Things To Take Note Of.

If any boy takes me to the Philadelphia Museum of Art, they win. If any boy wants to take me to the champagne brunch buffet on sundays, they extra win.
For rowing, I really need to do well on this 2k on Thurs. I'm gonna work hard for that. I did alright today at practice.
I have a slew of little crap to get out of the way. And big crap. Like unpacking from moving in a month ago, cleaning, cleaning the cat box, v-day cards, x-mas cards, and I think you get the idea.

I really like this mix and have been listening to it pretty consistently while doing work and such. A lot of the random, younger artists are off of a free sampler offered by Doghouse Records in support of The All-American Rejects' Gives You Hell Tour. Halfway is my Baltimore love, while Valencia is a Philadelphia love that's' newest album has been resonating with me for the last three months +.
I think that's everything. Time for more schoolwork.

Oh and btw, I had the best Valentines ever. And it was my friends and awesome-ness. Who needs dates anyway?

Breath New Life.

After a lot of things hit the fan, I was happy, but I was nervous things were gonna stay that way. But that little try I put out to the crew coach, and the line seemed to catch. We talked and he allowed to me walk on and have a sort of try out/ trial period. He called me after the second practice and told me he thoguht I was doing well and that he wanted to make me an offer. I was amazed. I said sure and he asked me if I wanted to join the team and if I would go to MIAMI WITH THEM FOR SPRING BREAK!?! "I have a plane ticket on my desk for you and all you have to say is yes or no." SO AWESOME. Its a lot of money, but its really important and I think a great opportunity. I think I did well at practice and the coach came to tell me that I did pretty good.
Everything has just been going that kind of great. Crew has 8 practices a week, so it takes up time. But like on last Saturday night/ Sunday morning, I spent my time at the studio 'till they closed at 2 am, I walked home. I remembered that my friend had called me up to hang out, at 2 there was no more work I could do, so I figured it was time to hang out. This is one of those friends where we hang out forever and talk way after parties have ended. I made sure they were still up, and I went over. I had so much fun and it was just great hanging out. Couldn't have been more perfect.
On V-Day, I'm hanging out with my friends at an anti-valentines day party. I was kinda dating someone, but somehow it fell through. And I think I'm okay with it.
Damn, it's good.
