New Pics

Ok so really quick...

I have new pics up in the photo album from the Gym Class/Cobra show and I put half the pics back up of the ones I lost before somehow. Hopefully, these ones don't disappear, too. For some reason, both of my servers have been giving me trouble. Grrr.

And just because...

Another youtube video from the show

Now, that's enough already!

Enough of this adult crap, I wanna be a kid again.

Waiting for the train

I really have nothing spectactular to say...except that I feel really gross right now after eating somethin I shouldn't have after doing so well on this diet I'm on. I haven't caved once...but I suppose damn birthdays get u all the time. Not to mention I have this sorta-date (but not really) on monday and involves going out to eat....definitely feeling nauseous already. At least its at a vegetarian restaurant.

So yea, finally the train is here....and right now I'm sitting on the F train next to this guy who keeps looking at me and is really creepin me out. Plus, he speaks spanish and I can't understand a word he's saying...not to mention, he smells and is now picking his nose. Gewww...the downside of NYC. Uh ok, gotta look the other direction cause I don't want to acknowledge him. Ok so there's this cute asian girl sitting across from me who is falling asleep but is trying hard to stay awake. She has on this supercute army green jacket that could almost look like something Triple 5 Soul. Ooh she has on this really really pretty ring. Its pink, big, and sparkly. Hahaha way to go on detailed descriptions, Jiscil...and way to refer to myself in the 3rd person.

I actually can't believe I'm still typing here but I suppose I have nothing better to do than just sit here on the subway. I love people watching though. I love to just watch and observe. Do u ever try guessing what people's names are? It sucks cause ur really not gonna ask em what it is in the end...and sometimes when u think ur so on...it just erks u not to find out. Just another one of my weird, silly antics.

Uh...I'm getting really sleepy now and I just want my bed.

Wow this is getting really long and pointless and I'm almost at my stop so I think I'm gonna end this right here. Ahh well...peace in the middle.

Eeeerie

Ok, so I have no idea what happened to the pictures I posted up about a week ago...cause now they're gone and disappeared. I'll try putting them back up again and putting up some new ones as well.

As for this past week...not much has been going one, except work has been really crazy busy. And I'm sure by now, everyone has heard about the plane crash into a building not too far from where I live (I can actually see it if I walk outside my building). It happened yesterday, and it's so sad to hear that Yankee's pitcher, Cory Lidle was the one flying the plane. I mean, the whole thing is just sad in general and so tragic. Supposedly a woman who lives in the apartment the plane crashed into was home. It was somewhere around the 20th floor. She's so lucky to be alive. It actually got me thinking because it did happen so close to my building, and with my roommate and I living on the edge of the East River...planes and helicopters are flying by all the time. Helicopters usually come the closest and they even shine spotlights through our windows sometimes. Freaks the hell out of me when I'm not expecting it. So far, I think there's been 3 helicopter crashes along the East River this year...and they happen to be all within a matter of a couple weeks, but that was earlier this spring. It's just so scary how much anything can happen at any given moment. It really makes you put things into perspective. And not to be all creepy with a freakish analogy (like Miss KB would say)..but read yesterday's date upside down --- 10/11/06 --- ummm is that not crazy or what? I mean, I know it wasn't related to some sort of terriorism, but still...a plane crashing into a building in NYC isn't one of the most common things. With people still scarred from 9/11...it's just another thing to make you think.

Ok, I'm done now. Time to go home and watch Ryan on TV. BC football game on ESPN tonight...big game...watch it!

Birthday Bash/Afterparty & Shopping Spree

So I suppose I'll make an update. Not too much going on right now. I'm just sitting at my desk at work where I should actually be doing some work...but that can wait, right? Anyways, I'll have more pictures up tonight (hopefully). I prolly won't get the ones up from Jessica Are I's Birthday Bash/Killers Afterparty for another week or so...but I will have the pictures from Gym Class Heroes/Cobra Starship show /afterparty for you and possibly even some extra from other nights out.

