Ummm....yeah, so those introductory thingys. I should warn you all right now that mine tend to be a little long because I like to explain why I ever ended up in a place.
So yeah...about three weeks ago I got fed up with the fact that though I had always loved Beatles music (in that transitory way where you know it not from seeking it out but from it simply being there), I didn't own anything and didn't know much about it. So I took a secret trip to my nearest Barnes and Noble (yes, sneaking out to a bookstore is about as crazy as I get) and stood in the aisle for at least a half hour deciding what I wanted to buy first. And then I was back for the next 2 weekends (I think maybe the only reason I haven't been back yet again is because I'm running low on cash to spend ) Anyway, the CD's I've bought have pretty much been a soundtrack to my life for the past three weeks.
Now that that's off my chest, a bit about me, I suppose. I'm 17, live in Southern California, and am a freshman in college. I also am a musician of sorts (though I'm headed more towards music teaching, I think). I play violin, piano, and I'm learning guitar since my dear wonderful parents got me one for my birthday. I also sing a bit, mostly for choir at church and school. I've been obsessed with scifi/fantasy since I was little (top shows would have to be Stargate and Doctor Who; books would be HP, LotR, Narnia...I can't list them all).
If I have not bored you to death...then congratulations are in order? Anyway, the point of this:
Hi
