I feel so weird. To be honest, it's like being on E, that feeling of being tired but energized at the same time. Every breath is *felt*.

Anyway, I was watching the Alma awards because I decided not to go out with Ben to Looq Hard. Nelly Furtado performed this duet in Spanish with Juanes and it was solid. I used to hate on her voice because I saw her on some TV show singing live and it was God awful, but her recent Grammy performance rocked me and this was, as I said, awesome.

What else? I got "Everything is Illuminated" by Jonathan Safran Foer as motivation to get me to follow through with my book idea. If this dude can have a novel published by 25, so can I. I guess it helped if Joyce Carol Oates is your THESIS ADVISOR at Princeton, but whatever, connections only get you so far. You still have to deliver.
