where are you going, where have you been?

SO. where the fuck have i been?
well..
besideslivingadoublelife as a rockstar by night and an ordinary girl by day....

i have been:
seeing awesome concerts such as florence and the machine on 11/1 (her voice is even better live, her hair is very red, the costume was gorgeous and we were RIGHT UP FRONT and it was just amazing to hear her speak in her little british accent) & kate nash (well, thats tonight... so you know... i didnt see her yet. but ill get back to ya)

reading some good books on death and dying (not on purpose):
wintergirls by laurie halse anderson 5/5
the beginner's guide to living (forgot the author sorry. its YA) 5/5
you know where to find me, by rachel cohn 3.5/5
and i am rereading Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows right now =]

seeing Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part une
so good. emily was disappointed with some things, i am sure as i reread the book i will form a new opinion, seeing as the first timei read it i did the unthinkable and kind of skimmed because i really didnt like it but to me it didnt live up to the potential of the series and oh my lord i am going to shut up now before everyone kills me because i love harry potter i really do

apparently i was the star of the month at work in october and got an extra boost in my check. woohoo!
i dont even care that we are most likely picked at random and not for our work ethic

sitting in my friends cars til 1, 2, 3 am or later just talking just because

and the real clincher, going to denver colorado for the national women's studies association conference!
it was awesome being a part of such a collective of inspiring women, going to Shabbat for the first time, seeing all sorts of females and males decipher what it means to be a woman in 2010, and what it meant to be a woman before, and wondering how much this has changed, if at all. it was great to go out on my own without my parents, fly to another state- colorado is gorgeous-and just have fun. i never would have thought colorado would be so nice.

i've also been sleeping, forgetting to eat, eating things that are bad for me, and doing some homework and hanging out with emily. the life <3
