The Best Day

Okay, so I'm exaggerating a little bit, but it's definitely been the best day since I've been out in Denver. It's a very superficial kind of happy, but you take what you can right?

Football season started today. Colts lost. Packers won. Couldn't ask for more.

Then the VMAs were on, and my favorite person EVER (Lady Gaga) won all her awards, including Video of the Year. She was so happy, crying and shit. I just admire her because she doesn't give a SHIT. Born This Way.

And I got to talk to a whole bunch of people from home. It's nice to be reminded that even though I'm alone here, I'm not alone really.

As I watch Eminem's new music video for "Not Afraid", which keep in mind I hate the song, it really puts the song into perspective. The video is so personal. You can see his inner struggle and the way he was forced to look inside himself in order to get out of the shithole he was stuck in. So I've decided that even though his music still sounds the same, it's different. Rapping can be a very pure form of communication. Not every rap song, but I think I misjudged the genre.

And while he stands up there pouring out his life, I take the link to my blog off facebook so not every person I know can read it. Hah. It takes courage to let people in, and I've used up all mine trying to survive here.

School starts tomorrow. I can do it.

Send Me to Wabash and Call Me a Sheep

Over the years, I've been a hit and miss blogger. I remember the cool thing to do in high school was to have a Xanga account, but that was silly adolescent bullshit. Then I tried blogging on other sites, but it never really clicked for me. So, here I am on blogspot, which seems to be the popular website of choice, trying to channel my inner blogger. I really got into blogging when I went away to Italy, so I'm hoping my upcoming changes and relocation to Denver will inspire something.

I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
Cheers.
