All I have been wanting to do is read lately. I recently finished "Eat, Pray, Love" which is a great book if you want tips on personal soul searching. I also think it'd be a great gift idea to give to your non religious divorced broken down mother. :)
I am now reading "The Bell Jar" and I can't take my eyes off the text. I just want to open the words and crawl inside the book. I can see every strand of Esters hair, I can picture her black exhausted eyes, and I can taste her emotion. This book has taken me away from my homework even though I should be studying for finals. But I don't care anymore, I just want to read and play music for my profession.


Other than reading, this last week I went to the Tegan and Sara show. I wasn't going to go because I haven't really gotten into their new c.d. "Sainthood", but when I went to go visit my best friend Courtney who was in line all morning, I decided to go. It was a good $40 dollars to spend, that's for sure! They were great and I was in the second row. The energy there was just phenomenal, and even Tegan and Sara thought it was one of their favorite shows. (source: their blog) :) I can't believe I forgot how inspiring they are to me and my music. I don't really write the same music as them, but they inspire me to play. They inspired me so much I decided I am finally going to buy a new drumset with my tax return money. woo! A 1,000 set. :) I have very talented friends, and I can't wait to combine our music! There is nothing that will stop me from getting paid for what I love to do.
