"Sao Paolo", by the Guillemots might just be my favourite song in all the world, ever. This was the anthem for my last semester of undergraduate work. I was hanging on for six more required credits and I had moved out of the house off-campus and into this gorgeous dormitory seated at the fringe of the quad. The rooms were like cloister cells, but they had these incredible beveled glass windows -- done cathedral style -- and the common room was like something out of a German prince's castle. I listened to this song constantly. To me, it's a perfect theme for autumn; there's something ghosty about it, a little melancholy, and a lot passionate. Plus, it's like, eleven minutes long. I love it.

Pigeon Guillemot?! Lol, we just got one of those in at the wildlife center a few weeks ago.

Did you? They're seabirds, right?

How's the new job going, anyway?

Yep, seabirds.

It is great, but sadly, I'm done at the end of this month. *le sigh*

Oh no! Well, at the very least, it looks like you've had some pretty cool experiences there. I enjoy going through your photo retrospectives. :)
