i am daniel.

I woke up and everything is crazy. It’s snowing and I have no idea what’s going on. Things are no where near what they were yesterday. Shit.

edit: and the more I think about it, the more I realize I’m completely full of shit. Weekend come soon.

Jazz and rum and coke whilst doing theory homework ftw.

Hannah is now following me. What a creeper.

In San Marcos, Tx, this sunday was beautiful. It was 79 degrees and sunny. There were people and dogs everywhere. What a wonderful day. Too all my friends in the north, I’m sorry. I don’t own a scarf or a real pair of gloves and I like it that way. Texas ftw.

This is from that Vice book I was reading in the studio last night. This is from an article on the best ways to find yourself. Here are some of my favorites.

2. TELLING YOUR DAD TO FUCK OFF AND BEING PREPARED TO FIGHT HIM
You have to have already moved out of the house for this one. Obviously your Dad could pulverize you if shit did go down——this isn’t about that. It’s about cutting the cord by burning a bridge. After all the dust settles from this fight the next step (and this takes years) is to become his pal. This involves getting drunk with him and realizing he is as shitty as all your other friends.

9. THE MAGIC FOUR
This one is only for guys. In order to become a man you have to: 1) break someone’s heart; 2) have your heart broken; 3) get the shit beaten out of you; and 4) beat the shit out of someone. That means: 1) she has to be so fucked up she almost kills herself. Like, doesn’t eat for three days and falls down the stairs drunk; 2) you are so fucked up you have to punch yourself in the head to stop thinking about her; 3) you end up in the hospital with a severely broken nose and some sort of permanent facial scar; and 4) he’s not really moving at the end. You’re kind of just kicking a blob.

10. HAVING A BREAKDOWN
OK you have to have two, actually. When you’re 16 you have to have a complete breakdown in front of your parents where you’re convulsing and crying for no reason. THEN, when you’re about 23 you have to hit an existential brick wall where you realize you’re going to die and not go to heaven or anything. After about three days of going, “Why am I here?” you will figure out if you’re here to fight for justice or worship Allah or entertain people or just totally indulge yourself with as much sex, drugs and attention as humanly possible.

12. MOSHING
It can be scary to mosh for the first time. Especially when you’re a fourteen-year-old girl who weighs 100 pounds soaking wet. But fuck it, get hurt. There’s nothing better than a war story from the pit. Moshing is great because it’s so utterly ridiculous, but at the same time so liberating, to just throw your body into a mass of people. It’s like, the music is so good it turns us all into mental patients and retards and we run around in circles and that is AWESOME. It was a very new way for me to let myself go, to not be self-conscious when I dance and fully embrace the music. It sounds so corny and it should, because if you think you are too cool to mosh, you are wrong! Moshing is too cool for you!

I’m half way there on 10 and 9, and I’ll never do 2. I’ve sort of done 12, but I’ve never face walked or anything.

I love Austin, Texas. I love playing a great show in a great venue with great bands. I love playing shows. I’m so blessed. I love when I’m done playing the show, there’s a beer waiting for me, and in the green room I get to hang out with our engineer Jason and our producer Frenchie, who have both made some great records. I love the pizza on 6th street. I love recording new EP’s, even if I have to up in 5 hours or so. I’m so blessed.

When it rains it pours, so I’m locking my doors, and I won’t open up until summer, when I’m back on the east coast, and the one reason to wait, is truly everything great, but it’d be nice sleep close to a warm body, who likes my smile, I’m amazed to be honest, to think anyone would think such a stupid thing.

working out and listening to andrew w.k. ftw. I think I’m in about week 5.

we’re all just dating clones, of our ex-boyfriends and girlfriends,

and you’re a lot like her, and maybe I could act like him,

except you’re more beautiful, then I remember her being,

I think I’m dumb enough to try it again,

but I know how to act now,I swear I’d treat you better,

I swear I would never make those mistakes twice,

I want to take you out for whatever your hungry for,

I want to tell you that your dress looks nice,

I’d show you my parents, introduce my sister,

I’m sure you two have a lot in common,

I want to celebrate anniversaries,

I promise all those dates will never be forgotten,

I want to take you places, that you’ve never been to,

I’d go anywhere, if it was with you

and the place that you’ve already seen,

I swear I’d find a way, to make it all feel new

we’re all just dating clones, of our ex-boyfriends and girlfriends,

you look a lot like her, and maybe I could act like him,

but you’re far more everything, then she ever was,

I think I’d like to maybe try again

Hey. I got a tattoo.

Three goddesses were sitting in an old Indian temple. Their names were Truth (always telling the truth), Lie (always lying) and Wisdom (sometimes lying). A visitor asked the one on the left: “Who is sitting next to you?”
“Truth,” she answered.
Then he asked the one in the middle: “Who are you?”
“Wisdom.”
Lastly, he asked the one on the right: “Who is your neighbor?”
“Lie,” she replied.
And then it became clear who is who.

Can you re-blog this and figure it out? (If you can, explain yourself.) I’m giving this as a presentation in my math class tomorrow, and want to see other people’s point of view on it.

Simple. Let’s see if the person on the left is Truth. She can’t be. If she was truth, when asking who was sitting next to her, she could only say Wisdom or Lie, if it was in fact Truth. So is Truth in the middle? No, because when asked who she was, she would say Truth. So therefore, Truth is on the right. If truth is on the right, and she is, then Lie is in the middle. So wisdom is on the left.

Boom.
