i've been converted. indie stuff rocks. i've spent the day downloading music and looking at
this website, and wow, there's so much stuff i want to download. all sorts of things really, not just indie... blonde redhead, floraline, the postal service, xiu xiu, the smiths, scissor sisters, frou frou, stereolab, franz ferdinand; some of the stuff i've downloaded today. and so much more i'll download tomorrow! death cab for cutie, the strokes, del rey, pj harvey, yeah yeah yeahs, things i'd been meaning to download for months. so much fun.
so suddenly my ipod is filling up... started with 1100 songs, now i've got 1500. bwahahah. i feel like the world is in my hands. for the moment, floraline's my favourite. just the way HAS to be the best song ever (thank you
jana-babe, for all the great suggestions). this is great. do i love broadband, lol. and soulseek is absolutely great, so much better than all that kazaa bollocks.
anyway. apart from downloading music, i haven't done anything... just sitting around, reading... and that's it. tomorrow night i'm going up to harlow, because it's jay's birthday on thursday; i'll spend it with him, and am coming back here on friday. should be nice, seeing his family again (they're wicked, they really are). i need to think of a present though. i don't really know what to do, he says he doesn't want anything, but still? i already know i'll write him a letter and a nice hand made card... after that we'll see. the fact that i'm kind of broke doesn't help, obviously.
lalala. and now i'm gonna get into bed with my book (drop city by t.c. boyle, extremely good) and my ipod and stay up until some ridiculous hour reading. nice.
The Garden State soundtrack has a lot of really good indie bands, you should check out the movie AND the music, both of which are awesome.
