Looks like I'm not sleeping tonight!
No Doubt is kicking off the Today Show’s summer concert series. They’re playing at 7am tomorrow up at 30 Rock. Getting there at 5:30. Sleep is for the weak.
Despite the fact that my posts tend to be about the same bands over and over again, I actually have quite a wide range in musical taste. I just like writing about the bands that make me geek out. Apparently it’s not enough...
Language Barrier: Mothers and Text Messaging
Me: Mom, there is a raffle for extra graduation tickets to the CAS ceremony at Radio City where my name is called! Should I enter?
Mom: Oh Man, Leah! I wish they organized this sooner!!! Um, not sure exactly when Grammy and G-pa are coming that day...let me do some checking ASAP!!!
Me: Okay! Let me know by 5pm NY time, that's when the lottery is.
Mom: I'll try to get back to you toot suite!
Me: .....
Mom: What?!???
Me: WTF is "toot suite?"
Mom: I don't get it. What does "wtf" mean?

I guess I haven’t officially declared my post-graduation plans, but I think it is pretty widely known that I’ve decided to return to California. This was not an easy decision, and was one that I literally agonized over this whole semester. The pros and cons for New York and California were very different, but both very compelling. Stress caused me to just buckle down and decide, and I...
Aww
My dad just e-mailed me and asked me to use hand sanitizer after I ride on the subway because he’s worried about the Swine Flu outbreak in NY. I love dad’s that worry <3

Green Day’s new video for “Know your Enemy.” Just came out like an hour ago. Basically, the song and video are reassuring for the new album. Excited times 10, especially because tour dates were announced the other day!
lets go to the san diego show
Hellz to the yeah! It will be epic. Looking forward to your album review of 21st Century Breakdown as well :)

DILEMMA!
Jack’s Mannequin is playing tonight at Irving Plaza, my favorite venue in New York. It is roughly the same size as Slim’s in SF (my favorite West Coast venue) just as a point of comparison. I’ve seen Jack’s before, two years ago with Head Automatica, at a much larger venue (Hammerstein Ballroom - Dan and I went to go see MxPx, Reliant K and Rufio here and we almost got into...

Today, I saw a spider crawling on the floor but had nothing to kill it with and it hid somewhere. So, I got dressed and went out and come home for a shower, and as i’m taking off my undies something crushed and black falls out. It was the spider and he had been in my underwear the entire day. FML
My worst nightmare.

Last night, as I mentioned, was my sorority’s spring formal, which was AWESOME and I had a fantastic time. Baller private penthouse space on 59th street and 3rd ave with an uptown view right next to the Queensboro bridge. Gigantic balcony, which was perfect because it was 70 degrees last night.
Got ready and pregamed with Erica, three shots of coconut bacardi. Not delicious but it did the...

Easter Dinner at the Noto House
Yesterday, Tassia and I went over to Liz’s parents’ house for Easter dinner. Visits to the Noto Family Residence out in Bergen Beach, Brooklyn are always a treat, and that house has definitely become a home away from home for me. Not only do I love everything about that house and Liz’s family, Liz’s mom is quite possibly the best cook in the whole world. My tummy grumbles...
