| I don't know about this gmail thing |
[06 Jul 2006|02:43pm] |
OK so I have a question for fellow gmail users out there. I just tried to send an e-mail to some friends that I haven't talked to in a long time. Chances are some of their e-mail addresses don't exist anymore. However, whenever I send an email in hotmail or any other place, it would just send the email to the addresses that exist and send me something back saying some don't exist, and then I could figure out who's new addresses I needed. But when I tried to send in gmail, it wouldn't even let me send the email out at all since a few of the addresses weren't right- but it wouldn't tell me which ones! I kept deleting some and trying over and over, but it never worked. Any idea how to get gmail to tell me which addy's are wrong? It wouldn't even let me save the damn thing! I can't use this as my main address if it's going to do this!
Help!!

| Caitlin sent me an LJ nudge |
[19 Jun 2006|09:11pm] |
So I decided to update. Since when have they had "nudges" anyway?
Most of you already know, but I'll be going to Mali at the end of July for the Peace Corps to do natural resource management. Mali is in West Africa and one of the poorest countries in the world. I'll learn the language, called Bambara (French is the official language but only spoken in the cities), live in a village with no running water or electricity, and travel from village to village with a mountain bike. It's going to be quite interesting. Any advice would be helpful.
In other news, I ended up going to Bonnaroo last minute with my mom and we got VIP tickets on ebay for half of what they normally cost. It was really awesome. I'd have to say Beck, Tom Petty , and Ben Folds were my 3 favorite shows (since I had seen Bright Eyes and Death Cab already), and Radiohead rocked too except that I thought I knew a lot more of their stuff than I do apparently because most of the stuff they played I didn't know. However, they played Karma Police and Idioteque so that pretty much won me over. In 2 years when I get back, I really would like to get a big group of people to go so if you're interested let me know!
Other than that, I'm in Roanoke until I leave for Mali but I'll be taking some trips to Charlottesville and Nova so if you wanna get together before I leave let me know. I'd love to see all of you before I go!

This week has been so up and down for me. Half of me surges on in the goal to end human suffering and try to help people and the other half is ready to say fuck it, its too hard to help people when no one gives a damn about your cause.
The past few weeks I have been so emotional, up and down all the time, it's frankly just exhausting.

| oscars! |
[05 Mar 2006|11:53pm] |
So Crash surprisingly won the best picture award for the oscars tonight! This excites me greatly. Not that I would have been upset if Brokeback had won, and I think it's a great picture, but I think it would have won more for political reasons, plus it got the Directing award. Anyway, Crash is honestly one of my favorite films to date and I thought it would get shafted tonight but it got the credibility it deserved. Rock on.
Also, so last night I rewatched Memento for like the 20th time, but I hadn't seen it for about 3 years, and I swear I found out even more. Every time I watch it there is something new, even if I think it's not possible. It was also interesting to see it from a different perspective and analyze it in a different light since I've gained so many different viewpoints throughout my college career.

Ouch I have lost myself again
Lost myself and I am nowhere to be found,
Yeah I think that I might break
I've lost myself again and I feel unsafe
Be my friend
Hold me, wrap me up
Unfold me
I am small
I'm needy
Warm me up
And breathe me

So life lately is good. Less stressful without Game Theory (although I'm not putting my extra time into things like the University Giving Tree or my future like I should be- ore like, I'm putting them into planning old school parties). I've had a lot of fun, I'm enjoying my classes, and Kaine won! I swear, I'm getting more faith in Virginia than I am in America, which is crazy. Annnnd, on Friday I get to go visit Kayley in Canada! Wooowoo!

Yay for awesome weekends and party hopping and Kings Dominion and haunted houses and going to bars in costume and awesome people and gaining an hour.
Boo for religion tests that I'm understudied for and for coconut shrimp making me ill.

| music update |
[14 Oct 2005|03:52pm] |
So since I finally got Internet here I have been downloading music like crazy.
Highlights:
-new Franz Ferdinand = great, better than the last album and lots of fun
-new Coheed & Cambria- also good, but a pretty similar to their last album and kinda creepy
-Fiona Apple - Extraordinary Machine - Excellent, excellent album. I don't even like Fiona Apple much, but this one is just great. It's entirely different from anything else that's out there.
-the free Itunes download for last week was James Blunt- I don't know anything about him, but the song "High" is fabulous.
Also, Wednesday is the U2 concert in DC. Christa and I are gonna get there early in the morning and stand there all day. I can't wait, I think I might die.
The following Sunday is Death Cab in DC as well.
It's going to be the best week ever.
That is all.

Who wants to go see OAR with me next week in at the Charlottesville Pavilion???
|
|
|
[22 Sep 2005|08:05pm] |
Cause I like cars more than telephones
Your voice in my head makes me feel so alone
Tonight I'm gonna drive
The silver moon is shining bright
Over the interstate
God saying hurry don't be late
Soon the sun will rise
That's when the romance dies
And I'm just tired of running around
