About the last comment, I feel I understand. I know I should be happy, but honestly I find myself crying almost constantly. I don't know what to blame it on: graduation, nostalgia, a sense of discovery, a sense of loss, a sense of...nonsense. Nothing really makes sense anymore yet everything does. It all amounts to everyone going their own way and all of us falling apart and becoming who we should. Or it amounts to nothing. The cup is either half full or empty...or maybe it's three-quarters. I don't know. Wow. I'm sorry I just wrote a sad comment. Ooops. Just wanted to say I understood.

see, my theory is this: graduation is just a catalyst for whatever is wrong with me. an excuse, if you will. i don't know. it's just sometimes, i'm upset for absolutely no reason...or possibly just a really stupid reason. and lately, instead of handling it like a quasi-adult, i just want to lay on my bed and cry. but it will soon pass and all will be well. at least, it better be.

but, thanks for understanding.

Do you have any other Ben Folds Five albums? Reinhold Messner is... incredible, but it's an album that takes a while to grow on absolutely everyone I know who has ever listened to it. Apparently there's a "love it/hate it" situation with "BFF fans" because it's so different from the first two albums... but it's so good, and there could very well be a moment, maybe a few months from now, maybe who knows when, but you'll go, "Oh, yeah, this album," and you'll put it in and it will absolutely KILL you with how assailingly poignant it is. I hope nothing I've said has in any way tampered with that possibility ( ... )

ben folds five: nope. this is first album i have picked up by him/them. i have heard the odd song here and there, and then this cool chick that i know named cameron made graduation CDs. 'still fighting it' was on there, and i REALLY liked it. then, i thought, 'well, shit, now i have to go buy something by him. i can't like random songs any longer, because i'm infatuated with this song. and now i want more.' so i went and i bought and i was happy. so far, so good. but i can totally see how it may need some germination time in the rack before i can fully appreciate it ( ... )
