lots to say. little time.

it is the weekend! and a three day one at that!
I'm pretty happy to have three days of just chilling. School is just so exhausting, that on Friday I practically collapse on my bed once I get home. All those three-hours sleeping a night add up to tired Nicky B. :]]]

So yesterday after school, Fian, Renn, Eva, Claire, and I went down to Crepevine and spent a while there talking about teachers and people and whatnot. Just some good ol' bonding time yo'. After that crazy-ness Eva, Renn, and I started heading to the Randall Museum to go see some free Japanese movie that Renn had to see for Daffner's class. So are adventure began. We waited for the bus talking about how we'd probably be late and who Renn wouldn't mind driving her home. Hahaa. Then we get on this bus, and I knew they look sketchy when we got on, but get this these kids in the back kept lighting their lighters near Renn and Eva! I'm being an over-dramatic-bitch about it kinda but still, it had me laughing. We got off on Divisadaro and Haight (thank you for the directions EVA!) only to take the 24 towards 16th and Castro. Funny thing, last night we must have looked really lost because we were getting directions from everybody! Shooooot. On the street; on the bus; on the phone. The highlight of it was on the 24. Mann strange bus right there. We had a tranny behind us, some guy with naked people on his phone, and some old man that yelled out, "YOU NEED TO TAKE THE 37!" Goood times. Let's see. After walking up this big-as-hell hill we got to the museum. We checked in and went downstairs to this janky room with a projector set up. First we saw to short-films. A French animation, and some Irish drama. I don't really like French animation. Everything always seems so grotesque and putrid and it doesn't convey stuff appropriately. The Irish drama was a real...ehhh. I can't understand them! So the feature length was some Japanese mobster film. I though it was going to be interesting. But nahhh! Haha. So Eva and I just spent hella time dancing around the museum and looking at the inaccurate murals. Again, goood times. :]

Today I made a to-do list:
-Clean my room
-Read at least 2 chapters of New Moon
-Left4Dead
-Read 6+7 in Catcher
-Watch an episode of Weeds
I have cleaned my room. But nothing else. Unfortunately there isn't much time in a day. It's all good though. As long as I get to chill. It's all good.

So! I have decided it is time for my album reccomendation. This week, it's the Black Kids and their debut album, Partie Traumatic. It's full of happy, stop-everything-and-dance tunes. And that's a good thing! Here are my top 3:

1. I'm Making Eyes At You
Put 'Kids' by MGMT and 'Such Great Heights' by the Postal Service together and BAM! you gotta some of this. One of the mellow-er songs, I'm Making Eyes At You delivers it. It is great vocals, amazing beats, and high contrasts of voice and background. A sense of greatness and belonging included.

2. Listen to Your Body Tonight
Ahh! It makes you want to just really get up and dance. Another cool mix of an addicting beat and memorable vocals, that are great together, rather than being a contrast. The sound of a new age.

3. I'm Not Gonna Teach Your Boyfriend How to Dance With You
Who cares if you hear it all the time at American Eagle? It's some good-ness. A good mood starter. Weird combination of instruments that sound good together nonetheless! [hey! it's on my blog playlist in low-quality!] Some catchy-ness!

Well, I'll see y'all!
-Nicky B is out and WHAT-THE-FUCK!
