Does this still work [07 Nov 2004|08:15am] [ mood | cheerful ] [ music | Eminem :: Lose it ] Hey, just testing to see if this still works. Been a while since I've posted. More to come. -Matt (6 have* been kissed)

Been a While [02 Sep 2004|05:21pm] [ mood | optimistic ] [ music | Boxcar Racer :: I Feel So ] It's been a loong time since I've last posted, but it's time. School's started so my emotions are higher than Courtney Love is on a cold Saturday night. I've reached that point in my life where you understand exactly what needs to get done, and you know "why" things happen, but you still don't understand "why does it have to be that way"? Take this conversation for instance: bLoNdBiMbO23: HeY, my Bf aNd I HaVe nO ClAsSes 2GetHer!! :( UgLiEfRiEnd69: aww poor baby. why is he not in ur classes?? bLoNdBiMbO23: wElL I tHiNk hE tRiEs toO hArD fOr mE. hE's oLdEr tHan mE yOu knOw UgLiEfRiEnd69: aww isn't he in my younger sister's math class?? bLoNdBiMbO23: C, I tOlD u He iS aN oVeRaChiEver!! UgLiEfRiEnd69: aww babee, my sis is a freshman and your b/f is a senior...don't you see something wrong with that? Ok, so what is there not to understand? The point I'm trying to get across is this. People that don't try are worthless to society, they are the ones that end up taking MY tax dollars because they decide to be worthless all their lives. But why are they so cool in high school? The answer may surprise you. Nowadays girls have been blinded by teen issues such as negrosexuality, american idol, and Adam Brody. They don't know what reality is to them. It's like tasting poison just to "see what it's like", even though you know you're a retard, it's totally badass to try it. Think James Dean. He was headed to no place except maybe the Juice (prison for all of you who don't know the lingo). But he still got every girl that was thrown at him because he was a hardass. The trick to beating this system: be a fuckup. Don't try at anything. The less you try the more your value goes up. It works. How many times has the valedictorian been laid compaired to the piece of garbage class clown? That's what I thought. (8 have* been kissed)

Negrosexuality is Crime [06 Jun 2004|04:45pm] [ mood | annoyed ] [ music | Eminem :: Lose Yourself ] So I was in the shower last night thinking about my next big move (still haven't decided yet) and I had a random thought. Oh, and for all of my friends....I'm ok now, 100% over "it". In the Matrix (#1, not the other two cause they sucked) there is this one scene where agent smith calls humans the "cancer of the planet". Ok, I'm not here to debate if it's true or not, but I have figured out that humans are really wierd creatures. We always act as something we're not. Like take this paragraph for instance, I'm trying as hard as possible not to sound like a geek, but I just quoted the matrix. I don't think Chad Michael Murray can dig himself out of such a big hole. Anyway so back to the "Cancer of the planet" and the trying to be something we're not. We have a serious problem here in agoura: Negrosexuals. Frequently Asked Questions What is a Negrosexual? A Negrosexual a white person who acts black to such an extent that he's a homo. Where are Negrosexuals Common? Negrosexuals are common in rich white families where money is so prevelant and life is so good that one must act tough and "hardcore" just to make it. Is Negrosexuality contagious? No, but their STDs are. After listening to Petey Pablo's "Freek-A-Leek" on repeat, and listening to all of the women he's had sex with, a Negrosexual will try and conform to his standards and thus become a superior transport for an STD. Since Negrosexuals are affluent, they can afford to get treatement, making it even more difficult to spot one with an STD. What is the sure sign of a Negrosexual? Similar to AIDS, there is no sure sign of whether or not one is a Negrosexual. If one repeats the phrase "sup dawg" or "shizzle mai nizzle" in a formal conversation, it could be considered that they are in need of help. Another sign is that instead of finding pornography in their DVD player, you find a copy of 8 Mile uncensored. If his best pickup line consists of, "I love you like a fat kid loves cake", chances are he's a Negrosexual. If, while in the sack, you see small, white man condoms and he claims the store ran out of magnums, chances are he's a Negrosexual. If he calls you "baby's momma" and you're not pregnant nor a mom, he's probably a Negrosexual. These are just guidelines though. I'm a Negrosexual/I know a Negrosexual how can I help? Unfortunatly there is no cure for Negrosexuality, but all hope is not lost! Here are some ideas to help yourself or a loved one overcome Negrosexuality: Lock BET on the cable box Watch Queer Eye for the Straight Guy whenever possible. This teaches them good hygene and proper fashion. Delete KaZaA. Chances are they are getting their fix from downloading bootlegged rap mixes and uncensored hip hop Donate all "prison" style clothes. Some Negrosexuals will try and impress by dressing like Pac when he was in prison. This is a "no no" If you're a women- and you're still alive, remind him that OJ got off because he was framed. Your Negrosexual boyfriend/husband will not be so lucky. Remember the first step is always acceptance. There is no cure for Negrosexuality, only treatments. If they have problems, quote them the AA prayer that was quoted in 50 Cent's "Gotta Make it to Heaven" Lord, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change and the wisdom to know the difference. P.S. Happy Birthday Joey (16 have* been kissed)

