So, there's now another player (hopefully!) in our little GOLD STAR CHALLENGE! Oh, and for those of you who were wondering, that is it's official name. So, good luck, Kerri. And may the best person win.
Speaking of Kerri, I got to meet her for coffee slash lunch yesterday. It was pretty wicked awesome. Reminded me of the old days when we worked at Christian Supply, except that we actually had fun yesterday. Haha. After making a Mac appointment with the guy who was clearly doing nothing, and could have probably helped us right there, I got to show off my school. It's not that impressive of a place, but seeing as how I am there ALL the time, it was nice to have someone else see where I'm going. Besides, who doesn't like to have show & tell?
Well, I had class again today, as I always do. It was fine-ish. I did get done with my CAD project early, so my friend Shay and I walked to Starbucks and drank coffee and people-watched. And I almost fell asleep in those amazingly wonderful chairs. Speaking of that, I almost fell asleep in my lecture class too. It was just too darn hard to stay awake today, what with the weather being all warm and perfect.
But, there was something that made me smile today, even though I was sitting through a terribly long lecture class. Anyways, as I was sitting there, I smelled something. I know that usually means that it's something bad, but this was actually a very pleasant smell. But the weird thing is, is that I don't even know how to describe it. It was sweet, but not like fruit or flowers, but just different. I don't even know what it was. Well, the point to this is that I had one of those sense triggers, or whatever else they call them. You know, like when you smell Christmas trees and it makes you think of the holidays? It's all about those memories that we have associated with various things. Wow, this is a much longer explanation than I originally thought. Anyways, this scent reminded me of my house in Argentina. It just smelled like something familiar and comforting, but I don't even know where it came from. And after about three minutes or so, it was gone. So, at least for those three minutes I was super happy. I know this sounds ridiculous, but I've come to realize lately that if I don't find joy in the little things, I won't be able to see it anywhere. So, yeah.
I guess that's all for now. Off to do my Bible Study homework (which is due tonight!) that I've yet to start. Talk about your procrastination. Well...
...chau.
P.S. Today's song challenge is slightly unfair, I'll admit that. I'm pretty sure that Kerri is the only one who will know this artist off the top of her head, or the movie that inspired it. Everyone else will most definitely have to look it up. I'm not even sure if it's available on iTunes. And for that, I apologize. This title is just too good not to be in the competition, though. But then again, it is only the first person who answers who gets the points. So, technically, it's still anyone's game. Oh, and in case you haven't noticed, there's still a point that is yet to be claimed. Check the leaderboard for the 411.

Kitty Kat dirt nap. Honestly, I don't know where you come up with these. It's like all the normal band names were taken and they just drew words out of a hat.
Dang it! Okay, to be honest, I didn't even read the blog... I just read the title and scrolled down to the comments. I'll be a good friend now and actually go read your thoughts on life.
Actually, that's not the band I was looking for. It's another one. So, technically it's still up for grabs. Although Kitty Kat Dirt Nap sounds like a wonderful band name, so I might just have to go find music by them. Ah, genius!
Okay. So, I just looked it up on Google, and technically Rachel is right. So, I'll give her a point for that. But, if anyone else can come up with the other artist that I'm thinking of, I'll hand out another point. Deal? Deal.
Did you change this? I don't remember this being the title yesterday. You better not be cheating, Laura Grace.
All I got was a quote from Donnie Darko, which I do not believe is a song, no? Donnie Darko is a movie, and I thought this is song challenge.
Nope, didn't change it. It's still the same one it was before. You are right on both counts: this is a quote from Donnie Darko AND this is a song challenge. But, it does so happen that someone in all their genius decided to name a song after one of the best lines in the movie. So, yeah.
And I'll give you all an extra hint too: This song does not have any lyrics, which will make it a little tougher to find. The band starts with the letter "Y". And I believe that the "band" is just one guy. So, yeah. Maybe that'll help.
