Tumblr, CDs

Today marked the 3 time I created a Tumblr.  I originally made and deleted two other tumblrs couple months ago, but after watching Jason make one, I felt tempted again.  Of course, after about 5 minutes, I realized why I deleted it twice already.  I probably won't go back to tumblr but anyways, it's annoying how everyone seems to have a different blog - blogspot, tumblr, and wordpress to name a few.  I suppose I could do all that "RSS" crap and look at it all at once, but it just does not give me the same blogging experience compared to visiting individual blogs.  Things like background pictures and color are important because it says a lot about the person you know.

My Corinne Bailey Rae CD came in today.  Yay.  It wasn't nearly as good as her first album, but it's okay, I love her regardless.

On Jan. 25th (Corinne's album came out on the 26th), I couldn't help but to wonder if the album came out at 10pm Pacific time - since it was 1 am at East Coast and therefore, it was the 26th.  I browsed Amazon, and to my dismay, the album was NOT on sale on Jan. 25th, Pacific/Jan. 26th Eastern Time.

BUT, the interesting part was, that the mp3 CD version was already out & downloadable while CDs were still taking pre-orders.  I was actually quite tempted to buy the mp3 album instead since I did not feel like waiting two days for this highly anticipated album.

After much debates with myself, I just couldn't justify spending 8 dollars for an intangible "organization of sound and silence," aka music, especially when I could get the same thing for free, illegally.  Therefore, I decided to pre order the CD - for two whole hours.  And special thanks Elizabeth.  I actually don't know why she deserves one - she probably doesn't - but she did inspire me a bit to write two whole entries about cds and stuff.  man I'm weird.  My unfiltered thoughts are being regurgitated on to the keyboard without much thinking.  I must be typing 60 wpm.  This sometimes happens.  I'm weird again.  And since I'm writing incoherent, random thoughts, I'd like to have the new Apple iPad, albeit I was quite disappointed by it.  I hope more people, even strangers, read and comment on my blog.  Okay I'll stop.



This was taken at Upland High School, fourth of July.  I forget which year it was though.
