Being lazy is like active pessimism.

Also, I rode a dolphin today. It feels like an injustice to the experience when I say it was really, really cool. It was much cooler than that.

This is probably a little premature, but...I'm going to see my favorite band play in Salt Lake on September 18th, and I'm so freaking excited about it!

The Fray? I'll totally be there. ;D

Nope. Making April. They're playing in the Avalon Theatre.

Huh. I had no idea. Oh well. As much as I like Making April, they lose to the concentrated awesome of Meese, Jack's Mannequin, and The Fray in one show. The Fray in particular - I've seen them before and they put on a spectacular show.

Jack's and The Fray? Wow....That's pretty cool. Still, though. I've never seen Making April and I missed their concert back in April. I refuse to miss this one. I love them too much for that, and when I think about meeting the band members. Ah. I can't wait.

Ryos--my sister just informed me that the concert you're referring to is this 18th. I was referring to September 18th. That's when Making April is performing...And now I really want to get down to SLC for that concert in 2 days...Shame it'd cost me 80 bucks.

I recently upgraded my MacBook's hard drive to 500 GB. Woohoo!

Picking a good name for your hard drive is never easy, at least for me. This is especially true now that I have a Boot Camp partition to name as well, and I want its name to play off the one I give to my main partition. I'm not content with "Macintosh HD", oh no - I want my drive names to be at least a little bit clever. In the end, I named the Mac partition "Vasher"...and the Windows partition "Denth". ;D

Ah. I am done with school this semester. I just turned in the last of my assignments for my tour classes (the 10 credits I took from the British Literary Tour that I went on). I feel good. Real good.

I revised my story from 12,000 words to about 4,000. I'm pretty happy about that.
