Love that smell of New CDs. *sniff*

So yeah. I just recently went out and bought a bunch of CDs.

Usually I don't buy CDs, I usually just download them or borrow a cd from a friend who has them, and if I like them, I either buy a copy of their CD, and listen to it, or I just let it clutter up my MP3 player. But a month ago, my Laptop broke down (still haven't gotten it fixed yet), and I've had to make do with no new music save for buying CDs, which is what I did.

The list of CDs that I went out and bought were:
-Hawthorne Heights' 'Fragile Future'
-Anthony Green's 'Avalon'
-Paramore's 'Riot!' as well as 'All we Know is Falling'
-The Academy is...'s 'Fast Times at Barrington High'
-Billy Talent's '666 live'
-The 'Mamma Mia!' soundtrack.

In the span of 2 days.

I've listened to a nearly all of them (save for Mamma Mia, since I saw the Movie, which was awesome, btw, and Billy Talent, since I love them, live or Not), And So far, I've been pretty happy with my purchases. Except for probably The Academy Is... simply because I have just recently opened their CD and have yet to really listen to them.

But anyways, Another reason for buying all those CDs was so I could get over stuff some shit thats going on through my life, such as that incident with my friend a month ago in August, (read my 2 previous posts for more clarification). They helped, alot, especially the Hawthorne Heights CD, who wrote that CD during and after a painful time for them (my experience is nowhere near theres, though) since it helped me come to complete terms with my pain, and that yes it will hurt, for a REALLY long time, but that I can finally forgot a bit about what happened.

On another note, watched Tropic Thunder, Epic Movie, a little offending to some people due to some of the stereotypes they bring up and the questionable scenes, but overall, a great movie. Pineapple Express, though bland, was also entertaining. I especially Like James Franco as a stoner guy. Nice change of pace compared to his epic emoness in Spiderman Two and Three. Mamma Mia, was a nice change, and I really like that movie, and it has really turned me on to musicals.

Been wanting to watch Dark Knight and The Mummy, but I've been so busy lately. At one point, I will have to go to a movie theatre that shows movies that are about to be released on DVD, (I shit you not, they play those movies up until the release date), or buy it as it goes on DVD.

Books I've read...Well, I pretty much only been reading with the Twilight Saga. I'm a real sucker for angsty, lovey dovey stories, and this series like, totally enraptures me. I'm really pissed that Stephenie Meyer's new book "Midnight Sun" had the beginning leaked, and that as a result, Stephenie Meyer has postponed the release of the book. I'm more mad that I have to wait longer to read the book, and resist the temptation of reading the leaked chapters. Not really pissed about Stephenie Meyer postponing the release of the book, because I totally understand why she did it. Just pissed that I will have to wait for an indefinite amount of time before she completes the book. (I hope to God its only a year or so.)

Yeah. So other than a sad pathetic love life (or a sad attempt to kick start one), nothing has happened so far, with my life, (nothing life altering).

Oh and by the way, For that lovable, frozen cousin of mine (you know who you are!) If your still alive, or even read the Post, please, please, pleaseeeeeeeee, give me a sign that your alive.
