Having the World

I owe you no explanation, but if I were to be hung for secrecy (because, apparently, this generation does not respect their privacy well enough that they even publish a good account of their rest room experience), I would happily bombard the world with detailed stories about my recent activities that might make all religious institutions doubt their respective gods.
     No, not really. If eating M&M's Minis is a sign of rebellion, then that might be possible. In this war, however, I strongly believe that the capitalists would be on my side. Well, let's not get too far. Even if it's probable in an alternate universe for a sudden shift in history just because of me eating M&Ms, it is impossible here, unless I'm a queen of a 1st world community, and terrorists put poison in my bowl of candy-coated chocolates. To assure your safety, I'm not of noble blood. I'm a commoner, just like a queen.
     Kidding aside, I am not not not a queen. My current situation allows me to imagine that I am in a certain extent though. I have nothing to do here at home but to eat, drink, take a bath, watch, send, read, play, think, and not post all of this on Instagram or Facebook. I do go out to plan an event, actualize that event, hang out with my partner, and attend an art-literature exhibit. Sometimes, when I get extra lucky, he would visit me here carrying a box of pizza, like what he did today.
     Along with my favorite pizza, he also gave me his treasured Panic! at the Disco CD, featuring selected songs from the band's first two albums performed live, and a Death Note.

He's quite persistent on reaching me, it's troublesome. I do talk to you though.
     I wasn't a P!atD fan for a long time. It wasn't even a long time ago when I started developing good pair of ears. My first exposure to my so-called good music is Vampire Weekend, then comes Regina Spektor, Elizabeth and the Catapult, Amy Winehouse, Maroon 5, and so on. Bittersweet, a bonus sound track in Vices and Virtues, is the first P!atD song I like enough to memorize, and to look for the band's earlier albums. Leir influenced me to fan-girl over the band, and Fall Out Boy. I often sing Camisado and The (Shipped) Gold Standard in the shower.

I thought that you are one of them.

     Thanks to a former classmate for introuducing to me Death Note during my freshman year in college. Yes, I was this late and I live in a cave. The series might be a factor why I chose to name myself "Apple" in school. I have no intention of using the notebook for my history class. I might use it to take note of names during a hateable author's book signing.
      After watching Liberal Arts, and having a short conversation, he went back to his temporary home. And after 3 hours from his departure, I can still not thank him enough for giving me more than some things I can blog about.
