Noon Tune
De Nada Sirve Hablar

Evening Tune
Que Será
by Wax Tailor


It was a late morning. Maybe around 12 or 1 was when I finally rolled out of bed. I decided to fumble over to the kitchen to fix some grub, and then get to watching School of Rock. Picked up my sister 15 minutes late, and got her incredibly pissed at me in the car, asking incessant yet legitimately concerned questions. Came home, made a couple of grilled cheeses, and finished watching School of Rock as she slept. Pretended to work on the video while goofing off with music. The musicworks continued until that evening, at which point Pops called me over to watch Glee and American Idol. I ate dinner and continued with my musical nonsense, until late. When everyone went to sleep, I watched 2 Days in Paris by Julie Deply, and realized I've been watching really fantastic movies lately... I think I'm going through a renaissance. And, I love summers. Oh, also, I'm broker than a Sudanese woman pregnant with her sixth child. But everything will be fine! Will soon finish the birthday video.

Belly Danza

Mother's Day 2011 was brought on by a late morning and the spoils of the early breakfast that was. Yum yum ;)
Took a shower and watched SNL while I waited for everyone to get ready, and as soon as the moment came we took off to my nearly estranged aunt Tamara's house to visit my grandmother. Chilled wit mah scary ass cousins and ate some kind of fruit tart that was delicious. Came home again, and picked up some bathing suits to head out to Ale's house for a family getty-- the other side. Spent some time with my family, had the tasteful JC reunion, and canoed of sorts, out to the bay. Reminder: buy a canoe. You're wasting the top of your Pathfinder.
Spent some time dancing, drinking, eating, and in the pool, and tagged up a storm on Ale's Pandora. The family... something else I won't forget. Yes, future Rob-- this was the day your sister pushed you in the pool.

Sway
Rosemary Clooney & Pérez Prado

Hoy me la pasé escribiendo. Me levanté y escribí mi composición para Francia, después de haberme quedado despierto hasta las y tantas planificando los discursos para la misma. ¡Qué alarde, señores! El colmo fué llegar, y después de una asemblea media civilizada por primera vez, se destaca una chiquilla gritando, dejándome con sólo el remedio de arrestarla. Ahora, por ser buen presidente y seguir las reglas a cuales el pueblo mismo agradió al ganar la voz, hay rumores de asesinato. ¡¿Será que no se puede ganar con esta gente, o qué?!
Got some salad with Mileini, had a fun time talking about class and reading my very inventive paper. Salad! After that, we got in the death trap and she dropped me off at cycles. Rode to the car, one hand front brakes, one hand salad (a very dangerous combination). Went to get the tires checked and passed by Itito's. Chilled some, got schooled on not eating meat for lunch, and then came home to watch Charlie Wilson and transcribe poetry. Sleeping now, at 10. I will accept the following names: dweeb/scootch/lame-o. Good night, and good luck.

Te lo agradezco, pero no
by Alejandro Sanz

Today was New Year's Eve.. This post is a few days late, given, but it is commemorative nonetheless. This marks the end of the Sound's creation year! I can hardly believe it. Today was spent prepping for the New Year, assembling what might be our last party in this house, for now. Arranged tables and chairs, decorated, tableclothed and the like.
This song was played a few times, since I felt like it was the mood I wanted to be in. lol
I discovered apple remote, which I can connect to my new MacBook! It was great, and that's how we connected to the music later that night, and how we decided to test the waters for the party. Cross-referenced my "Mebbes" playlist, deciding whether or not to add some fusion to the otherwise Salsa assembly. There was definitely a playlist by the end of the night, including this one and tomorrow's song, and John Mayer's Slow Dancing In A Burning Room, Frank Sinatra's Auld Lang Syne, and New Order's Age of Consent, which was a last minute early morning Jam a little over five hours into 2011. There are pictures. This went down as one of the greatest times spent in this house. The party was great, and it reminded us most importantly of the great company we keep. They help us ward off all the fucked up shit the world also has to offer. We're a good core, and we'll have that no matter where we'e living. Take a look at some photos, watch a good movie, and go out and have fun!

Keep your head, keep good company, and be kind to one another.
HAPPY NEW YEAR FROM THE SOUND!
May 2011 rock.

Tu Amor Me Hace Bien
by Marc Anthony

Bought my presents and wrapped them in old magazine ads when I got home from work at around 8:00! Was late to Itita's but still had a ton o' fun with Renee and everyone else. Food was the same as every year, and we came to the realization that we've been doing nothing with our lives for the past year. It has flown by. It's funny, because at work a year seems like an eternity. At home, tough, it passes by quicker than I'd ever imagined. And that sucks.

Also, Rogelito loves Marc Anthony. Why? God knows.
