22 > 11:02 (saturday) if i had a tumor i'd name it marla i've got two final exams and a microphone well, had two final exams. i'm a little frightend to think what i got on my exams but i think the second one went better than the first one. studying once i got back was pretty difficult to say the least. before winter break i was in a set academic rhythm and was seemingly focused, after winter break i couldn't stay focused for more than five minutes or until i saw something shinny and got distracted. such is life. however now that i attempted to study for those exams i feel as though i might be getting back into the top notch effiency i was in at the peak of last semester and i should encourage myself to return to that level. well maybe it wasn't top notch, but it was effective. the arcade fire, dungen, camera obscura i just recently aquired the arcade fire's last album, funeral... magnific. i can see why pitchfork ranked it the best album of the year, its good stuff. dungen, also good stuff. but i'd say what i've been listening to the most lately is camera obscura's underachievers please try harder. its mellow but pretty good. initially the only songs i liked off of that album were suspended from class, keep it clean, and teenager but the rest of the songs have grown on me. i have yet to aquire more music i missed out on last semester but fully intend to do so seeing how i'm in london with a computer, no money until the 31st, and nothing to do between now and the 28th. side note: m83, aphex twin, m-ziq, death cab for cutie, the books, and the smashing pumpkins have also been on my play list, not that you care. |

the london: autumn 2004 pictures are in. minneapolis to london for the first time i had a direct flight from minneapolis to london. my expirience with northwest was quite a memorable one for the following reasons... 1. my flight was over booked and the only reason i got on the flight was because someone else opted to give up their seat for undisclosed benefits offered to him/her by the airline 2. the dc10 i flew over in must have been one of the oldest dc10s in service meaning there weren't individual monitors on the back of each seat and even worse, no individual air vents above the seats. 3. my guitar and luggage wasn't put on the plane so when i got to london gatwick all i had was my laptop and what i was wearing ...the only positive thing about my trans-atlantic journey was the end of it, the train ride home, a journey i found a lot more enjoyable coming from gatwick than when i came from heathrow. hold on i have to put my fangs in so instead of trying to adjust to gmt i've done just the opposite, i slept the daylight away. i went to sleep after i got home at 11:30am and woke up at 10:30pm. now i'm awake when nobody else is. you can just call me the count. 1 am ha ha ha ha, 2 am ha ha ha ha, 3 am ha ha ha ha. i can keep this up all night. |
