Heroes
I admire a handful of people, but I don't really 'heroize' them.
Who I'd like to meet: People who can make my life better by knowing them... perhaps it could work both ways. (if you're a "proud bitch" or otherwise have glitter covering over 75% of your myspace profile, we probably have little to talk about..)
...oh. and those who dance like Karen O.
(If you are in fact: Emily Haines, Laetitia Sadier, Karen Orzolek, or maybe even Shirley Manson, you can skip the formalities and just directly ask me for my address.. I will not say no)
what?! 'mon copine' means my friend, or my french teacher was sorely under-educated. or does that say something about the board of education's screening process...?
and i think everyone is striving to hit their ambitious stride, as you so put it, at every point in their lives. i think it's because we're genetically lazy. (honestly, i don't know what god was thinking when he made sloth a sin. i think it's more of a lifestyle choice) :P
and don't pick the violin (i know this from experience.) try the piano. you get more street cred, i'm told.
Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, touring the United States. They're going to be in Chicago, which, as you may know, is near our humble state. You like them, right? I seem to recollect that, but if not, disregard the ****IMPORTANT NEWS BULLETIN**** about their tour. Hope all is well!
