Seriously disappointing
Ray LaMontagne is playing here on April 7th, the night I board a plane for Spain.
I know it’s Spain but it’s Ray. It’s going to take a few minutes to get over.
If you want the recomended Marisa experience be at all these shows in April:
Cold War Kids on the 2nd, Margot on the 6th, Ray on the 7th, Colin Hay on the 8th.
I’ll be at the last two only in spirt.

Help! I can’t figure out how to see my Tumble crushes. Where do I go?
Mine isn’t showing up. I think it might only work if you ‘like’ a lot of things. I only have a few things liked because now that I can browse everything I’ve liked I just want to see the really great stuff. I don’t think there’s enough to suggest which tumblrs I love the most.
Haircut
I just dropped $26 + tip on a haircut at Hair East and I love the results. I’m a parsimonious (vocab word, thanks) bastard so I’m used to going to this shitty place in town called Bucci where a cut is $10 period. A cut there doesn’t include them styling or drying your hair so I leave wondering if I actually received a good cut. It’s always hit or miss there (and the...
Maybe I shouldn't exploit my friends
Maybe I shouldn’t exploit my friends like this.

What the kids are doing
It’s is very cool right now, for young people of america, to gather friends and create acronyms out of your names collectively.
MAGMA is
Maite,
Anthony,
George,
Marisa, and
Amanda.
Click is easily the saddest fucking comedy ever. I definately bawled the first time I saw it and I can’t flip by it on tv without stirring emotions. Am I just a chick or what?
“Dear Marisa:
Thank you for applying to Emerson College. We have received your...”
– And so it begins.
Scrubs
I’m happy to say that Scrubs made me laugh tonight. Maybe they will redeem themselves and go out right.
Oh and, cheap fucking shot using “I Will Follow You Into The Dark.” Yeah, I cried. Whatever.
Plugging in for success in 2009
I sent my first college application to a college I actually want to attend last night.
I went to the callbacks for the school musical that I actually want to be in tonight.
It’s out of my hands.
Change of layout
I finally changed my tumblr layout. I like it. You should look at it. I’ll probably tweak it a bit and maybe add gesualdi to the picture but maybe not. I’m easy.

I think I’ve suddenly aquired green eyes. It took me years to notice my eyes were more light brown than dark, as I just assumed they were but today they look quite a bit greener, probably hazel. Is this weird?

I’m not sure what this means yet but I like it.
A poloroid a day for 18 years
This is awesome and very sad. Jamie Livingston took a poloroid everyday for 18 years: right up to the day he died.
I actually cried looking through the photos of his last month. Can you imagine?
I like this more than Noah Kalina’s Everyday photos. These show a progression of a man’s life, not just his looks or location. Still, thinking of Noah’s photos, I can’t help but...
My 2008, recapped
Morgan Tepsic did this here so I figured I should since he’s exponentially cooler than I am.
January:
I attended an intense Students for a Free Tibet conference and really started to feel like a part of the movement. I started watching Dexter. I genuinely started losing my mind because though my father had a car to give me, he wouldn’t give it to me. I ended up writing a 3.5 page...