Lahana and Lewis share ASB President [06 May 2004|08:51pm] [ mood | happy ] [ music | Freek-A-Leek :: Petey Pablo ] Taken From The Charger: " Many questions still remain unanswered after this year's Student Council elections. On April 7, AHS students gathered in the quad during nutrition and lunch to exercise their constitutional rights and vote for their favorite candidates. There were a few run-offs, and they were held on April 8. Students voted for their own class officers, and the three ASB positions, President, Vice President, and Board Representative. While all but one of the positions for next year's student council were decided by the afternoon of April 7 (all of this year's winners appear on this page), there was some question over whether ASB President will be a shared office this year. According to Matt Lahana ('05), AHS administration has decided that he and fellow junior Cayla Lewis will be sharing the position of President. However, according to Lewis, the administration is leaning in that direction, but has yet to make a final decision. ASB adviser Kimmarie Taylor and AHS Principal Larry Misel both confirmed that the two students will be sharing the office. This year, a few abnormalities occurred during the election that made the AHS administration take a closer look at the results. Misel said they were "minor inconsistencies in the election process" and emphasized that they were "nothing major." According to Misel, infractions were made, with no malicious intent, and the administration determined that the infractions where not worthy of disqualification. Lahana declined to comment on that day's events, however, he did say that he and Lewis would share the position, that he was "excited at the opportunity to work with Cayla," and that the ultimate decision for the two to share the position was made with the "best interest of the school" in mind." The only reason I post this is because I thought it was a very well written article and it's unbiased in its opinion on the issue. And plus, I wanted to show my friend(s) (basically Megan), that I got in the paper. lol. -Matt

Long Time No Update [02 May 2004|09:36pm] [ mood | ecstatic ] [ music | Sugarcult :: Memory ] Hey! I'm still alive, sorry to disappoint most of you.

Saturday Night [27 Mar 2004|09:59pm] [ mood | angry ] [ music | Incubus :: Morning View ] So I'm sitting here, Saturday Night, 9:44 PM. I'm doing pretty much everything from listening to Incubus to contemplating the cosmos. This week has been really stressful for me, and this next week will be even more stressful. I love life, nothing I can honestly with a straight-face complain about. It's funny because the things I'm upset about are so trivial and mean absolutly nothing in the scheme of life. To me though, my problems seem very real and very big; it's just embarrasing telling people the stuff I'm upset about. For instance, I'm upset/hurt about people caring about me. I love it when people care about me, but I feel embarrased also. It's almost as if I want to be self-reliant but I can't. Not sure if that makes sense, but to me it does. Oh...I wanted to let you OC fans know that Adam Brody's backyard in the show is a sound stage. I read about it in this teen magazine at Albertsons. I'm going to figure out a way for me to buy it secretly because Summer is on the cover and she's amazingly amazingly gorgeous. So gorgeous in fact, that when she goes to clean her dishes (she may be amazingly goregous, but she's still a women) the scum from the dishes just falls off. Her beauty changes the molecular mass or some other shit cause wow. She could do anything...including me. Enough about Summer, let's talk about something more important-- Being politically correct. I'm so tired of people having to be "politically correct" in order to not offend anyone. Why does our society have to be such a bunch of pussies. If we were faced in a similar WWII situation with Hitler at our doorstep we would tell Hitler to stop, and if he didn't stop we'd tell him stop again. People criticize Bush because he wants war, no they criticize him because he has balls and they don't. Hey John Kerry, here's a tip: grow some balls. When will you realize that dictators won't listen? There's a reason they're at the top, and it's not because they gave bobo to their boss. I mean Sadamm probably did give bobo to his boss, but he was an asshole dictator, as opposed to your typical G-Unit MotherFucker dictator. I've digressed, and perhaps on a different day we'll talk about being politically correct. I agree there's a line between offensive and being correct, so don't cross it. But nobody has crossed in since the 60's when we started thinking that weed brought peace...here's a free answer for you: It doesn't. Ugh...so I'll write more tomorrow because I'm tired and the girl I like still hasn't signed on....hmm, I wonder if she has a life? probably. -Matt (13 have* been kissed)

