M.I.A. was fucking amazing. FUCKING AMAZING. holy shit. i can't even describe how awesome her set was.
but for as much as i detest hipsters, i guess i shouldn't have gone to the biggest hipster concert in the hipster capital of the world.
but portland was fun. voodoo donuts and the thai food cart were delicious. and this really cool man gave us all four leaf clovers that he found with a little saying about how he lives his life. this is what it says
"the longer i live, the more i realize the impact of ATTITUDE on life. ATTITUDE, to me is more than facts. it is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than success, than what other people think or say or do. it is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. it will make or break a company...a church...a home. the remarkable thing is you have a choice every day regarding the ATTITUDE you will embrace for that day. we cannot change our past...we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. we cannot change the inevitable...the only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our ATTITUDE.
"i am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how i react to it. and so it is with you....you are in charge of your attitude." -charles swindoll
it was a really cool thing to give out. it totally made my week.
how are you all doing? who is excited to me see me in less than three weeks!?!?!?!!?
also, i just heard about this really awesome band called polka dot dot dot. they are so cute. and i love them.
EDIT: i just looked up charles swindoll. um well....ok. the four leaf clover is still awesome.
