A dream

I had a dream that my family and I were given the ability to go back in time, knowing what we know now, which made my family and I appreciate more in life (you know, the simple things), and gave us an economic advantage of being able to prepare for the harder economic times of the present.

Then I realized how foolish and wishful that was, and that I can go ahead and do that now while I'm preparing for a future time and a destination, unknown.

music

Though I hear you call my name
and knock, knock on the ol' front door,
I made sure the door was locked,
so I can hear ya shout,
'Hey let the hostage out.'
Boy, you sure seem so upset, talkin' through the megaphone,
While I'm creepin' by the curtain,
and pretending I'm just crawling to the kitchen
and pretending I'm just crouching in the cupboard
and pretending I'm not home.
-Heywood Banks

I am feeling this song. I've not made an attempt to really get away for my apt. for a while and I've been feeling pretty content, or too lazy to do anything about it. Also I've been stressing about term papers and semester tests coming up soon, Ahhh! I usually don't stress this much, I mean I do stress, but not this much, and yet I have a calm, cool (pretty much lazy) exterior.

I should maybe change the title of my blog to "I need to get myself into gear." But, in my defense, it helps to write about it and get it out of my head rather than hole up and 'pretend that I'm not home.'

Also another musically related topic. Ever notice how often the songs you hear on the radio that are "top hits" are either track 3 or more often, track 4 on the album they were released with? Strange isn't it? It's like they're putting their home run hitter fourth to bat: They load the bases with their single hitters and then send em' home with a grand slam. I'm not sayin it's always track 4 but it does happen often. So often in fact, that their might be a a conspiracy about it and how record companies are always promoting the 4 song in an album for some insane reason. lol

Eurotrip

This was a Art History class project that I was working on in which we needed to try and plan a trip to Europe so we could visit a bunch of "objects" from Art History.... for lest than $1000 dollars. So here are some websites that might help in trying to plan your trip, I mean hey, $1000 dollars is really good, but there was no way it could be done and still afford the overseas plane ticket, So the trip my group planned started in Rome, Italy and included travel admission prices, some tours (with guides) and hotel, not food though.
