I got into an updating contest...and it was my own damn fault.
Well now, I can't let Koren get the better of me now, can I?
I've been thinking about the group hopping thing quite a bit lately. Prolly a month or more ago Katherine and I were talking about that sort of stuff, and she made me realize how clique-ish our group became so quickly, and I guess I just realized that it's not really groups I dislike, so much as that sort of "insiderness" that always seems to happen. Or maybe I just don't really like inside jokes. Anyway, I've sort of semi-hopped from my original Brandeis group, but I havn't really abandoned them, which I'm happy about... I've just been hanging out with different groups/individual people at different times, which has also been really nice. Just the other day I spent most of a day being caught in the snow with Diana, which included excellent beer at an Indian food place in Waltham, much hanging out/drying off in her apartment in grad, and then at the end of the day, Mozart! I finally found a piano player who wants to just get together and play happy music and have fun, and oh, it made me so happy, you have no idea.
Talk about music therapy.
Also, there has been much random hanging out at Koren's house, cause she has interesting ice cream, cool roommates, and Quantum Leap (god, why is that show so addicting?) I even randomly went to an RBG party, and drank hard cider and played silly drinking games that are sorta like Mao except with drinking.
Oh, that reminds me -- EME concert was Saturday night, and it was kind of cool, though the playing, particularly on my part, was far from perfect. Either way, I had fun, and it was my first college performence, so I suppose that's a milestone. Also, I really want Sarah Mead to be my grandmother, even though she isn't nearly old enough.
Hmmm, what else? There is much singleness in my life once again, which promises to be rather lonely, but still, it was necissary. I'm really happy that Amy doesn't hate me... (at least I hope she doesn't) And I think once the awkward phase is over, things'll be cool again.
Oh, and for all of you who know about my Stan Rogers obsessiveness, I've found another group that I'm not sure why, but really really remind me of him. Girlyman is this really really great folksy trio, who actually sound a lot more like the Indigo Girls than Stan, but for some reason, I just get the same vibe from them that I do from him -- it's really subjective... I'm not really sure how to describe it, but they both just make me feel really good in just the same way... oh, I highly reccomend checking them out.
Okay, now I'm really just wasting time while I wait for my mom to get back to me -- she offered to look over this paper for me, but I have no idea when she's gonna get to it, and that's really the next thing I should do, so until then, I guess i just wait. Eh, I'll go back to listening to 5 albums worth of Stan Rogers and Girlyman on shuffle...
Okay, bye bye.
