..check.. check.. one two... one two...
Well, 2 double 0 7's been packed full. Most of my free time lately has been occupied by the Be'elze-sweetie (see Figures 1 and 2). I have to admit, I wasn't fully prepared for the amount of time and/or energy that goes into a "relationship." It's been a while since my last one, and this one's been a doozie: love, lust, pool marathons, drinking marathons, late nights, late brunches, live shows, presents, learning how to voice grievances, re-callibrating from my singletude-I-do-what-I-want-when-I-want to a more team-oriented outlook, etc.
I've had the good fortune of seeing a shit ton of amazing live music: Mucca Pazza, the ultimate circus punk marching band of crazy live antics, Jolie Holland, the hauntingly beautiful alterna-folk songstress, and Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings, THE soul sista number 1 and an old Brooklyn favorite (not in chronological order).
Good Lord, good live music is the tits.
In other news, I'm finishing up my application to Volunteers in Asia. At first "Operation Bejing or Bust" was all about me taking the capital by storm, all solo-like. I've come along to thinking that I'd prefer the backing of institutional support, even if it does mean teaching English. If all goes well I'll be in Beijing by the summer.
AND! OMG WTF LOL - The SG Chicago CD swap was fan-fucking-tastic. I met a ton of great SGers and got 17 mixed CDs. I've been diligently listening to each one. New mixed CDs are also the tits.
That's all for now. Until next time.

I miss Chicago. I wanna go back soon. And drink beers with you and your compatriots.
