| | when you finally get an AWESOME playlist on pandora.
i searched "cake," the artist and this is what i've gotten to listen to so far:
cake - guitar
weezer - island in the sun
the presidents of the united states of america - peaches
okgo - here we go again
cake - pretty pink ribbon
jack johnson - breakdown
modest mouse - paper thin walls
the presidents of the united states of america - boil weevil
eagle eye cherry - save tonight
cake - rock'n'roll lifestyle
modest mouse - fire it up
weezer - knock down drag out
red hot chili peppers - dani california
cake - end of the movie
i win! 4 songs by cake out of 14. not bad at all.
but you know what i hate? spelling the word guarantee. i had to spell check that three times before i got it right. the variations: gaurantee, garuantee, guaruantee. it's a stupid spelling. it should be garantee and save the "u" from feeling useless and invisible.
...
i'm living in champaign alone for a week and half. what i've discovered so far about being alone:
- i spend a lot of time doing dishes. you'd think i would have to do less but nooooo... but i must say i like my sinks empty and clean.
- i spend all of my time in the living room when i'm in the apartment. the only time i go into my bedroom is to sleep. and out of the 4 nights i've been here, i've slept twice in the living room because i got scared... i guess it doesn't help that the light switch in my room no longer works... during finals week, i flicked the switch, it gave a spark, and the light went away :( so now i use my reading lamp to navigate my room (even during the day sometimes).
- it's like a special treat to go outside and do something instead of staying inside on the couch. i went bowling thursday on my own. i was the only one there too. it was nice :) i broke my prior record of 132! i got a 147! yay! afterwards i had chick-fil-a. it tasted like high-quality chicken. they have really good waffle fries. yum. i sat and ate and read in front of the union. beautiful, peaceful day.
- cooking becomes a lot more fun. i made french onion soup! baked it and everything. although i didn't have any french baguettes so i subbed it with chicken-stuffing (the closest thing to bread in the kitchen). and mozzarella never tasted so good.
- light becomes as much of a comfort as the background noise from the tv. also my guitar is great comfort. i'm still missing the 6th string so i basically can't play any real songs... just ones i make up lol.
- junk food is enemy. i can never buy junk food when i'm living on my own. maybe something every now and then. but seriously, it's more of an enemy than when i was living in the dorms.
- i love the freedom.
... and that's all for this entry. less than a week before i get to go back to chicago, go camping, then start summer school. yay.
