You plebeian

Before I went to boarding school I was like, “Wow, I better start listening to Bob Marley and Dave Matthews immediately.” I was clearly big on thinking for myself. To be honest, I grew up listening to Bob Marley—fuck Dave Matthews—but then listening to z100 got cool and I needed to get on that bus before I was the weird kid with the headphones.

I didn’t even know that the really cool kids listened to bands I had never even heard of. I mean the people that are like angry when you know the band they’re talking about: “Oh, shit, yeah, like everyone is listening to them [you fucking plebian], they’ve totally changed [you’ll never EVER know what they’re really like!]”

My new big thing is to get music from Gossip Girl. That’s why I watch. Nate and Serena are fucking for the millionth time and I’m just like, “Hmmm I wonder what that song is.” And then, if the end of the episode hasn’t been dvred properly I just got onto the CW website, see the names, and download it on itunes immediately and, if I’m lucky (which I always am) itunes will also recommend songs "just for me" and I’ll buy those too.

I look on music blogs now too since I’m such a fucking winner. I’m currently obsessed with this song.

  1. Hey Antonia, I remembered you're blogging and decided to visit. I was at a concert last night, and I know CSS decently, that song in particular, so I'm gonna keep reading in the hope I can relate to each one of your posts. What are you up to these days? Hope all is well.
