10:30 on a Friday night, I don't have to work til tomorrow evening, and I am.. printing off a paper for class and cleaning my apartment. Wtf?? Actually, the boy called and he invited me to come over and watch him jam with some new friends on bluesy stuff, but I declined. He sounded almost surprised. I really appreciate the fact that he called to let me know he was going to jam and what time (he thinks) they'll be done, and invited me to come over and hang out regardless. I'm busy gettin stuff done here, like sweeping my unholy mess of a kitchen/cat area and dealing with all the stuff that has seemingly exploded everywhere since school started.
During my cleaning, I found my entire set of cds! This makes me so happy, as I've had approximately 3 to listen to - an old compilation album that had been in my glove box, a burned copy of The Downward Spiral, and a new cd from People Noise, a non-local local band that was in town touring last week. I'm superhappy! Cause now I don't have to reburn MY ENTIRE SET OF EVERYTHING. And a lot of my cds I didn't even rip to my computer because 1) they're on my other, dead computer and 2) I, for whatever reason, only listen to them in my car.
I'm also going to take a moment in this post to inform you all that as of Valentine's Day, I won't be a member on SG any longer. There's a myriad of factors going into my decision, the biggest one being that I have other things the $50 subscription can go toward that are more important to me. I originally joined cause of a special, and the fact that I had always wanted to be an SG. However, noting slow trends and those sorts of things have made me reconsider my decision. Besides the fact that I want to work with youth and in America, you can't have the slightest blip on your record if you're doing that, I feel that Suicidegirls is looking for a more mainstream audience and therefore more mainstream models than they have in the past. This doesn't bother me - after all, it is a business - but I do think that I have more of a 'girl next door with a few mods' image while they're looking for a less playful, more sex kitten type sexy. I also feel that with the current standards seemingly constantly skyrocketing, plus fabulous set after fabulous set being rejected, it isn't worth my time attempting to send in a set at this point in time. I'm also not big on building community so it's not like I have any superclose friends to keep in contact with, I used to read the news a lot but with the new front page format it kind of got shoved to the side and I no longer remember 'oh yeah, let's read the news', and honestly, I don't even look at the sets much anymore because they do not appeal to me. And I'm busy anyhow. So it's in my best interests that I let my subscription lapse. Maybe I'll be back, who knows.
Until then, though, I'll still keep reading and updating as normal on here. You can always find me through my livejournal or through myspace.
