rain spoils things

salem. is. soggy.

oh man. i never thought that i, candyce, could ever possibly get sick of the rain. however, i can, and i am. the thing is, rain finds its way through everything. its seems all the roofs here at camp ywam are leaky, and thus moldy, and quite frankly, its smells. like dead bodies.

but enough about that. so, everyone here has pretty much horrid taste in music. i prayed for a music buddy, but none arrived. there is one potential music buddy, but i dont think its going to work out. perhaps this is the end of my music snobbery. i've been accused of this before, and really, im nothing in comparison with my oldest sister lindsay. shes leagues ahead of me in that department. half of the time i mostly just pretend to know what shes talking about when she starts rambling off some hip new bands. sigh. the thing is, ive tried liking silly bands, but i cant.

right now, im sitting in the cafe (i work here) and i am listening to the soundtrack to amelie. its beautiful. but nobody gets it. i lit candles, even. so, goodbye music snobbery. now, i can move on and start (hopefully) to be sincerely interested when someones starts talking about that jack johnson concert they went to last summer.

the strannigan sisters share some common traits:
1. the innability to have boyfriends.
2. the propensity to write (and write rather well)
3. the tendencey to write where everyone and their mother can read our deepest thoughts/observations (blogs, in other words)
4. we all like to pretend we are muical snobs.

i think that deep down inside all we really care about it sharing the emotions we experience when we listen to "good" music.

keep up the good posts!

i agree with what she (danielle) said.
but we all know where we came from (the days of silage and the huntingtons and dakota motor co and amy grant and "SADDLE UP YOUR HORSES WE'VE GOT A TRAIL TO BLAZE" - so how snobby can we be?

I even went through my dashboard confessional phase.
