It's been too long since I've posted on here, but I've been busy this semester!
I am in the midst of studying for finals and just had a busy Thanksgiving Break. Now I'm just waiting for the 13th so that I can go back home and relax for Christmas!
I thought I'd just shout out a few of my favourite songs at the moment. Some are part of my all-time favourite list, but others are just some I'm into right now. I'm numbering them but they aren't in any particular order. Hope you find some new music to dig out of this list!
1) Flashed Junk Mind - Milky Chance
2) Jawbreaker - Chevelle
3) Dialysis - It's Alive
4) Bittersweet Symphony - The Verve
5) R U Mine? - Arctic Monkeys
6) Minus the Machine - 10 Years
7) Creep - Radiohead
8) The Way You Make Me Feel - Michael Jackson
9) Dangerous - Big Data
10) Boneless - Steve Aoki

Back on the Grind
Well hello out there!
Today marks 6 days back in Nashville and so far it's been amazing and extremely busy. The drive down was decent and moving in was fun because I'm now living in a 6 person suite with some friends. Amanda is back molding the artistic youths in Missouri! So far for me there's been a good mix of class and extra-curriculars to keep me busy. Yesterday I spent 3 hours in a hot tent outside trying to recruit freshmen to join the sailing team and today I spent 5 hours power washing our precious little F-J boats in the 100 degree sun. BRUTAL. But still fun to hang out with the Vandy sailors.
Also, I went to the Chevelle show in Chattanooga and it was amazing as usual! Ended up with a setlist and got to talk to Jackie and Chris before I left! Overall, it was the perfect end to my last official night of summer.
Other than that stuff, I'm just getting used to being back on that college grind. Let's hope I can do everything I need to this year and get out alive! Kidding...but still.
Hasta luego y'all.

el verano
Hey Hey!
I sit here watching Seinfeld, about halfway through summer, wondering how time passes so quickly. I've been home for about 2 months and I'm working part-time. As for what I've been up to: I got into a car accident (but no worries I'm okay), I've had a few fun days at the pool with Amanda, and most recently I went to the beach in North Carolina to visit my extended family!
As for what's ahead, I'm hoping for a few Chevelle concerts and Vegas with Amanda and Devon. I think Amanda and I have realized that the summer tour of 2010 will never happen again so we just kind of need to roll with the punches and make the best of the concerts we can go to. That tour was something that will always be in the back of my mind. However, Chevelle is about 10,000 times more fun to see live because the music/show is so good! I'm gonna see them solo in Chattanooga on 8/19 so that should be a good cap to a solid summer.
Other than this stuff, I've just been chilling. I realize that since I've started this blog, I've been posting less and less; but I suppose that's just a product of being busy with growing up. Speaking of growing up, I graduate college in about 10 months. Fuck. I mean I'm definitely excited but I need to figure out my plans after Vanderbilt.
Anyway, I'm gonna try to keep up more often on here (which I suppose is easier said than done), not that anyone is waiting for the second I submit these random musings.

SURFBORT BIRTHDAY
Hello there!
Just wanted to post a little something because I'm sure I won't get around to another one until after Summer starts (which for me is April 29!!!)
Today is my 21st birthday! wut wut It's been solid so far; although it's only consisted of going to class. But I'm going to dinner later with some friends so that should be fun! Saturday I'm heading to STL to see Chevelle with Amanda! It's been too damn long. I mean the last concert I went to was SP in Lancaster and we all know how that went (and if you don't remember, all I can say is it did not end ideally...but it's for the best!) So anyway, this Saturday I'll be having a blast! Also, it is absolutely necessary that everyone listens to the new Chevelle album "La Gárgola" which came out today. If not, you're missing out
Hope the week is going well for everyone else out there :)
Hasta Luego,
PS I do say it's the shit if I do say so myself...if I do say so myself...if I do say so myself

Updates
This is going to be short and to the point.
It's been several months since I've blogged on here. However, I wasn't completely inactive in the blog world. My sister and I went on a summer tour through the Northeast for SP (the last time that will happen) and we blogged about our adventures here --> http://concerttravelerconfessions.blogspot.com/
Believe me, reading that is worth the drama. To put it in a few words: we said some things that were true, Shim took it the wrong way, the truth came out. And here we are. Their new album is honestly shit (minus about 2 gems) compared to the old stuff and I'm (well WE) are over it. The music is pop...not what I signed up for. I hate to be the bearer of bad news but I'm sure they've sold their once musical, naive souls to the record deal gods to become successful. And it fucking sucks. But whatever.
Anyway, I'm in Nashville at Vanderbilt. AND I LOVE IT. Nashville is amazing, Vandy is amazing. I miss NYU a little sometimes but not enough to ever question my decision to transfer.
There's so much more to say and catch up on but I'm busy procrastinating right now. So until next time,
