I haven't been able to stop listening to this song called "White Flash". It's by this German duo called Modeselektor. They make crazy Euro electronic/rap/ambient/dub music; they're hard to put a label on if you get my drift. Thom Yorke easily blows a few songs from The Eraser away with his contribution to the album. The bass makes me want a huge subwoofer and Thom Yorke's singing matches the song perfectly. And the beat is awesome, don't know if I've mentioned that. I've taken the liberty of uploading the song in case anybody who reads this (anybody?) can give it a listen. Here's a link for the mp3:

Finals are almost over; all I have left is French Revolution. I got an A minus in Geological Hazards and an A in the one credit lab. I also got an A minus on my 20 page paper on Kaiser Wilhelm II's role in the outbreak of the first world war, so that is my grade for my World War One seminar. I got a 78 on my Spanish final; I can't exactly complain about that for a multitude of reasons:
a. I suck at Spanish
b. My pre-final average in the class was a 78
c. The class average for the final was also a 78.
d. I put very little effort into Spanish (see reason a.)
Tomorrow morning is my French Revolution final; it promises to be out of control. My professor basically expects us to know everything that ever happened and to transcribe it into a blue book in a 2 hour time span. Winter break should be good; I'll hopefully get some hours at the theatre or subbing at my mom's school because I could use some money. All that Christmas shopping has really put a dent in the ol' coffers.
I hate people at concerts that think it's appropriate to clap along for every song.
I also can't stop listening to Radiohead. But I guess that's not really anything new. In Rainbows is still blowing me away, and Nude is definitely my favorite song of 2007.
