Comptine D'un Autre Ete

Yann Tiersen is a genius. The soundtrack to Le Fabuleaux Destin D'Amelie Poulain is amazing. My particular favorite is the track entitled Comtine D'un Autre Ete. I can listen to it a million times and still experience it in a new way. I sometimes feel like I'm drowning. Like I close my eyes and visualize the swirl of colors. Blues and grays. But its such a calming sensation that I think of fall and crisp leaves blowing on a cobblestone street. Oranges and Reds. But the youthful hopefulness makes me think of a small French girl playing in her green grass with her red beret. Hmm. This song is almost perfect.
I write about music in this blog quite a lot it seems. Probably because nothing in my life seems terrible significant. I'm definitely not complaining. Life seems to be going smoothely for a change. I'm going to try and enjoy it for as long as possible, and hopefully longer.
I did recently get my wisdom teeth removed as I'm sure you all know from my spamming twitter and such with complaints... sorry about that. I was quite fortunate in the sense that I experienced hardly any pain at all really. I didn't even take any vicodin. But they did definitely damage a nerve during the surgery because the left half of my chin, lip, and gums are numb. Its quite annoying. I really hope it goes away soon...
I found out that next year I'll be in Griggs and my roomie is named Paige. She seems nice, thankfully! Its a relief to find that out... now I just need to get the financial shit out of the way... ish.
