I had dinner next to Jerry Buss (of the Los Angeles Lakers fame) last night. I didnt know who he was until someone told me.

He seems like a nice guy.

The street was covered in...ice. It turned white. My balcony looks like it snowed.

That was intense. But now it needs to stop.

Love,
Michael

UCLA had 50,000 applicants for undergrad

Thats the most in the nation and the first school to reach 50,000.

Thats a lot of reading....

I just had a panic attack.

That was WAAAAAAAAAAY too close

I just came back from dinner at the chancellor's house.

I found out at 12 today that there was a christmas thing there. So i went ahead and got myself on the guest list.

Free alcohol, some decent, non-meat food (he kept it kosher style)

It just sucks to come home drunk at 7:30. im tired. Still, well worth it.

Holy shit

So, Modest Mouse. The single most disappointing show i have been to in a while.

Isaac went all Rivers on us and only played crap from the new album. maybe 3 songs were from moon, building, or any of the other good albums.

Thats the last time i pay money to see him. Oh well.

So, for Halloween, my costume was straight-edge. Like, X's on my hands, faux-hawk, nails painted black, wore a lot of black, kind of deal.

I got one question quite often. "Does that mean you arn't drinking?"

Why is it that when you dress up like a doctor, people dont ask "Are you saving lives tonight?" Or if you dress up like a pirate, people dont ask "Steal any good booty lately?" (Well they do ask that, but not in the pirate sense)

Yet, I dress straight-edge, and the first question people ask is if i do what my costume suggests.

I dont get it.

sun shines on my face
how it's golden design
rain falls in this place
and the fields come alive
days are only rumours we've wasted

we cross the millions
we'll see where we stand
far removed from the womb
will you carry me across the sea?
will you carry me?
we can drink from fountains
and the taste of truth
far removed from the womb

rhythm and mind
don't waste no time
want to let it all out
when the chains fall off
and the walls fall down
when we break the seal
and our hearts pour out
when the frozen ground
comes alive around us
with a scream
