Together we sparkled like fire flies
Those summer nights we looked up into the night skies” —Me
SATURDAY NIGHT MUSIC CLUB #1
Death Cab For Cutie - Styrofoam Plates
This song is from one of my favorite Death Cab records, The Photo Album (released in 2001). I remember the first time I heard this album quite vividly. It ended up being the soundtrack to the fall/winter of my senior year and basically every fall/winter since. Lyrically, this song hits the spot in a way that few songs do. So, listen, enjoy, and discuss your thoughts on the song. Or just take this as an opportunity to talk about MUSIC, and trade song recommendations…
PS. I think this Saturday Night Music Club may become a weekly thing.
****This Saturday Night Music Club makes me excited/happy = )
I <3 music *****
So before I got this tumblr, I had a xanga which I started back in 8th grade = P I haven’t used in a long time and I was looking through it today and it brought back so many memories. About 4-5 years of memories. It’s fun to see how much you’ve changed and how much you haven’t.
Here is a poem one my best friends Janvi, wrote about me and my fear of spiders 2 years ago:
A Poem By Janvi K….The itsybitsy spider went up the water spout
Then came maureen, that damn spider made her shout!
Out came “her love!” and gave that spider pain
The itsy bitsy spider never got up again…

I feel defeated again
I’m always losing to myself
I tried to build a better me,
Shack to castle, and it fell down
I had the right intentions
Sometimes my hope envelopes me
And I can’t learn the lesson
Not to send a goldfish to the sea
This matter is mine
Don’t worry I’m fine
This matter is mine.
I’m not going to give it up.
I know what you’ve been thinking
Too soon to empty my cocoon
This butterfy is not ready
Wouldn’t she know better than you
This matter is mine
Don’t worry I’m fine
This matter is mine
I’m not going to give it up.

She just posted this song yesterday and I kind of fell in love with it. She’s an amazing artist and she should be known.

So I’m dying from this demon /evil/terrible cold-flu thing and it really sucks. And I’m listening to Beethoven/Mozart/Haydn over and over again because I have an exam in my Listening to Music Class tomorrow, normally I wouldn’t complain because music awesome but this demon just makes me want to crawl into bed and sleeeeeep! = (
I just watched Crazy/Beautiful and I really liked it. I mean it helped that Jay Hernandez was in it, but it was actually a pretty good movie. It’s not a movie I would’ve paid to see, but watching it on youtube was worth it. = P
The test was cancelled and my sad attempts at studying were wasted (not that I got much done) but I basically wasted my Eid at classes and only got to see my bengali babes for an hr = ( Anywho tonight should be fun going UMDCP garba, finally getting some real college-ish fun. Plus I’m staying at Sabrina’s dorm should be uber amounts of much needed fun! I’m excited! It’s also a good opportunity to pass out promo for The Rockband Live Tour I already plastered the Humanities Building lounge with flyers. Now I shall pass out flyers at CP. I will try and get more out at UMBC and other places…this concert is going to be AWESOME! I shall scan the poster and post it hear. On another totally random note since I’m really bored now I’m going to post photobooth pictures = P
Much Love <3

I’m supposed to be studying for a Psych test on 3 chapters (which I still have yet to read) that is tomorrow…and here I am on my tumble blog. It’s just one of those weeks where I just want to stay in bed and do absolutely nothing. I should be reading the chapters which I mentioned but I can’t focus I really hope the professor postpones the test…she cancelled class on monday so I’m crossing my fingers! Anyway I should go and study…even though it’s like 1am…crap…
