donkey-sama

i just came back from japanese lecture and as many of my other japanese classmates know, there is a boy in there we call donkey-sama. you may not know him intimately but i'm sure after sitting five rows in front of him or three rows behind him, you'll hear every word of his conversation with his slightly embarrassed friend. i know there's one like him in every class.

he has greasy hair,
a loud annoying deep laugh.
that's donkey-sama!

it's been a while

i wrote this one a while ago. i haven't had the time to really sit and write about something worth while lately but i thought this one was very good so here it is now, months from when it was first written. coffee and cigarettes are always the best combination for long conversations, i think.

cold night, cold coffee,
broken thoughts and broken hearts;
ashes fill my mind.

star light, star bright

every wednesday, ucla's astronomy department has a planetarium show and telescope viewing for free. i'm waiting for the griffith observatory to open but until then, this is a pretty good second. the geek in me wants to go but i always forget and no one wants to come with me. i missed one more clear night tonight. *sigh* perhaps next week... but that's what i said many a wednesday night ago.

millions of fierce stars
outnumber the lonely moon
but none glow as bright.

*wink wink*

the first line is actually something i saw from an artist being featured at giant robot recently. i really liked it and the more i looked at it, i realized that it was exactly five syllables -- the perfect line for a haiku. this one was made around that line.

wink is half a blink,
smile is a fourth a laugh,
kiss is all a kiss.

pink's

pink's is famous for it's hot dogs as well as it's lines outside. wednesday night, like always, is pink's night for me and justin and danny and eric and jay. nothing can really describe the the nacho cheese chili fries or the bacon-poli-burrito dogs or the double-poli-chili burgers but i think it's worth a haiku.

"my usual"
spicy polish dog
slathered with chili and cheese
is my heart attack.

my head hurts

i've had headaches for the past two days. i think i should go to the doctor because i can't figure where they are coming from. i'm drinking gallons of water, getting plenty of sleep, and eating normally. argh!

persistant throbbing
from a disappearing mind.
vicodin is loved.

break time

i thought it might be time to update so i wrote this one quickly. spring break was fun but as always, much too short.

party with loved ones,
being silly with best friends;
that was my spring break
