Ahh how I do so love the hols...and I never thought that I'd say that I'm ready and willing to go back to school...but I am. I just want to get it all over and done with, I guess. *anyway* >okay. see the matrix. just see it. man! I get people instructing me to see it...saying it's amazingly fantastic....and then I get others saying it's oookay..."good 2 mins here, good 2 mins there, but I wouldn't recommend it". Hrm. Keanu Reeves doesn't exactly tickle my fancy either. whatever (and wherever) my fancy may be. >got my self a copy of the army single, now firstly I just want to say >WHAT HAPPENED TO THE BFF FONT?!!!!!! I am deeply attached to that >font, it is part of my bff consciousness and they cant go and fucking >change it rant rant rant I'm wid ya sista! I love that font..and it doesn't seem like a real bit o'BF5 merchandise without it. *sigh* Another thing that irks me about the single is one particular song - Leather Jacket. In those chordy parts...there are two 'chords' that sound really off. It's as if they're 7ths or augmented 2nds or *something* I haven't exactly worked out what it is though...hrm...maybe one of you more musical types have worked it out. >this strumming business, do you have to use the back of your hand, coz >it bloody well hurts my middle finger. bit o chapping there. Hrmm...well *I* use the part of my hand where the nail is...the bit before the bendy bit. haheheeh...you know what I mean? The bit where the nail is...up to the bend. Man...I'm great at describing :P I'm a self taught guitarist...so I am probably wrong. But yeah. (: Alternatively you can use a pick. >is D a hard chord for other people to play or is it just me who finds >it an icky one to change to quickly. after 4 or so years, I've kinda >wondered about that... D was the first chord I learnt(along with G and A)...so it's easiest for me to play. But keep practicing! or is it practising? >I've figured out i may be able to go to the melbourne bff shows, but >miss the sydney ones... oooh...Yay! I'm a melbournite...and some of us are meeting up beforehand and stuff. (But seeing as you're a teacher..I'm not sure we'd want you around :P ) Oooooooooh guess what?!? some random bad song came on JJJ the other night, so I started 'surfin' the stations looking for something good...and lo and behold...Let Down (Radiohead) was on. So of course, I listened to that...and after was Belle and Sebastian! I was SO stoked...it was amazing! After The Boy With The Arab Strap was Pulp's 'Babies' and then I just had to call the station. This girl picked up, and man...she was more excited than I was because no one had ever called the station before. hehehe..it was so cool...and she owns heaps of Belle and Sebastian stuff...and Pulp stuff...and Ash stuff...and Julianna Hatfield stuff. I think she's my soul mate :P or my music mate or *something*. Anyway...she's invited me to help her DJ the show next week - the studio's only 5 mins walk from my house..and I'm so excited :D So yeah, and stuff...

Well, I am now officially the General Manager of KSCR for 1999-2000. how do you like them apples? Which means I'll be at CMJ in September so Stacy, John and Leigh... we'll tear shit up! sound like a plan? rock. in other news, i saw 'Go' and loved it and saw 'Idle Hands' and recoiled in horror because it SUCKED so terribly much. when it hits theatres, stay the hell away. it blows. KSCR's anti-springfest event on campus yesterday was a success. especially since the actual Spingfest was a total disaster. lenny Kravitz was supposed to headline and he backed out on thursday night. ha! the program Board, who put it on, all have their heads up their asses. they made Goldfinger the headliners when they also had Mix Master Mike on the bill. i-d-i-o-t-s. i've got pasta on the stove to attend to.. so i must go. ~Courtney The Sultraness of Swing "Dear Diary, today my heart swelled when Agent Scully talked to me about spontaneous combustion." - -- ************* ICQ: 24901402 AOL IM: CourtSpork Laugh until you wet yourself; read The Shrubbery. http://www.theshrubbery.prohosting.com Listen to my radio show, "Swing and the Single Girl" every Tuesday night from 12-4am PST live in Real Audio at http://kscr.usc.edu. ************* ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 11 Apr 1999 23:01:32 -0700 (PDT) From: "Jordan W."
