Top Five Records

I used to have a little section on the site where I’d post my current favorite albums… I got rid of of it in the redesign in an effort to be as minimal as possible. So, for no particular reason, the top five albums I’ve had on heavy rotation lately…

• Santogold - Santogold
  I don’t know why… I just love it. Can listen to it all day long. Catchy as hell.

• MGMT - Oracular Spectacula
  Same thing. The songs “Electric Feel”, “Future Reflections”, and “Weekend Wars” will just get you.

• The Gaslight Anthem - The ‘59 Sound
  This album is just… fantastic. “Even Cowgirls Get the Blues” gets me every time… over and over again.

• The Bird and the Bee - Ray Guns Are Not Just the Future
  I just got this album a couple days ago, but I can tell, its a keeper. I loved their first album, and this one just spells to be so much better.

• Kanye West - 808s & Heartbreak
  No matter how much I don’t want to, I just love certain songs on it. Listen to “Bad News”, “See you in my Knightmares” and “Paranoid” a few times. You’ll see.

You can find more of my recent musical loves on my last.fm. ;)

*Cinema — Slumdog Millionaire

Slumdog Millionaire (2008)

• Yes, it really is that good.

• It deserves all the awards that its won.

• Its intense, while still having hope. Its a nice combination.

• Loved the acting. The child actors were just fantastic.

• Great soundtrack.

• Everything about it is just beautiful.

• Seriously… go see it. You’ll be happy you did.

The Dyad Invasion

My Social Experimental Psychology class did our first “social experiment” Tuesday night, on “Dyad Invasions”. A dyad invasion being a person walking in between two people obviously talking to each other. Basically we stood on a New York City street in pairs, two-to-three feet apart, and spoke to each other for five minutes at a time, to see if people walking by would walk in between us or around us. Every five minutes we’d try a new spot. We had three spots outside on the street and three spots inside the university.

We had another girl sit a bit away to take count of the number of invasions. I was surprised by how many invasions we ended up having… the average was probably around four, but we had one instance outside of thirteen and an instance inside (when some classes had just ended) of twenty-three.

We may not have discovered anything too exciting, but at least trying to make small talk with a partner for 45 minutes helped pass the time in my four-hour class.

Dexter Season Three

Warning: my review may contain spoilers… ;)

• Liked this season much much more than I expected to.

• I’ll never see Jimmy Smits the same way again.

• I had no idea Smits was actually a good actor. He’s talented.
