Besides Jack Johnson in my dreams over and over again *sigh*? I have to say one of the best parts of that show was the surfer film footage being projected onto the wall behind the stage. Together with the sunny tunes and thoughtful lyrics, it warmed me up real nice after a after a dreary day of snow!

The next time you find yourself at a show early may I suggest people watching to pass the time? It is great fun, bonus points if you can spot exact replicas of certain SNL characters, “drunkgirl” being my personal fave. The Jack Johnson crowd was like a walk through an American -clothing -company -that -LFO -gave -a -shout -out -to’s catalogue; chock full of college kids, beaded necklaces, trendy hats, fitted hoodies, and t-shirts emblazoned with logos of events that never happened like “rollerskaterama 1952″…at least that’s what I was wearing.

While we’re on the subject of watching- and in this media obsessed society when aren’t we- (pretty deep huh? Quick somebody get me some thick rimmed indie-rock glasses!) I checked out P.T. Anderson’s latest: Punch Drunk Love. The use of colour and music in this film is amazing. As is Adam Sandler. Which leads me to another great film that for some odd reason did not receive all that much critical acclaim: Billy Madison. Watch it, learn it, live it.

In other news, in a effort to procrastinate studying I have taken up yoga and baking. My mom has a killer recipe for banana date cookies. They are healthy and delicious but look like something a squirrel threw up. Try bringing those to the rice crispy square dominated bake sale..not fun.

Time to pass the torch to someone who knows all about good food.. Jar Jar?