Thank You Danielle!!!! [23 Mar 2004|10:03pm] I want to thank Danielle Goldberg for redoing my entire live journal! It's awesome now, and totally not ugly to look at. Especially that picture of Summer, I asked for Adam Brody(Summer's Boyfriend) and she gives me Summer. lol I'm kidding, but isn't that picture amazing? Amazing sums up this Live Journal...Oh, and also a shoutout to overton because she was able to fix a little error in the code. So thank you to the both of you, and once again....THANK YOU DANIELLE GOLDBERG!!!! __--==Matt==--__ (14 have* been kissed)

As We Go On.... [14 Mar 2004|08:16pm] [ mood | jealous ] [ music | Jay-Z :: I Just Wanna Love U ] I'm taking a break from studying to write some stuff down and finally update. A lot's happened this week and I would like to talk about it... My g/f dumped me....which would be a problem if I had a g/f, but since I don't I guess I shouldn't talk about it (brings back bad memories (hehe laquisha)). The Dating game was badass...seriously it was really cool, except for these 2 little piece of @#@#%#$ kids in the front row. I swear that if I wasn't so buff I would have beaten them up, I don't want to hurt anyone! Plus, they weren't hardcore anything so I mean it's basically like picking on preschoolers (not that i know what that's like, but i've found if you take the candy after you kick them it works better). Want to know something that I've been pondering? Nicknames. How do we get them and why can't I think of a cool one for my friend? I mean some kids have ones that would make even Liberacci blush, but I'm talking about a hardcore XXX nickname. And by XXX I don't mean something like "bunny" or "latoya", but something totally cool. My nickname used to be Anthrax because when I got on the football field there was nobody left standing, or at least that's what I thought it meant. I believe it was Tony or Joey who opened me up to the realization that I'm "Anthrax" because I'm both white and nobody likes me. True True. Then there are some like "Meg" instead of "Megan", which is totally hott and seductive but for some reason the girl gets it lost in translation and thinks its not cool. Have you ever called those (900) numbers and have someone answer the phone with "Hey sexy, It's Megan". Nope, it's "Hey Sexy, It's Meg...and for 1.99 a minute.." you fill in the rest but the point is the same. Another thing that is beginning to piss me off is kids that think they're hardcore when the only hardcore thing they've ever done was be born. I mean seriously, look at these little kids who are like "I'm buff, do me". Nobody will do you, nobody will even think about doing you because the truth is you're wearing a longer extension "down there" than Shaniqua is on her head. There's this group of kids at my school who I'll keep nameless so they don't whither away in the honesty I'm about to lay down. So this group of kids thinks they're hardcore because they can do something nobody else can, we'll say that they play ping pong. Ping pong does not get you laid, let me repeat myself Ping Pong Does Not Get You Laid. Now I guess something was lost between what's cool and what's not cool because they still think they can get chicks. And you know what's funny? They do. It's messed up, trust me. I turn and they're with girls, and not just any girls but hott girls. It's amazing out our society goes from girls going for a "John Smith" to "J-DiZzlE". I mean I have no problems if you're cooler than me and you can get chicks, I accept that because obviously there are always going to be people with much more machismo than myself, but when you're balls haven't even dropped you should be still in the sidelines. Anyway I'll add more later, I've got more to do tonight. __--==Matt==--__ (13 have* been kissed)

