What a week. I feel like I have been tired for all of it. I have put a lot of time in the studio though - my "job" involves listening to the cds that different companies send us and see if they are good or not - and I have been taking care of that after slacking last week. But even last night, I went to bed sorta early and still felt really tired all week. Oh well.
First mini class is over. Well, it will be when I hand this project in tomorrow. The class was newspaper editing and design. We had to put together an entire front page and I was pretty happy to get a 93 on it. Then she handed us our average in the class and mine was an 89. I was like C'MON!!! So basically this thing I am turning in tomorrow is make or break. Let's hope to make it...
We were sposed to go see the midnight showing of Transformers on Tuesday. Apparently, everybody else wanted to also as when we got there it was sold out. Made another attempt the next night, but after spending three hours in the studio, I was kind of tired. When the person I was sposed to go with changed plans, I just chilled. Now the date is set for Saturday matinee (times are hard out here, haha).
Speaking of money, apparently I have less than what I thought. That's never a good thing. Looks like July is going to be a struggle month. But at less two trips to Crestview are in the works. Independence Day weekend and then UFC 100 featuring the Brock Lesnar fight. Can't wait for both of those.
And now, for my two cents:
Say what you want about Micheal Jackson, the man made some damn good music back in the day. I still jam out to him every now and then and I remember loving his song in Free Willy, haha. But the man, not the entertainer, was a dirty guy. Is this going to be about how he should be remembered? No, that is up to you. Everybody has an opinion and they are entitled to it. I just hope I don't offend anybody with mine, which is this: Nobody knew him, so why are there people saying they are sad and are going to cry? My friend said she turned on BET 106th and Park and people were balling in the audience. I just don't get it. I loved Heath Ledger as an actor, still do, but I didn't want to cry when he died. I didn't know him. The only time I came close to feeling sad when a celebrity died is when Eddie Guerrero passed away. Yes, I realize I am giving away that I am a wrestling fan, but his was actually sad. He was a man who was down on his luck at one point but he pulled himself together and got out of it. And that night, it showed all his friends on there balling, and tribute videos that yea it did get to me. But the man who brought us Thriller and stand up comedians an endless supply of jokes? While sad, it's not that emotional. Like I said, everybody is entitled to thier opinion, this is just mine. Maybe I should have put this more elegantly, or just plain better, but it's late, and like I said... tired all week.
Random lyric of the day:
So you stand on the corner
Where the angels sit
And you think to yourself,
"This is it, this is it
This is all that I have
All I can stand
Is this air in my lungs
And this coin in my hand"
That you tossed in the air
And I fell, and I fell
All the way to the bottom
Of the well, of the well
Like those soft little secrets
That you tell, that you tell
To yourself, when you think
No one's listening to, well

