"These chords are old, but we shake hands
'Cause I believe that they're the good guys

It's not replacing this one; it's not really about personal stuff, but more about stuff I want to share with the world (music books, hopefully witty outlooks on life, etc.) I might double-post some of the stuff here. But here's the address if anyone wants to check it out... I don't think it has many readers right now. haha ( Read more... )

Sadly, fall break is over. It's been a great four days, during which I've
read three books. In the spirit of the third book on my list, I'm going to post

Red Hot Chili Peppers - TearI discovered this song today when I was listening to my iPod on shuffle and it came on. It's one of those songs where I have the whole CD but I haven't listened to all the songs... and holy crap, I've been missing out. The lyrics are gorgeous and the melody fits perfectly with them... a bit of sadness, but hopeful. I ( Read more... )
