There are so many things I need to or should be doing right now but can't for one reason or another. I need a job and one that I actually respect. I need to write music & record it. I need to make better contacts and stay in contact with them.
I went and saw Walking with Dinosaurs. It was awesome but it was also really nice to go to something like that. Something where its inappropriate to drink or to be on anything or to be a displayed, extreme version of yourself. Sit there, watch, be entertained.. even learn something. The one thing I wish my parents taught me was that coolness didn't matter and that if I thought something was cool then it was cool and it didn't matter if no one agreed. I'm happy to be getting to a point that my confidence in my opinions isn't projected through rants & outbursts and I am who I am.. comfortably. I'm working on being so passive aggressive now.. I'm perfecting smug, cold composure and my brief DC lifestyle gives me too many outlets to practice on.
The new Paramore is good. I could deal without the few "we're probably the best band ever & you should know that its awesome that we didn't break up" (i.e. "looking up" & "where the lines overlap") tracks but everything else is awesome. I'm relatively hooked on "the only exception." Hayley Williams is definitely growing as a writer and that is refreshing & inspiring.
