I'M DONE!!!
One week ago my thesis was printed. Ninety something pages of crap.
Ok, so something are ok, but mostly it's shit. Needed a few more days... or weeks..
But when I don't obsess about all the mistakes I made it feels pretty good to be done.
Well, almost done.
Still have to give a 30 minute presentation of the thing, and then defend it before two other professors... But one month or so from now, I'm finished with school!! Yay!!! No chance in hell I'm starting a PhD.

Death Cab for cutie at Rockefeller. I'm happy that I decided to go. Didn't completely take my mind off my thesis. But it did for a bit.. I arrived just in time to catch the last two songs from John Vanderslice. Sounded pretty good. Death Cab came on about ten o'clock. Played a good mix of old and new stuff. They played quite a bit from Transatlanticism, which I was quite happy about. I like that album more than the new one. They were much more.. eh.. energetic.. than I had thought they'd be. The vocals was a bit overpowered by the guitars at times. Or maybe it's just my hearing that's getting even worse.. I need to buy earplugs with those filters in them.. If it's really loud I use those spongy plugs, but I really hate it. The music sounds all weird through them..














So here's what they played.. minus a few songs.. (played for about an hour an a half)
Marching bands of Manhattan
The new year
We laugh indoors
Why you'd want to live here
Title and registration
Soul meets body
Photobooth
Crooked teeth
Different names for the same thing
Amputations
What Sarah said
Brothers on a hotel bed
Expo '86
Sound of settling
End of first set
I will follow you into the dark
Tiny vessels
Transatlanticism

Yay! Finally got my student loan for this semester. So will go right out and spend it on such life necessities as the new Thom Hell record, and possibly also Minor Majority's new one. I know I said I would wait a bit.. but I've been playing the ones I bought a week ago to death.. so I need more. I might just go out and buy tickets for their concerts too..
Finally gave in an bought some chocolate chip cookies yesterday.. but I did manage to go 30 days without buying anything chocolate, and I didn't eat the whole box yesterday.. so I guess it shows some imrovement. I blame my constant state of panic.. need some comfort food. 2 weeks ontil my thesis has to be handed in! Why am I writing this and not the discussion part. QUIT IT!..
.... breathe.... so yeah, I have mixed feelings about the upcoming Death Cab concert. On the one hand I can't hardly wait. But then I feel I'm too panicky about the thesis, and probably won't be able to fully enjoy it. But I will go, but will probably drop seeing the opening act, whoever that is..