I got the mic and you got the moshpit
So I would like to welcome the new followers, and anyone else who saw me shamelessly promote this blog on the music group on 20something. It's a good one to start with, because I'm basically asking for feedback.
If you are new, then one thing to know about me is that I am a college radio DJ. This is only important when it gets close to Wednesdays (the day I go on) and especially when fall semester starts again. This summer is kind of lazy -- I have only done one show -- but in the fall when everyone comes back it should be interesting. One day, we took the camera in the studio and snapped this lovely pic:
Now, it looks like im singing or gettin ready to rap, but actually I was just trying to "look hard." All I do is introduce the music. And speaking of the music, this is where you guys come in.
My show is called "All Things Rock" because that's basically what I play -- all things in the genre of rock. I have literally played Coldplay and Underoath in the same show before. It's how I get down. Sometimes I have themes (in the past I have had acoustic shows, an all female show, and warped tour artists as examples). But tomorrow, I don't really have a theme. I was going to play a bunch of screamo because A Day To Remember and Chiodos tracks came to Rock Band, but I think I am going to wait till July when Warped Tour makes its way to Atlanta. So I need your help.
I usually have a group on facebook, but i'm trying to keep my facebook/myspace world separate from my blogspot world, so consider you guys my special group. In that group I ask for suggestions on what to play and what not. Well this week, I have the bands in mind. I just need your suggestions for songs.
The only song I know for sure I am going to play is Linkin Park's new song. If I go on after my roommate, I will play Are You In? by Incubus (explanation: my roommate is an actual DJ, with turntables and everything. He may or may not come in tomorrow. On a normal schedule, he goes on before I do, but we may move around tomorrow and he might go on after me). But those are the only two, I have locked. The following are bands I would like to play. Like I said, there is no theme to tomorrow's show, but I guess nothing too crazy or nothing way soft. Kind of in the middle. Only restriction: it has to fall under the category the umbrella of rock (meaning no hip hop and stuff) and that it has to be clean, or radio friendly. So here are the bands I have in mind:
Green Day (off their newest album)
Taking Back Sunday (also off newest album)
Yeah Yeah Yeahs (and also off newest album)
Franz Ferdinand
MGMT
Shiny Toy Guns
Kings of Leon
The Black Keys
Manchester Orchestra
Anberlin
Augustana
The Academy Is...
Jack's Mannequin
Cage the Elephant
All American Rejects
The Shins
White Stripes (or Raconteurs)
Cold War Kids
Toxic Airbourne Event
Gym Class Heroes
Head Automatica
The Hush Sound
The Killers
Minus the Bear
Pendulum
New Found Glory
Silversun Pickups
The Sounds
So there they are. I may play more bands than that, I may play less. I only have two hours. But if you could, offer suggestions on which song to play from 1 band, 3 bands, or all of them if you have the time. Suggest anybody else if you like, though if I don't already have them, I may not have time to get them. Tell your friends, your family, your dog to suggest. After all, this is going out to people, so why not have it be people suggested?
Oh, and if you wanna listen in, we stream online. Although i'm not sure what exact time I will go on, I know my roommate and I will be on air from 5-8, central time (if you hear some club type stuff, that means he is on). The link is at wegl.auburn.edu and just click on streaming.
Thanks ahead of time!

Just like old times
Tonight was a good night. Well, come to think of it, last night was good too. I just don't have the pictures so I can't show it off. Oh well, i will try my best to give a visual. For chronological sake, let's start with yesterday.
It was my roommate's birthday. Little trivia about my roommate... he's basically my p.i.c. We have been friends since 4th or 5th grade, but we tell everybody it's been about 27 years. If you have ever seen the show Scrubs, look at Turk and JD and that is pretty much us. I am JD, the more emotional one. He just kinda goes along with most stuff. We have been roommates since our first year in college (August will start year 5) and the thought of the day we separate (he will graduate in the spring, myself in the summer) is a sad thought to say the least. If you saw the FINAL episode of Scrubs, it basically revolved around JD leaving the hospital. I told him how it was going to suck when that day came for us. Well, enough of the background. We both have a pretty random sense of humor, so here is how his birthday went down. We put up a banner in the hallway that had "16" dangling from it (signaling a sweet 16, even though he turned 22) and we got him a pinata. The pinata was a 100 dollar bill that we filled with paper money, fake coins, and skittles. So when he finally busted it (edit: we tore it open) it literally rained skittles. Pretty awesome. Add in the fact our friend from Troy came up and our other friend from down the street made him a cake, THEN toss in a dinner at CiCi's and a good Rock Band session, and you had a good night.
Now, on to tonight. For all these people coming into my little corner of the blogosphere (especially those in the music group), one thing to know about me is that I am a dj at a campus radio station. That is not me saying "know this about me because I am cooler than you," rather "know this about me because I will probably talk about it -- a lot." But tonight was my first trip in the studio since April, and it felt good. I mostly played the new Taking Back Sunday cd, but I threw in some other bands like Incubus, Anberlin and The Sounds. No one could call in cuz the phones were down so I don't know if anybody was listening, but an old friend from high school named Leah (for you jme, cuz i know you would ask who it was if I left it vague) tuned in after we got to chatting on myspace's new chat feature. After I gave her a shoutout, she referred to me in her status as "THE COOLEST PERSON ALIVE!!!" I think I will end this post on that note...
Random lyric of the day:
Oh, there ain't no rest for the wicked,
Money don't grow on trees.
I got bills to pay,
I got mouths to feed,
There ain't nothing in this world for free.
I know I can't slow down,
I can't hold back,
Though you know, I wish I could.
No there ain't no rest for the wicked,
Until we close our eyes for good

