And I really like Indie pop/rock. Namely, Vampire Weekend who I got to see in Raleigh this past Sunday. Their show was a lot of fun and I didn't have the hairs on my head to equate to the number of plaid shirts, skinny jeans, and v-necks in the audience. Although I am not quite hipster, (understatement of this lifetime, I know), Vampire Weekend is top-notch in my mind.
Just a thought. Their song "Oxford Comma" hit on one of many of my grammar pet-peeves. An oxford comma, the comma used before an and or other conjunction in a sentence with a list of three things: Ex. I went to the store to buy an apple, banana, and melon.
(The last comma in the sentence.) Please use it, it will make me happier. Apparently Vampire Weekend, intelligent Columbia boys, (the university not the country) heard about a club that was trying to keep the use of the Oxford comma alive and they did not have this pet peeve as I do. Alright, nerdy Rachel is finished. Just some insight into my world. Use the Oxford comma as you now know what it is and it will take up that much more space in your essays.
I like
Senior retreat starting tomorrow. Should be fun. Pictures to follow.
