conor + live = yay!

I saw Bright Eyes! This is not my video, but easily the best, most appropriate closing song.

post finals blues

I wreaked havoc on my body this year. In fact, the last shift I worked before my nine day staycation was easily the worst shift of my life. Every part of me was screaming in pain, and the atopic eczema had spread all down both my legs leaving me tired and itchy and grumpy.

Needless to say, since taking a bunch of days off work, I've finally had time to go see a doctor and get the medication I needed to make it go away. And I had time to actually sleep. I don't remember the last time I consistently slept eight hours a night. I still don't feel right, body wise, but I'm working on it. The rain is just keeping me from getting my fitness in, which is probably all I need at this point.

But after all that, all the exhaustion and work this semester was, all the overnights and meetings and study sheets, I think I did really really well. So far, I know that I have an A, B+, and a B. I'm still waiting on two more classes that I think I did relatively well in, too. I'm excited. It's the first semester I feel that I've really invested in-- where I actually really loved all my professors and the books they were teaching. And it's the first semester where I feel like I've actually improved on my writing. I've learned so much more Japanese, too!

もうすぐクリスマスなので、まだまだプレゼントの買い物やってないさ。。最近時間がないし、そしてあまりアルバイトに働いてないからし、お金があまりない。たぶんクリスマスの後に家族と彼氏のプレゼントを買うことになったんな。。!

:3

Anyway, will hopefully have photos and stuff to post soon.

//edit!
I PASSED ALL CLASSES! With a 3.5GPA! WOOOO!

man man + bouncing souls

Saw Man Man at Hallowballoo. They headlined. It was a great show. I'm kind of eager to hear more from them, but the internet isn't too kind.

Then I saw the Bouncing Souls at Hawaiian Brians. I guess they come here all the time

They played their cover of The Kinks, "Better Things," that they did for that one movie, but I don't remember what it's called. I like the original better, anyway. (But now I can't stop listening to The Kinks!)
