home = love (or: the one in which banui is irrationally hyper)

Am back, and tireder than I can remember being. Blimey, am I ever tired. I think I may have had four or five hours of sleep today, and that counts sleeping on the aeroplane and the car from Pittsburgh to my town. (Yes, I just typed 'aeroplane'. Deal with it.) I smell of sweat and sunscreen, and I have more songs stuck in my head than usual, thanks to my darlingest [personal profile] timetakestime, who burned me a travel mix and an album by the Like; I have yet to listen to the latter because I need uninterrupted quiet to do so. She is absolutely the spiffingest. She let me listen to her iPod and gave me T.S. Eliot for my birthday and was very, very snarky in a charming sort of way (rather, the charm belied Teh Ebilness). And she is shorter than me. HAHAHAHA. (I thought I remembered she had said she was taller, but this may have been two or three years ago and I may have grown since then, or possbly she has Shrunk, which sounds awkward, but sometimes laundry detergent does funny things to you if you don't wash your clothes properly; Frondo told me this.)

I have returned home to the Strange Relations, but they are now gone, and I am exhausted (yes, again), and I want to listen to my music and sleeeeep, and then try to sort my thoughts into some kind of vague coherency, which will probably never happen, especially if my sentences keep going on and on and on like periods were suddenly wiped off of the earth by a giant eraser and we are all doomed to have our sentences trail on and on and on into the sunset and who knows where else and yes this is the way I get when I'm sleepy and that includes the no punctuation part and I really wanted to hyphenate that but I didn't because I am too sleepy for hyphens. I had a cinnamon roll this morning.

Also: Eisley's new video for 'Memories'? Abso-bloody-lutely brilliant. Everything an Eisley video should be and hasn't been until now. Ohmysweetword. Shiny. *is still a cinematography geek like whoa* Yeah, they finally got the whimsical video to match the song, and I Am In Love. 

And I read The Importance of Being Earnest on the plane for the umpteenth time, and one of my British history books is in and my Latin course is in and if it weren't for Mathemetics and Chemistry I would totally start school right now on my own iniciative, a word which it is too late at night for me to spell. (Actually, it is only about ten thirty, but as I said, I have had about five hours of sleep, at the most.) Next year will be better, because although I will have to study American Government rather than history, which I am not exactly ecstatic about, I will also Never Have To Do Lab Science Again. Ever. Which means--psycology! HAHAHA. Er. I mean--something very, very innocent, benign, and unthreatening, and ohmyword, I think I have an internet high; I should go to bed with books and NO ONE MAKING SLEEP NOISES IN THE ROOM and not having to wake up early after having worked hard half the day and gone to bed late. I am probably terrifying everyone badly right now. I SHOULD GO TO BED AND LEAVE HARRY'S CAPSLOCK ALONE.

BEFORE SOMEONE HAS TO DRAG ME.

!!!!!!!!

Wow. That video is incredible.

I love you. I missed you. I so want to hear about the trip in full detail when we next speak.

And I need so much music from you, Miss High Speed, that it's barely humourous.

I love you.

Wait - she let you listen to Joan? Pfft. She didn't even bring Joan when I saw her, even though I had Joan's counterpart. -mutters-

*giggles* Because my mother is fantastically lazy, we still don't have high speed on the main computer, which is where all of my music files are. I also need to convert them to mp3s for non-iTunes users like [livejournal.com profile] lady_moriel, at least the ones I plan to post here. But yes, there will be music soon, because I want to share my slightly mad tastes with everyone so very, very much that I'm absolutely bursting at the seams.

That's a pretty vid. I've been meaning to check out Eisley, is the rest of their music as good?

[identity profile] faeriemaiden.livejournal.com 2006-07-30 10:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Possibly better. Room Noises is, so far, the only album I've ever listened to and loved all the songs almost equally. There's usually at least one so-so song on an album, but Eisley is too brilliant for that. (And they're obsessed with Tolkien and Lewis and Rowling, which really ups the awesomeness factor. Unfortunately, there is nothing specificly related in their songs, although I kind of think wizarding music might sound something like them. Agh. Must not take that thought any further, or I'll have another conspiracy theory. *ducks under desk*)

Sounds like you had a good time. (Or, at least, getting home was good.) :)

Can't wait to hear more!

Well I certainly hope that you enjoyed your trip other than it being the fact that it was tiresome! And... aeroplane... [tries to say it] Aeroplane... Aeroplane-Aeroplane.. Hmmm.

I love cinnamon rolls! =D Well.. the ones that aren't hard as a rock.

OMG MEMORIES VIDEO SOOOOOOOOO GORRRRGGEEEEOOOUUUSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!

I do wish they would have shown more facial emotion though. It's such an emotional song, it would have been nice to see a little more of that come through.

I'm glad you're back. Irony upon ironies, you, [livejournal.com profile] vanillapudding5, and [livejournal.com profile] seagreenish were all gone at the same time. I was very lonely.

[identity profile] faeriemaiden.livejournal.com 2006-08-01 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I think I would have liked to have gotten a little more facial emotion--or Sherri and Stacy singing together. But Garron was in it, and Garron is SO CWOOT. *pats adoringly* I need to snag some icons really, really badly, and OMG I want them to make all of their songs into videos like this, and that means remaking the other music videos, too, because they were kind of dull.

[livejournal.com profile] lady_moriel is gone, too. I am lonely. :p (At least it's not like last year, when I left for holiday, came back, and then she left. Or maybe it was t'other way 'round. In any case, it was very bothersome.)

[identity profile] ressie-noldo.livejournal.com 2006-07-31 01:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Eeeee at video. I liked the song quite a lot when I first heard it, and the video is very shiny indeed. *loves*

Also? Having songs stuck in one's head = not pleasant. Especially not when one of them is ABBA, another is a bit of a Mozart symphony, and another is some Indian classical stuff. So I really have no idea how you are surviving. :o

o.O I get songs stuck in my head weirdly so that they all run together into some sort of twisted mega-song. The worst part is that they are usually very awful country songs which I have had the misfortune of being exposed to (not by my family, thank goodness; they generally have a good idea of things--I just seem to run into the muck EVERYWHERE). And then they all meld together into the Ultimate Evil and I have to blare things out of my headphones very loudly for a long time until they go away and LEAVE ME ALONE.
