And now I pretend to be a music blogger...

To all of the faithful readers of "The Thrilling Life" (Emily, Hayley , and Paige) please don't hate me for what I'm about to do...

I'm going to attempt to be a music blogger. For my English 304 class I have to keep a blog with a unified theme going for the remainder of the semester. While sitting and pondering what I could write about for week and week without driving myself insane, I decided on music. There aren't many things in the world that I enjoy more than music. If I had to choose between television and music, I'd have to choose the latter. It's an artistic medium that leaves the interpretation up to the listener, and that's pretty neat.

I think anyone who's met me knows that I'm not the world's biggest fan of the hipster, however, I'm taking a page from his book. For the next couple months I'm going to find a new band, listen to an album or so worth of music, then write about it. I hope that you'll enjoy it at least a little bit. If any of you have any suggestions for bands for me to listen to, I'd love to hear them. I feel as though I've gotten stuck in a bit of a musical rut as of late and, though I feel like a damned dirty hipster, I think this project has the potential to expand my horizons and introduce me to some great new music.