I'm back [01 Mar 2004|07:41pm] [ mood | crushed ] [ music | Something Corporate - North ] Alright I'm back to attempted comedy. After a week of contemplating the naval I'm ready for action. So I went to Best Buy tonight because I wanted to buy the Chappell Show because it's pretty damn funny. Like South Park but more pro-black. But they were all out of it and so instead I bought two cds. Yea, I bought CDs. It's a sad world we live in when I purchase cds. It's so much easier to load up Bearshare and download music. But I don't support the artists and one of my friends gave me a guilty concious and so I bought them. I bought: Blink 182 - Blink 182 Something Corporate - North I want to explain though my reasons for the second choice. 1. It was less money than seeing The Passion of the Christ 2. I actually sort of kind of like their music. 3. Clay Aiken's new albumn, Ben Dover, was sold out. Ok so none of those but #2 are true (yea, like Clay Aiken would be sold out...we'd have a better chance at selling tickets to an abortion). But I do like their music and it's better to buy the cd because you support the artists. And plus they're not part of the RIAA I don't think. Next up I want to thank my friend Megan for getting a live journal. She, like most of my girls that are friends (not girlfriends), are turning more and more chick every day. It's like everyone got together and wanted to have a Renaissance of 1950 lifestyle. Well if that's the case dinner better be on the stove, you better be at my beck and call, and not only that but you better damn well never complain to me. Here are some "new generation" words: "kay" I guess with people always wanting to do less work actually do more work. "Ok" is two letters, "kay" is 3 letters. Why not just save yourself two letters and the embarrasment and just say "k". Or is that misspelled? "wifey" Never again...You know how at the end of Titanic the ship sinks? Well sink this word please. Unless you're trying to sound cute, the only context wifey is allowed in is this : "oh baby...let me, your wifey, make you dinner and massage your feet". That's service you can't get at a Texaco Station. "dude" If you're a chick, and you say "dude" . stop. You're not a surfer, even if you try you're not a surfer. I can't tell you how annoying it is when a semi-attracive to ultra-attractive girl says "duude...blah blah blah makeup blah blah manicure blah blah father my children blah blah" because no matter what she says after "dude" i'm already not paying attention. So many other things that annoy me but no time. Anyway I have lots of issues but in the words of one wiser than myself (megan) "im over it". __--==Matt==--__ P.S. Remember to watch both One Tree Hill and The OC this week. Big Episodes... (25 have* been kissed)

Serious Post [21 Feb 2004|10:16pm] [ mood | contemplative ] [ music | Garth Brooks - If Tomorrow Never Comes ] All of my posts thus far have included one form or another of attempted comedy. If you're looking for that in this one, you will not find any. Ghandi once said, "Learn as if you'll live forever, live as if you'll die tomorrow". In truth, we make plans for tomorrow. We have plans for next weekend, and we even have our college plans in mind. Somewhere we must ask ourselves somewhere inbetween living our lives and planning our future, what really matters. Each of us is capable of great achievments if we just took five minutes to peer within each day and try and find our inner selves. We perform only one iota of we're actually capable of doing because we put things off until tomorrow. But what if tomorrow never comes? That was my friends car post-9:00am. Luckily both of my friends were able to crawl out of the passenger side window and one of my friends hurt their neck and the other sprained his ankle. What if they didn't make it? What would have happened if they had unfinished business that they had put off until tomorrow. What if they never told their Mom and Dad how much they loved them despite their differences. People, make no mistake as to my message. I am not here to tell you that you should love your parents or that you should live your lives in fear of what will come next. My point is this: We Are Not Invincible Live every hour as it is your last. Something unforseen such as a car crash or heart attack could be the difference between someone knowing you love them and someone never knowing how you feel. I get lots of that BS junkmail such as "tell your friends you love them. now send this to 15 people in 5 minutes or you'll get an STD". I tell my friends how I feel about them because any moment could be my last moment. Rudyard Kipling, not by error but by device, said "...Fill the unforgiving minute with sixty seconds distance run...". Why? Because the next 60 seconds of your life could be your last. Take a breath, stand up, look around your room. Go outside and look at nature for 15 minutes. Meditate...always looking inside yourself for the people that matter most. We, as teenagers, are experiencing quite frankley the worst times of our lives. But even though they are the worst times in our lives we must still go through them and so we continue on our paths until we have achieved our next stepping stone. Some on our path will try things and experiment, quickly losing sight of their future and the effect they have on others. They do it to escape this ever-changing world of ours. But once they're finished they have to face the same exact things they left before. Sometimes while experimenting though complications occur and progress subsides. These are the times that are unforseen, "these are the times that try mens souls". Previous to this we felt we were invincible and once we find that speed bump and go off of our path we realize how valuable life is. Hopefully it's not too late at this point and usually more often than not it is. Fortunatly in the case of my friends they're ok, but how about those teenagers that went to Westlake and got into the accident and died. We Are Not Invincible.Live. (14 have* been kissed)

