3. green day
4. the white stripes
5. paramore
6. coldplay
7. groove coverage
8. meg and dia
9. the veronicas
10. within temptation
well there you go. and now for the questions:
what was the first song you heard by 6? (coldplay)
yellow. i absolutely hated it until i listened to my old c.d.s about 5 years later.
what is your favourite album by 2? (mindless self indulgence)
oh, god. either 'frankenstein girls will seem strangely sexy' or 'you'll rebel to anything.'
what is your favourite lyrics sung by 5? (paramore)
oh, uhm.
''cos everybody knows
that we can do this all alone'
how many times have you seen 4 live? (the white stripes)
don't tease me. :/ none. i wish, though.
what is your favourite song by 7? (groove coverage)
ohhh. either 'she' or 'runaway'. <3
what is a good memory involving the music of 10? (within temptation)
oh my goodness. me, zo-zo, and a bathroom. we're singing the high notes to 'angel' and she's in a stall changing and i'm hanging on an open stall door. there's nobody in there until a ninth grader walks in, stares at us, and leaves. i'm giggling just thinking about that. or later that night (or morning, so be it), 4 in the morning or was it 3? we were singing the same song, same notes, giving poison a headache. :p
is there a song by 3 that made you cry? (green day)
oh!oh! uhm. that song that jenna sang at graduation one year, makes me cry sometimes, if i listen to it at a point in time, when something's ending and i'm going to miss it a lot. or someone's leaving. but other times it makes me want to throw my arms into the air and rejoice.
what is your favourite lyric that 2 sang? (mindless self indulgence)
a tie between
'it freaks me out when i sound just like my mom.'
and
'never wanted to dance with anybody but you, wouldn't take no for an answer, you fcking btch.'
aaand
'be nice, be nice to me, don't let me go. i'm to cool for the second grade!'
<3
how did you get in to 3? (green day)
my mom. she loves green day, and she was playing 'longview', i think it was, and i asked what 'flock' meant, 'cos i had no that it was 'fuck' and she was like. 'uhm, hon. that's not the word. it's a word called 'fuck' and i'd rather you not sing along to that part...' <3 gotta love awkward family moments.
what was the first song by 1 you ever heard? (kill hannah)
kennedy. ('i wanna be a kennedehhhhh. i wanna be tall and handsommmmme. . . <3'
what is your favourite song by 4? (the white stripes)
'we are gonna be friends'. i love that song to death, i heard it on my mom's i.pod when mine was being sent to be repaired or something. maybe i just broke one or it was stolen. whatever. i borrowed her i.pod and listened to that song on repeat in barnes and noble until i got back home and put it on my computer.
how many times have you seen 9 live? (the veronicas)
never, soz.
what is a good memory you have involving 2? (mindless self indulgence)
uhm, seeing them live and watching lynette jump up and down screaming 'aggg! why won't they play that awesome song that does all 'diemuthafuckadieeeeestupidmuthaahhfuckahhh!' while we were waiting for free monsters. which was the first time i had monster. thank you m.s.i. for encouraging me to do naughty things involving throwing condoms in jackasses faces and also energy drinks. <333 i hate concerts when these idiots practically shove condoms down your throat. that and cigs. ahh, damn you all.
is there a song by 8 that makes you sad?
'monster' makes me incredibly melancholy. i love it, though. a lot of their music makes me wallow in my memories and be a weirdo. :/ well, lets me, rather. <3
what is your favourite album by 5? (paramore)
all we know is falling, but i loved 'riot' to death. but no cigar, soz.
what is your favourite lyric that 3 has played?(green day)
'it's something unpredictable but in the end it's right... i hope you had the time of your life.'
what is your favourite song of 1?(kill hannah)
'love you to death'. or 'lips like morphine' 'cos it's sexy. <3
what is your favourite song of 10? (within temptation)
'restless' which i think they preform with evanescence. that's what limewire says. or 'see who i am.'
how many times have you seen 8 live? (meg and dia)
once. :/ one of them was sick, though. took away from the lovely sound.
what is your favourite album of 1? (kill hannah)
'for never and ever.'
what is a great memory you have considering 9? (the veronicas)
discovering them right after ty and poison's breakup. the song secret, it's hilariously accurate. sort of not at all. but it's accurate now. and 'take me on the floor' just makes me want to dance around.
what was the first song you heard by 8? (meg and dia)
monster, courtesy of kenzie. <3
what is your favourite cover by 2? (mindless self indulgence)
i know of none.
since this is the new computer with new records and no records of my 500 plays of green day, it's not entirely accurate. pink floyd and linkin park and the doors would be on there.
and that stupid 'crushed' song. :/

bookskating
haaah, again.
more fun in the ex-plore room.
