Doesn't have a point of view

I just received that exciting news that the KWCW website it now fully updated. You can now see who is in the station, what show is on, and what song is being played.
In other news, by some odd luck I am now going with DJ Alex and David Mummy to see Paul McCartney in concert next November. Alex e-mailed us the day before the tickets went on sale and we agreed to make the trip to Portland next fall. Apparently, the tickets sold out within 5 hours of the box office opening. I have a long time to build up my excitement with this and to become more familiar with Paul's more recent work.
I had too much fun and too little sleep this weekend. Dragfest was amazing. I have never seen that concentration of Whitman kids dancing at once. Normally when cool bands come, it is just me and Eric and Elizabeth dancing (almost!). This is proof that their wish to have more energetic and dancible musicians come to campus would be well received. Elizabeth's sailor outfit was very impressive, especially considering that she sewed it herself. Eric looked, as Elizabeth pointed out, like a secretary, or a housewife from a previous era. Unfortunately, we only have 1 photo of us together and it came out dark. Maybe I will post it later.
Elizabeth and I tried to go see the shape of things, a student produced play, but it was full when we arrived. Prior to that was the Imagine celebration. It was interupted by a sudden thunderstorm and we all quickly moved inside. The performance were great and energetic regardless of the weather. We made Vietnamese jello for the VCC booth, and I will be slowly gaining weight this week from the many leftovers.
After how many years of wishing to watch it, I finally saw Dancer in the Dark. After seeing it, I guess I couldn't have made a good case for watching it at Sharon's house at those times when everyone agreed on a light, fun movie. I don't know how to properly critique a film of such serious subject matter. I did enjoy it though, especially how the musical scenes were so carefully created to make the character's life seem happier for her but not necessarily for the audience.
More good news to end my day: I fixed my bike with my own two hands and no one else's. Yea for me and for having my bike back in my life after such a long absence.
