Brown 2010!

<p>Marxism over tea. I did that once… although, it was southern sweet tea and on a mosquito-infested night (but of course–I live in Florida, land of swamps).</p>

<p>Marxism and tea at Brown should be several steps up from that.</p>

<p>kids…i leave for summer@brown a week from today. i will be there for three weeks and i know i am going to fall [even more] in love and be absolutely heartbroken if i am not accepted…</p>

<p>Fids: no no no I do!!! Ani’s all mine!! :smiley: </p>

<p>Adero: Bela fleck and the fleck tones also rocks my world. </p>

<p>BTW I’m an 08 transfer student. Couldn’t be more excited.</p>

<p>adero – you can always apply to transfer. the acceptance rate is higher than for freshman. That’s what I did, and it WORKED. Third time is the charm…</p>

<p>I’m so addicted to that song, “Not A Pretty Girl.”</p>

<p>“I have been working all of my life, and I am a patriot, I have been fighting the good fight. But what if there are no damsels in distress?”</p>

<p>oh, I’m going to be at the Brown summer program for 3 weeks too!
But, I’m in 3B (starts from July 17th), not 3A…
Which course are you taking?>aderoberts</p>

<p>Effulgent omg that was the first ani difranco song i ever heard <em>swoon</em></p>

<p>“what if there are no damsels in distress, what if i knew that, and i called your bluff. don’t you think every kitten figures out how to get down, whether or not you ever show her?”</p>

<p>i am taking philosophy east to west. it’s kind of a comparison course; i am very excited.</p>

<p>That course sounds interesting:)
I’m taking the integrated course with RISD.
I think it’s called Fashionioning Ourselves: The Fabric of Identity…</p>

<p>Do any of you guys listen to Imogen Heap? She’s one of my fave songstresses.</p>

<p>I like her better than Ani DiFranco (whom, I have to admit, I’m not a HUGE fan of).</p>

<p>haven’t heard of her…will check out. limewire here i come…</p>

<p>What are the best Ani songs? I have like 20 burned on a CD (although, they’re all from different albums).</p>

<p>imogen heap! yes! discovered thanks to the last episode of the OC. see, it’s good for something!</p>

<p>i have to disagree! I love the show, but I hate what it does to good music. I remember right after the season finale last year, when they played “halleulja” or however you spell it by Jeff Buckley, it was #1 single in the itunes music store. Maybe I’m being a snob, but I don’t feel like songs like that shoul dbe consumed like Britney Spears songs by angsty teenagers. I’m definitely beign a snob haha</p>

<p>Speaking of Limewire, I’m a technological ditz, so how do I get my limewire tunes onto my itunes library itself so I can add them to my ipod? Muchos gracias!</p>

<p>Well, I definitely understand your point, but I guess I view it more as educating the masses and bringing good music to people who only know Britney. I think that often people like being the only enlightened ones; their enjoyment of the music decreases when everyone else catches up, nevermind that the music hasn’t changed at all. I’m guilty of it too though, no worries!

  • sneakypete, who will still be downloading whatever songs she hears on the oc (legally)</p>

<p>If that’s a pointed remark in my direction: Guilty as charged, but hey, at least I download from itunes, too. I’m half guilty…which is still guilty…</p>

<p>haha no, LP, it wasn’t. started typing that before you posted. funny though</p>

<p>I must confess…I am a huge music snob like that as well. I used to LOVE Jeff Buckley–you should check out his album Grace if you like Hallelujah, even though all of the songs are totally different–and when everyone was talking about that song and asking who it was by post-OC season finale, I became less enchanted. I think the original version of the song, which is by Leonard Cohen, is in Shrek.</p>

<p>Anyway, I know that it’s TOTALLY lame and hypocritical to be a music snob like that and to like lesser known musicians more (and keep them to myself), but I like feeling elite. And I hate when dumb people (Britney people) listen to good music and totally don’t understand/appreciate it enough. So I guess that’s my defense.</p>

<p>Amen, aderoberts, amen. And I do own Grace, great cd</p>
