Song of The Week 10 and 11

I know I missed the song of the week last week. I don't really have an excuse other than I have been kick boxing a lot and it has been difficult to find time at night to post because after kick boxing I can barely lift my head up.
So this week I bring you two songs to make up for last week.

The first song is Hot Chip - And I Was A Boy From School. I picked this song because I heard it on Veronica Mars last week. Can I just say that if you are not watching Veronica Mars you should be. As Em said last night "This is how TV should be, every line is funny" it reminds me of how Gilmore Girls used to be when it started you have to really pay attention to catch everything.

The second song is Feist's version of Broken Social Scene's - Lovers Spit. I heard it in the movie Half Nelson this weekend and since (if you could not tell already) I am currently obsessed with Feist I just had to go out and find this song. It can be found on the EP Bee Hives by Broken Social Scene. You can find more info on the blog Quick Before It Melts where I found this MP3. Also Half Nelson is a great movie. Have you seen it?

So the original reason I started this blog was to write out letters I received while I was in Puerto Rico. I guess I kind of got caught up in the song of the week thing. I thought I would type out another letter because right now I am just sitting around trying to let my leg recover from a contusion I got while trying to kick my co worker during Khmer Boxing.
So here is another letter for you:
Hey Katie,
How are you? Thanx for calling, I just wish I had more to say. I'm sorry I haven't written. I have no excuse I'm just a lazy bum. That's what I feel like these days lying around , no job, no school, a bum. When are you coming back? I miss you so much! You should be in no hurry to come home. Santa Cruz Sucks! It's so boring here, only depressing things happening. There are so many sleazy men in Santa Cruz. They're everywhere. It's even worse than before. Well, I'm excited about getting a job and going to Cabrillo "C is for Cabrillo and that's good enough for me!" Ha Ha! I so many plans for my future that I'm over whelmed. Everyone is doing good here. I'm still worried about H and B. But I hope she will wisen up soon. R seems happy with J. A and A are a cute little couple. I think that A1 is in a sense rebound and A2 is an experience. That's okay though, they're happy right now. How about you Kate, how's the dating scene. I am jealous of you, you're away from Santa Cruz surrounded by new people, free from your parents and all this on a beautiful island! Live it up baby! Have fun while you can, we'll all still be here when you get back. We're the unfortunate ones without you around. I wish I had a walkman so no matter where I am I can listen to music and be happy. The sky is so beautiful right now. The stars have been so bright and powerful lately. I know I'm getting random here but it fits the letter since I'm writing to Random Girl! Once again I apologize for it being so long since I've written. I'm so bad with this stuff. Okay I'll go now and write you again another day, I promise!
I miss you-
I love you-
I envy you-
C

A few notes about this letter. Until I just read it I did not realize my friends were jealous of my trip. While I was in Puerto Rico I viewed it as something I just had to do like going to second grade is something you just have to do even if you don't want to. Also how cool is it that she wanted a walkman to listen to music all the time. Now that I have an I Pod I forgot what it is like to not have music all the time.