So yea...last Thursday was Jessica's Bday (Happy Birthday Jessica!), and we totally celebrated all night long @ The Annex. Erica planned it carefully so that each guest was a surprise, and I must say she pulled that off well. It was a blast. IMAROBOT (?) played a tune or two (which we really didn't stay around for, but decided to go downstairs instead). Then The Killers made an appearance weaving in and out our dance party we had in the basement DJ'ed by Ultragrrrl (whom I have yet to meet) providing us with a wide aray of dance party music. Supposedly it was an afterparty for them (The Killers), but I'm still curious as to what it was "after." Anyways, Mr. Michael Opeinnheimer (aka Mike) decided to come and stick it out, as well, even after his week-long party binge. Christy and I scoped the scene all night long eyeing a specific hottie in a blue hat, but instead got repeatedly molested by some guy who obviously never got the hint after I told him twelve times to lay off. Sadly, I had to pull him aside (to spare him the embarassment...if that was even a possibility) to specifically point out exactly why we wouldn't dance with him. Let me just tell you, it takes a lot for me to pull someone aside to repremand them, but I'm not afraid to do that if I find it necessary. He was just a bit un-called for and I wanted my girls to be able to have a good time without this guy tryin to get "all up on" everyone. Note to guys: If a girl says something like A) I have a boyfriend (even if she really doesn't) or B) Don't touch me or C) I don't want to dance with you...get the hint! I, later, apologized to his friend cause I did sorta feel bad for calling him out like that...I think he was a friend of a friend, too, so I didn't want to step on any toes. But overall, I think things worked itself out okay...sometimes, guys just annoy the crap out of me...lol. We still had mucho fun, though, and Erica got her first taste of the good ol' island...she (hopefully) slept cozy on my couch before having to wake up a few hours later. I had to go into work the next morning and I lead her off the island so she got home okay cause lord knows this place can make a person feel lost. Gotta love going to work on a couple hours sleep. They always enjoy my enthusiasm I have on days like that.

But anywayyyss...last week I kinda had a shopping spree. I bought the new Saosin CD and The Oohlas debut release. Fully satisfied. Must, must go out and buy The Oohlas...they're Oohla-lovely! Hehe. I also happened to buy the movie "Gia" which I popped in Saturday afternoon for a little bit of vegging out. I still can't help but want to be a lesbian for Angelina Jolie...lol. Then...I got to buy another pair of vintage boots (my third pair this month...eep!). I also bought a bunch o' socks the other day because I looove having supercute supercomfy socks (I just hate spending money on them, but they were cheap, so all was good). Hmmm what else? Oh, I bought this really cute secretary top, and 3 really amazing necklaces that pretty much cost me my lunch and breakfast for the next three weeks...(looks like Soup to go and PB&J for me ). Overall, though, my purchases has made me quite happy (for the moment, at least...er at least until I look at my bank account). I think I'll take a break this week and give my wallet a rest.

Well, I guess that's it for now...check back tonight for pics!

Much love,
Jiscil

Oh and PS, y'all must go out and buy this "Stay Gold" hoodie that my girl, Erica, designed for Clandestine Industries. I swear, it totally rocks and not just cause she designed it, either. When I put up new pics tonight, you'll see Gabe from Cobra Starship rocking it out at the show/afterparty. Everybody loves it. Yay Erica!

NEW JiscillA.CoM!!!! & GCH/Cobra Starship

Ok ok ok....It's been a week or more since my last update, but this one's a good one. Or at least, I think so.

Sooo yea, I kinda went on hiatus for a few months...with everything, it seemed...but I'm working on getting back to my regular ol' self (not sure if that's a good thing, yet or not). Anyways, I just finished the new and improved jiscilla.com....well, sorta....lol. What I mean is, the new layout is up and running, but of course there's always bugs and still a lot of ideas in working progress. I tend to make things a little too congested and tend to overkill on ideas...so give me some feedback, let me know what you think. I'm always open to suggestions. I hope you like it, though. My last layout was really dark and this one has a much lighter approach. I've added some new pages...and deleted the unneccessary ones. I tried to make navigation easier instead of "artsy" like the last. No new pics as of yet, but most likely I will have new ones up by the end of the week (finally...I know!). And you all know how I love to promote the things I'm currently into and love to show support for people and ideas I really believe in. Sooo yea, take a look around. I got lots of stuff for ya. And that's about it for now regarding that.

