I’m currently at the Daily office because it has become my life. I guess it’s a good experience. Go me. I am very tired and will probably make bad decisions. Oh well. As I type this I feel very monotone. Imagine Daria is saying these sentences. I feel like if I said something it would sound like that. I need to take it easy this weekend but that probably won’t happen. So sad for me. I should prob do my journalism homework right now so I guess I’ll get to that.



Music I’m looking forward to

Got out of the Daily early and had a chance to look through my new Rolling Stone and there was a fall music preview full of many albums I hope to own very soon. What am I the most exited about?

5.Snow Patrol- A Hundred Million Suns

Release date: 10/28

Here’s the first single, “Take Back the City.” There’s cool cosmic imagery in it and I think this album is veryyyy promising.

4.Oasis- Dig Out Your Soul

Release date: 10/7

This is “Falling Down.” I’m so psyched for this! It’s been three years since we’ve had a new Oasis album so this should be quite stellar! Oasis has one of those sounds that you get lost in. In case you can’t tell, I live for that shit!

3. Kaiser Chiefs- Off With Their Heads

Release date: 10/28

This is the new single “Never Miss a Beat.” I think it could be one of their best singles yet although I really do love “Modern Way.” Anywho, if this song is anything to go by, this album should be siiiick!

2. Fall Out Boy- Folie a Deux

Release date: 11/4

“I Don’t Care” is already a huge song and the video is awesome. Fall Out Boy has this adorable way of making fun of themselves and everyone else in the process. And they definitely are the most underrated overrated band right now. Look out for Sarah Palin in the video!

1. The Killers- Day & Age

Release date: 11/25

I absolutely adore The Killers. Their Sam’s Town tour is definitely one of the best concerts I’ve been to second to maybe The Red Hot Chili Peppers (and The Roling Stones, but I was 9 so I don’t remember it that well). Anywho this is the first half of the first single, “Human.” If this album tops Sam’s Town, it should be like a musical orgasm.

It should be one hell of a fall. Look out for album reviews shortly after release dates!

Also, I’m goign to see The Kooks in two weeks so there should be a nice review after that!!



And it Begins

After a weeking of advising and shameless partying, I find myself back in the throws of an absurdly difficult curriculum/ work schedule. How was I supposed to know that I would be spending 10 hours a week in the fucking Daily Northwestern office?? This totally blows. I can only hope it will all be worth it.

Whatever.

I have the most absurd love/hate relationship with Northwestern, but honestly, I wouldn’t trade it for anything. And I have finally caught up with all the people I didn’t meet last year! Hurray for NSW. And hurray for the adorable freshmen that have graced this campus this year. Thumbs down to the sloppy drunken idiots though.

Anywho, here’s to a new year of wonder and fabulousity!
