Ironic

So I'm sitting here at my laptop at home and I've just finished this week's song report for my Intro to Popular Music class tonight. This week's readings were based on Pop and R&B of the 1990s which of course is the best decade ever.

The song I chose? "Ironic" by Alanis Morrisette. Who doesn't like that?

“Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
When you think everything's okay and everything's going right
And life has a funny way of helping you out when
You think everything's gone wrong and everything blows up
In your face”

Pilot Entry

So I've decided to start a public blog here on Blogger. I feel like I need an outlet to talk about stuff openly without having to do it with Facebook status updates or Twitter tweets. I have a private blog where I go to vent my innermost frustrations which is awesome, but on the other hand I am lacking an outlet for my public persona so to speak. So this will be my new domain in the blogosphere.

Yesterday I posted my first entry on my Xanga blog for the first time in almost 3 years. My friend Susan is probably the only other person who blogs on Xanga on a quasi-regular basis. I want to keep it because of sentimental reasons - yes I'm all about the nostalgia.

It's the countdown to the last day of university for me which is December 3rd, 2009.... t-minus 22 days. Grad pics are next Tuesday.

So I'm getting over this awful cold I caught last week. I was fighting it on and off for about 2 weeks and then last Friday was when I had a full blown sore throat. Then it progressed to sneezing and runny nose, then the congested nose where I couldn't breathe through my nostrils at all, then the dry cough, and then the nasty productive chest cough - of which surprisingly only lasted a day when usually I would probably get bronchitis. I attribute this to some lo han kuo tea, chrysanthemum and goji berry tea, green tea, vitamin C, cold-fx, and hot yoga! Seriously my usual colds would normally last longer than this so it's quite a pleasant surprise.

Wow this is a pretty boring first entry... I hope I have more to talk about soon.
