It is February 20th, 2011. I think I’m overdue for a post.
Right now I’ve been keeping myself busy with school work. I have 3 computer courses (UNIX, Multimedia, and Modern Office Apps) a Western Civilization course, and a Hermeneutics course that is definitely kicking my butt, but I’m glad for it.
I bought myself some new computer speakers that came with a subwoofer which isn’t making the girls who live above and below me too happy, but haters gonna hate.
If you’re one of those girls, this is what you’ve been hearing lately.
Radiohead – The King of Limbs
I like it. It definitely has a more dubstep feel with lots of Hail to the Thief type lyrics and tones. But Radiohead is Radiohead, man.
Sleigh Bells – Treats
I’ve been working out what this group sounds like. The best I can come up with is, a-not-annoying-Ting-Tings-meets-the-guitars-from-The-White-Stripes-(RIP)-Icky-Thump-with-some-electric-blasts-thrown-in. The cheerleader drums and violent guitars create a cacophony around the singer who seems to be calm in the eye of this sound hurricane.
James Blake – James Blake
I admit it, I only even thought to listen to this guy because he got a 9 on Pitchfork. But still his cover of “Limit to Your Love” was one of the first things I listened to on my new speakers and I think I almost broke my little subwoofer with it.
On to other things.
I designed the Smart 2 floor shirt this year and they just came in the other day.
Final Design
And for those who are curious, here is the original image I stole from somewhere.
Just a tad different
It’s been a good semester so far and I only hope it gets even better. I truly love Smart 2 this year. We have way too much fun.
Also, I applied for RA for next year. I’m very excited at the possibility of being an RA.
