the point where two paths cross

So as we all know, I love design and music. So natttuuurally my love of the concert poster is immense. Here are a few of my favorites found in recent weeks. If I can figure out somewhere to take a printing class I might even bust out a few of my own. Oh the possibilities....

Wolves + Bling + Disco Balls = Instant favorite.

Heh heh. Clever.

think less, do more.

So one thing I've noticed about myself over the years is that I have a whoooolleee lotta ideas and ambitions. Great right? Right. Only, I let these ideas come and go without actually taking any action most of the time. A whole lotta talk and notta lotta action. And thus we have reached this blog entry. I'm going to make a MASSIVE LIST of all the things I want to do over the next few days/weeks/months/years/until i die...and I shall document in some way/shape/form the doings of these things here! And I expect you to hold me to them. Alright? Alright.

1. Guitar. You have one. You got it for you birthday 2(?) years ago and since then have learned how to sorta kinda maybe perhaps if I really had to in a life/death situation play one song (Bad Moon Rising). Play more! Learn how to write your own schtuff! Which brings us to...
2. Voice lessons. My lovely mother has already found out about some places you could take them so doooo eeeeetttt.
3. Make. A. Zine. You already have the remnants of zines you've started and never finished in the path so just choose one, finish it, make 100 copies and spread them around. Doesn't sound so hard when you put it that way.
4. Find a fabulous internship/job with some publicity/public relations/event planning place. Do work. Make $$$$. Dolla dolla bills ya'll
5. Read every night. Somewhere in the past 15 years of schooling I forgot how to read on a regular basis beyond required reading for class (which, let's be honest, I don't really do).
6. Make a film! My camera has amazing HD recording capabilities and I don't use them! BLASPHEMY.

Alright, so it's short as of now (4.28.10) but I will be sure to add to it as time goes on.
As for now: Ready, set, GO!!! (alright, maybe I'll sleep first...)

dear hype machine, i love you

So today's rainy weather has provided me with the perfect opportunity to laze about and obsessively click through all of Hype Machine's "popular" music in search of something new to add to my library. The result? This semi-scattered short playlist of songs I've found thus far...I'm going to attempt to start my podcast sometime in the next week so I'm sure some of these will make a second appearance but for now this is what I've got!

Now turn up the speakers and get ready to bust out some solo dance moves alone in your room away from the windows so as to avoid any embarrassing neighbor encounters...or maybe that's just me.

fancy meeting you here

Alas! The transition to blogger has arrived. For all of you who have been reading my blog over on wordpress.com you'll know that I'm very into the aesthetics of things and therefore got tired of not being able to find a layout that I felt fit the look I'm going for with the blog and so IM BACK! And Blogger, I will never leave you again. I'm so sorry to have faltered in my judgement there for a moment, please forgive me. I hope we can get past this minor blip in our relationship. I sense good things in our future. And thus we begin a new blogger adventure! TALLY HO!
