Why is Justin smashing a disco ball on the cover of his new album Futuresex/Lovesounds? Is he upset that his movie Edison Force went to straigt to DVD or is he upset because he and Cameron got into a big fight before this photoshoot (you can even see a little bit of the studio they were at through the disco ball). Aw, who I'm kidding, I can't wait to listen to this new record because it has lots of profanity.

I also want to listen to this record because controversey leads to intrigue, which then manifests itself in an unlimited number of possibilities in the sense of the artistic direction for this album

I'll admit, I have a strange and profuse love for profanity now because I think that we all need a release in this world. I don't promote going about that release in violent ways, but if you can shout out expletives without physically harming anyone, then I'm fine with it unless you misuse it to threaten someone. Essentially however, I just believe in the right to free speech for everyone without its censorship.

Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me... Or will Justin Timberlake smash me with his disco ball?

Silent Rachel Speaks

Do people have no sense of decorum these days? Its funny how the smallest acts can leave the biggest ramifications.

I was at Starbucks this evening and I saw two classmates from Liberty sitting down (I won't reveal their names, but they know who they're). I politely smiled at them as I was coming up to the register and all of a sudden, after I placed my order, they got up and left.  

My intention was to politely chat with them after I placed my order, but they decided to be rude and ignorant by giving me the cold shoulder.

I may not be friends with them, (after all, we're just classmates) but I still wanted to be civil by politely conversing with them about how their summer went.

I also don't appreciate the people who've never attempted to call me after I left them my number in their yearbook!

They've spun a web for me...

I'm proud to announce today that I now have a new blog hosted at typepad. It's called Ethereal Goddess and from this point forward I will be posting there from now on unless I decide to close it. The layout that you see there's temporary, as I'm hoping to vamp up the current scheme and bring in something different. Please shower me with comments and read the new posts!

Note: At this time I won't be shutting down my Xanga. I'll still log on to comment and read subscription, but thats about it.

Match Point

As you can see, clearly I'm too lazy to update my blog. This is why I'm finally following my dreams to open up my own blog on my own domain. Its still in the development stages, but I'm more and more determined to get it up and running. Once it's up, I'll finally be free of the contract (as I like to call it) that comes with having a xanga, myspace, livejournal, etc.

On another note, I just watched Match Point last night. It was everything I imagined it to be and more. I like to think of it as this year's Closer, except it takes a neurotic and dark turn. With enough said, I also rented Red Eye the same night at Hollywood Video. For anyone that's thinking about seeing it, don't. This movie isn't even scary, despite a creepy Cillian Murphy trying to threaten Rachel McAdams's character, Lisa. Its very predictable and a waste of your $4. I also didn't like Rachel McAdam's last movie, The Family Stone. The only good movies she's made are Mean Girls and The Wedding Crashers. Speaking of movies, some of the next films I wish to see are Junebug and Hustle and Flow. I'm also considering Transamerica (but only if it plays in my area).

Game. Set. Match Point.

Blah, I can't get myself to complete one of my government assignments. I'm supposed to track down ten current events (seems easy) but when it comes to writing down the relevance of the story to the class, my mind can't help but draw a blank. I rather read and discuss current events rather thn write down a boring summary and relevance. Sadly, I won't be doing as well second quarter than first, but hopefully I can pass the exam to make up for it.

Relapse just can't help but get the best of me. I rode this tidal wave of success the first quarter and after I stopped caring, I stopped giving the best of myself. As strange as it seems, maybe it's failure (or fear of it) that gives me momentum once more despite how hard everything is and is going to be. The way I see it, "Life is going to knock you down sometimes, but whats more important is that you don't let life keep you down. Don't worry, I know I'm not going to be down for long".

I'm also happy to announce that now  I've been accepted to Nevada State College (NSC). It may not be a big league university, but if  I play my cards right and work my way up, I know I can surpass my expecations and even move to a bigger university where I can get serious about my major I'm going to declare in the future.
