I loved your memo, btw...

''It's not a memo, it's a mission statement.''

Btw, incase anyone missed out... I did a column on Kaci instead of M2M or Faith Hill this month. Exciting, eh? I totally pulled out the Kaci idea at the 11th hour. Oh yeah, Havan told me someone at school didn't like it because Kaci isn't a "new artist."

First off all (when you wake up in the morning and the day is shot! Find yourself complain' about the things u ain't got!), Kaci is NEW. At least, to Americans because I didn't cover her UK career at all. And second, the column's objective was "The Hit That Wasn't." It wasn't "The New Artist Whose Hit That Wasn't." Though, that would've been cool... I didn't do that. Kaci's singles are excellent-o and if you've seen her live (like I HAVE), maybe you would appreciated her good music too.

After all, research went out and audiences reacted to "Intervention Divine." The lyrics really hit home and Kaci made the song work.

I know "Butterflies Don't Lie," "I'm Gonna Break Your Heart," and the loads of other songs on her album are really, really good as well.. but hey, I had to cut so much that my column lacked a lot of gust-o. I tried so hard to capture all my intented wit and style without cutting too much. I can't include her whole album. That's why it's "The Hit," not "The Album."

How about my December column? It's hard to say now but Jo Davidson is in the running. But like Kaci, I might pull something out at the 11th hour.

Check out http://www.thematador.org (and maybe my column will be up by now).
My scores went friggin' down. That is not good but I can blame it on a two day fasting period... You don't know how hard it is to read friggin' stupid paragraphs about such and such and then do the multiple questions on an empty stomach.

I'll try to sell ads later. I don't think I'll be successful at all. I'm not a very good salesperson.

I was thinkin' about watching "Real Women Have Curves" today but plans were scrapped. I hate homework too. I hate taking tests. I like having "Cry" on my ringtone! Isn't that so cool? "I'll always remember... it was late afternoon." I also tried Fatty's "petite tiramisu" today. It is so good. I can't wait to drive so I can git to Old Towne time and time again.

That reminds me that I haven't been to Oreons for a long time. Their vegetarian food isn't bad and they have the best fries I've tasted.

Ok, I've thought about something to write besides Real Men and Women Have Curves.

I just don't get how people aren't as into music as I am. I have this whole thing like, "YOU ACTUALLY ALLOW THE RADIO TO TAKE OVER WHAT U LISTEN 2?" True, my articles and columns have always focused on how important radio is to new artists. At least, for NOW, you need to shake hands with Clear Channel if you expect to have a chance of hitting it back. Plus, the media and press release and stuff like that. It's crazy how people just listen to music but don't really care about supporting those artists.

Get out, buy those CDs! Join a street team. Spread the word. Do as much as you can so good music will spread!
Look at me. "Beautiful"
I love "Beautiful." What a 'beautiful' song.

Tim McGraw's "Red Rag Top" is one that's been growing on me since (maybe) a month and a half ago.
I might buy Christina and Tim's album. Might.

I don't want to go too deep into any thoughts today (not that I do, anyways).
I have "Breathe" on my ringtone. It sounds funky.

I'm listening to some new Krystal music. Neva thought I would say that.

I finally, finally have (sorta) my own cell phone. I'm trying to put a cool ringtone on it instead of doing craptastik Stats.
I'm @ school. I just need to vent. It's hard to rant in an enviroment like this.

Who the heck wants to listen to Norah Jones anyways? She sounds like a cat being strangled. The end.

I just noticed the logo doesn't quite work with this layout. It doesn't stand out enough and it's hard to read.

Instead of doing French hw, I'm here debating about a logo. I have to tell some artsy people about including their artsy photo set in an artsy location soon. I still have those artsy photos from the super artsy coffee shop.

Anyways, Shagg is down so I'm gonna transfer my story to be sent from another CPU. It doesn't work on my cpu for some reason. My CPU is werid. I hope it doesn't have some weird virus that doesn't let me visit sites like Carly Hennessy's.
Spiffy new layout. Well, only the top. :)

Minimially inspired by t.A.T.u.
The paper came out today. I always think "I could've just..." for whatever minor error I find...

Overall, I thought this issue was much stronger than the September one.

I do not GET the new Stat chapter. How the heck do y'all? Plus, I need to bid on my calculator.

I'm forcing myself to write about 'little things.' It's about time anyways.

I have to take down Nick's horrible two-day span song and replace it with the superb Kid Rock/Sheryl Crow "Picture" (Ok, ok.. I'm really slow in discovering this one. Sue me.)

Later tonight, I'll probably order my MCHNY stuff. Word.
I love my Winona Ryder! She is the coolest!

Is it me or am I suddenly warped into Jamie-Lynn Sigler's "Pressure" again?

I'm about to go to my lesson which I skipped out on for two weeks... and I did really well on The Corrs feat. Bono "When The Stars Go Blue" but I haven't practiced much! This week I'm bringing in Faith Hill's "Back To You." It shouldn't be too hard to play.

Next week is SC visit among other things named SATs II (too hood!) and CMAs (Faith!) and more NBC tv movies. Following that week is Sela Ward's book signing... and I need to finish/start "The Cider House Rules" for the book club. College apps and deadlines also fill up much of this worry. At least I can look forward to "Merry Christmas and Happy New York." I might also plan to see "Harry Potters" at a midnight showing... I am so involve with pop culture and media... Isn't everybody? A CD being released is a BIG deal for me (that reminds me of T.A.T.U.).

Monica's "U Should've Known" is so good.

This was a rant.
I had the strangest dream about Cerritos. Somehow I moved back before graduation day and everything just wasn't the same. Friends were not friends anymore. At school, everyone didn't recognize me. Then at Di-Ho market, some lady got into a fight over the price of a rug or something with Steven and it became cutthroat.
