Headed to Houston's 2nd year at a music festival. Free Press Summer Fest however, doesn't hold a candle to my dearest Funx3Fest. A couple good bands mostly unknowns and locals with a few large headliners to carry the festival. It's a nice summer time festival that isn't over advertised and is fairly priced at $30 for the two day pass. It's at least a little something to tie me over while I...

I'm not quite sure if I can wait for next year's fest to come around. I need something for in the mean time. As a sort of bonding time, my little brother and I have set out to hit as many great festivals as we can. A costly feat I know, but I see it being my biggest expense at this time. So I guess the question is which are the best to check out? And how far am I willing to travel?? All will be...

...that I got the 10,000 points and got my PIP passes for next year. Then I guess my mom came in my room this morning and turned on CNN in my room. My dream then took a turn, I was at the festival and on the main stage was a debate over how Obama was doing and his foreign relations with China. Major buzzkill. Thanks mom. So suggestion to future festival line ups...no debates, not fun.

Still trying to crawl out of my debt hole made from this year's trip to the festival. Was it worth it? UMM YEAH! However that means everyones holiday gifts may not be what I had originally hoped to get them. Maybe now they will actually take so real thought. Luckily thanks to Decor It Yourself I have finally found some great DIY gifts. Not all homemade gifts have to be crappy. So if anyone...

Backstory...This is my first time back in school in a very long time. I was given a chance and I threw it all away. Now I have been given an opportunity that will not come along again and I have to take advantage of it. This has been the hardest yet best thing for me. I had to move 4 hours away from people I love and a city that I truly felt at home in. Hopefully with my dedication and hard...

All of you lovely guys and gals from my home town should come by Hester's Cafe. We have just opened the loft and I spend my days running like a crazy person up and down stairs. That, along with riding my bike to and from work is going to give me a Jesus-ish physique. So come on by and make it worth my while. Also, I have some interesting inside scoop about the possible starting up of an...

Sadly I wasn't able to see Josh Fadem perform this past weekend because I was too busy dancing/trying not to be trampled at Crystal Castles. I have seen him previously when he came to Austin with The DeathSet, Team Robespierre, and Matt & Kim. I digress, hes an amazing talent and is currently on 30 Rock...aka my fave show. Basically check him out of you get the chance or catch him on 30 Rock....

I attended day 2 of F3Fest 08 and I can say that I had fun. I will even go as far as to say that I did indeed have fun fun fun. I went with an old friends and mainly stayed at the black stage, which wasn't entirely my cup of tea. As I try to do with most situations I made the best of it and still had a blast. This year I attended with my little brother and boyfriend, 2 very dear people to...
