Primer Bloggers
Ugh! What a terrible week! I’m mostly kidding, but I’m happy that spring break — for my very small sector of northern New Jersey — has finally begun. Notable tokens of the past week include the continued greatness of Kate Chopin’s The Awakening, my school introducing new ultra-specific hall passes, and my (often) good friend Paul helping me out with the complex college process. Hey: last week I was experiencing feelings of indolence and confusion and I didn’t give y’all a Follow Friday list. So let me make that up and also dish out this week’s sweet brothers and sisters.
Make Up for Last Week!
undecided - Who isn’t following our opener on Twitter? And who doesn’t read her lengthy answers to her Formspring questions? I suppose “no worries” if you haven’t consumed any of the MissKimball brand yet — but start … now!
The Sounds They Make - Divine music tumblelog. John’s a terrific discoverer and writer. Also, he makes his own contributions to music. He had a track on an Erefutre compilation which is free and — I’m praying! — still available.
JaredXD - Creator of Zingle’d and upper-class tweeter Jared hasn’t updated his blog in about twelve years but he’s an Internet celebrity who deserves to be addressed formally and affectionately. What? Um, just follow one of stranger chat culture’s leading bros.
Word Journal - Infrequently updated blog about infrequently encountered words. Essential for at least 25% of my followers … who are probably already “rabid aficionados” of Word Journal.
Things I Ate That I Love - I’ve been an Emily Gould fan since my Web Design teacher read us — this is high school, damn it — “Exposed” and made us create websites with content related to that of her article’s. Y’all should follow her Tumblr if you don’t; And the Heart Says Whatever is in stores May 1 … I think.
Lovely Blogs for This Week!
Dead Writers Club - Don’t necessarily agree with its mission statement, but this blog is fun and informative. Ch-ch-check it out!
DAN METH - This is a profoundly talented man we’re dealing with here. I remember watching Channel Frederator shorts on my iPod a few years ago, laughing out loud at this man’s content. Oh, you must follow Mr. Meth!
Art/Music: Indie - I have an obsession with album art and this blog — which the cool Staff promoted eleven days ago — supports my fixation. The Pains of Being Pure at Heart have a new single coming out … heck yes!
catroulette - Please visit this site now. It’s finally “wearing thin” … and it’s one of the few single topic blogs I enjoy. Thank you. Meow.
Direction? - Stumbled upon this blog in a James Joyce frenzy, and it’s quite good. Lovers and dissenters, follow Hannah and enjoy her posts.
As I enter the weekend — and, let me rub it in your narrowed visages: spring break — I feel some malaise. Let’s brush it off and attack our surroundings, though. Time to study for the SAT and read a few novels. Relax and drink many cups of coffee. Express love for those people that commonly convert indifference into passion. You know? Have a wonderful weekend/life, followers!
