Hello Sinister people, It is a particularly hot day today in the wonderfully dull area of central Illinois. I am leaving the area of cornfields and concrete in a few weeks, going out with a great sixties pop bang(getting to see apples in stereo and essex green twice:), but having enough feeling of unrequited love to take up a life time. When I first got into Belle and Sebstian, introduced to me by a friend who shall remain nameless, I was at a point of absolute social misery. I realized that people I knew and thought to be friends were jerks, and was left behind alone. The person who introduced me to them of course later became a good friend. Then as I became less miserable, I had this bad habbit of falling in love with people that I barely even knew. The fact that being introduced to a band in the music section of Barnes and Nobles represents a positive turning point in my social life is something of enigma even to me. So, now I am leaving in a few weeks with being educated for four years at some midwestern private university, and now I am begining to better know people that I should have talked to a long while ago, and that feeling of love is turning into one of just a need of a short term frienship before i go. I am begining to feel better that my love for some individuals went unrequited, and I am moving on once again. Silence to can be comforting. I am begining not to regret that inherant shyness that I have had since I was fairly small. There are those times in which a close circle of friends matters more. Though it is getting more painful to leave good friends behind. Now I know why I listen to B&S at times all alone... Off to Chicago and then Vermont, where winter will hopefully be kind to me. Sorry for this long semi personal letter, but I kinda felt it was necessary in some way. Sorry for saying sorry.
