guilty pleasure

whipped english toffee coffee (though it's coffee-ness is questionable) from the vending machine at work

it kind of tastes like a less delicious waffle with mrs. buttersworth

the maccabees

a band that i continue to be interested in, even when they do more "vibey" stuff like this song.  gonna buy the new album and see how it sounds played out over an hour or however long albums are.

fyi this video wasn't interesting to me (except for the lil sewer rat at 1:00ish)

considering

dropping my english major
keeping my american studies major (cultures and communities focus)
add a disability studies minor

means i gotta talk to my advisor
ugh
life is so difficult, gotta make appointments and talk to adults face to face

happy martin luther king jr. day

why did i listen to "the splendid table"

that show sucks

a good piece of music

Max Bruch - Violin Concerto No 1 in G Minor, Op. 26 - Adagio

i was listening to "music through the night" on the classical radio station as i was falling asleep one night but woke up to write down the name of this song (i wrote the composer as "machsbrucke")

"i don't know so i just do"

i need a room where i can sit down and lay out the deadlines in my near future and decide what to do about them

i think that room is my brain

what i did on the day before school

woke up late
checked the mail
drank coffee, ate grapenuts and a banana
watched 2 and a half episodes of mad men
checked the mail again
thought about how i am wasting my sunday
made a grilled cheese with some pickle spears
listened to this american life
went to kroger, had a horrible time in the school supplies aisle
made my notebooks look cool
started ken burns jazz on netflix
wrote this

i was having a normal "scheduling a meeting with somebody" interaction with fran, the secretary for the office that handles study abroad, when she asked me if i knew where i was going.

"hopefully, prague."
*small gasp* "oh, i love prague.
"blah blah"
"something else about how wonderful prague is"

i will go anywhere fran recommends.