The Teaser
Titled that because there are a couple of things I am going to touch on, but not go into. Yet.
*There has been a turn of events in the "this girl" story. However, with jme visiting in two days, I can't go into it just now as she should get the scoop first. Cuz she is a good friend and has been keeping up. But it's good news. I think?
*Tried to get a column at our school's newspaper. Was unsuccessful. They said they didn't have enough room, but maybe in the fall. I think, until then, I am going to start a new blog dedicated to just that. Will try to have a serious tone like I am writing for a newspaper or magazine or what have you. More details on that later.
*I want to put my two cents in with the rest of the world and say this. I can see the Twilight guy winning breakout performance, ok I can deal with that. Maybe movie of the year because of who was voting (but it shouldn't have won that). But how IN THE WORLD are you going to tell me that it had a better fight than The Dark Knight??? Even Pineapple Express had a better fight scene. Kids these days...
*So being the assistant music director is pretty cool. We got some cds this week that don't come out till next week. Ballin.
*Speaking of cds, Taking Back Sunday came out with theirs this week. My opinion on it? That will probably in my first post in the new blog :)
And did I mention I am really getting into the Kings of Leon? Well, at least thier latest cd. I will end it with that.
i could call you baby
i could call you dammit
it's a one in a million
oh it's the rolling of her spanish tongue
that makes me want to stay

Updates
Family: My sister called me today and I couldn't be more happy. Maybe this will only compare to the feeling of finally seeing jme after like 5 thousand years. Seriously, I can't remember the last time we just hung out, not a stop by on my way home or anything like that. I think the last time was in daleville/dothan (yeesh). But back to my sister, it was awesome having her call. We both talked of how we felt out of schedule and said it won't be like that again. Sidenote: she has gone 8 days without smoking and I am so stoked about it. 8 days may not be a long time, but compare it to the near decade of smoking and it's a start.
School: Finished what I had to do for one class and I feel somewhat prepared for my test tomorrow. This weekend was supposed to be a break, but I will have to do some work before, study sometime during, and meet up with my group at the end. I know I at least will get a break when the semester is over.
Sports: UNC won the NCAA tournament. I haven't kept up with it since my bracket was shot in the first round. But it was nice to finally see them win as I have sort of been a fan of them for a while. I say sort of cuz i'm not a hardcore fan (I only like them because of my uncle) but I do cheer them on at times. Also, I don't know if you would categorize this as sports, but I sold my wrestling tickets and while money makes me happy, handing those over made me sad
Video Games: My Xbox froze twice today. This is not good news.
Movies: Fast and Furious just sort of came and went, didn't it? Now what do we have to look forward to? I still am I little excited for Wolverine, and kind of Star Trek???? It looks entertaining. Terminator i'm still a little iffy on
Music: I had a good show tonight. Randomly got extended to three hours. Did an artist spotlight on The Academy Is... and had someone call in asking who they were, so that was cool. She also asked who I was and my usual time and all that so there was definitely a smile on my face. (is it weird that I thought she sounded cute on the phone?) Already started planning for next week's show: An all female show. Any ideas? Eminem is back. And when I say back, I mean back to his first couple of cd's. His newest video has him making fun of celebrities. Some of it is funny, but most of it just seems.... stale and unoriginal. The song still needs to grow on me.
TV Shows: Ok, I admit it, I am a sucker for "reality" shows. More specifically, ones that involve elimination. I have yet to watch a season of The Real World and I probably never will. But Duel or Island or Gauntlet? Sign me up. I will catch up on the first episode tomorrow. Oh, and I LOVED the ending to I Love Money this week. I was laughing and cheering and then felt very weird for doing so. I have also been on a Nitro Circus marathon. That show is very addicting. Lastly, this season of Rock of Love has been the worst. It has been really hard to keep watching. But will I watch Daisy of Love? Probably.
I've rambled too long. I think I have some ideas for this blog. Let me think about it.

