Goodbye Buckley!

Tomorrow is my last day of classes at Buckley and it's so surreal. I don't think it's really sunken in yet that we're all leaving what has been our routine, our home every day. This goodbye is bittersweet because I know that although I am leaving behind this phase of my life, I am entering a new, unfamiliar, and exciting one. So goodbye Buckley! I really am going to miss you.

The Tallest Man on Earth is the band and Kristian Matsson is the man (just as Bon Iver is the band and Justin Vernon is the man). His songs are raw and catchy and I've been a fan for a while. So when I heard he's going to release a new album in June I got very excited. Yesterday, they released a single called "1904" and I cannot stop listening to it.

Rolling Stone is allowing people to listen to the MP3 for free on their website, here's the link... http://mp3.rollingstone.com/download/1904.mp3

Here is my favorite of his songs called "The Wild Hunt."

Another type of blog I would post about is "how to." Here, I can introduce ways of completing tedious tasks or fun ones by introducing step by step instructions. For example, http://www.stumbleupon.com/su/8BXSBu/:+fEVs4uE:GCeb188T/juliannakunstler.com/art1_opt_des.html/

This shows how to make a cool design with very simple steps which I found on a website called stumbleupon.com

Creative Blog

If I were to do my own blog, I would like to not only include photos, but also art and design findings on the web from around the world. There are a lot of bands that use interesting and new ways to convey this through music videos. Some of my favorites are from OK GO. I would post my favorite from youtube, but I'm using a school computer and it wont let me access it. But it is called "This Too Shall Pass" the Rube Goldberg version. It's very compelling and interesting to watch, and the music isn't too bad either.

Creative Blogging

On the blog that I was describing before, thisiscolossal.com, the author does a special photo preview every week called "Flickr Finds."So on my blog I would like to do something similar called Tumblr Finds. Here are some photos I came across on tumblr this week.