:3
see, i don't know who started it.
it was either c.d., j.i., or the narcissist.
but one of them, whoever it may be, grabbed a science book.
he threw it onto the ground.
then he jumped onto it and slid across the room.
then poison and zo-zo and blitz tried it.
it's easy.
c.d. jumped off a chair, threw off his book, and tried to slide on it, but it failed.
i told him i'd give him a dollar if he managed it.
he tried harder, but still didn't make it.
and the narcissist and j.i. jumped over a stool (a high stool, not a step-stool), flew onto their books, and slid.
oh, and then a supervisor lady came right up the window and almost saw me, but i dropped to my knees and slid on my knees.
then proceeded to fall off of the book.
:)
so then j.i. tried it and fell on his face.
so did zo-zo.
blitz went for two books at once, too.
and then she wiped out.
a lot, in fact.
but when a teacher came in and told us to do something 'productive', i was on the floor after being wiped out,
zo-zo was in front of her text book, not on it,
j.i. was sliding around, and poison was doing the same as zo-zo.
c.d. and the narcissist had left already.
but there you go.
bookskating.
wear rubber soled shoes,
go on a carpet,
plop down a hardcover schoolbook,
and voila!
fun for all!

haaahahh.
we're kind of stupid.
okayyy, i'll elaborate.
m., poison, zo-zo, numberr3 (not a typo), blitz, and j.g. were in the ex-plore room, and, just saying.
the room is pretty frikkin' big.
it's like two living rooms mashed together to create one room.
and there were only the six of us there.
the narcissist .was. there.
but he left, and shortly the remaining six of us were just hanging out.
j.g. blasting his 'mmmn, me so horny!' ringtone, leaning against a wall.
numberr3 sitting on a chair,
zo-zo on a stack of chairs,
blitz sitting randomly on the floor,
and m. and poison sitting against the wall. m. was dancing to j.g.'s ringtone.
and occasionally singing.
oh, m., you amusing chickie, you. <3
uhm, yeah.
and time passed and j.g. lay down by the door,
i had my head resting on m.'s legs,
zo-zo had her head on the small of my back,
and numberr3 was resting his head on m.'s leg.
and of course people had to walk in.
first, our principal, who mentioned that the room was huge and we had all this space...
i said i was agoraphobic, so he laughed and left.
and then
oh lord
our
uhm
math teacher came in.
and understand,
if you know my father,
he's a hell of a lot like him.
sarcastic, mean when he's angry, and bemused by our idiocy.
he just kind of stared at us and left.
and we all convulsed with laughter.
we talked and were random and silly, which was good fun.
ahhh, life and its simple joys. <3

down theeee sickness and christmas songs
yeah, i'm sick. -gagcoughhacksneezeexplode-
:| it's no fun, but imma tell you what's worse.
chorus.
so you may know, i'm jewish.
well.
jewish-agnostic.
but you get the point.
and nobody knows the real story about (c)hanuk(k)a(h).
we'll call it hanukkah for now, because writing that gets annoying.
here's the first fact; it is not a holiday.
it is merely a celebration of religious freedom.
.not. that the sacred oil lasted for eight days.
maybe it happened, maybe it didn't, but in judaism, it really isn't important.
well. sort of.
now here's the story.
the maccabees fought for their right to practice judaism in the fall/winter time period.
there is a holiday around that time, sukkot (for lack of a better english spelling, sorry).
it is a fall harvest holiday, and lasts for eight days.
they missed this holiday during their battles (which they won, by the way).
so after this, is was what we now think of as hanukkah time,
and they wanted to celebrate sukkot, the holiday that they missed.
so another celebration was created, a celebration of religious freedom and overthrowing the baddies. <3
but they had a new group of people who tolerated their religious beliefs move in.
now, they didn't want to scare these people off by having a celebration about overthrowing an army.
so whenever a jew was asked
'so, why're you spinning them dreyyy-dellllls? and lightin' cannndelllllls?!'
