I almost also added “Also get an apartment,” but that should be fairly easy once I obtain a job. I will admit to not having looked with ultimate authority yet, if only because I’ve had to play two shows in two days, both of which I booked before the gravity of my own situation politely slapped me on the cheek. I know I have a lot of lofty goals up here; with any luck, this is the next one I check off.

(Also, for the record, I already have a job; I, of course, being an American with an English Literature degree, need another one to make ends meet. In all likelihood, neither of them will have anything to do with postmodern literature. Kids: Don’t let your friends major in the liberal arts.)

Here is a video of myself graduating college. All I had to do in order to get my degree was email in my final paper for English 132; summarily, I do that.

43 Things user Alison Staudinger and Mr. Jim Beam make appearances.

1. The song was “Emerald Sword,” by Rhapsody.
2. The MIDI aped every facet of the song, including the harmonized guitar solo.
3. According to the video screen, which was mostly in Korean, the song is in C Minor.
4. The video screen also showed us pictures of windsurfing, sheepdogs, dirtbikes, and bellydancing.
5. The kareoke place also had Hammerfall and Stratovarius songs, also done in MIDI.
6. In sum, there are things in life you will not know that you need to do until you realize you can do them.

The kareoke place is located on Rt. 9 in Hadley, MA. If you are driving to Northampton it is on your left. It is part of a fantastic Korean restaurant which has some intense kim chee and you might want to go there first. Also, while I was waiting with my friends to be seated at the kareoke place proper, I definitely saw someone bring in a cooler of beer, so that is also possible. Everybody: Please do this.
