Reenergized

I've been working fairly hard for the past couple of days, and am well on my way to actually finishing something i can be proud of. Goodness.

Next semester starts on the fourth, with my first bachelor-seminar. Whee.

Still completely blank regarding Design, which I am taking this semester, no information has been forthcoming. Bleh, I might just complain to the ministry of education, this is ridiculous.

On another note:

Metallica, last chance. The first album of yours I ever heard was Reload, which was an integral part of my teenage existence, and only recently, in the past few years, have I come to appreciate your "old" music. Needless to say, your earliest albums are now on my personal top ten list of best metal... ever. That being said, I don't hate any of your other albums. Not even St. Anger, I just don't listen to it.

But you pulled some seriously dumb shit back in the day, with the entire Napster incident. It has been a long while since then, and I've never really dwelled upon the issue, I've been to a few of your concerts, and they were good. Especially the one at Roskilde Festival, you know the one I'm talking about. That one was absolutely epic.

But it all comes down to the music. Most reviewers are ambivalent about the upcoming album, but not entirely negative. It's hard to live up to the legacy you've created, I know, but just... try to do your thing. Be Metallica again.
