Classics
I remember when I first heard this song, it was being featured in Borders (SO HIP!) and I was transfixed right away. I scribbled Interpol's name on a scrap of paper and researched further when I went home. Interpol was probably my fav band for like 4 years, until their recent CD disappointed me. I just don't know if they can produce something as wonderful as their first album. Anyways, this song is awesome. In my This is Why I'm Single world, I've often imagined whoever my current crush is surprising me and coming around when I'm down. Which, has yet to happen. Oh.My.Life.
Something to Put my Life (and maybe yours too) into Perspective

more broadway
Spending another night listening to Broadway tunes on youtube (THIS IS WHY I'M SINGLE). I've also started listening to Disney tunes in honor of my upcoming trip (!). Anyways, this song kind of relates to my life:
EXCEPT:
-I left Rochester not because of a man but because of a pathological fear of being stuck in Rochester (though, it is my home that I love and don't want to return to).
- My parents didn't resent me leaving.
- I don't have a man who made me change all my dreams.
So, it doesn't really relate to my life. But it is a fitting musical to write about on the start of Passover.
Ruth lent me David Nicholls's newish book One Day and it is FABULOUS. It basically follows two friends, a boy and a girl, on one day of their lives every year. They're in their 20s right now and I can relate so much with the girl, Emma. Such a good read. And here's something Dexter (the boy), wrote to Emma:
"You're gorgeous, you old hag, and if I could give you just one gift ever for the rest of your life it would be this. Confidence. It would be the gift of confidence. Either that or a scented candle."
This post was badly worded, but that quote is wonderful.