Hold on to that feeling
What a crazy, crazy day...
*Feel I did ok on my test. First time I answered all the short answer questions, so that's a good thing. Still, I went to talk to her before this test to try and get help and if I don't do good I feel like I will disappoint her. We'll see
*Got in to my other psych class and realized that we had an article review done that I was completely oblivious to. Nice. Just got it done a few minutes ago. And I just had a hard time trying to spell minutes.
*Originally had a quiz scheduled for next Monday in my press, law and ethics class. Got moved to April 13th. I also have a "case briefing" that day where I have to present a court case to the class. In my recent style of forgetting things, that just so happens to be the day I have tickets to go see wrestling in Atlanta. I figured before I took the blow and sold them I would at least ask him and see if there was anything I could do. He said I could come to his office the Friday before or Monday of and take the quiz and VIDEO TAPE MY PRESENTATION. As if that embarrassment is not enough, his office is located in Montgomery.
*Got my paper back in feature writing today. I made a B, a grade that normally I would be upset about, but considering I literally did it the night before, I can't complain one bit. I feel I am starting to take pride in my work because when he wrote comments on my paper, he talked about things I should have added and I totally agreed with him. So much that I almost got disappointed in myself that I didn't think to add them in on my own. Same thing happened the other night in the studio. I made a couple mistakes that when I first started out last summer were no big deal, but that's just it - i'm not just starting anymore. I shouldn't be making stupid mistakes like playing a song while another song is already playing.
*Speaking of music, and wrapping up my day, a friend came over to play Rock Band because she wasn't happy at the moment and needed to get out. Everytime she comes over we are guaranteed to play two songs -- "Bounce" by The Cab and "Down With The Sickness" by Disturbed. We actually failed the Sickness because her friend wasn't good. Haha, that sounds mean but it's always funny when people are like "i'm not very good" and then Frisco picks up the guitar and puts it on expert.
Also, good times -- when Frisco left tonite and I had the house to myself, I decided I would get on the mic. I belted a setlist that included "The Kids Aren't Alright" by The Offspring, "Sweetness" by Jimmy Eat World, "Black" by Pearl Jam and the newly downloaded "Don't Stop Believing" by Journey. It is fun putting on a concert when no one is around.
On sad news, it looks like it is confirmed. I will never see the following picture on a football field again:
Just like the picture looks, dude is unhappy. So goodbye. It's sort of sad news because I did like the guy. But really sad news because I have no idea who our quarterback will be now
Random lyric of the day:
If you run away now,
Will you come back around?
And if you ran away,
I'd still wave goodbye
Watching you shine bright.

I'd still wave goodbye
Watching you shine bright.

Is it really 3:30 in the morning?
Frisco and I joined Matt Walker in the studio tonight. We usually do, well, I usually do, but Frisco made an appearance tonight and it was really cool, the three of us just vibin in there. We played random songs from 10-11, as is the usual format, then Matt played some chill music at 11. I am currently writing this blog right now because I am waiting for the Album Leaf to finish downloading so I can listen to it as I'm falling asleep.
I am also writing because we decided to stop playing Resident Evil 5 for the night. We are about halfway through and it's pretty much a given that we are not going to finish it before I have to take it back on Wednesday. Definite second rental though cuz I am really enjoying this game. Not "scary" like the old ones, but still tense and the teamwork aspect is cool.
That's about it for my day. Work was good, except for the thunder that woke me up this morning, then the wetness that I was surrounded in. Changed the title of my blog already. I think you see more music related posts anyways, so why not go with a Coldplay reference? Relived my favorite match of all time today -- The Rock vs. Hulk Hogan. Getting ready for Wrestlemania next weekend. I really wish I was more excited about it...
Speaking of wrestling, sort of, I recorded the Nick Teen Choice Awards because I wanted to see The Rock, excuse me -- Dwayne Johnson, and he was really good. I have to say, I think the kids route is where he is at now.
Taking Back Sunday announced the name of their first single off their new cd. "Sink Into Me".
I can't wait...
Took pictures in the studio tonight. Sounds innocent right? Well what if I said I only wanted to take pictures so I could post them on myspace? What if I told you it wasn't even my camera? Should have them uploaded soon
And as far as my plans... I studied a little bit and cleaned a little bit. NEED to finish tomorrow. Mabye admitting that we won't finish RE5 will not distract me so much.
My download is done. Goodnight.
Random lyric of the day:
As you stand...
under the barlights
and the band plays some song
about forgetting yourself for a while
and the piano's this melancholy soundcheck
to her smile
