hello team.
i really don't write in this anymore. what a bummer. it's not that i don't want to. it's more a combination of not having any time and not having much about which to write.
I applied to Fordham and got in, that was nice. I find out from St. Joe's before January 15th. I just finished my apps for NYU, Haverford, and Connecticut College (I already submitted the supplement). I just have to write my essay for Dickinson, and then I'm finished everything. I'm excited to be through with it all.
I had my interview with Haverford on Thursday, that was pretty sweet. I actually enjoyed it. It was weird.
Last night was kind of weird. I was writing my essays for NYU and I got a call from Kev. He was going to Fleen's house, so I decided to go as well. He picked me up and we headed out there. As per usual, we ultimately wound up at Llanerch. As I probably could have guessed, people showed up. First Dan Ramspacher and Tom Murphy, and I was like, "Hey, this is cool." THEN, Alex and Dan show up, and then it was like a flurry of awesomeness. Jordan, Endres, John, Kev Comly, and SAM DEITCH all showed up. I wonder if this will show up if you Google "Sam Deitch." Now that I've said it twice, it just might. Anyway, it was awesome. Then after a few hours, they all left and I hung out with what was left of Team Kath and James and Dease. Jim drove me home and as a result is now grounded. Sweet work.
I watched Waking Life the other night. It was awesome. I watched part of Se7en last night. I'm fairly certain I've never watched the hwole thing straight through, and I think David Fincher is an awesome director.
This Television album is awesome. Jordan is responsible for its existence in my catalogue. It's called Marquee Moon. I highly recommend it. Also, he gets cred for wearing an awesome cardigan that belonged to Kev Kearney last night.
I maxed out my iPod, and as a result, I now have to go back and convert all the songs on it to a 128 bitrate. I'm honestly not sure what that technically means, but it has to do with file size and sound quality. Smaller, not as good. Honestly, I'm a music freak, but I don't think I'm much of an audiophile. I can't even telle the difference between 192 and 128. Anyway, I freed up almost two GB already just from converting. Jim provided me with that tip.
I really like alt-country a lot. I've been listening to Old 97's so freaking much. And Rhett Miller's solo albums. I reeeeeeally like both of them. And all the Old 97's albums I have. Even Drag It Up, which I've yet to listen to.
How about people comment on this with a subject they want me to write about next entry. It can be anything. Just comment with a subject and that's what my next entry will be about. I'm going to do my best from now on to update this every single day like I used to.
