A Few Random Thoughts...

We have to watch a graduation video on how to conduct ourselves through graduation before we can get our tickets this week. How dumb is that? What are we? 12 year olds?

I had NO idea that Scott Weiland was the lead singer of Velvet Revolver. I knew Duff and Slash from GNR were in it, but not Weiland. Even though he is an ex-druggie, I have always found him to be hot.

I am upset because I find myself listening to more hip-hop and R&B. Why you might ask? Because new rock/alternative music SUCKS. I'm sorry, I know a lot of you out there like the new stuff like Franz or Modest Mouse and many bands that sound like them that I don't know the name of, but I am just not feeling it. At all. I am in desperate need for some new, good music...and who would have thought I'd turn to hip-hop and R&B. I think the late 90s were good. But alas, music always evolves, right? Until something strikes my fancy, I always have 311 and many others to fall back on.

I heard the song "Tootsie Roll" by the 69 Boyz on the radio while getting dressed. Omg, did that break back some junior high memories. I used to get down w/my bad self w/that song. Craziness.

It really sucks when things become commercialized. All of the unique, honest elements are lost when that happens. So sad.

For a class I'm reading a book called Swingin' The Dream: Big Band Jazz and the Rebirth of the American Culture. It's really good, I have always loved swing music and the era, so it's been an enjoyable read.

I buy my cap and gown this week.

K, I'm off like a prom dress.
