im packing all my things.
i talked the housing people into letting me move in thursday.
this year i decided i shouldnt take so much stuff. i mean how often did i use that electric jackhammer anyway? so here i am. my room was clean for a while now its a mess. i thought for sure moving out this week would be kind of a nostalgic frenzy. i don't plan on moving back home for anymore than a few days after i leave this time. this is it. i thought for sure there'd be this desire to bring as much of my last few years with me, but surprisingly i want none of it. not that i resent it or anything. its just i am moving on. hopefully for the better.
Ever wake up one day and you have a revelation that you've grown as a person from some time in the near past? like you just noticed you're 7300 days old, not 7299. thats how i feel. this summer's end i really jumped a few hurdles that i've had in my tracks for a long time. so i guess in a way my moving out with less STUFF is a good way to describe the emotional baggage im leaving with. packing light for the longest vacation... from this day forward.
?

my floor at school is going to be so cool.
we all took the same floor. same side of the building. my room mate is one of my fraternity brothers. so i have no worries about finding people on my floor i like.
?

i'll write more when im not packing.
oh and im buying new glasses today.
i'll post a pic or something maybe.

Current Mood: tired
Current Music: Lifetime ? Boy's No Good
So i got a date to the formal thanks to marie. So that leaves only flowers for me to order today and pick up the tux today at some point. I've barely slept this whole week cuz I stay out late at my normal times but now I have to drive my brother to school every morning at 7, since my parents are in florida and wont be back til sunday.

Yesterday I was going to my parked car on a new brunswick street when i saw a latin sorority + fraternity hazing their pledges in public. so i stayed there in my car and watched the antics. they were doing scary things. unimaginable things.

Today i have a full line up.

  1. Buy a Parking Permit for School

  2. Picking up the Tuxedo and Stuff from Woodbridge

  3. Drop off a Check for Dave

  4. Lifting with Warren

  5. Going to the lottery for our meeting space for next year for a club I am co-president of at school

  6. Gotta Make Flower Arrangements for the formal

  7. Gotta go to a 3 hour class :(

  8. Then I have to go by "Take Back The Night" and support women's rights to feel safe alone on the streets at night

  9. Then i have to go to a TOGA Mixer/Party at the fraternity



Oh Yea! While i was watching all that hazing i called into WSOU and won 2 tix to see :
</b>ONELINEDRAWING

( featuring Jonah Matranga, from FAR and from NEW END ORIGINAL )

w/ K. (from IDA &
Beekeeper), Amber
Brown Vision, Dancing
Davids (Solo)</p>

But I dont know anyone who would even want to go see that show. So looks like i have a spare ticket for whoever wants it. [Act Now!]

So today i took my parents to the airport so they could head on down to florida. So now im taking care of my brother up here alone.

En route they called to let me know that the coast guard found Oscar's body today.

I think his family had the tougher ordeal. It's like 3 minutes or so that a person can go without oxygen. It took 18 long hours to find his lifeless body.

I may be going down there to the wake/funeral. not sure yet.

I haven't called carmen yet. I don't know what to say. How do you give words of comfort to a newly widowed mother? If anything i want to go down there to take care of the lil boy. get him ice cream, count to ten with him, and get him away from the depressed scene.

I wish i had taken portraits of everyone down there like i had planned. i'd have a nice photograph of Oscar that i could have given to his son framed and all nice and stuff, so he'd have a picture showing a deep pool of feeling in his fathers eyes that you just don't get from candid shots or home videos.


C'est la vie.

Current Mood: dizzy
Current Music: Hooverphonic ? Shake the Disease [depeche mode cover]

let me know what you think... really.




i just tried to donate blood and the lady couldnt find my vein so she kept ripping around inside my arm with the needle. i was afraid she would poke through the vein, through my skin on the otherside and i'd start gushing out tons of blood. ugh.
then my super blood clotted on the way into the baggy and it all stopped. so my blood and pain was useless.

but i got a cookie, juice, a bumper sticker, tee shirt, AND a swollen arm. yay nj blood center!

Feb. 24th, 2002 @ 12:00 pm interviewing jon d.
Current Mood: pleased
Current Music: Portishead - Roads
We sat there in Demarest Hall sipping on our carbonated beverages to the sounds of portishead and rolling paper burning. "This is a real change of pace," says Jon, who has been riding the tidal wave of his new life nonstop for the last six months. He manages to pound his spiked soda just in time to insist paying for the food we've ordered. He pays with a crisp fifty dollar bill, something Jon has grown accustomed to doing all too well. I had the chance to ask him a few questions about his career change, his love life, & his plans for next year over our chinese food.

njzero: So, Jon, tell me... what do you think the greatest change has been in your life since September?

