age.

So if you multiply the title of this post by five you get the age that i just turned!
yes thats right, i just turned twenty!

its a weird thing turning twenty, weirder than turning any other age as of yet. making that transition between teenager to adult seems to become more real when twenty hits. i know we've been in college for two years, and that alone should count as a symbol of adulthood, but turning twenty really seals the deal. Technically no longer being a "teen", i feel like i can now officially identify with being an "adult".

pretty good birthday weekend. having a june birthday i've gotten use to non extravagant celebrations. most people are at home or on vacation therefore not around to celebrate, so birthdays have never been a huge deal to me. went home for the weekend, hung out with the fam, said goodbye to some friends moving away, and hung out with some old friends that were actually around, and then headed back to LA. Blaise was back, had some friends over for dinner, and got slightly more intoxicated than i had hoped. oh, the life of a college student.


new performances up on the FUEL website. Check it out!


Cut Copy: "Lights and Music"



thats all for now.

peaceee

bon iver.

currently sitting at work and rather bored,
so lucky you - two posts in one day!

so maybe you've wondered why the blog's name is 'skinnylove'...

well i stole the name from a Bon Iver song called "Skinny Love".

Bon Iver is a recent ipod favorite. Justin Vernon, the man behind the music,
took the name "Bon Iver" from the French phrase "Bon Hiver" meaning "good winter".
PSR of sorts? Going to Paris in the fall!

some lyrics for you-

//i told you to be patient
i told you to be fine
i told you to be balanced
i told you to be kind
now all your love is wasted?
then who the hell was I?
now i'm breaking at the britches
and at the end of all your lines

who will love you?
who will fight?
who will fall far behind?//
