The PARASITE (46/90)

So... Tomorrow, I'm going to go take my driver's test (finally). I know it seems weird considering that I'm 20 years old, but hey, my parents raised me wrong.

I'm really grateful for my friend Eric who is letting me borrow his car for the test. He never lets anyone drive his car, but I guess he made an exception.

Sam told me to write about parasites. So I must. Here goes. Ok. Inhale. Exhale.....

The Parasites are a pop punk band that originated in the mid-eighties and they recently released an album last year (2009) that got good reviews. I picked up that album called Solitary because I'm a punk rock nerd and felt like I needed to expand my knowledge on the amateurish sounds that come from the punk subculture. I listened to the album and thought "Hey, this is catchy. The lyrics are so simple and incorporate to real life so well!" It's a shame that I haven't listened to any of their other stuff because I can totally relate to the teenage angst that are expressed through their lyrics.

Also, I really need to share this lego model I found done by Ted

It's awesome isn't it? I liked how the model was constructed using mostly Lego Technic pieces. After I got into Bionicle, most of my lego collections started becoming more centered around Technic pieces so I would probably have to say that I feel more comfortable constructing with Technic pieces than with Lego bricks. It's a shame that I didn't get to keep most of them after my mom gave them away to my little cousins.

So Sam, am I doing it right? XD
