A little while ago jesse set out on an adventure to find songs that rocked her soul. I decided to partake in this journey as well. I love any excuse to listen to a whole lot of music. For this first one I wanted to find one that people wouldn't expect coming from me. People that know me would probably be expecting something from Elliott Smith or the Beatles. Well, not so fast. I pulled this one out. This song first came out about nine years ago and rocked the whole world. Everybody on this planet knows this song but that doesn't make it any less awesome or meaningful to me. It doesn't have to be something obscure or undiscovered. This is about the music. There is just something incredible infectious about this song and Every time I hear those first few notes and then the drums and vocals come in, I get tingles all over. I have heard this song well over a hundred times in the last nine years and everytime it still has the same effect. Thats what I am searching for in this journey. Now, the song you all know- "The Middle," by Jimmy Eat World.
Last night, we won our volleyball tournament and became the league champions! Can I get a woot! woot! ? We played awesome; everyone was totally on, and it was tons of fun. First and second place got t-shirts, but ours said "CHAMPIONS" on it. I'm just sad we don't have any more games to play.