'oh! uhm. uhm. it was a miracle. uhm. the oil we had! it lasted for eight days! weirdright? omg! kawinkidink!'
'okeedokee.'
a little better than
'so whut up wit' dem candelllllls?'
'oh, we overthrew a huge army because they disagreed with us. -cracks knuckles- got a problem wid dat?'
'aghghhhh! wtf???!!'
exactly.
so they story was created,
and it is still told today, especially by a lot of orthodox jews.
so there you go.
you know about hanukkah.
and now that you understand the significance of it, and why it seems a little more important
(though it is only about gifts because of christmas)
you can understand this second thing.
in chorus, we finally get to sing a hanukkah song.
yays!
right?
no.
not really.
all it's about is lights!
and cold weather!
and family!
sure, family is important. i mean, there's a message there.
but what about religious freedom?
one could even say something about the damn oil!
goddammit. >:(
and then we have a compilation song, for the three major winter holidays here.
x.mas, hanukkah, and kwanzaa.
yay, riiight?
equality!
political correctness!
f.c.c. approved!
no.
here are the lines for kwanzaa
'kwanzaa is a time for familllyyyy and liiiiighhhhts'
and hanukkah
'hanukkah is a time for familyyyyy and canddddlllllesss!'
and finally, christmas
'whoop whoop! a holy king was born today!'
yeah, so wonderful for us non-christians here.
i get god, okay?
i just don't get jesus.
i don't want to sing something i don't believe!
it would make me feel a little better if the hanukkah or--god forbid-- kwanzaa bits
had a little
fucking
information on the basis of the holiday?
everyone, christian or not,
knows
what
christmas is about.
hell!
it's in the name!
but hanukkah? kwanzaa?
nobody
knows.
one should .tell. people.
one should be .edjoocated.
or maybe say that goddamn christmas is a holiday for
'familllyyyyy and liiiiggghttttssss!!!'
that'd make me feel better.
a little.
give me a little equality here!
i love christmas, really.
don't get me wrong.
(i know, i know, i'm jewish, i should like christmas, ahhhnoes!)
it's a happy time,
though usually for the wrong reasons.
i like the christmas spirit,
i like the snow
and the lights
and how happy people are.
except scrooges, who are cool in their own right.
but just please
please
please
remember.
there are other holidays that people want to celebrate.
the people who especially need to remember this are the damn songwriters.
give me my hanukkah celebration!!
and give me gifts! those i appreciate, too! <3
even if you fuck up and say merry christmas, i dun care. <33

:| it's no fun, but imma tell you what's worse.
chorus.
so you may know, i'm jewish.
well.
jewish-agnostic.
but you get the point.
and nobody knows the real story about (c)hanuk(k)a(h).
we'll call it hanukkah for now, because writing that gets annoying.
here's the first fact; it is not a holiday.
it is merely a celebration of religious freedom.
.not. that the sacred oil lasted for eight days.
maybe it happened, maybe it didn't, but in judaism, it really isn't important.
well. sort of.
now here's the story.
the maccabees fought for their right to practice judaism in the fall/winter time period.
there is a holiday around that time, sukkot (for lack of a better english spelling, sorry).
it is a fall harvest holiday, and lasts for eight days.
they missed this holiday during their battles (which they won, by the way).
so after this, is was what we now think of as hanukkah time,
and they wanted to celebrate sukkot, the holiday that they missed.
so another celebration was created, a celebration of religious freedom and overthrowing the baddies. <3
but they had a new group of people who tolerated their religious beliefs move in.
now, they didn't want to scare these people off by having a celebration about overthrowing an army.
so whenever a jew was asked
'so, why're you spinning them dreyyy-dellllls? and lightin' cannndelllllls?!'
'oh! uhm. uhm. it was a miracle. uhm. the oil we had! it lasted for eight days! weirdright? omg! kawinkidink!'
'okeedokee.'
a little better than
'so whut up wit' dem candelllllls?'