Jon: If I really had to pick, I must say it's the hair.

?: The hair?! Granted I do think the shaved head is a big change, wouldn't you have to give your financial success a greater weight?

Jon: Well in a way yes. The money clip in my pocket is worth more than what I used to make in 2 weeks back in the day. I just think the money doesnt say much about me. I merely provide a service and i get a response to the demand that was there before me. If anything, the money in my pocket is a sociological statement: people are willing to trade in the materialization of their time and effort for a chance to drown out the world.

?: Do you have any slick nicknames yet?

Jon: [laughing] No, not yet. However, im thinking about "zero." no wait thats a gay name??

?: Hey! Well ANYWAY.. who holds the key to your heart these days?

Jon: I'm still waiting for Britney to call back. Til then I suppose my Becca is ok.

?: How does Rebecca feel about your new lifestyle?

Jon: She can't really complain. Most the money I come across now goes to her.

?: So do you think she goes with you because you're a swell guy or that you have lots of money and drugs?

Jon: Fuck you [Gets up and leaves room with a cloud of smoke trailing behind].

Jan. 30th, 2002 @ 03:19 pm i love this book
Current Mood: awake
Current Music: Stiff Little Fingers - 78 RPM
from The Perks of Being a WallFlower


Once on a yellow piece of paper with green lines
he wrote a poem
And he called it "Chops"
because that was the name of his dog
And that's what it was all about
And his teacher gave him an A
and a gold star
And his mother hung it on the kitchen door
and read it to his aunts
That was the year Father Tracy
took all the kids to the zoo
And he let them sing on the bus
And his little sister was born
with tiny toenails and no hair
And his mother and father kissed a lot
And the girl around the corner sent him a
Valentine signed with a row of X's
and he had to ask his father what the X's meant
And his father always tucked him in bed at night
And was always there to do it

Once on a piece of white paper with blue lines
he wrote a poem
And he called it "Autumn"
because that was the name of the season
And that's what it was all about
And his teacher gave him an A
and asked him to write more clearly
And his mother never hung it on the kitchen door
because of its new paint
And the kids told him
that Father Tracy smoked cigars
And left butts on the pews
And sometimes they would burn holes
That was the year his sister got glasses
with thick lenses and black frames
And the girl around the corner laughed
when he asked her to go see Santa Claus
And the kids told him why
his mother and father kissed a lot
And his father never tucked him in bed at night
And his father got mad
when he cried for him to do it.

Once on a paper torn from his notebook
he wrote a poem
And he called it "Innocence: A Question"
because that was the question about his girl
And that's what it was all about
And his professor gave him an A
and a strange steady look
And his mother never hung it on the kitchen door
because he never showed her
That was the year that Father Tracy died
And he forgot how the end
of the Apostle's Creed went
And he caught his sister
making out on the back porch
And his mother and father never kissed
or even talked
And the girl around the corner
wore too much makeup
That made him cough when he kissed her
but he kissed her anyway
because that was the thing to do
And at three a.m. he tucked himself into bed
his father snoring soundly

That's why on the back of a brown paper bag
he tried another poem
And he called it "Absolutely Nothing"
Because that's what it was really all about
And he gave himself an A
and a slash on each damned wrist
And he hung it on the bathroom door
because this time he didn't think
he could reach the kitchen.

i fell asleep at like 8pm last night and just got up at 8am.. i woke up in the middle of the night and then i read a book.
when i wasnt sleeping i put a highlighter's guts inside a glue bottle and glued all over my walls for the blacklight... its kinda scary in there...
i wrote "no means no YES" on the wall right by the bed but then i thought about how i could never take a girl there without having her whip out the mace, so i glued pictures onto it. my room mate hasnt noticed it yet... if he turns off the lights and the blacklight is on he'll be in for a shock.
the kid next door to me has a single! wtf. i am going to finally introduce myself to him to ask how he did it.

im taking webauthoring .. a 400 level english class now... check out my incredible work thus far... its due next week and will be a biography of ansel adams.. he's a historical enough figure right? im the only one who didnt do a president.