Fun Weekend [16 Feb 2004|10:09pm] [ mood | amused ] [ music | Clay Aiken :: The Way (I'm not joking either) ] I had an awesome weekend. I got out of the house for an unprecedented 4 hours. It was a blast. (I went to Half Time. Definitly some hotties. Especially Sean). So anyway.... I was doing some thinking and I figured out what pickup lines not to say to a freshman when you're older (Take Notes): *OMG I remember your sister, I used to sit next to her in history and I think she hated me, but she's really pretty, just doesn't dress pretty. *I'll drive you to your pediatrician appointment. *I knew you were the right one since I laid eyes on you at freshman orientation. Ok, well It took me a while to compile that list and it will grow longer. I hate the fact that this guy my friend likes is almost perfect. I can't make fun of him at all and it sucks. No seriously. I usually can find one thing that I love to make fun of and abuse it to no end. But with this guy there's nothing...0...zip...free. Free as "Roots" after the necessary mail-in rebates. I will find something some day because I need to. Otherwise I'll get too jealous and insecure about myself and then life will seriously suck instead of totally kick ass like it does now. Oh, and then I got in a fight with some people this weekend (by some people I mean a girl). Remember, I'm Matt so it obviously wasn't a very good fight. It was just like "I'm done talking about this. Good bye" and then hangup the phone. Did you actually think I was going to hit someone? HaHaHa...the only thing I hit are the books. But yea, I wish I could say because of the "fight" my life is going to end and I'm going to die. Unfortunatly I can't do that because I realize that this means basically nothing in the scheme of life and so I have better things to think about like whether or not Clay Aiken is gay or if Clay Matthews really benches 983845749lbs. with one hand or if Joey really is 17.48" long. I don't have all of the answers. But I don't pretend to either. Thanks for reading my Live Journal. And if I don't get a chance to talk to anyone the rest of my life know I love you. <3 __--==Matt==--__ (5 have* been kissed)

Just A Joke~ [10 Feb 2004|08:42pm] [ mood | happy ] [ music | Something Corporate :: Audioboxer EP ] 2 men walk into a bar and..... He's not only hung like a horse but taken ladies... ( Read more... ) (11 have* been kissed)

This Weekend.... [08 Feb 2004|09:17pm] What the hell is the 3 Doors Down music "When I'm Gone" playing in the background of the murder mystery series Cold Case? That's messed up. Anyway.... On friday I went to the basketball game (the girls game because it's better) and I met up with Sara and Lauren. We had alot of fun and I might even get my pic on her live journal. That would be badass. You know what else would be badass? F*ing a midget. Why? I don't know it would just be awesome. Actually I've heard they don't stand up to the competition. But who really is their competition at a circus? The bearded lady isn't an option cause she'd give you a rugburn while getting head and the clown isn't that great because who wants to laugh at a clown? I mean I laugh at clowns but if you're with a clown and she laughs, does that mean she's laughing at yourself, or your package? See..it's stuff like that that's too damn confusing. That's why I'm going to stick to midgets. Ok so then yesterday I cleaned the cars from 10am-5pm. It was very cool because it was like meditation for me. I dunno, something about being mexican makes me like to wash cars. I enjoyed it. Joey is hung like a horse (meaning he's 2 inches.....from the ground!!!). Anyway...he plays football, runs track, and lifts about 200lbs. with his left pinky. Don't take my word for it...see for yourself. His AIM sn is bigguyj42. Anyway thanks for reading and I was just playing about the midgets. Goodnight and have a great week! __---==Matt==---__ (2 have* been kissed)

