In celebration of my 60th post I would like to write about three things that make me happy.

The Beatles.



This band makes me happy. I have YET to listen to one of their songs and not like it. My current favorites (it changes all the time) are: "I Want You," "Helter Skelter," and "Happiness is a Warm Gun." For those of you who have watched the Beatles Anthology do you recall the moment when Yoko Ono was first introduced? Do you remember the song that was playing? Just thinking about it gives me the chills! "She's not a girl who misses much/Do do do do do do- oh yeah!/She's well acquainted with the touch of the velvet hand/Like a lizard on a window pane..." This song is SOOOO moving in EVERY POSSIBLE WAY. It messes with your head because it begins in such a gentle manner and it ends with such energy, you would have never guessed it was the same song from beginning to end. Really, I cannot explain it. Please dowload this song and listen to it. It will change your life, listen carefully.

My siblings.

Really I have the COOLEST brother and sister one could ask for. They are both so chill and talented people. Very creative in every single way.

Andrea is one of the most motivated people I know. She is a radio dj (Dj D-Dre, 90.5 KSJS) and she interviews bands on her show. She also works for Warner promoting new music and is working her way to become a television personality. In addition to that she has two other jobs one at KSJS and the other as a nanny for twins! She is incredibly smart, talented, and one of the most caring people you will ever meet. Just ask her friends.


Jose aka Lil P aka Peeps Libertine is the COOLEST kid you will meet. He is only fifteen years old, but is one of the most talented young musicians I have ever met. He plays the guitar every single day and he has the advantage of having two sisters who take him along to every rock show that they can get tickets for. This kid has seen Interpol at least five times and is very proud of it. While he is not being musical he is pursuing his dream of being a filmmaker. He has quite the number of shorts that he's made with his friends and our cousins. Oh yeah did I mention that he also likes to skateboard and was also an aspiring rapper once?


I hope that I can write on a regular basis from now on, even if I am busy because I love to collect all my ideas and happenings so I can remember in the future. Here's me at Hoover Tower at Stanford University. It was taken about a month ago on a little outing that Jeremiah and I took to admire the awesome architecture and have lunch out in the sun. We did not have to go far because I live fairly close. I love the cardigan I am wearing...


Here I am on top! You can kinda make out the campus on the background...
