Borommakot's Baby

Hm... I'm me, I guess. Halfeducated. On the far side of the sanity continuum... And I love elipses. I have bizarre thoughts. Read them.

Since my mom tried to read this thing, I locked it: username is "half" and password is "educated". Obvious, but it'll keep her prying nose out of my business.

Oh yeah, and for anybody who is wondering what my diary name and stuff like that mean: I drew "halfeducated" from Orson Scott Card's book "Shadow of the Hegemon". A character is arguing with someone she presumes to be a psychiatrist. When he admits he's only a psychologist, she says "So, how does it feel to admit you're only half-educated?"

Borommakot is the name a character in the same book takes as a pseudonym while being pursued by a psychopath. It apparently means "in the urn" or basically, dead man walking.

My favorite music:

Nirvana
comments:  I miss Kurt. *sniffle*
Silverchair
comments:  Great Nirvana ripoffs. "Frogstomp" is their best album to date.
Nine Inch Nails
comments:  Simply the god of industrial (the bastard child of techno and rock). Plus, Trent is hot.
The White Stripes
comments:  Great indie rock.
And...
comments:  The Dandy Warhols, Marilyn Manson, The Ramones, The Sex Pistols, Alice in Chains, The Velvet Underground, The Donnas (their first four albums!), The Strokes, The Clash, The Beatles, The Commitments.

The Breakfast Club
comments:  I've probably seen it upwards of 20 times.
Fight Club
comments:  One of my favorite movies, ever.
Igby Goes Down
comments:  Igby is me (if I were rich, that is). A modern-day Holden Caulfield. And no, I don't care that the comparison has been made a million times already.
And...
comments:  The Matrix, Rushmore, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead, High Fidelity, Grosse Pointe Blank, Good Will Hunting, Ghost World.

My favorite authors:

J.D. Salinger
comments:  The Catcher In the Rye speaks to me as much as any restless adolescent.
Stephen Chbosky
comments:  I cried when I read The Perks of Being a Wallflower. Even the second and third time.
Orson Scott Card
comments:  Duh. Anyone sufficiently familiar with the minutae of his 'Shadow' series will recognize the title of my diary.
Joseph Heller
comments:  Catch-22 is one of the most genius books ever. To paraphrase Heller himself, "No, I can't write a book better than Catch-22. But nobody else can, either."
And...
comments:  Terry Pratchett, Douglas Adams, Nick Hornby, Scott Adams (Dilbert guy), Irvine Welsh.
