So I ended up voting for Nader. He was the only politician who actually moved me. I saw he speak on sunday and I was impressed with him. If I lived in Ohio or Florida I would have voted for Kerry, but since I don't live in a swing state, I've come to learn that my vote doesn't really matter. Well if it doesn't matter, I might as well use it to ( Read more... )

So it's Halloween, but somehow I don't really care. Maybe I've grown out of it, maybe I'm just not in a festive mood. I guess I just don't feel like making a fool out myself today. I went to Cabbs last night. I only stayed for minute because it was so crowed that I couldn't breath. So I went to Oasis. Every time I go to the bar I end up seeing ( Read more... )

I never though I would be living with so many Red Sox fans... groan. Even Rudy, who is from the Brooklyn (and a Met fan) was rooting for them. I've never been so ashamed to be a Yankee fan. It's a good thing that I don't really care about baseball. I did like two loads of laundry and cleaned my room yesterday. Melanie is coming up to visit this ( Read more... )

Man I rocked my counterpoint midterm! Yeah no paralell fiths or octaves, smooth voice leading and all that! I still have an eight page paper due a week from monday, but everything will work out. Last night was fun, hanging out with Will, Amanda and everyone at Snuggs. Good times.

Take the "How well you know Jake" quiz!

I finally got all my paperwork in for my senior recital! It was really late, but I got a letter from my adviser and everything should be fine. All I can do now is wait. The application forms have been hanging over my head like a rain cloud for weeks because most of the Jazz dept. faculty is on leave for the semester. But I tracked down the ( Read more... )

The show went well. I got to Purchase around eight, but we din't actually start playing until 11:30. They had overbooked the bands and they made us go on last, after the majority or the crowd had left. Whenever a concert is student organized, it means that it will be utterly disorganized. We totally rocked the four songs that we played. It may not ( Read more... )

Let the word go forth, Imminence is having a show! This Weds (October 6th) at 9:00 in the Student Center at Purchase College, You are cordially invited to witness the first ever live show of a band, destined to change music forever. I supply half of the bands two pronged guitar assault. What does the band sound like, you ask? We're heavy enough to ( Read more... )

Make it stop raining! Please?

Can I just say for the record that I hate frat people! Like this guy steve I live with. He is the biggest piece of Long Island turd that I have ever come across. He is a parody of himself, the preppy clothes, the wife-beater, the gold chains, the steroid use, the elitist, misogynistic attitude, the accent and bad grammar that sound like nails being ( Read more... )
