i got into a heated discussion this past week with a few classmates of mine. i didn't realize i was the only person i knew who appreciates the fine musical stylings of phil collins. they don't know what they are missing:



against all odds, without a doubt, is one of my favorite songs of all time. weird, i know, and i admit i'm partial to the postal service's cover of it, but still. it's a wonderful love song.. who hasn't felt like that at one point or another? i was inspired, and not entirely out of spite, to learn how to play it on the piano, and have been pounding it out quite passionately for the better part of this evening.

i wish i was a foodie, because then i could be friends with anthony bourdain. if you looked up COOL GUY in the dictionary, i am pretty sure his picture would be there. i finally checked out a few of his books from the library recently, and i'm a little angry with myself for not doing it sooner. although i have no idea what the heck kuzu tagliatelle with ginger is, he is hilarious, the pictures are beautiful, and he is a great writer. in fact, i even asked santa for my own copies of his books. now if only i could get a full sized poster...

i've been holed up the majority of this weekend listening to animal collective. they are one of my very favorite bands, and i managed to get my paws on a leaked version of their new EP 'fall be kind'. it is so good. 'what would i want? sky' has been playing in my head nonstop, and i wish i could post the mp3 of it on here, but i'm not very savvy at all. they're an acquired taste, i admit, but if i've piqued your interest, i think 'fall be kind' is a great starting point for all you first-timers out there.

unfortunately, PSO is a no go. interested students were supposed to attend a meeting in march about doing it. drat.
