No, say it isn’t so? The weird earliest-to-latest post ordering fixed? Wordpress updated? Copyright notice (ha) pushed forward two years? My gosh, could it be?
Yeah, so I’m going to try and keep this better updated this time. I’ll write up a real post. Later.

Well, I must thank BJ for giving me this idea. He told me once that he bought a guitar at a pawn shop (the 12-string electric if I remember correctly). Well, being without an acoustic for the whole school year was torture, so I decided that I needed to start looking for one. So today I went out to the pawn shop to look for an acoustic. I found this for about $350. After looking up its list price, turns out I payed less than a third of it original cost. I told the guy at the shop that I was really looking for less expensive guitar because I needed to buy a case as well, and then he said that he’d throw in a soft case for free! Needless to say I jumped on it right away. I’m really excited!
Speaking of guitar. If you haven’t heard Rodrigo y Gabriela, you need to right now. Also listen to their cover of Stairway to Heaven.

Well, its been a while, but the school year is finally over and I don’t have to deal with Physics anymore! Woohoo! Summer is going to be really fun. Got a good job lined up and I’m taking trips to Canada and Colorado. Other than that the summer should be just a good time to relax. I’m really looking forward to it. Hope you all have a great summer too!

Monday was a really warm day. Upper 70s for most of the day. Tuesday was warm too, but that evening, a huge front moved through leaving us with 30 degree weather for the next few days! Even still its only 45 out.
That’s just bizzare.

Well, almost a month ago, BJ told me that I WILL like Anberlin. Who is Anberlin do you ask? They’re awesome, that’s who they are! Duh.
Beej asked me to listen to their music and say what I thought. I’ve listened to their later two albums: “Never Take Friendship Personal,” and “Cities.” They are amazing. They have a great sound. If any of you have heard of Mae, you know how good they are. Well, Anberlin has vocals at least as good as Mae (I think a bit better), but they rock harder. Way harder.
I hate comparing them to Coheed and Cambria because I hate that band, but I must admit that their guitar work is good, and Anberlin reminds me of that.
Anberlin has tons of driving energy and they nail great melodies in just about every song. That’s hard to do.

(Sorry BJ, didn’t get to the other music yet. I was sick. See post below 
)
As if it couldn’t get any worse, there has been a stomach flu epidemic here in our hall (alas, Aaron and I did not escape.)
Apparently people all over the dorm got sick last night. So, ‘mudez was wrong. No electrical fire. 
Basically this has become the UMR Disaster Week.

Yeah. Them too.