Today [01 Feb 2004|03:28pm] [ mood | chipper ] [ music | Something Corporate - Space ] Haven't posted in a while...sorry. Life is good/bad/awesome/horrible. lol depends on when you ask me. Basically I've realized a few things about myself: I'm respected by those that matter to me Some people I wish would respect me don't I hate parties (cause I always end up listening to the radio in my truck) Slim Shady (an amazing role model (yea right)) once said, "Friends are really your enemies, with secret identities." He was very right. Friends can hurt you more than anything. I'm White That was after alot of self-reflection. Anyway, I want to say that Jamie from Oak Park is sooooo hotttttttttt. If any of my b-ball friends are reading this get me her digits cause despite me seeing her every week chances are I'll be to pussy to say anything. Oh, and I'm going to startup with my humor posts again, but I'm going to post them here. Tell me if you find them offensive so then I'll know I did a good job. J/K but I want to help all the poor/sad people laugh again. Signing Out. Oh, IM me at "ahstud4life" if you want to talk. I'll be there probably all the time so yea. __--==Matt==--__ (17 have* been kissed)

Today [25 Jan 2004|08:47pm] [ mood | lethargic ] [ music | Twista - Slow Jamz ] Today was a great day. At 9am-12pm I refereed basketball games. I got paid a pretty good amount I think. Not too sure yet (hopefully I find out Monday). After that I went to my brothers games and that was pretty cool. Both of them won. And then I had my game. Our two best players were on suspension because of some bad calls by refs yesterday. It was horrible. I was happy to the extent I got to play all 4 quarters instead of 3. I did pretty well but I hurt both of my knees. It's all good. We lost by 20 but were winning at half time. No hard feelings, I'm happy I got to play a good game. After that (well she left a message before that) I talked to Megan on the phone. It was soo cool. I hadn't talked to her in about 3 weeks on the phone. It was really neat hearing her voice and knowing she's doing well. The internet is ok to talk on, but it's way better to actually hear someone and the tones they use (if that makes any sense). So yea, that made my day/night/tomorrow morning. Tomorrow I start Psychology. I retired from Computer Science after I realized I'm not very talented at it. I gave it an honest effort and then respectfully resigned. :) Anyway that's it for right now. I'm going to figure out if I can write more or how this all works. I'm sure I have feelings somewhere I could share. But I don't feel like sharing them with the world. lol. That's what a Journal is for and I used to keep one in 9th grade. It's funny because I look at that stuff and laugh because my morals are still the same but my friends are different. They respect me now and it's really cool. Megan or Danyelle (i forgot which one i was talking to about this) is the only one other than myself who has heard stuff from it. Good times, good times. Anyway I'm going to probably go to bed in an hour or two but I still take phone calls so call me. Oh, and for all you freshman/sophomores check out http://www.tobesmarter.com because you can get help with English Vocab. Goodluck . __--==Matt==--__ (1 have* been kissed)

Basketball and Live Journal [24 Jan 2004|06:15pm] [ mood | happy ] [ music | Something Corporate - Hurricane ] So we had a basketball game today and the piece of shit refs cut the game short in the 4th quarter. I'm angry because I only got to play one quarter and believe it or not I'm better than that. lol. I can't stand this whole Live Journal thing...I have for the past three hours been trying to figure out how to customize it so it looks like Danielle Overton's . I know a whole lot about web development but I can't seem to figure this stuff out. Check out some of the stuff I've done: BeaknProductions.com LLHR-Online YESonE.org ToBeSmarter.com And I'm working on another for BeaknProduction's newest feature "Beauty In Chaos" It should be completed within the next week. (2 have* been kissed)

People Suck [24 Jan 2004|01:23pm] [ mood | pissed off ] [ music | Limp Bizkit - Break Stuff ] I'm so mad right now. Some piece of shit stole my chevy symbol from the back of my truck. I hate people so much. (been kissed)
