not ok for some reason. that's its lame or something to be inspired by someone who's younger than you. you know, even as i type this i realize how ridiculous it is. fuckit. i still like waif & co. however, i've learned my lesson. im not going to try and find out who the people are who are posting on the other tumblr's i like. because sometimes... it's better to just not know.

btw! 2 new releases!

Here they are!

this switch:
http://illphabetik.com/releases.php?release=1382

mym_use:
http://www.weirdandwired.net/Woulg.htm

they were supposed to be simultaneously released, although you wouldn't know it. it was actually a bit of a splatter effect with the weirdandwired one coming out a LOT earlier than the illphabetik one. apparently there was a bit of a miscommunication on all counts. no biggie. they are out and i am proud of how they sound. hope you dig 'em too.
leave feedbacks!

end of 3rd life/ start of 4th

\as my third life draws to a close and my fourth life is about to begin...
i'm feeling a little down. at least my third life ended with a bit of a bang. i guess we'll see what happens in my fourth, frankly, im a little nervous. 7 years is a long time... a lot can happen. and i kind of feel like my fourth life is going to be my most important one.

beh,
i guess i've turned into quite the new age hippy. ah well, fuckit.

fuck.

good and haard.

...that's what she said. about this net label: http://www.zardonicrecs.ve.tc/
they were alright back in the day but their newer releases have been consistently quite good. and if you want something a little more chill i recommend downloading their various album or getting the fuck off that site. because its exactly like the name of the post says: good and haard.

also, apparently pk sound has a new website and they want us all to check it out. they make some pretty good speakers and throw some wicked ass parties.

i hope the dude who sent me this email is ok with me posting it on here... i definitely didnt ask him. sorry!
anyways, i figured he would rather be left unnamed so, if he finds this and tells me to remove it or credit it to him then i will...

Also,
we talked in sound class about this disease where you hear a constant ringing in your ears.
there was an ariticle in time magazine i think about it. apparently this one guy who was happy his entire life, very cheery fellow, wife, kids, grandkids, very loving wonderful guy, got it after a car alarm went off beside him... afterwards he told time magazine something along the lines of

"now i go out in thunderstorms and stand by flag poles and pray that god will take me"



i dont know why i posted this... i just thought it was interesting.

not ok to have friends... .......... !?!?!?!?

all my life i've liked having people around. having friends to talk to. friends to share with, to listen to, to learn from. for me, the best way to solve problems is to talk them out. to discuss them and to bounce ideas around. it's not possible to do this on my own.
recently people have been telling me i need to learn how to love myself. i need to learn how to be alone.
i do love myself. i love my alone time. i love taking a break from all the bullshit. i make music on my own. i read on my own. i appreciate the world around me when im on my own. but why the FUCK do i have to sit and wallow in my fucking sorrow ALONE?
what is this horse shit?
how will i ever solve my problems without outside help? when you have a question in class do you go home and sit in your room alone and think about it? if you were writing your phd would you lock yourself up to "be alone" and wait for the answers and the knowledge to just come to you? ... or would it be more wise to raise your hand and ask questions? to learn from those who know the answers? or at least get their opinions...


so come over, hang out, meet me for coffee, or give me a call. but for fucks sake. dont try to tell me that i need to learn how to love myself.
