ZOMG IT'S CMJ WEEK!! The festival doesn't officially start until tomorrow...but I'm gonna have a lot of fun going to concerts this week between the festival and TMBG shows.
So far it's looking like:
Wednesday: Margot via CMJ
Thursday: TMBG in Farmingdale, NY (I wish I could also go to my friend's show that's going to include other kids in our department and bands such as Freezepop. It's not an official CMJ thing, but a "CMJ Party")
Friday: NYU Student band showcase via CMJ (I'm assisting my friend with sound since our program is putting this on)
Saturday: TMBG @ (le) Poisson Rouge
Currently we're doing fun perception stuff in my Brain and Behavior lecture. Somehow this week I have to fit in a lab report for last week's lab, lots of reading for Programming and Studio, and my midterm "essay" (3-4 page opinion piece/prediction) for Recorded Music Industry: Past, Present, Future.
I'm going to be exhausted but supremely happy this week. I will not, however, take
patnode's suggestion and turn to speed, but rather will probably end up nursing my growing caffeine addiction. Yum, coffee and chocolate and Mountain Dew.
Ooh, now we're talking about one of my vision problems: myopia. Really just eye structure in general and she went over how the lens focuses light at a precise angle and some people can't see the detail in things because they focus too far forward or too far back from the retina. Then we moved on to glaucoma. I wonder if we'll get to binocular vision and depth perception, the other area in which I am lacking...
I think I've said that I've been hanging out with the people next door a lot. They've talked about how I'm now part of their "family", and the fourth roommate of 2613. Also, they're dorks and created a wiki for themselves yesterday. The only pages that have been updated have been Val's (who actually went ahead and made it) and mine. Mine was only updated because Val got mad at me for whining about not being able to edit using Wiki code like you can for TMBW or Wikipedia. Then somehow (it was 4 am by this point, I don't remember everything) we got to talking about Dr. Strangelove and I started reading quotes off of IMDB. Val suggested we re-film it with me as Dr. Strangelove after I said one of his quotes. I guess my German accent is entertaining? It's not good, I can tell you that.
Well, I should probably start paying attention to lecture again. Ooh! It's almost half over!
