so coachella 2010 is,i think, one of the BEST lineups i’ve seen so far in my life.
i know that’s a total overstatement but if you have seen the lineup, you would probably be feeling the same way, if not, more. it just sucks that this year they are making concert goers purchase all three days which is around $300 (not including hotel stay/camping/food/etc.) and you know their reason for the change? and i quote, “BECAUSE.” unbelieveable, right? feel free to go on the website and look under their faq page and scroll all the way down to see the lame excuse.
well anyways, if you are going, cheers to you and your awesome expendable income.
i, on the other hand, will be probably be at home, day dreaming of sun burn/ ugly tan lines, 6 dollar waters, and sweaty indie children.

those who oppose twitter
5 bucks says you have one or have thought about creating an account. also, i’m 100% sure you have a facebook/myspace which is the same thing, except we don’t have to see a million photos of you.
so shut your mouth and stop hating already.

“ All I ask of you is one thing: please don’t be cynical. I hate cynicism — it’s my least favorite quality and it doesn’t lead anywhere. Nobody in life gets exactly what they thought they were going to get. But if you work really hard and you’re kind, amazing things will happen. ”
—Conan O’Brian’s farewell speech from The Tonight Show.

apple has finally released it! after months of rumors and speculations, apple has unveiled it’s new touchscreen tablet computer, the iPad.
it is said to be a cross between a smartphone and a laptop.
( to me it looks like a giant iphone.)
it features a large 9.7-inch colour touchscreen and allows users to access the web, email, music, photos, eBooks and games.
It also provides a powerful way of reading newspapers by combining the best of print and digital content into one powerful application as was demonstrated at the event by the New York Times.
The iPad will be available in 16GB, 32GB and 64GB capacity and features Apple’s own 1Ghz processor. It also has a Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connection. Models will also be offered with 3G mobile and data plans.
I’M JUST DROOLING WITH ANTICIPATION!
They are pricing the new device at about $399, upsetting some consumers who had purchased one at a previous date. All i know is, I want one. Santa Baby will you be kind to me this year?

Closet Digger
So I was going through my closet and I happened to find boxes full of photos, letters and mixed CDs.
I couldn’t help but dust one off and pop it in my stereo. The cd had the formats, the beatles, Teagan and sara, motion city soundtrack, ect. Definitely brought back good memories for sure!

2010 II
The beginning of the year has been a real eye opener. I realized that I must find what is truly important in my life. With that said I will be deleting all guilty pleasures. ie: facebook, twitter, blogspot, chictopia. Anything that I have signed up for in the last 23 years of my life. (not tumblr though. I could at least let myself have that.)
