I’m unhappy to admit that my school’s glorious spring break will be over tomorrow. At 6:15, I’ll be happily (hah!) jumping out of bed . Sounds great.
Today, I’ll be running. I’m a procrastinator. I’ve waited nearly two months to even begin this monster author research project, and I’m due to give a presentation sometime this week. Yet I’m still tempted to mess with fate and just prolong it a little bit longer. Such an event would likely lead to chaos later in the week, and chaos that I am very unwilling to deal with. Aside from the author presentation, I’m also supposed to take a practice AP Euro test. It looks scary, because I don’t remember a lot of the terms… here’s hoping I don’t bomb on the final.
Changing topic before I get too stressed to think correctly. ><” Anyone who’s heard Sixx: A.M.’s album, the Heroin Diaries Soundtrack, can hopefully vouch for me. This is one of the most positive negative albums I’ve heard in awhile. Apparently, it’s based on bass guitarist/vocalist Nikki Sixx’s book “the Heroin Diaries: A Year in the Life of a Shattered Rock Star.” To my understanding, it was made to chronicle his life from about December 1986-December 1987.
It’s pretty great though, and I can sometimes be a bit of a rough critic. It’s definitely got some piercing lyrics, but that’s expected when a former drug addict recalls their turbulent lifestlye. It also has a great deal of experimentation, and almost reminds me of a Tim Burton film soundtrack, haha. It’s pretty gripping, and every song seems to have a hook. Anyways… if you want it, here it is: http://www.sendspace.com/file/t22fh6. It’s a zip file….
Now that I’ve done a review, I guess I’ll start that forsaken English project… ><

After all, we were the drug scouts of America.”
Ahh, media!
