I decided to start posting these lists at the end of each month. This is my top 25 most played songs on iTunes. October’s list is really indicative of what I was constantly listening to, especially those top five. Scott Simon’s version of “Umbrella” is just amazing so I listened to it a lot. Of course, there are a few Halloween-themed songs sprinkled throughout the list. And my favorite worship song is numero tres. There ya have it!

I'm watching The Father of the Bride right now, and this is the first time I have noticed the pricing of the wedding details. There are a couple of crucial scenes. When George Banks is at work, he is waiting for the cost estimate. He gets the call that it will cost $250 a head. Then, he gets the head count from his wife. 572 people. 572. That is $143,000! And his family honestly gets angry at him for having a breakdown? I just don't get it. That is just slightly less than the cost of a Georgetown 4-year education! $143,000 for a one-day event? And that isn't even really the WHOLE cost; it's basically a minimum. I mean, it's pretty apparent that this family is upper-middle class but whoa...

I think George Banks was perfectly justified in trying to cut down the guest list. That's all I'm sayin'.

21 at last! :D

I am reading a business article for my management class, and one of the co-authors is L.J. Bourgeois III. That's probably the douche-baggiest name in the world.

P.S. I do realize that douche-baggiest does not even come close to proper English.

Anna Nicole Smith died. It was unexpected and not suprising all at once, if that makes sense. Crazy...

I'm really in love with this song right now. I'm not quite sure why. I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that I usually try to do what I feel is right, and that usually means being dubbed a "non-conformist". I do, however, realize that hypocrisy is rampant among so-called individuals or non-conformists. When I listen to this song, it helps to chip away some of that unfounded irritation I have towards other people.

Admit it!
Despite your pseudo-bohemian appearance
And vaguely leftist doctrine of beliefs
You know nothing about art or sex
That you couldn’t read in any trendy New York underground fashion magazine
Prototypical non-conformist
You are a vacuous soldier of the thrift store Gestapo
You adhere to a set of standards and tastes
That appear to be determined by an unseen panel of hipster judges (bullshit)
Giving a thumbs up or thumbs down to incoming and outgoing trends and styles of music and art
Go analog baby, you’re so post-modern
You’re diving face forward into a antiquated path
It’s disgusting, its offensive, don’t stick your nose up at me

Yeah, what do you have to say for yourself
Whoah, whoah, whoah, whoah
Yeah, what do you have to say for yourself
Whoah, whoah, whoah, whoah

You spend your time sitting in circles with your friends
Pontificating to each other
Forever competing for that one moment of self-aggrandizing glory
In which you hog the intellectual spotlight
Holding dominion over the entire shallow pointless conversation
Oh, we’re not worthy
When you walk by a group of quote-unquote normal people
You chuckle to yourself patting yourself on the back as you scoff
It's the same superiority complex
Shared by the high school jocks who made your life a living hell
And makes you a slave to the competitive capitalist dogma
You spend every moment of your waking life bitching about

Yeah, what do you have to say for yourself
Whoah, whoah, whoah, whoah
And I say yeah, what do you have to say for yourself
Whoah, whoah, whoah, whoah

Cause I’m proud of my life and the things that I have done
Proud of myself and the loner I’ve become
You’re free to whine, it will not get you far
I do just fine, my car and my guitar

Proud of my life and the things that I have done
Proud of myself and the loner I’ve become
You’re free to whine, it will not get you far
I do just fine, my car and my guitar, yeah

Well let me tell you this, I am shamelessly self-involved
I spend hours in front of the mirror, making my hair elegantly disheveled
I worry about how this album will sell
Because I believe it will determine the amount of sex I will have in the future
I self medicate with drugs and alcohol to treat my extreme social anxiety

You are a faker (admit it)
You are a fraud (admit it)
Yeah, you’re living a lie (hey) living a lie (hey) you’re life is living a lie
You don’t impress me (admit it)
You don’t intimidate me (admit it)
Why don’t you bow down, get on the ground, walk this fucking plank (yeah!)

Yeah, what do you have to say for yourself
Whoah, whoah, whoah, whoah
And I say yeah (what do you..)

Proud of my life and the things that I have done
Proud of myself and the loner I’ve become
You’re free to whine, it will not get you far
I do just fine, my car and my..
Guitar, guitar go!

I drift drift drift drift drift yeah
I drift drift drift drift drift yeah oh

And I am done with this
I wanna taste the breeze of every great city
My car and my guitar
My car and my guitar
So you'll come to be, made of these, urgent unfulfilled
Oh no no no no no
When I'm dead I'll rest
When I'm dead I'll rest way still
When I'm dead I'll rest, I'll rest
When I'm dead I'll rest, I'll rest
When I'm dead I'll rest, I'll rest
When I'm dead I'll rest, I'll rest

Pete Wentz is emo's biggest tool. Just thought I'd put that out there.

Okay! Cutest.thing.ever. Watch baby panda at the National Zoo take its first steps.

I'm not really sure what, but something is wrong with my Friends page. Can somebody take a look and let me know if there is anything I can do to fix that? :\

Sammi (pinkphatty_wut) is engaged! I'm just posting to congratulate her! Yay. :)

I just had to post to congratulate Holly (gonzostar ) on her engagement! I'm so excited for her. :)

Oh, I stole the code from Sammi *blushes*, but can anybody tell me the simple coding to link other Livejournal users (where it says "gonzostar" above)? Thanks!

I'm hopping on the Harry Potter LJ-cut bandwagon: If you feel you have the need to gush about the new book and the entire plot line in your Livejournal, please keep any and all spoilers behind a cut with fair warning. I would appreciate that so much!

My sister and I just completely cracked up reading these! So true, so true. Except for number 3 in the first list...
