Summer = Freedom/Laziness

The best part of the summer vacation is the fact that I'm free, for once. My heart rate is down, I'm not stressing about homework or tests or, or...Latin (aka the most torturous class ever, though oddly the funniest). In Summer, I'm free to hang up in my room and just listen to music and pointlessly browse Netflix (my idea of hardcore good times). I can sit and watch a movie without being interrupted with other more "important" things.

I can sleep in and then go running and chill with some friends. I'm not locked down by the constant dreariness and impending doom of the school year. Yes, doom. I don't know, but I just feel more stressed and uncomfortable and almost miserable during the school year. I feel like Alvy Singer (from Annie Hall, for those who are uninformed):

Alvy Singer: I feel that life is divided into the horrible and the miserable. That's the two categories. The horrible are like, I don't know, terminal cases, you know, and blind people,crippled. I don't know how they get through life. It's amazing to me. And the miserable is everyone else. So you should be thankful that you're miserable, because that's very lucky, to be miserable.

Laziness is summer. Summer is freedom. Freedom is laziness. Laziness. Freedom. Summer!

Anyway, during this summer I've become lazy and free, so much so, that I've quasi-given up on blogging. This poor, neglected blog. This blog is like a dog whose neighbors leave it outside all the time. Even in the rain and snow and blistering sun. I left this blog out when it needed me. When the AMPAS decided to broaden the field to ten nominees. Where was I? I left this blog alone when I saw great, great movies like Children of Men and Dancer in the Dark. Where was I? This blog was empty during the shocking death of the King of Pop. I could have writen a few posts on that. Where was I, man?!

But whatever, it's in the past. At least, I'm happy, right? It's summer, bitches.

And so, since I've been such a dick to my blog over the past month, here is a little something I wanted to tell my blog. Let's let MJ do the talking, shall we?



Whenever you need me, I'll be there
I'll be there to protect you, with an unselfish love that respects you
Just call my name and I'll be there
