Well, I'm back from my trip to New Jersey/New York. I only got to go into the city for one day, but that day was spent well, meeting grdnofevrythng, going to various shops, visiting the MOMA, and missing trains. I had a really awesome time, and there will be pictures at some point in the future ( Read more... )

For Spring Break this year (in two weeks, because Michigan thinks the first week of March is Spring for some reason), I'm going to be going to New York! Mostly to help my brother move into his new place, but psh, I'm so going off to do my own thing. If anyone lives nearby, maybe we can meet up.

I've never been one to cook. I can make myself some pasta or grilled cheese sure, but if we get recipes involved, shit gets rough.

I think ( Read more... )

Guys! Finals are finally finished and I'm done with classes for the summer! I am beyond happy about this. I've had enough philosophy of ethics to last me my entire fucking life, thank you very much ( Read more... )

I was supposed to go see the Yeah Yeah Yeahs last month, but that didn't work out (CRY). But anyway, I finally got out and saw three local acts last Friday night!

This upcoming week is going to suck hard, so that can only mean more posting from Ami as she procrastinates. Studying for Greek? Hah! .. like it would help at all. I'm fucked ( Read more... )

So Tegan & Sara/Death Cab for Cutie concert last night. AMAZING. My friend Sameera and I went down to Columbus for the show. We got to see our other friend, Elizabeth, which was really fun. A mini SEA YAK gathering ( Read more... )

The short: AMAZING. The audience was fantastic, the band really seemed to enjoy being there and got into it, they rocked all the songs, I got my CD signed, and basically yeah. FANTASTIC.
