Randomosity

I'm working on my website project for New Media right now and I kinda want to throw my computer out the window, but instead I will refrain and take a break from that and just write a random blog.

I love Pavement so much. This band is my musical soulmate. And I don't use that term lightly. They are the only boys that have never let me down. Even if they aren't reuniting to play at Coachella this year. Someday soon they will reunite and I will totally see them live someday.

I want someone who will stay up all night sitting outside drinking hot chocolate with me stargazing and talking about anything and everything. I want someone who will stay up all night to watch the sun rise with me, just because. Someone who will sleep in late with me on Saturdays and read the paper and drink coffee with me. I want to find my perfect match. I'm slowly realizing this as I am coming out of my jaded phase. I really do want something like this, I'm just scared that when I find that again I'll just get bored after a year or two again. How do married couples stay together for so long? Maybe I just can't wrap my mind around that yet because I'm still young, but it just amazes me that two people can stay happy for that long together. My parents always told me that you go through ups and downs in marriage and that real love is sticking with that person through all of it. And I understand that, I do. But when do we know when the right time for that is? Is it a certain age, or when we meet a certain person we just know? I'm not sure yet.

I want to spend more time communing with nature. I have a whole bunch of nature around me, but I hardly ever go out and experience it. Maybe one day a week I will go sit by the pond and read or go explore in the arboretum.

I never thought I would become an avid coffee drinker. I used to hate the taste of coffee, even when it was mixed in with other flavors like certain drinks at Starbucks. But now I enjoy black coffee. I can't really function properly without coffee. I guess that's what happens when you get older. New acquired tastes.

After college I just really want to take a couple months and backpack through Europe. I want to save up some money and do that before I start working in the real world. I want to see the Eiffel Tower and Big Ben and all the museums and history Europe has to offer. I want to try new foods and broaden my cultural horizons. I want to go to Ireland and Italy and see the places my ancestors are from. I want to feel a connection to something in my family's past. I just want more answers to life's infinite mysteries.
