Wow! It’s been a while since I’ve done a personal update. Last weekend was wonderful. I got to spend a lot of time with Jenn. We went to a dressy jazz concert of Preservation Hall Jazz Ensemble from New Orleans. It was pretty darn good. They were an all-black band who played tons of moderate beat swing music. I was extremely happy that they called for people to dance to their last song. Jenn and I broke into swing and it was so much of fun. People were watching us as usual. I love it when people watch and are amazed to see youth into swing dancing. Sunday night, we went to a piano and viola concert. I don’t really listen to classical music however I enjoyed this gig. It had one light piece and rest of it being dark and somber. Jenn was surprised that I actually liked the music. I recently found the string quartet’s tribute to Cold Play, Evanescence, Red Hot Chili Peppers and Nine Inch Nails. I love Cold Play’s tribute! I might put a song up for taste.
My mentor was gone all last week. So, I was able to experiment independently. Everything went peachy till the last day last sample. I forgot to turn off one of the vacuum valves while venting almost killing the most expensive motor in the whole equipment. He emailed back today saying that it was a close call but the motor is alright. You can’t imagine how scared shitless I was! If that had actually broken, it couldn’t have been fixed for two months or more essentially killing the rest of the days I’ve left at ORNL
The past few days at Callie’s has been great! Apart from the initial scare of being unable to find my keys, I’e had a lot of fun so far. We met Callie’s best friend, ate tons of great thanksgiving food, watched a few movies, ate at a multicuisine restaraunt and an Indian restaraunt. I’ve had my fill of wonderful food that made up for the whole semester. I watched Crash last night. It was one of the most intricately assembled movie I’ve ever seen. It left me breathless. I can see why it was so critically acclaimed. I recommend watching it. It’s racism and social hierarchy at it’s most vibrant pinnacle. And to provide cosmic balance, we watched Just Friends. It was incredibly dumb yet funny at the same time. I had a tight stomach from laughing so hard.
I’m sad that this break is almost over. Next couple of weeks is going to be hell because I have a lot to accomplish.

Forever Young (Cover) - The Youth Group - Music From The OC: Mix 5
Let’s dance in style, lets dance for a while
Heaven can wait we’re only watching the skies
Hoping for the best but expecting the worst
Are you going to drop the bomb or not?Let us die young or let us live forever
We don’t have the power but we never say never
Sitting in a sandpit, life is a short trip
The music’s for the sad menCan you imagine when this race is won
Turn our golden faces into the sun
Praising our leaders we’re getting in tune
The music’s played by the mad menForever young, I want to be forever young
Do you really want to live forever, forever and ever
Forever young, I want to be forever young
Do you really want to live forever? Forever youngSome are like water, some are like the heat
Some are a melody and some are the beat
Sooner or later they all will be gone
Why don’t they stay youngIt’s so hard to get old without a cause
I don’t want to perish like a fading horse
Youth’s like diamonds in the sun
And diamonds are foreverSo many adventures couldn’t happen today
So many songs we forgot to play
So many dreams swinging out of the blue
We let them come trueForever young, I want to be forever young
Do you really want to live forever, forever and ever
Forever young, I want to be forever young
Do you really want to live forever, forever and everForever young, I want to be forever young
Do you really want to live forever?
I heard this song on the O.C soundtrack and it made me think about my time so far. I know I am still young, but I can’t believe that I’m 22 already. A single line in this song stood out to me: Hoping for the best but expecting the worst. I also assume for the worst hoping to God the best happens. Something like hoping against hope that hope prevails.
