Time Machine Needed

So it's been about ten days since I've been home, and honestly I cannot wait to go back already. This is going to be a very long summer I can tell. Mostly because there's almost always someone here except for maybe a couple of hours on my day off other than that people are here constantly. I really miss when it was just my dad and me living here, and I would have quite a bit of time to myself most days. Although I'm thinking about going to Idaho for fourth of July weekend with one of my friends which could be nice. At least it will give me a break from being home for a couple of days. I'm tired of everyone at work and at my house, and it's not even July yet. Someone please get me a time machine so I can skip past these three awful months. At least the Avett Brothers' album is coming out this Friday. I also should check to see if my grades for last quarter have been posted yet. They hadn't posted grades yet last week, so it's possible they've done it by now. 

The Countdowns Begin

Last weekend, I got to see Everclear which was really fun and amazing. I've been listening to Everclear my whole life, and I have always loved that song, "Wonderful," as well as many others but "Wonderful" was kind of the anthem of my childhood. Art Alexakis has always been one of my favorite musicians, but he's one of the few that I actually idolize as a person. He has overcome so much in his life that it's incredibly inspiring. I think he's the greatest musician to have come out of Portland, and he's definitely in my top three favorite as well as Bruce Springsteen and Scott Avett. Speaking of, Scott Avett, I cannot wait for the Avett Brothers' new album to come out. It's only 9 MORE DAYS until it's released. I also get to go see them in concert in July which I'm completely stoked for as well. There are so many exciting things going on in music that I'm ecstatic. I really can't wait until I'm a part of all of it. Someday, someone will be looking forward to something I recorded or something that I helped record, depending on what I end up doing. Either way someday someone will be anxiously awaiting a concert or an album or anything else that I may have taken part in creating, and that's honestly an exhilarating thought. I don't want to be famous I just want to make an impact somehow, and music will be the way I get to do that, and I can't wait. 

Coming Home

I finished finals, packed up my stuff, and now I'm home. It's safe to say that it's going to be a very long next three months. I've been awake for an hour now, and I can't tell if no one is here or if everyone is in their rooms being really quiet. It's kind of creepy. I'm pretty sure everyone has heard me get up, but that's because I had to do laundry and shower. Also showering was weird I got into the shower, and thought something doesn't seem right that's when I realized that I didn't have flip flops on to shower. I don't need to wear flip flops here to shower. It was strange actually being bare foot in the shower. Although it was nice to shower in a bathroom by yourself, same with not having to go to the bathroom in a stall, or having to brush my teeth at a sink with someone next to you brushing her teeth. I also have a room to myself even if it is full of my stuff from my dorm room. I don't have a grumpy roommate coming in and out of the door constantly while I'm trying to sleep or slamming the door while I'm sleeping or slamming the window shut. I only have my dog, P-Knut to share my room with. I did have a hard time falling asleep and staying asleep at first last night that's why I slept for so long today. I need to look on the bright side this summer though. I'm going to an Everclear concert tomorrow, The Avett Brothers are releasing an album in two weeks, going to the Avett Brothers concert in July, going to a Wilco concert in September, and The Head and the Heart are releasing an album in September, so it's going to be a good summer for music even if I'm stuck at home. This way I get to listen to all of it without being interrupted by homework or school or anything else. Although I do have to work, but oh well. It's going to be a great summer, for sure....... Ok it might be a bearable summer.
