Tears for Fears to my date in 4 steps:
step one:
Tears for Fears, is one of those synth-pop bands from the eightys. They happened to have written a song called "Mad World." The lyrics of the song are very dark, morose, melancholic, and most of all, depressing. In comparison to the music, the lyrics definitely don't fit. It's a very clashing song. However, back to the story, so, there's this one guy, Gary Jules, who did a cover of this song.
step two:
"Renaissance Man Gary Jules" - VirginMegaMagazine.com
So there's this interesting song I've heard on MTV and over the radio a couple of months back, and I just found out who made it. It's a dark song; very very dark. Fits me well in how I feel at the moment. Maybe it's just because it's depressing. :P. Anyways its from the movie Donnie Darko which is by the way, such a good movie. I need to go out and buy it, along with renting Miracle.
step three:
donnie darko stars Jake Gyllenhaal. Who, by my standards, is a very very good-looking man. He's going to be starring next to Heath Ledger in the movie Brokeback Mountain, about two gay cowboys who are on the "DL" and their tale. He also stars in the movie The Day After Tomorrow
step four:
the day after tomorrow is the movie I saw last night with my date Alex. So, first the movie/theatre commentary. There were several points in the movie that I need to bring up. (1) Umm...the science of it dumbfounds me. (2) The irony of the situation of Americans flooding into Mexico. (3) The VP of the US being a controlling bastard, who happens to controll the POTUS. (4)JH kids shouldn't be allowed in theatres. (5)Most HS kids shouldn't be allowed into theatres. (6)Trying to find parking on a Friday night, near the Edwards, in the AV Town Centre is like trying to get me away from a bar of Toblerone; it just won't happen. (7)I am always an asshole when it comes to being on time. I, again, was late meeting up on my date.
Now for the date commentary, I think that Alex, is pretty much in the same place I am. Though I don't exactly know that for sure. To me it seems like he's a bit (a lot bit) more mature than I. Heck, I'm with uyennie, I'm still quite a bit angsty and definitely a bit highschoolish. I can still tell it. I've been through alot, but I don't feel like I've grown up a bit at all. I still feel like I belong at the kids' table. Alex on the other hand, could it be his acting?, seems to me to have things figured out a bit more. It makes me wonder, how far I've come since I've come to SUA. I can tell that I've progressed a bit, (a lot bit, yet again), but, I still do feel like a child (childish or child-like?).
As for the date itself: movie, On the Border, home. Nothing 'exciting' happened. I do feel more of a connection now to Alex. I don't know why, perhaps I always feel a connection to those people who act or are involved with the stage. I happen to have been on Tech, ya know :P...albeit for only a bit.
Don't call me sweetie...