'oh, we overthrew a huge army because they disagreed with us. -cracks knuckles- got a problem wid dat?'
'aghghhhh! wtf???!!'
exactly.
so they story was created,
and it is still told today, especially by a lot of orthodox jews.
so there you go.
you know about hanukkah.
and now that you understand the significance of it, and why it seems a little more important
(though it is only about gifts because of christmas)
you can understand this second thing.
in chorus, we finally get to sing a hanukkah song.
yays!
right?
no.
not really.
all it's about is lights!
and cold weather!
and family!

all hallowe's eve
so it was number 3, mattia, mp3-boi, the narcissist, zo-zo, and blitz at this party thing.
mattia came later, so the first few events, she will be left out of, just for your information.
but basically, blitz and zo-zo worked on the play and acting silly until the guys got there, blahblahblah,
then we went into the backyard and acted silly.
zo-zo was swinging, mp3-boi was attempting to get on the swinging-gymnastic bar thing, the narcissist was jumping on the mini-trampoline, (so was blitz and later several others) and number 3 was scaring the dog. :3 later joined by mp3-boi and the narcissist.
mp3-boi and blitz made smalltalk on the teeter-totter. thingy.
and then we did the strangest thing; we managed to fit all five of us on zo-zo's roof. i love it, already, 'cos i've been up there. same with zo-zo, but the guys were so freaked. x3
we listened to ‘walking on sunshine’ and some classic rock (pink floyd, the doors), and alton’s claim of my ‘anthem’, ‘i kissed a girl.’
number 3 liked it at the end, and so did the narcissist. he understood the roof method of relaxation. i think mp3-boi was a bit freaked out, though. :p
we did go trick or treating, for the last time. :) but then zo-zo's dog, koko (spelling's off, i know) escaped the house.
so we all went hunting for him. (long story short, we left for three hours and basically couldn't find him. but we'll get back to that. ;3)
and the narcissist claims that i'm 'too social' on halloween.
because i hugged a 'creeper' (one of the people dressed in black that jumps up and scares the sht out of you), and i patted all of the fake skeletons on the head.
okay. so it’s a little weird. but…. it was fun! ☺
hugs are the sht.
and I scared the poor narcissist by swinging at a 180ยบ angle, like sideways. above the ground. (we were in one of those mini-twin swings. long story.
and then mattia came, and we were off again to look for koko.
with fail-producing results, but whatever.
so with heavy hearts and little candy, because we didn’t trick or treat too much (last year, ohnoes!), we headed to the backyard again and just talked. zo-zo was devastated, but number 3 wasn’t really paying attention.
he thought he heard something; a bell.
so mp3-boi, zo-zo, and number 3 ran out of the yard, the narcissist, blitz, and mattia following, and we looked around the next door neighbor’s yard.
so we’d searched everywhere but the garden (i don’t like to trod on people’s crops), and didn’t find anything.
but, zo-zo was so sad. ): so at the risk of being yelled at by the neighbors, zo-zo and blitz. the others, except mp3-boi, who probably didn’t want to go in their garden, either, had started to leave, and blitz saw something that looked rather like an overturned (very small) shopping cart.
it was a raccoon trap.
zo-zo looked down and saw koko; we let her out, and figured out that he had walked into the trap, and was stuck there for about four hours.
praise the F.U.N.K.!!
but, relieved, we went back on the roof for a few minutes, talked, and, uh, had a contest.
between me and the narcissist, but mp3-boi, uh, helped.
see now, the narcissist, he’s got a real talent when it comes to moaning. like a girl.
as in, talent enough to be on some sort of pr0n-commerical.
so, ah, we held a contest to see what he would sound like next to a real girl moaning.
blitz was the lucky contestant.
:| and zo-zo recorded us, for future, uh, prosperity.
and though we sound exactly alike (which is creepy but hilarious), the narcissist won because he added some nice touches. (‘oh! mm. so de-li-cious!’ and in a guy voice ‘OH, YEAH. YES.’)
but it was awesome, the whole night. except losing koko. but that let us walk around and talk.
blissfully wonderful, some words that I haven’t agreed with in a while.
thank you fellow F.U.N.K. enthusiasts for the fabulous night. hope yours was great, too.
