[novan]: bassists are very good with their fingers[novan]: and some of us sing backup vocals, so that means we're good with our mouths too...(~ IM chat with Novan Chang, 18, bassist)

Nin knew how much humans loved money, riches, and material things__hough he never really could understand why. The more technologically advanced the human species got, the more isolated they seemed to become, at the same time. It was alarming, how humans could spend entire lifetimes engaged in all kinds of activities, without getting any closer to knowing who they really were, inside.

I was flipping channels, watching this cheerleading program on MTV. They took a field hockey girl and __ransformed_ her into a cheerleader by the end of the show. I was just wondering: what if she liked field hockey better?

Anya looked upon Nin admirably. Having him as a partner-in-crime__f only on this one occasion, which she hoped would only be the start of something more__as more revitalizing than the cheap thrills of a cookie-cutter shallow, superficial romance, where the top priority was how beautiful a person was on the outside.

Hypocrites get offended by the truth.

She felt the cold blast from the sterile air conditioning on her bare arms and thighs, as she ambled down the center of the shopping complex's ground floor.The scene was a swirl of candy bright lights--the Victoria's Secret fuchsia signboard, signboards which lured one to purchase "confidence," or "sexual appeal," or whatever it was that was being advertised--the fluorescent lights in each store, contrasting with the shiny, black-tiled walls and eye-catching speckled marble tiles on the ground.One could lick the floor--the tiles were spotless, clean like the fake air she was breathing in, like the atoms and cells in her that were decaying in stale neglect.

You can never have too much money.

He knows how to market himself well. Nowadays, that's all that seems to count. He's rebellious in a way that appeals to people with vain, shallow taste. So of course he manipulates his audiences with the blessing of his recording company and the financial investors behind his brand.

You may be married to a star, but that doesn't mean they'll treat you like one.

It's weird, marriage. It's like this license that gives a person the legal right to control their spouse / their 'other half.

My head__l explode if I continue with this escapism.

Last night I was seriously considering whether I was a bisexual or not but I don__ think so though I__ not sure if I__ like to be and argh I don__ think there__ anything wrong with that, if you like a person, you like the person, not their genitals.

The brightest light casts the darkest shadow.

V-Day_if you need this one day in a year to show everyone else you truly care for __our loved one_ I think it__ quite stupid. I hate this commercialism. It__ all artificial, and has nothing to do with real love.

What's the whole point of being pretty on the outside when you__e so ugly on the inside?

I felt like an animal, and animals don__ know sin, do they?

Never mind, said Hachiko each day. Here I wait, for my friend who__ late. I will stay, just to walk beside you for one more day.

The human body is the best work of art.
