One of the things that was a major draw of moving to a big city was the proximity to music and the arts. Previously, I’d have to travel at least an hour to see a touring production or most concerts. I made the effort for shows that I really wanted to see, but not nearly as often as I would have liked.
Yep, I’m definitely guilty of not taking breaks even on the few vacations that I have.
So I guess there is good surfing in Austin…
Glad I was there to witness this!
Going through old tweets. I have no shame.
@keshasuxx omg. I want to pop everything for your music. I will shatter anything for you. And have.lockerz.com/s/222147592

Alisha Walker - “Global Challenges and Social Innovations”
This clip is very special to me because Alisha is a former student and a stellar example of how to be a good person. She is very much adored by her peers, and it’s inspiring to see her passion for her students.
This month I’ve got a pretty good mix of hipsterish goodness, reality singing competition tracks, pop-centric guilty pleasures, and a handful of club jams just in time for summer. Happy Listening!
Beyond excited to finally see Sara Bareilles on Friday in Austin! It’s also important to note that the stunning Rashida Jones directed the video.
Forgot how much I like Janet Jackson’s “That’s the Way Love Goes”
Happy Mother’s Day from Kid President!
After seeing my amazingly inspirational friends Aly & Martina in Louisiana last weekend, I’m making the effort to blog more. No promises about the quality, but I think I can post more than just movie trailers and random quotes. But not much more…
This video is set to part of David Foster Wallace’s commencement address to Kenyon College in 2005. It’s about understanding and recognizing the world around us to respond and empathize accordingly.
Amy Cuddy - “Your Body Language Shapes Who You Are”
Not usually one to post things like this, but it’s true about America today.
