lady gaga, “bad romance”
(this post will be irrelevant by the end of the week ‘cause everyone will have found this mp3, but in the meantime, this is so effing catchy and i couldn’t even explain to you why i’m not terrified of it even after seeing the video. gaga isn’t just marching to the beat of her own drummer, she’s stomping along to the beat of her own twisted, twisted mind and i’m LOVING it.)

i don’t know how it happened, but i love this song. you win this round, gaga.
this is a running joke in our house. whenever one of us gets it out of our heads, the other one happens to hum it.
gaga, oh la la.

holy hell i feel old.
off to see new moon. even wearing my “team jacob” tee shirt. and i don’t care if it’s cheesy.
for the record, i have ALWAYS been team jacob. ask alli or melissa! :)

i always said that i would not end up in plattsburgh, new york.
and you can hold me to that, i will not end up there. not in the end. but i do miss it. i miss the place, not just the people (as i’ve said). i miss the people more, of course. but i miss everything. the familiarity. the comfort. the memories. i miss having people to turn to. i miss having things to do. i never felt complete in plattsburgh. i don’t feel complete in raleigh either. i don’t know if i can blame that on the places or if it’s just something internal.
i do this thing where, once something is removed from my life, i idealize it. i do it with (ex)boyfriend as soon as i break up with them (or vice versa) and i do it with places (even if i’m not thrilled with them) as soon as i leave them. it’s so easy to miss what you no longer have. so easy that i turn them into perfect things that they never were. i remove all the bad and remember only the good until i go back and remember that no matter where i go, no matter who i’m with- life is not always sunshine and lollipops.
it’s not perfect, but it’s home. :)
