Working I'm Working Warning It's a Rant

So I am so far behind due to past illnesses, that I now have an overabundance of makeup work to do. This would have been ok if it weren't for the fact that I was supposed to go to Virginia this weekend. I am so screwed! Not only did I forget my poem rewrites in my apartment, but I forgot my rough draft as well. So I am now sitting here at my job unable to leave and go get my hw and wasting valuable time. All I will be able to do is type up my already written hw. This is just horrible. Not to mention that I am also behind in painting and can't start on my new piece until my roommate gets back so I can photograph her. Plus my apartment got written for Residential vagrancy. I have to ask, can it get any worse? To give you all something interesting to think about, here is the music that I have been obsessing over as well as the inspiration for my newest art piece.

Thanks and goodnight!

Work Work

So I know its been forever since I have posted, but the start of school, plus illness has made it difficult to post. But, I am Back! I Have had a lot of time to work on my play/ book. I wrote the first seven chapters or scenes based on a dream I had. There is a lot of reworking thats needs to occur, but so far its looking like it could be a good thing. Wish me luck!

YEah yeah yeah

ok so I realize it has been over a month since I have posted anything, and all I can say is oh well. I am preparing to go to France in the spring, and it is much more work than I anticipated. I am in the middle of french lessons/ courses, french flashcards, practice CLEP French exams, practice AP French exams, and budget sheets all in the hopes of being ready come January. Alas, it is easier said than done. Well, I got to get back to work so see ya!

Well well well....

I don't really know what to say. I have been highly neglectful when it comes to my blog. I think its because of finals, and final projects, that sort of thing has been overwhelming my mind. As far as interesting music, I have to say that my buddy and pal Future the MC has seriously overdone himself this time. His new EP is not only free, but it is his best work yet. The music just speaks to me. lol I hope it will to you too. Here's his blog: futurethemc.blogspot.com

Anyways, I have come to a conclusion, I am going to be a lawyer. Because of that, I am also now going to write two blogs instead of one. I also feel that in order to be the best future law student I can be, I should procrastinate twice as much! So following that line of thought, I have also decided to post at least twice a week on both blogs. Therefore, the very few of you that will be reading this will have to suffer through inane comments that even longer in length and twice as odd.
See YA!

New Discovery!

Ok so this might not be a newbie to some of you, but for me it is. k.s. Rhoads is the new thing going on around Nashville. He is a part of the area's Ten out of Tenn group, and boy does he hold his own amongst those indie giants (like Erin McCarley and Katie Herzig). Here is a prime example of his musical talents:

Where Is Ben Folds?

Ok, so as previously stated, I am an avid Ben Folds fan. Not only have I been to four of his shows, I frequent (not on purpose) many of his stomping grounds. I have all his albums and know where his house is.
I am not a stalker though. I know where his house is purely because my friend Hbomb's sister stalked him when she was in high school, and I live off of his street. I attend Belmont, I can't help but know him and love him. Anyways so the reason behind my extremely unclever "where is waldo" reference, is because of this. Not only do I constantly run into Ben Folds outside of a concert arena, but I did today twice in one day at two different places with two parts of his family. I don't really know how I manage it, but I have run into Ben at my two favorite hw places, 21st avenue starbucks and fido in hvillage. I have run into Ben at Fido before, and when I say run, I mean literally run into him. haha
I also know that his kids go to USN which is down the street from starbucks, I suppose it was only a matter of time before I ran into him here. Still, its really weird people go their entire lives without running into anyone famous, and I run into people all the time. And again, I didn't stalk him the reason I know that his kids go to USN, is simply because my brother went there, as did a few of my friends, and my friend ali found out through a high school literary conference. What made today's encounter even funnier was that I was listening to Hiroshima as he walked in, how ironic is that? lol It made my horrible day a little bit better let me tell you.

Well moving on to slightly more interesting topics, todays artwork is a piece by Vermeer a painter from the renaissance, who constantly painted people at a window. I had to do a project on him in 2-D design, and its only fair that you all are exposed to him as well.

And just cause, I will post a wonderful clip of a limited release Ben Folds Five Song.

Just so you know, the countdown to Death Cab for Cutie at Ryman auditorium is on, May 4th people!!!

I know this turned into a music/ art blog, but whatevs

So, easter break is over. That is the last break for the semester, until school is out. Oh where oh where has the time gone? Omg! well anyways back to my extraordinarily interesting blog. I subscribe to teen girl magazines. Yeah I admit, seventeen, teen vogue, cosmo girl, elle girl, all of them. Of course, now I subcribe to just seventeen and teen vogue, until I get bored or my subcription runs out, whichever happens first ;). Seventeen is kinda sad, but teen vogue has great things in it. For instance, my music topic for the day: Harlem Shakes.

I don't know if they are a new band, but they are to me. They are kind of a vampire weekend/ clap your hands combination. Great music though. Without Teen Vogue, I wouldn't have discovered them for myself. So while your hating on my teen vogue habit, think of that. I want you to look at them, while looking at this week's art, and think of vacation and really cool manhattan hippies with fedoras. That's what I think of.

Here is your weekly art pic, and as always enjoy it and life peace!
