Just a little thing that makes me feel good- when people want me to make the mixes :)
This past Friday night, I was at dinner with a big group of friends before heading to the movies. I met two new people that night (I love meeting new people)
On the way to the movies, as half of the group piled into the back of my car, I plugged in my iPod, and turned on the playlist for the event on the 19th (as of this past friday only had about 2/3 of the music it has now). As my friend, Becca, sat in the passenger seat and started jamming out and dancing (as much as you can while seated), one of the people I had JUST met an hour before just bursts out of her quiet and shy bubble, "You have GOT to burn me this playlist!!!!" I broke out in a huge smile. I loved it.
Today, (two days later), I was sitting on my couch with yet another friend who randomly just said "Make me a mix!... Please." So I did.
Every time I find a new song, I want to share it with someone, anyone! I usually do this by getting the YouTube link and sharing it on a person's Facebook wall, but tonight, I seemed to be running out of people! I LOVE the fact that sitting down in front of my lap top for HOURS on end finding, listening, and downloading music, is considered part of my ENGLISH homework! I love WISE!

ReplyDeleteEvaluation:
I've noticed in particular you are making HUGE steps in actually getting out there and being a DJ. I'm seriously impressed. So far, you have DJ'd two event and you have two more on on your plate that haven't yet happened. I think you should be very proud of yourself, you're keeping the big picture in mind and dove right in.
Question: In the beginning of your blog, you mentioned you wanted to host your own event. Is this still a plan? Or has the involvement in Erin's project sort of taken over for that?
Another thing I want to comment about is your involvement in Z95.5... (it's the end of the period... I will continue tonight.)
Marien,
ReplyDeleteI'm so thrilled that you are so stoked about your WISE project--it seems you are living and breathing it often. I hope you burn the playlists for your pals. ;)
