Heroes
Natasha says: the other night I had this dream I found this killer set of headphones that could be plugged into anything, and everything had a song
Natasha says: that was pretty stellar
Natasha says: in the dream I plugged 'em into a treehouse and it played this ridiculous bass thing that made me wake up and dance a little
Natasha says: I like that you're in wednesday, because it means I'm speaking into the future
Natasha says: it's like I'm getting secret paper airplanes from tomorrow
Natasha says: so when you're 27 I'll be 24 and we should get together in our club house and be appropriately cynical and maybe a little optimistic.
Natasha says: and we'll have badges, so..
Natasha says: it has to be good
Natasha says: sounds great. nothing bonds people together like dying. woot

hey you, sorry i haven't talked to you for a while, we've been busy working on our songs lately. the concert was amazing, there were people singing along and asking for folkie song. so awesome, we're proud of it, too bad you're that far away though. there are a couple videos on youtube, check it out when you have the time: http://www. youtube. com/view_play_list?p=DBB39C21C8F462D1
Pki Christmas Party? I wanna goooooo. I'm inviting myself. hehe. Maria'll be in Manila on the 19th!
oh, btw...can i use "Morning..Soon" for my scriptwriting class? it's going to be a 10 minute play in tagalog, i'll use the concept--if it's alright with you. :P give my love to shinji and cabal :D
actually the beer is beer-coloured! i was going to say 'i havent seen beer' but that's a lie, i have, i was just totally slaughtered from jetlag. the last time I saw my disco they were all noise and not so awesome, disappointing. I'm good! it's really cold over here but it hasn't been as cold as it was in new york (minus four!!!!! why!!!!). I'm home in like a week and a half and I don't really want to go home yet, haha.
