buying a CD > downloading it online

Listening to: Still Take You Home - Arctic Monkeys
JOANNA SAYS:
New album artwork revealed!
August 25th. I'm psyched.
And if it leaks, I am NOT downloading it. There's nothing like rushing to the store on the release day, running to the aisle of the corresponding genre, flipping through the alphabetically-arranged albums, finding it, paying for it, holding it up, admiring how beautifully the light reflects off the clear plastic wrapping, excitedly ripping it open, throwing it into my portable CD player (which I will have brought), finally pressing play, and savouring every word, beat, and sustained chord on the bus ride home.

Technology deprives us of great experiences.


p.s. BE SURE TO EXPECT A REVIEW.

ON ANOTHER NOTE...
I'm graduating tomorrow. AHHH! I don't quite have a concrete reaction for that.... I'm nervous, sad, relieved, excited, nostalgic, and happy all at once. I guess I'll only know how I feel after my nerves have calmed after the ceremony tomorrow. I NEED TO BRING A CRAPLOAD OF TISSUES, THAT'S FOR SURE. I'll probably be back tomorrow to write a long and sappy entry to both summarize and conclude my high school career. *sigh*
Everyone needs one of those, I think.

Oh yeah, I still need to clean my room. Gonna do that now. LATER!