As for the past week er so....not too much has been going on. The event of the week was definitely going to the Gym Class Heroes/Cobra Starship show and afterparty avec la Curbside Gang! Woot woot! Much fun was held and major feet were sacrificed all for the sake of dancing to swoontastic beats. And of course, (would you really expect any less) I got much of it on video as you can take notice below. Travis is beyond adorable and impossible to resist with his clever lyrics and silly facial expressions. For all those that don't know...Gym Class Heroes' "As Cruel As School Children" is a "must have" this season. I'm not really sure how to describe it....kind of like an indie hip-hop thing backed up by real guitars and drums? I don't know...but most of their stuff is really funny and will definitely make you want to dance with your "Clothes Off"...okay, that was really cheesy, but I couldn't help it. I believe that'll be their next single, though (super stoked). Also, I got to run into a friend I met on Warped after the show, so that's always cool. Small world! But yea, then we made an hour long hike to Black & White for the afterparty....okay, it wasn't really an hour, but poor Christy was still in her heels (I brought flip flops for the walk), so I imagine it must have felt like an hour to her. Then from there...we proceeded to dance to the wee hours of the morning (er...I made it till 4:00, at least....the other girls 6AM??? Gotta love that L train...jk). I believe we might have been the last ones standing on the dance floor, though. And I must have been insane thinking it was a good idea to go into work the next morning on only 2 hours of sleep. I basically fell asleep at my desk at least 3 times throughout the day. Overall...to sum it up...all worth it! You gotta check out GCH, though ( www.myspace.com/gymclassheroes ) and Cobra Starship, too ( www.myspace.com/cobrastarship ...yea, they do that "Snakes On A Plane" song).

Alright, well...I really should be working right now, so I better go before I get in trouble.

Hope everyone likes the new .CoM! And check out the vid below of the opening to GCH Tuesday night at The Knitting Factory. Sorry, it's a lil shaky,...I couldn't help but dance.

Much love,
Jiscilla

Can't sleep

Ahhhh...its almost 4 in the morning and I have to wake up in 3 hrs to go to work. I hate when I can't sleep. I barely ever write in here, too...so that's how u know its really bad. Even the insomniac friends I have are sleeping right now. I'm just lying in bed wide awake with my dang sidekick barely even entertaining me. Hmmm maybe I'll start reading a new book. Yeah, that's what I'll do. The Five People You Meet In Heaven...here I come. Whoa, that was lame. Ok yea...that's it now...I'ma stop. Night night!

The following post is for my dear, Crystal. To all my Marist peeps out there...we all know and love her...especially with her own little language she has...Crystal is certainly one of a kind, and I know she will appreciate this most.

Well one crazy night down in Acapulco on Spring Break, the sun was just about to rise and after a night out at El Alebrije we were all too wired to go to sleep...so I decided to do a lil story telling...or more like...a little "educating" if you will (demonstrations definitely NOT included). Well, since I usually don't tell my stories twice (they tend to lose their initial effect after the first time), I left it up to Crystal to repeat. So like all stories that get passed down...things change a bit. Needless to say, the whole name changed and basically made the story 10 times funnier than it already was....way to go Crys! I really had NO idea how you came up with that....but I couldn't believe it when the last issue of AP came to my door and there it was! I swear, I died laughing.

Anyways, my whole point in posting this was to brighten up your Friday and basically say...the weekend is here! Hope it gave y'all a good laugh, and I'm sorry to those that are sooo confused right now. To those that understand what the hell it is we're talking about...I apologize......profusely! We're really not that perverted.....okay....yes, we are.



PS....stay tuned......new Jiscilla.CoM coming soon!
