well in my last post I said I had a lot riding on the next few days. good news - i got the grades I needed! back here in missouri where the temperature is consistently in the single digits. no big deal I guess.
2009 is shaping up to be one of the most memorable, both in my personal life and in the music industry. it’s only the 26th and I’ve heard quite a few amazing releases so far. to name a few: animal collective, mirah, vetiver, here we go magic, I could go on. take a listen to them I guess. nobody reads this anyways
farewell!

what a terrible time to stop posting. not sure why I didn’t post for my entire first semester but I guess that’s the way things go. had a great first semester. I have a lot riding on these next few days so I hope all of my exams go alright.
it snowed last night which is awesome. it’s 11 degrees outside but it feels like -3 (says the weather channel)
on another note, how awesome would it be to own/play one of these things!?
4 days
I move in 4 days, very strange. i’m thinking of starting a new website. i want to write a book. i want to write more reviews, interview more bands. i want to work out. i want to succeed. any suggestions?

so I saw batman again and it was even better the 2nd time. Christopher Nolan is a true genius, and I will be buying this on dvd hopefully the day it comes out. after listening to the soundtrack a few times, it was nice to hear it in the film. that’s all I’ll say about batman for now. . .
I leave in 3 weeks. I can’t believe it’s finally coming down to this. it’s surreal that I won’t be living in my home. my dad told me yesterday that I’m now a guest in his home and that I need to keep it as clean as I would in anyone elses home. I can’t say that I disagree with that, I just wasn’t expecting that so soon. pretty strange.

this is my favorite song off of why?’s last album, elephant eyelash. get’s me every time. it’s especially hitting home now with me leaving and everything. take a listen, and I hope you enjoy. . .

batman was such a good movie. listening to the soundtrack now and it’s blowing my mind. I don’t even remember the music in the film, but it’s so fitting now that I’m thinking back on it.
charles (student at fiea) recommened some new hipster hip hop to me today. stuff like wale, mickey factz etc. cool cool stuff. even though i’m not into the mixtapes ALL that much, I like it enough to listen a few times. i love the way they all dress. I would love to be a hipster hip hop man and dance and get ladies and make money.
what an easy job. watched coffee and cigarettes tonight, and it was really boring. big surprise. I thought gza and rza would make it more interesting, but I didn’t even get to the part with them in it before i turned it off.
goodnight

man, i’m a trainwreck. haha. it’s only been 2 days since I last wrote but I’m totally not feeling what I said in that. why was I so scared right then? realizations are coming about I guess in ways that I’m not expecting.
overall, i’m stoked for the adventure. you know it’s going to be big when you have no idea what is going to happen. there is only going to be a handful of changes like this in my life.
the first was from utah to florida. i wasn’t too young at the time, and the move was pretty tragic/weird. this will be much different. instead of being torn away from my friends by force and moved into a place i don’t really want to go to in the first place, I’m willingly leaving every friend I have and moving to a city that I do not know at all. it won’t be too bad - at least I don’t think it will be.
right? I like how I’m treating this like someone is reading on the other end. this is really just a lame way of saying how I feel. whoa.
whoa.

i’m always forget about this thing which isn’t healthy. i need to remind myself more. it would be nice to be seen thru for a while. HEY. these next few months are going to be crazy. almost as crazy as the last few. KK is always here for me, which is nice. i’m going to miss her tons. tons. tons.
i hadn’t even thought about it until these last few minutes and i’m actually starting to shake from the fear. what in the hell. i haven’t felt this way yet. i can’t back out now. bills have been paid.
i’m going to be a journalist. i’m going to the top journalism school. what more could i ask for?

Sometimes I wonder if I deserve all of this when some people have nothing. It’s hard to imagine that so many people live a life totally different than ours – a life of complete misery. What kind of higher power would create a social or political system like this? What kind of monster would think a world like this is “normal,” or “fine?” don’t get me wrong. . . I love thinking of things that are greater than me. I think about it all the time. But sometimes it confuses me. There is more out there than we are even remotely aware of. Civilizations and worlds beyond, and even within our galaxy. What am I even trying to say? I have no idea.

You’re an Indian giver
Cus you gave me hope
And took it right back.
You’re an Indian giver
Cus you gave me your heart
And took it right back.
You’re an Indian giver
Cus you promised me everything
And took it right back.
I’m the Indian giver now
Cus I gave you a second chance
And I took it right back.
