On actually getting a break...
So finals are done, and my job is currently "rescheduling" me, so that translates into a lot of free time to just sit around and do things I like.
It feels so weird, it took me a second to remember exactly what it is I do when I don't have papers to write, conjugation to memorize, pages of text to read, or a cafe to run around it. So what, pray tell, have I been doing all day (other than sleep, something I'm prone to do at any given time if given the chance- my body's still bouncing back for months of averaging something like 15 hours of sleep a week)?
I've been getting back into music of the loud, guitar-driven variety, something I love (I would fall asleep to punk rock as a kid/teen, I found it soothing. Yeah it makes little sense to me too. Lately, I've been frolicing in the angsty, grunge goodness of the Smashing Pumpkins and Nirvana especially. It's so funny, because one of the sweetest songs I think that I've ever heard is by the Smashing Pumpkins- who are most well know for being rats in a cage, despite all their rage. For those who wish to persue said lyrics: http://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/smashingpumpkins/standinsideyourlove.html

Also on the complete other side of the musical spectrum. I find myself listening to more and more reggaeton basically cuz its just so damn fun to dance to. There is also a random resurgence of 90's RnB and slow jams, and a growing interest in the blues thanks to seeing some phenomenal performers at the Art Car parade this weekend.
I am also reading for fun again and have taken to carrying around a notebook with me again- a non-academic one (though knowing me, I'll end up doing something geeky in it, that's just how I am inclined).
I realize I said this would be for spazzing, and it will I think. At least for the most part. i'm just glad to be myself again i thought it deserved a post of some sort.
much love <3
