This is my first post and i thought it would be fitting to give everyone a quick hello and an introduction…so here we go.
about me
My name is Donovan, i’m 21 and i’m not a writer. I was born in San Jose, California, but I moved up to “seattle” (federal way) at the age of 8 to have a “real” childhood and chance at life. I’m currently enrolled at Seattle Central for their Publishing Arts program and loving it. I have 4 jobs and only get payed at 3 of them. When i’m not working or in school i’m probably with friends at a show, dancing, getting a drink, or watching movies.
ps- I type the way i talk.
What I’m listening to
I like many types of music, but usually it either has to have good lyrics or a good beat. this is what I’ve been into lately:
- Le Corps Mince De Francoise
- Janelle Monae
- Santogold

It’s one of the bands that i fell in love when i first heard them. check them out, but be warned: it’s not for everyone

I recently found her on myspace as a featured artist. Her Album was released on Tuesday and she is currently #1 on the itunes R&B section

She’s been around for a while, but i’m only putting her up because she has a new music video =)
What I’ve Been watching
yesterday night i went and saw Boy A. I definitely recommend seeing it. It’s a film about a young man named Jack and what happens to him after being released from prison.
here is the link to the trailer. http://www.imdb.com/video/imdb/vi3555131673/
What I’m going to do
this weekend is going to be full of events and it begins on Thursday.
for those under 21 and want to dance to something else other than the stuff over at Neighbors, goto CLUB POP
