The concert was awesome.

More to follow.

I'll be watching Oasis play in about twenty hours.  It'll be my first time seeing them, despite having been a fan since 1995.  Their southeastern tour stops have been few and far between since I've been old enough to drive.  Atlanta has been the closest stop every tour (except some DC-area shows, about the same distance).  This is a bad time, but I couldn't pass them up on yet another tour.  I'm broke and have a lot of school work to do...luckily I bought the tickets back in February. 

This week would be ideal for a road trip, if it was affordable.  Oasis in Atlanta today, Coldplay in Atlanta tomorrow, Oasis in Baltimore Thursday, and Black Rebel Motorcycle Club with Mark Gardener (ex-Ride) in Atlanta Friday.  I even have a friend to stay with in Atlanta.  Too bad school and gas get in the way.

I've had some ups and downs since my last post.  The thing annoying me right now is money.  I've always tried not to complain about my family's poor financial situation, but in my college years it's become downright inhibiting, more so each year - you can't live life as you should be able to.  No vacations, very little in new clothes, my sister can't get braces, lapses in dental coverage, not being able to fix/maintain vehicles time after time.  We're bankrupt, yet we can't afford the $700 fee to declare it.  Starting October 1, it becomes much harder to declare bankruptcy, in favor of the creditors.

Anyway, the most immediate annoyance is gas.  I'm commuting to school now because my scholarships were only for four years and I can't afford an apartment/dormroom. On 9/9, I got a refereeing check for $150.  On 9/12, I got $100 for my birthday.  By 9/22, I had three dollars left (and still do, because I haven't gone anywhere).  What did I spend it on?  Gas and a handful of meals.  I got myself a t-shirt for my birthday.

I actually forgot about Xanga.  Sorry.

I'll post again soon.
