Fuck you, you motherfucking piece of fucking shit.
Now that I've gotten everyone's attention...
Jessica and I are making a music video to "The Perfect Drug" by Nine Inch Nails for our Media Communications class. We are shooting the video in black and white and we're going to have footage of shattered glass, splashing around in bathtubs filled with red food coloring, lonely bridges, abandoned houses, cemeteries at night, climbing up and falling down stairs, leaves, dirt, candles, and me with smudged eyeliner, tangled hair, and ripped clothing. It's going to be fanfuckingtastic. It's going to be difficult, however. We have to have a scene transition every 5 seconds as a requirement, which means we have to have at least one hundred different shots to work with. And there are many other requirements as well. But I'm still very excited.
I'm so fucking sick of the whole "she/he is a poser" deal. OK. What exactly is "posing?" Because last year I was called a "poser" because I wore a Nine Inch Nails shirt to school, which seems perfectly logical to me considering I've been a Nine Inch Nails fan since The Lost Highway came out. Evidently this person who decided to label me thought I had never heard of them or something. What would give someone that impression? And why?
Let me just clarify... I was brought into this world listening to alternative music. My favorite artist in the 2nd grade was Elton John. I remember staying home in the summer when my dad was unemployed. He would turn on the radio at nine in the morning and leave it on all day. My sister and I grew up listening to Stone Temple Pilots, Sublime, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Butthole Surfers (remember those guys?), early No Doubt, Garbage, Nine Inch Nails, and the list goes on. By age seven I knew a ton of rock songs by heart and was working on a list of my favorites. So don't fuck with me about music. I'm probably the only 11-year-old girl in the world who bought her dad ELO and David Bowie albums for Christmas. If I'm wearing a fucking band shirt, it probably fucking means I not only listen to but fucking LOVE the band.
Now the other side of the posing deal is how you dress. If you wear black and fishnets and lots of eyeliner you're a "goth." If you wear Dickies and polo shirts and sweatbands around your wrist you're "punk." If you wear Abercrombie apparel and novelty t-shirts than you're a "prep." Does this concept seem idiotic to anyone else besides me?
Well. I wear my grandpa's sweaters, band t-shirts, flared jeans and courduroys, Chucks, and a different color eyeshadow everyday. So what the fuck does that make me? A emo-ish hobo?
I don't conform to one style. I mix and match and wear whatever the hell strikes my fancy. I get ideas from my friends. But they also get ideas from me. So I guess what I'm trying to say here is that I can confidently say I am my own person.
Maybe you should consider that before you try to label someone. Especially me.
My wizard crushjunkie and I decided we are tired of being the outcast cliqueless geeks that we are, so we created our OWN cool mega-awesome ("the shit," if you will) clique. Yep. The 7:11. Think you're cool enough to be in? Well, then you'll just have to get our approval first.
In other news, filmME is the sexiest mofo I know.

Accussing people of being posers is such a high school thing to do. Actually it's even more of a middle school thing haha. When you graduate and go to college that whole thing will wear off of people.
But I thought you were emo, aren't you?
Must calm down.
