Few more exams until I'm essentially done with college. I've got jury duty in a little over a month (My first time). I know people talk about about how terrible it is, but I'm excited.

I think the most interesting realization I had this week was how close I am to music. I don't play an instrument (I sing a bit), but I love listening to it. I love seeing people play music. I love what music can do, how emotionally charged it can be, how it can change a person. To me there something weirdly mystical about the whole thing (forgive me I spent an hour or so last night listening to radioheads new single).

Music is mystical. It's why it stuck with humanity through thousands of years.

I know exactly how you feel about it. My headphones constantly transport some sort of audio signal when I'm at home. Can't imagine living without music, even less can I imagine living without good music. I'll wager a guess that not only music can inspire such an emotional response from you. Am I correct?

Yea, I moved by most art forms, and genuine expressions of emotion. It was weird as a kid I used to think I was a lot more cold and calculated, but I realized I'm an emotional mess.
